well...thats a huge rod shes got there...

Looks good...^_^

first of all, that's a nicely sculpted body, but I don't like how her face turned out at all. The join an her hair stands out a lot. The straps or whatever you call it she's wearing is quite unique in design. But it is too revealing for my likings. The figure stands out quite well though, I'm sure it won't be too bad when looked at from a distance.
Not not on my list to buy.

can't wait to get mine ^^

She's too ecchi, even for me.

Hmmm... Ironically, I was worried about the face when I saw Akiba Hobby's pics, but the pic that is impressing me the most here is the back of her against the cityscape. Eyes are a little plain, but the body is bangin. What to do, what to do...

Not so interesting, but LOL at the group pictures. For some reason my figures don't allow for such great combinations

She's missing a belly button?

Somehow I am not sad for having canceled my order. Not much fan of Yamato products, not enough fan of Ringo either... so, good to save money time to time.

First yuri picture with Rize is priceless! Symmetrical docking rulez. Fantastic! ^^;

me still a wanting a good simca figure
and then maybe agito/akito figure
danny you gotta watch the anime, all their moves are cool tagged along with a cool hip hop soundtrack...

Looks like a very nice figure, but maybe not something I would buy. The body is sculpted so nicley though I have to say.

Love the pics , great job , so funny ^^

And yes i canceled her , i'm really sad about the face :'(

Amazing figure. Does it have cast off?

Yeah, when I saw the Foobarbaz review, I felt some relief. Ringo is one of my favorite characters, so this would have to be really awful for me to cancel.

crescent-sama hehehe~ i'm disappointed that ringo isn't as wonderful as she looked before. I'm quite content to just view my beloved's own ringo rather than getting one since, well, her hair is the most disappointing part :/

i think she looks better with the bag on.

anyway the lads told me to drop the anime and go for the manga. i did and well, the drawing style is alright but the story seems to be lacking. or maybe it's just the quality of the fansubs. :-/

Hauuu, I thought she looked awesome in the preorder shots. She still looks good. Hair looks a bit grainy/rough. I wouldn't buy her anyways, too skimpy, I'm not brave enuff to buy a figure just wearing straps yet lol

looks nice but I perfer to buy nendroids...

If I do have the capabilities to buy this figure, I would definitely buy it! I see nothing wrong in her optical eyes and she is a great and sexy figure. I don't know much about the company Yamato but this could be one of their greatest figure they produced. She looks VERY ecchi but I don't mind buying her x_x

she seems ok. but i think I'll go for the kit so i can put in more detail. :P

Nice pics. But the figure is too ecchi for me:P

very, very nice, glad the post production does look good after all

ironies of life eh?

I ordered one a while ago. I know now that I wil not be disappointed...

Looks ace. It does look better than i initially thought the production version looked, but then i never thought it looked that bad anyway. Still kinda glad i cancelled my pre order ages ago though - im on a real strict figure diet now as i lack space, and i want that zen feeling of not living amongst clutter!
This figure is only really a 'must get' because it has so much flesh on display! It lacks the killer pose or charming character that i like in figures like mirei-san.

The only pre-order i have (and intend to keep!) is the FREEing Ryokou.

Thanks for the pics Danny, all of them look nice (Y). Just as I said a few days ago, I still want her very much and can't wait to get mine.

She definitely looks better than those scary Akibahobby pics, phew! Cancelled my preorder but reconsidering, reckon I'll pop by the local figure store to get a first-hand look to decide.

i would prefer that she worn something that was cast-off
just wondering, how's the feel of her eyes? they the real thing?

im a ringo fan*o*

Fantastic!!
Very comic the way she fights with Haruhi and Kyon!!

Well, I might consider getting it in Japan...next week...
It's not bad but the eyes are off...
Well, I'll get it when I see it...for my friend...

fantastico =D

It looks pretty good to me...I've been keeping up with the Air Gear manga...I think this was the outfit that was used to hide Ringo's identity but somebody replaced it with this erotic one so she's like "wtf?"
Never watched the anime. It ended too early so didn't bother.

According to your pictures, this PVC figure doesn't look that bad, although it isn't like its original. But not bad.

I have not seen the anime nor have I read the manga, I am very curious as to why she has that outfit on. Maybe Ill check it out sometime.

I've seen better, the prototype was way better but that's something we should be used by now with Yamato. This figure has some nice views of her face but it depends on which angle your viewing it like this one the 9th picture, she looks nice in there but from other angles she doesn't look that good. The mouth is very weird though but the body seems ok, the seam line on her head is really bad.
Completely shaved girls?! Now that's something we should not discuss here there must loads of minors here XD, I prefer natural down-middle area girls

Fantastico...excelente..

it's a shame that the face (an important feature) is a bit off :P! I'm pretty bothered by her mouth, it looks like a dirty paint streak ^^; (example: like me painting with a shaky hand ^^; )

I knew people were making too much of a fuss on the last post...
But anyways, I won't get it because:
1. Dunno Air Gear
2. Have other priorities right now

Hilarious pics Danny! XD

Kururu fan here so no Ringo for me >__>

Not bad at all but for me she's not a "must have" so i'll pass my way. Anyway, thanks for the review Danny.

I still build resin kits, but it's frustrating to see how expensive they are versus the PVC pre-mades. The sculpt on that Ringo is pretty nice, however- if I got a figure like that, one thing I could do is re-paint the parts I didn't like, and see what comes of that.

