秋山澪 フィギュア

I prefer the Kotobukiya Version.
She looks a little more Mio-like in my opinion and the original outfit is just cute and sexy.
But would love to see a Mio figure with her "Don't say lazy" outfit

I perfer the Kotobukiya version over the Alter version but i more rather a Kotobukiya version of Yui and a figure of Azu-nyan. Seriously when are anyone gonna make a figure of Azu-nyan, i already have preordered every Yui figure currently coming out soon

I'm torn between the two. I like Alter's sculpt quality and proportions better, but I prefer Kotobukiya's outfit design. In the end though, I'm not budging until I see a Don't Say Lazy outfit =P.

The Kotobukiya one makes Mio's face look younger, but I still prefer Alter's version...

This version looks better since it's not the standard outfit...imo

Tough call. They both capture her spirit well....hmmm.
Both crafted well... Guitars are good.......
Would have to go with fashion style for final decision....
OK...I can't choose.

They are both beautifully designed figures... But I think I'd go with Alter.

Being more clothe on the alter version, it's sexy.

prefer alter's but i accidentally voted kotobukiya in the polls. >.<

hard to choose, both also ok to me.

I prefer the clothing design on the Kotobukiya... but there's just something off about the way her eyes are. So Alter wins in general.

The Kotobukiya Mio looks like Yomi in this pic:

XD

i prefer this one,but something doesn't look right :/..same with Alter

Eyes look strange in the first pic. Whatever the case, I'd go with School uniforms anyday.

(...and also Yui.)

I think Alter's Mio looks closer to the anime, but obviously Kotobukiya's clothes are much more fun and appealing.

I'd get both of them ^^

Alter's one for almost being most similar to the anime series.
Kotobukiya has some nice clothes. but the face doesn't look Mio enough.

Yomi~❤❤

They're actually both really appealing, if only they combined Alter's sculpting and Kotobukiya's outfit together, better yet release the 'Don't Say Lazy' Mio. Already pre-ordered the Alter version though :) Hopefully they'll have an Azusa figure out soon.

Kotobukiya sure knows what I like... *stares at thigh highs*

Oh, these new photos that I haven't seen before actually improves my impression of the Koto version. I still prefer the Alter one though.

I chose the Kotobukiya version for the poll,
although I will most likely be getting both versions anyway. :P

As for my analysis of the two figures. The Kotobukiya one's face does look slightly
different from the way it looks in the anime. But regardless of that, still cute.
The reason I like this version more is because of the style ofher clothes,
and the fact that she's using her fingers to play the bass instead of a pick,
as seen on the Alter version. XD

Both are excellently crafted/painted. I've always loved how Alter and Kotobukiya make
their figures. Tough decision to make unless you decide on getting both. XD

Alter!!!

While it's not instant preorder for me (good decision as I get to buy it cheaper with AmiAmi + SAL), I keep getting back to it until I finally give in.

This one does not look right for some reason >_<!

wow that looks really good they did a nice job making her , i havn't seen the anime maybe i should watch it sometime

it's probably just me but the face on the Kotobukiya one looks weird. it could just be the angle too.

the dress is the saving grace for this figure. other than that its pretty bleh

While I think this figure looks okay, I still prefer Alter's Mio because of the paint, detail, and pose. I think her hair "flows" better in the Alter figure, too.

Kotobukiya. Even though the Alter one is of higher quality.
This looks a bit more right than the Alter version to me, though not perfect.

I like both! but too me, when i thing on buying a figure, is really a matter of being able to make a set! Alter has already released 2 characters out of the main 4, what about Kotobukiya? do they have plans to release the other characters?!?!

by the way, i DO like Alter's translucent/transparent base! depending on the character's pose it really give you the illusion that the figure is up in the air!

