シャイニング・ウィンド エルミナ

Few hundred or not, I can't say I'm a huge fan of that black Widow. Something about the face bothers me. The Kotobukiya Elmina figure is absolutely beautiful, though. Any idea on the price range?

Want. she is gorgeous! Love the long hair!

Thats a really nice figure, where is the character from?

Danny-kun endorses koto products now, too? ヾ(ﾟдﾟ)ﾉ゛

OH HOOO~~~

so cute

Figures and Macs, two of my favorite things in the world.

nice..when will i get my hands on those thingie....

Elmina is just LOVELY,its just that...i dont really like Black Widow..the face,its not real,the hair.its short.

Nice figure almost gave me a nosebleed wished that I can get three copies of it.

Hohoho keep those SAFS flowin!

omg, an exclusive Yelena Belova figure!
how awesome is that!?

A exclusive Yelena Belova (leader of the current thunderbolts)figure!! OMG, Danny, you should keep this with care! I'd do it for you if it's too much of a burden for you to keep her safe :D

Yay for Shining Wind! Never played any of the games but I love Tony Taka's character designs and art style :D

Also what involvement would Apple have at a Tokyo FIGURE Show? Or would they just be more of like a sponsor? ^^"

Ho ho, very nice figure, though you should have participated in arm wresting, i'm sure the storm trooper dancing has built you muscles! This website.. is putting holes in my pockets.

Shining Wind, I played a bit but didn't complete it.

The Black Widow art on the box looks better then the figure.
Somehow the pictures look grainy on my monitor.

Elmina's face is quite cute ^_^

Wah limited edition Black Widow T-T Looks pretty cool with the short hair. Hope to see her outside the box soon ^_^

Limited ed Black Widow!!! waaaaahhhh I am so jealous!

why is the shunya black widow have a different hair than the picture?

not a big fan of ff style figures, but must admit that this one is well done and cute.

Elmina figure is amazing.

elmina is beautiful but for some reason her face doesn't really strike well with me.
that black widow even disturbed me more with that face.

Its been a looooong time since Danny had a Figure review ^^ .

Also , I miss Danny taking photos of his figures with a sunset background .

Elmina looks well made and her face is lovely. Also love the colors.

Macs and figures sound like an odd combination for a show. Might end up with a bunch of people that only stay to one side, as I know I would.

Black Widow fail. nuff said!

Wow... another great figure.
I like the facial sculpt very much.
Since I sculpt figure heads, all these I consider research material. hehe...
Thanks for the large pics~

I want one ^_^

The prototype looks better to me. I think it's something in the face or eyes..

Pantsuuuuu. thats a nice little figure.

oh, take off the cloak and she look a lot..... smaller xD
kawaii x.x
me want, but I won't be able to buy figures until the end of this year, I guess....

not surprised with tony taka figures.
that black widow not good i think look at her face !!!

Ohh sweet, I used to play the Shining Wind game =] Nice figure.

Elmina is just amazing! i want her ^0^

Elmina, Blanc and Ryuna would go soooo well together.
Sadly I'm drained for the months to come.

Elmina is a nice-looking figure indeed.

Such a cute figure

I dont remember seeing her in Shining Wind series....

I like the original Black Widow, but not sure about this one....maybe seeing her out of the box would change my mind?

The Black Widow figure doesn't match the likeness on the box at all...midriff exposed and short blonde hair on the figure vs. no midriff but serious cleavage and long red hair in the image.

Only Danny can combine a show with figures and Macs. True Danny style. :D

OMG she is on my want list a think i saw here on amazon a while back.

I think I saw her on a preview page before!!! (gets excited when she sees things she recognizes XD) The first thing that stood out to me about her was the color of her outfit, I'm in love with that mint green <333

She lives up to the expectations...but somehow...she looks kinda dark to me...or was the lights to blame?...

There are too many PVC for Shining series...Not enough money to get them all

Greetings ~

For me ~ Elmina is ok.

I am not too keen on the *add exposure of flange?* ~ the edges ~ along the hairline, and the paint job looked diminished somehow... subdued in a way ...maybe it's just me and/or maybe the lighting?

Black Widow...

She appears to be a completely different person within the box, verses what is imprinted on the outside. o.O?

1. Face is no issue for me ~ but (does) looks more rounded?
2. Hair is short, and in addition, is a different colour? ~ why?
3. The uniform/clothing differs...

Could this be a reason why its a limited Edition, because if the variants in the style and appearance?

Just wondering... why the deviance from the original character?

The Elmina figure you received seems to be in its rough stages with the colors being flat and the hair and face looking overly plastic and with an expression like a zombie.

I agree with other's, the black widow figure does not resemble the one on the box and would lead one to think that the factory had made a mix up in the packaging, that aside the figure does look good but has a soccer mom face to a point.

Very nice! hope to see more reviews ^^

Never played Shining Wind so I don't really care even if it's by T2. But the Black Widow figure looks like it's by Shunya Yamashita (or something close to that).

Shining wind Elmina looks very nice! well sculpted and painted indeed, but i have other figures to get first before this one ^0^

I'm loving everything about the Elmina...but..the face, it seems awkward with the rest of her. Maybe if she had a more defined smile and slightly different eye shape, so as not to have such a bland expression. ^.^

The Black Widow..no thanks. :P

I think Shining Wind Elmina is cute and would fit well with the others but she is not particularly noteworthy on her own.

Black Widow looks like a huge disappointment. Would be pissed if I preordered her.

Really love this figure, her skirt is kinda weird though..

Awesome figure ^_^

Mmm. Elmina looking good, but the pictures seem a bit grainy to me...

I like your desktop background. :D

As a side note ( XD ), the figure's colors are well done indeed, but the flare of the figure seems too well-polished for me. I'm a bigger fan of sharper lines and angles; maybe that's why her hair just doesn't do it for me.

NOT A FAN OF BLACK WIDOW~ BUT LOVE THE ELMINA!! ^^,

I better be careful not expose what behind her if I buy it, living with parents are not easy

Hehe cute pose of Elmina. :)

I really like her outfit...

Elmina is nice, but the way it's painting makes the color look faded...yea not a big fan of the black widow either...

Elmina looks so innocent.

Hmm...not regretting skipping the preorder on Elmina, but might reconsider once I see her in person. She looks like she'd match well with my other figures, and I do like the Shining Wind costumes.

Apple + figures. Oh wow. That's like a explodrgasm of awesomeness.

I like the Elmina fig. very cute. Black Widow, on the other hand, looks like a "fail" from DeskMates. (oska.com) face-wise, anyways.....(if you go to deskmates, see Tahni, the resemblance is there)

w00t she looks jut as lovely as in the anime ^^ =3

Awwww... I pre-ordered Elmina, but from Danny's photos, I dunno.... It's kinda different to the concept figure, and the coloring is a bit too gray-ish... Might decide not to get her in the end... let's just see when the figure actually arrive at my usual store...