See, I KNEW it wasn't that bad :P I'm glad I didn't freak out and cancel!

Man, I wouldn't mind seeing a 3D wearing that. ^^;;;

Woot... still keeping my preorder. I'm going to have a tough time defending her from my coworkers (while still defending Kanu and Yoko) D:

It's ok, but I wouldn't like rush to get it now...still on my list though and am getting her because I like her character and am rooting for IkkiXRingo...

UGH! What happened to her hair? Ringo might as well have a gigantic hole in her head with that horrible looking seam line in her hair. Seam lines in the hair of figures turn me off real fast. It's an interesting figure with a nice sculpt, but the execution is so poor that there is no way I could justify buying this. I'll just read the manga or watch the anime if I want to get my Ringo fix.

Good design but bad execution.

Very nice, especially that picture with Rize :D

I like her but wouldn't buy ~ coz she shows too much!

Doesn't look so bad from the final product but still little disappointing that it looks different from promo pic. Wonder this figure will be sold-out everywhere?

LOL looks like you had fun with the figs~! :D

Hmmm... the strap on her crotch looks kinda, uh, weird. I think the average member's mind can fathom what said strap resembles, so I wont get any more detailed.

good thing i canceled my pre-order on this figure.
big thanks to danny choo for doing these reviews, without them i think i would have a whole bunch of unwanted figures :)

Thought you said you are not getting it? Can't resist her flesh eh? haha
Anyway I think this figure is ok except for the skin tone... it damn looks like a mini candy girl(no shading, no tone) when I 1st look at it... yucks

Still looks good & ill be looking up at her so i wont see the top of her head :) Can't wait to get mine.

Absolutely super beautiful!!
I wish to have one!

That's awesome, making it gorgeous to the final PVC fig. Ringo FTW.

i almost picked this figure but seem a bit too kinky for my taste...

Danny, I think what you like about this figure is it's "potential" not it's "reality". At least that is the way i look at it.

I like Ringo a lot but I hate this figure. But I would dislike this figure regardless of if the quality matched the pre-order pics, being a straight female collector I like my ladies a little more dressed.

Interesting poses for the last few pictures ^^

Agreed I like that angle as well. Well it definitely looks better than I thought it would, so I will be reconsidering it. I just can't get past that joint in her hair. Don't the people at Yamato think about these things. Right now I have other figures that I want...

Personally I enjoyed the manga. I found the anime to be average. ^^;

I've not seen or read Air Gear yet, but I love some of the character designs for it. This figure, however, seems to suffer from 'too much really is too much.' Also, the bag accessory for her head creeps me right out.

I guess perspective and environment DO make a difference.
But I don't have any captions to offer. The images alone had incapacitated me with laughter.

LOL at lelouch and kyon! hahah. I'm glad I didn't get it. The face was a huge factor in my decision to get it really. I noticed the hair turned out a bit rough.

My thumbs up to Oh! Great for the series, my thumbs down for making a figure that doesn't meet Oh! Great sensei's artwork.

i bought this today because it was cheap ^^
only cost $500 hk thats like ummm... i dunno >.< but definitely ceaper than 6800 yen ^^

Ringo she looks a good.

A goddes on roller- skates... I WAAAANT! But I can`t find a place to order yet.

I actually thought the optical eyes were spot on. I would definitely recommend the anime, great action, story and ecchi and has a soundtrack to die for.

lv air gear and im want buy this doll you sell in ebay ?
But I can`t find a place to order yet!!
im from mexico and say HI!! :P

just got mine a day back. the optical eyes do look different from the promo pics though, but she's not a total disappointment. She's lovely to look at. Couldn't get my eyes off her for a few minutes ^-^ Glad i took the courage to pre-order her.

What I really like about this is its sexy contrast with Ringo's true character.

Well... I was just going on into a rant about Ringo, but some people might not have watched Air Gear. :P

However, the Queen of Sonia Road is a babe.

I've seen Ringo in person a few days ago and I am seriously considering on getting her~ :) She's too hot to pass up~ :D

I just got back home(Canada) from home(Philippines) with 5 figurines in tow, one of which is Ringo. I'm pretty happy with her ^_^

waw i can get into loads of trouble if i had one of them curvy figures ^^

actually she is way to sexy
but have her anyway

people ask me questions when thay see her
and not normal questions

I am not into 2d girls
just like figures

wish i can have her.....

Too sexy...

can that even be possible?

too poor, otherwise whoulda bought her in a heartbeat.

Its a wonder how they do those things. Does anyone know how to get a figure custom made? maybe a company that does them?

She looks nice from far away. I guess it looks nice in general. Probably my least favorite part of this figure is the hair. The flow is okay, but the paint and edges look kind of rough.

oh man i want one... so... bad now... =(

really hard to find Ringo these days...

It's really hard to find Ringo these days? I guess it was a good thing when I saw her on the shelf months ago and through "$115? meh" and proceeded to buy anyways.

shes too hot for my collection >__<

saw your pic. and know how to use that pole XD

this is defo one of the best figures made.
props on the ecchi-ness.

hi guys,
i just bought this 2 days ago.
i just wanna know how to tell if my ringo is genuine? i saw it is made in china
im just curious, coz im new to the animé figure collecting. :D

=D i bought it at my last convention, and it was worth it imo, seeing as how it is the only air gear figurine i can find in America =P

how much did you get her for?
