Update 2: Rei, Rei, Rei... Kaiyodo is cloning her... it's the 3rd Revoltech of Rei but simply the best to date... articulation wise it still has the Fraulein-type body with killer long legs and a$$... the best feature for me is the smiling face... Rei looks cute in that expression... if you happened to have the 2 earlier vers. this is a must have for you or for Rei fans... I was on emo-mode when I was taking pics... hehehe!!! Rei Ayanami Shin Seiki Evangelion

[Orchid Seed] 3 - ARX-8 Laevatein with XL-3 Booster [Kaiyodo Revoltech] 4 - Lacus Clyne action doll [Megahouse] 5 - Nirvash type ZERO [Bandai RD] 6 - Hyper Nurse Victory Yuno [Doujinshi Circle] 7 - VF-1S Valkyrie w/ strike parts skull leader/Roy custom [Yamato] 8 - Starscream (MP-03 tv ver.) 9 - Tamaki Kousaka (bikini ver.) [Gift] 10 - Tamaki Kousaka Final Dragon Chronicle: Guilty Requiem ver. [Griffon Enterprises] 11 - Tigris MMS type tiger [Konami] 12 - Vitulus MMS type calf [Konami] 13 - Kasumi DOAX2 ver. [Kotobukiya] 14 - TSF Takemikazuchi Type-00F [Revoltech Kaiyodo] ________________________________________ Update 1: So far these is the smallest Tama-nee fig but in terms of small articulated figs she is still big... taller than Figma, Revo Fraulein, SHFiguarts... Griffon's Figutto line is not that bad... She's pretty Tama-nee accurate... face and boin oppai's hehehe!!!... her skin has paint tone too... articulation wise I would say it's like my Composite Haruhi KA with a double knee joints like PlayArts... what I like the most about it was the magnetic detachble hair when changing facial expressions... the belly and leg gap when posing her annoys me... that's why I glued the center peg inner joint... that idea came from Figma Lum... I'll just recommend these for those who like a budget friendly articulated Tama-nee likewise get a Dollfie Dream, Megahouse doll, Fullpuni action fig and Yamato action fig... phew... I just realize that there is no cheap articulated fig of Tama-nee... just this one... Tamaki Kousaka (Bikini ver.) ToHeart2

Update 2: Who does'nt like micro-bikini hehehe!!! even Kuroko Shirai of Toaru Majutsu no Railgun loves it... I like this version better than the original one... and I'm still thinking if I should try to find the fresh peach ver. Lala Poplip Pipiruno Pipiru Paparemmo (dark grape ver.) Comic Aun

Update 3: Laevatein has wicked armaments to boot plus with booster pack it's a 'beast'... I have fun adding more weapons to this guy... although I have a hard time choosing between Bandai's RD... I decided to get this one instead... well it's budget friendly without the hassle of getting an exclusive parts ahem... ahem... Bandai... ARX-8 Laevatein with XL-3 Booster Full Metal Panic!

Update 4: The final piece to my Gundam action doll collection... phew... it took me years to have her... it feels great as a collector to have and complete all the non-exclusive dolls from Megahouse... this doll version of Lacus depicts her elegant traits that I love on her character... without the white long robe she looks like a Kunoichi... well if your wondering about the color of her undies it's mocha hehehe!!! Lacus Clyne Gundam Seed/Destiny

Update 5: I was hesitant of getting Nirvash... it's because it does'nt transform... WTF???... of course as a Eureka 7 fan... oh well I'll take it... enough with the gripes... the figure has a good amount of articulation that does'nt stress the joints... you can pose Nirvash at your hearts content but be warned that the shoulder plates pops-off easily... it comes with traper wave base and a huge lazer canon which is not shown in my pics... Nirvash type ZERO Eureka 7

Update 6: Among all the Keumaya figure variants that was release on a same mold... these one is my fav... color scheme and design wise... Keumaya is an ero doujinshi artist that collaborate with an unknown figure manufacturer in China... to release their Doujinshi combo with figures... it's nice marketing strategy... for a 1/6 fig the box was so compact it's in a small cube shape box... How the heck a 1/6 fig fits in here? upon opening the box it's like a pre-painted garage kit... assembly is a must... Because Keumaya knows how ahem the quality is... a manual instructions on how to take care of it was included... like if the paint chips please use Gundam Maker, if it leans use blowdryer to reposition etc... overall the quality is passable enough... the stress reliever huge-oppai's is a plus then the genitals are lock glued you'll have to force-cast-off your way... BEAT is releasing the Keumaya figs but the color schemes seems to be off from the original design... Hyper Nurse Victory Yuno Keumaya Doujinshi

