Wonfes and a mild picspam

So Miku Append is Figma #100.  I like her design until I get to her feet, unfortunately.  And it seems they decided to close the shirt.  Meanwhile, Nendoroids of Etna and Flonne and Figma and Petit Nendo Madoka.  This is going to get tough.  I'm rather curious as to what Max Factory is planning by doing ROBOCOP.  Going straight up against SciFi Revoltechs?  This will get interesting.  Figma Strength looks better than the last time there were pics, think it was still unpainted then.  I guess I need to wait for more pictures before deciding on the Figma or the Nendoroid of her, because now the Nendo doesn't look as good as it did at first...  White Rock Shooter looks rather insane, God damn.

Someone pointed out that the Cirno Nendoroid is the 9th Touhou Nendo.  Awesome.  But I want moon people.

Some line I've never heard of before, called Riobot, seems to be trying to make a name for itself.  Jehuty, Anubis, ZOE Vic Viper, and the Transformers versions of Panty and Stocking.  Have to keep an eye on that.  And speaking of Panty and Stocking, figures of them in their angelic pole dance forms.  That can go together on the same pole dance stand, it seems.  That's going to be rather tempting.

Freeing's making a figure of Makoto.  More BlazBlue is welcomed, but their Rachel isn't that great looking...

So much stuff that I probably can't have!  Seems there's still some news and pics to wait for, too.  But it looks like all the GSC has been covered so far.  None of the stuff I was rather hoping for, like Hidamari Sketch stuff or a GSC Saber Extra in the style of their other stupid awesome Sabers.

Something I've been thinking about doing, since starting this inane blog and even more when I started screwing around with the myfigurecollection thing, is whether I should occasionally dig up something older and take a bunch of pictures of it, particularly if it's something I don't already have a bunch of pictures of.  I also keep thinking that a lot of my older "New Arrival" posts are actually really shitty and I should replace/remake those with better posts that have more talking and much, much more pictures.

Maybe I could start some demented project to try and "review" my entire collection, bit by bit.

Or I can drive myself to the edge of sanity and try to do one hundred picture challenges for every thing like I did with Diablo.

So I ended up taking a few pictures of a Morrigan figure I have, and ended up thinking of these things, so I figured I'd take a few extra pictures and maybe blab a bit.



Althought unfortunately I decided to press forward with using my Coolpix for the pictures, and the Coolpix is a piece of trash.

The Morrigan in question is just Banpresto's prize figure.  It's pretty alright, but does have a few quirks.  I'm starting to think Banpresto likes odd arm positions, as Morrigan is doing who-knows-what with her arms, kinda like how Menace was also doing something that couldn't really be identified.  The oddest thing about the figure, though, is the rest of her pose.  She's leaning heavily to the side for some reason, a stance that a normal human probably couldn't hold for more than a second without falling over.  It does seem to emphasize her delicious curves, but it also makes Morrigan look like she has a terrible case of the Leans.  Which, thankfully, she actually doesn't.  My other main annoyance with the figure is her wings.  They kinda get in the way and have a tendency to get knocked off.  I thought about gluing them in place, but being able to remove them seems to useful.  I think I would have liked it if they were spread a bit more, instead of sorta curling around her legs.

I do rather like how it looks like her boobs are in the process of spilling out of her clothing.  Too bad the figure isn't of this pose "a few moments later after a clothing failure".


Hmm.  I guess those previous two photos are pretty much the same thing.  These close-ups really make the seam lines on her stand out more, sadly.

I thought this was a neat angle with her face.

Did I mention the curves?  Because they are curved.

Nyoro~n

Gets in Morrigan's face rather nicely.  The way her mouth is shaped is rather inviting for errant things.

I think we're safe this time, Admiral.  Possibly.

edit:
Good job, MFC!