I'm going to have to go against the tide of opinion here and say Kotobukiya's version is much better than Alter's. I like the way Kotobukiya/Movic produced the face and especially the eyes. They look more like Mio's proper facial features and expression to me than Alter's version. There was something that instantly made me dislike Alter's one, but I couldn't figure out what it was until now. It's definitely the face shape, her eyes, and the mouth (something really fake about it) and the sum total just really didn't look like Mio to me. I'm not sure about the accuracy of the guitar, but I LOVE the refreshing outfit. I know it's not the traditionally recognized one, but I'm sick to death of drab schoolgirl outfits and have never bought any figures with boring poses or boring outfits. The splash of red in the tie is perfect and the layered skirt is very cute! =^_^=

I like neither Koto's or Alter's. They both lack something that would make me love either one of them. :C

I like the outfit on this one!

I like this one way better than Alter's version due to possibility of leaning and the face just doesn't look right.
Love the outfit on this one but I'm no K-ON! fan so..probably not going to get ^^*

Damn it! It's so hard to choose from the two! Gladly I did not and haven't ordered the Alter version, only Yui though. I would choose of both of them!

Prefer the face on this one to the Alter, but overall, think the Alter has the edge.

i prefer this one,but...her face reminds me of that tarako thing..>.<

BOTh of them not looks like mio !! >_<

Mio face look a bit different in this one

I'm quite impartial to the Les Paul in the Alter version, but overall I think the Kotobukiya one looks nicer, definitely.

I prefer Alter's but this one is quite nice.

ブキヤの方が原作よりのデザイン。に見える。今の表紙なんかそっくり。
どちらも良く出来てると思うんだけど、アルターの方が売れるんだろうね。

alter's.cos mio looks abit to chubby lol....

Pre-ordered both. If it comes to colour, face and pose, the Alter Mio beats Koto Mio hands down.
Therefore Koto Mio's clothes look even more awesome.

Where's my Mio/Yui figma already? ;p As for the question, I like the Alter version better because I LOVE school uniforms ^^ Sure, Mio looks older in the Alter version but I like this. Still would love to see a blushing face of Mio though.

Personally, I think both are fantastic; either would do IMO.

I like this one strictly for her clothes, there's something about her face...

I preordered the Alter one a few months ago (along with the Alter's Yui fig), so I'm kinda biased in that. Though I like Alter's better because she looks alot more cheerful on it, and her wearing her school outfit feels alot more like it represents the anime. But yeah, that's just my opinion.

Hmm...something doesn't work for me...alter for me then....

Looks cute but I'm already getting the Alter one, so skipping this. Plus, the Alter one looks better to me. ^^

Something is really wrong with this figure's facial expression. I'd prefer Alter's version.

I like this one better.Maybe its because I dont like the K-On school uniforms.

Hm, I like both, not a big fan of Mio though.

I like this one better, the face in particular. I like how her mouth is closed... suits Mio more.

I like the Kotobukiya Pose much better. But The Alter outfit, and bass look much better.

But I still love Yui more Mio. :P

I like both Alter and Kotobukiya Versions of Mio. If I had to pick one I get the Kotobukiya Version because of the outfit.

Hard choice but I'm leaning more towards Alter's version.

This is a sexy fig, but nothing comes close to my Nayuki Minase! I'd have to say I prefer this one though to the Alter version.

I like both, my only problem with this one is that she's looking at the base not me.

Simply beautiful

Those FMBs!

Approved!

No brainer for me...Alter's version is miles better in every aspect.

the face looks funny to me
does not look like mio

ohhh! I like this one!
She's a lot cuter than the Alter version, in my opinion (^_^)

Both are nice as long it's Mio :p

Just preordered at HLJ, I like the look of this figure! Much better than the other ones I've seen. Let's hope I can keep a hold of enough money to buy it now...

The Kotobukiya version looks much more Mio-like...

I like the Kotobukiya one for using a unquie costume but, you can't go past the classic Alter School uniform, it suits mio to well. Also, the Kotobukiya one has a kinda wierd face.

Tough decision... Get both!

hard to choose. I'll have to wait till release and see the final product myself and at the same time hope that there will be stocks left for whichever I'm gonna get.

But based on the models alone I would prefer the Kotobukiya version.

This is the better figurine in my opinion. But would prefer the original outfit ^_^;

Not a fan of kon but the sculpt and colors are nice