Update 7: I'm just speechless on how to describe this beauty... I've been a Macross fan and have a bunch of plamo/toys from Arii, Bandai, Hasegawa... even Yamato's ver. 1 Valks... This is definitely the best among all the previous Macross Valks incarnation... Transforming to 3 modes shows how great engineering was poured to it... it's my first Yamato Valk ver. 2 so all the features are new to me... the locking tab idea was great... I like that the important decals are already in place... a deatiled small Focker pilot figure... but my most favorite among all the gimmicks is the headshield cover... it's like anime magic... I've also put all the decals which is easy if your used to Plamo... I've used the UN Spacy insignia decal instead of the Jolly Roger for the strike part... it's because I like it more plus it's easy to swap if ever I decided to buy another non-Roy custom Valk... I added a gunpod strap too... definitely I recommend these to all Macross fans... it's worth every penny I must say: "JUST BUY IT" VF-1S Valkyrie w/ strike parts (skull leader/Roy custom) Macross: DYRL

Update 8: The only MP(masterpiece) TF(transformers) I have... it's not Takara's MP but Hasbro... it's an affordable TV color I like... I'm impressed with the transformation it fits perfectly... the project designer is non-other than Shoji Kawamori... the man behind Macross mechs yey!!!... Also there is a Starscream MP-11 Takara TV ver. which comes with cape and crown with pastel shiny color... IMO this is still the best Starscream MP... it has intricate details on the fuselage, nosecone radar, wing flaps, airbrakes and with two facial expressions... it's panel-lined with weathering paint... add the base/stand too... I could'nt ask for more... in robot mode Starscream stands about 1/60 but in jet fighter mode it's 1/48... it really captures the F-15 Eagle fighter... Starscream (MP-03 tv ver.) Transformers G1

Update 9: The biggest static figure I have... I thought that scaling stops at 1/5... I was wrong... GIFT is aiming for the biggest scaled figs... which is not a bad move... The figure is heavy and solid upon holding... approximately 16 inches with base... the quality and sculpt is awesome... for a big fig there is no seamlines or paint smudges... the skin tone paint is great too... the huge oppai's and pantsu lowering adds ecchiness to the figure but not to the extent that looks vulgar... overall is great addition for your collection eventhough you don't collect Tama-nee just the fact that is freaking huge... it's really an eye-candy to display... Pics was taken on top of the bed (my mini photo-studio is too small for her)... shows out of focus... heck! the bed is shaking... no backlights just sunlight from the window... Tamaki Kousaka (bikini ver.) ToHeart2

Update 10: It's a spin-off of ToHeart2 gals in their RPG costume... It's Tama-nee in Samurai cosplay that barely protecting herself armor wise... it distracts the enemy I guess... but at least the important part is secured... check the pantsu metal plate hehehe!!! although its a bit different from Tama-nee figs that have been released she's still showing skin as usual... it's something new to me that Tama-nee is wearing a samurai theme costume... it's also the reason I like the figure...

Update 11: Today I'll be featuring Tigris... B.I. ahem some of our Otakai members hehehe!!! and maybe tomorrow I'll post her combo partner Vitulus... Tigris is a blade type user... she has a bunch of swords that resembles kris swords... yeh those swords from Lapu-Lapu days... her armor type is Tiger but to me it's just a huge booster pack that reminds me of 80's cartoon Sky Commanders... to maximize her armor you need to get Vitulus too to form the mecha Tigris... once combined... mecha Tigris look bada$$ and can instantly join the Sky Girls which is also from Konami... Tigris MMS type tiger Busou Shinki

Update 12: The partner of Tigris... Vitulus calf type a dual gun user... I like the fact that you can do a cool hover bike with Tigris parts... I forgot to pic a robot version of Vitulus because the head is changeable to a mono-eyed type... you need both of them to maximize the customization of these Shinki's... Vitulus MMS type calf Busou Shinki

Update 13: DOA 5 is just around the corner... must I say that DOA particularly Kasumi innovated the 3D jiggling oppai's... Kasumi is last but not the least for the DOAX2 Kotobukiya 1/7 figs... as the main babe of the DOA series oh my this pose is just so right... the amount of detail ahem is great... this is one of those figs that you can spend taking pics forever... this is the regular version which is sold to the masses like me... there are 2 other versions... the black limited with pony tail and the blue limited bundled with game... A must have for DOA/kunoichi/jiggling oppai fans hehehe!!! Was lazy to do a group DOAX2 Kotobukiya babe pics... Kasumi Dead or Alive Xtreme 2
