The pic you showed is probably a production sample from the company that made it (Atelier Sai) the actual product being sold may differ a bit.

Sure, I'll try to get some pics of my BBGC figures. One thing to note though, I bought mine at Festival Supermall(I only managed to snag three, my wallet fell short ^^ , and they dun have panel lines. I dunno, bootleg? Maybe it's the only explanation as to why they're relatively cheap(500 petot on something THAT gorgeous is a robbery I tell you!)...unless of course the final version removed the panel lines. Anyway, I'll try to get some pics and post them here for comparison

I can confirm they're not bootlegs, I bought a set myself. They have AIC license stickers. (click to view larger pic)

yup i bought 4 of them....all with an AIC....hologram i think. just 4 comments... there are paint inconsistency, some joints are loose so you have to glue them, no black panel lines, Face are a bit pale. bought the whole set at 450 pesos each.... probable price for a bootleg since its being sold for around 40-50 dollars each abroad, but i like the figure...happy I bought them. If youre going to buy maybe one or two...i recommend getting priss(dark blue) or Linna (green)... since the colors are a bit dark you wont notice paint inconsistencies unlike the light blue and light pink figure.

saw these yesterday. i actually thought they were bootleg coz of the very low price (compared to yamato release) and the loose joints and lackluster paint job. but the box did have the alter sai logo onit so it is indeed real. too bad for quality control but it is pretty cheap so who can complain right?

I personally prefer the black square base over the round prototype which looks like a generic CM's trading figure base. It's a space saver as well.
The QA prob may be the reason why it didn't sell well and why it's showing out now with very low prices. The Mai Otome action figures w/c uses the same technology (S-A-S) are also not selling well. It's SRP is twice the cost of Revoltech action figs.

Eh, the mai otomo figs are still expensive, compared to these babies anyway.
Still, like I said, if loose joints are the ONLY problem for these figures, I'd just fix it via super glue.
The only gripe I have for these figures aside from the loose joints is the inability to move the arms for more than 20-30 degrees to the side. Sure, the shoulders are balljointed, but it's made in a way that it can't raise it's arms sideways.

I just bought all four a couple of weeks ago and though they're nice overall, I have several gripes:
-The Nene figure has one of her antennas bent the wrong way. I thought it was just a defect on mine but I looked at all of the stock and they had the same defect.
-The material used is too soft, so soft in fact that when I attached them to their stands, some dents were formed.
-Part of Priss' right leg armor is exactly the same as her left leg. Though not noticeable from afar, it becomes evident if you move in closer.

Amazing articulations. I saw a reasonably-priced complete set in Greenhills.
