My goodness that Dark Elf is one fine lady. Nice pics of Rize in the mage outfit though! Very cute :D

I used to play Lineage 2, I was a female human archer... I remember I could see my character's pantsu when she ran^^;...
And the figures look reasonably priced!

Definitely some interesting detailing and embroidery on those figs. But like Danny, they aren't quite my type. LOL ^^

Thats a weird castoff feature...Id make sure that my figure has pupils when i make her castoff.
I really like her armor on Rize^^

Mine shipped today ^^, can't wait it's my first figure :D
Poor Sorcs, Aura Flare got nerfed along with Cancel. The only redeeming thing about them is that Fire Stones are the most common stones....and even that's a double edged sword.
The cast off feature is undermined by the lack of features IMO.

nah. I play 'em a lot.
Although, when I tried to recreate Claire from "Claymore" on Oblivion, it never comes out right. I can't give her blonde eyes, there's only one hair style that even comes close to it, and I can't wield a claymore with one hand. (though I did have more success recreating Afro Samurai)

i have played Lineage II many moons ago and i must say is really good. not sure actually how does it fare when compare to final fantasy XI and also WoW. But one thing's for sure, online gaming can be very2 addicted when you start to play them.

They are superbly detailed figures but not cute and anime enough for my liking. And no pupils on the eyes? Wth?
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/
Pretty close to my feelings, gorgeous figures that I'd enjoy having, but not would not buy in lieu of regular style figures.
Too bad about the pupils ^^;

Very nice figure, though not my type of figure either. But as you mentioned, the details are stunning. Perhaps I will think of getting her and Dark Elf if I have the spare cash.
http://yuuwaku.wordpress.com
mmm waitin for her to ship. She looks good casted off :P No niffles are a bit weird, but understandable since her breastplate is pretty thick already...

DARK ELF (f) = PURE WIN!
Gotta love the details they gave to that figurine plus the tones are just the right pinch.
Dropping computers, starting all over again at Journalism
http://xspblog.com
Not my type of figure too, but if I had to elect one, it'd be Human Mage... liked the details.
But one thing bothered me... is her left leg like that? All reflexive shiny... is that a character detail?
Student
That caught my attention too seems like a prosthetic leg but I don't mind anyway, her facial expression, hair and eyes(upper ones lol) is good enough for my liking.
Student, Uncle & hopfully a good husband..
Human Mage...She looks kinda familiar to me...Pretty with a sense of familiarity...
Student
Nice quick review:) Like the dark elf a little more than the human mage, but both aren't exactly my taste.

looks like Ashe from FF12 ^_^;

Before I was wondering how many people would buy this
but I didnt know it was cast off able, I think a lot of people might want it when they find out

http://otakuposts.blogspot.com/
both human mage and dark elf look good. wonder why no pupils were done. at least they could have painted a bra on her if they didn't want to show her naked.

dark elf seems nicer to me.. but when put together my taste shifted to human mage.. but rize looks quite nice with the mage clothes.

If the dark elf wasn't orange I'd prefer her. But Human mage wins today.

Lineage 2.....awesome MMO,one of my favorite games, im still playing it on and off and have been for about 4 years :P
I love the graphical style of L2. If anyone is interested more in the artistic style of the game you should check out "Hyung Tae Kim" he does some really awesome artwork.
As a game L2 is extremely hardcore, especially compared to other mmo's specifically WoW. On your own its pretty boring and you soon loose interest, but if you get a group of friends together its the most fun you'll ever have :P

Not a fan of realistic looking figures...
I do love the way you put the Shuraki head...
Doesn't it break if you take the head off or something, I'm afraid to do that...i feel figures are so fragile...

Wow, Human Mage is lovely.
I'd have to look for one; she's one of my dream types. ^_^
Hobby fan
I can say Human Mage is a beautiful figure but I like Dark Elf Female the most.
(anyway... I wasn't able to get one of them, mostly because the "size" of my wallet ¬¬ )

nyohoho can't wait for mine! cast off w/no pupils doesn't really make sense to me though... unless you're making custom armor for her or something? or is it necessary to remove her top to get the skirt off? well, at any rate i'll be displaying her with everything on... half the reason i got her was for the detailed armor

A Little Question, Danny...
Why in the hell did GSC decide to make this lineage 2 character cast-off able, while Lala from To love Ru is not cast-off able.... and here I thought, the genre is quite obvious.
Student
http://andreijournal.blogspot.com
I vote the original.
And Danny, good luck again for your meetings! :D You have a tiring week I guess, but, ganbatte! :D

Now I want to see GSC do World of Warcraft figures. The current ones Blizzard licensed look rather weird, to the point where I actually decided to make my own night elf rather than buy one. >.>
Wonderful looking figures, both of them. Also surprised the L2 figure is cast-offable, wonder if the company behind L2 is endorsing this sort of thing?
???Confused???
the details are real nice, but it's not my cup of tea...the armor looks nice on Rize and Airi though...
Security Associate
wow the non colored nipples on the human mage is a dal breaker for me....why have her be castoff is she isn't at least painted underneath?
To bad, I gotta call pass on this one.
And I was looking forward to her too =(

That dark elf figure is still on my to get list even after months after it was released. I hope you can ask GSC that they produce another run of that figure again. ^^
I'm going to go with the dark elf :O she's got nice curvs
working to pay for figures etc.

Only one thing wrong with the mage, her bra looks too hefty - one instance where it would have looked better moulded in, like the Dark Elf.

So do you not show nudity anymore on this site?

r all of cast-offs too?
just wondering if u could maybe include a shot of future figures in box next time. Am saying that cos somestimes after seeing a figure i like, i'll go to the shops n i can't exactly remember how it looks like cos most of the figures atthe shop r inbox. i know u can see through the box but still....;)

Lol, were the cast-off a nice surprise Danny?
I like the Human Mage, though I'd keep her with the armour on, unless I wanted a reference for a drawing xD;
I was attracted to Lineage II by the lovely artwork. When I discovered it, not many people had known about the game yet. The only problem was my computer's not exactly game-worthy ^^;
The human mage is nicer than i thought she was gonna be
i don't care about the castoff on this one but that's a nice bonus
Still (and will always) prefer the dark elf, that figure is just ... perfect, i guess ...

Implementation Analyist
God. I thought the Human Mage was great when I first ordered it, but when compared to the Dark Elf.... I'd get that too in a heartbeat! Too bad it was sold as a limited release, would love to get it in a general re-release. That's one of the reasons that I sometimes wish I was living in Japan instead.
Merchant
Every time I see more pictures of that Dark Elf I feel more sorry for myself, why such a great figure that everyone should be able to get has to be LE but no they decided to massively produce that human mage instead which is ok but has nothing to do with the beautiful Dark Elf.

I've really gotta get me the mage figure it just looks great.
Software Developer
I just received the Dark Elf female... needless to say it's a superb figure. Don't care if her skin isn't dark elf hue, the pose alone and the details are so top notch that they put several of my other good figures to shame. It occupies a top spot in my detolf and it's not likely to move for a very long time, that's for sure.
The price sucks when you're getting it from a reseller who's jacking it up way past what the original price was, but I did it because I really, really wanted the figure.

I thought I didn't need a Macro lens when I talked about this figure, but after looking at your pix Danny, I think I might have to buy one. Too bad I can't find a compatible lens in the local second hand market for my dslr :( Given the global economic conditions, I didn't really wanna shell out full price. *sigh*
