Background:(So the main culprit his is economic outsourcing?)
Hailing from Koutetsuyama, the mountain with the continent's richest deposit of iron ore, Yuumil is the daughter of the king of the dwarves and has been entrusted with the management of their fabled ironworks for more than fifty years. However, due to the opening of other mines and the rise of cheap, mass-produced steel, the dwarven ironworks has been endangered. If it could be proven that the dwarven-made weapons of "Iron Mountain" were the best in the world, surely their reputation would rally the forge's flagging business prospects... it was with this PR goal in mind that Yuumil entered the Queen's Blade competition.

The Review:
Cute as a button
, this little sales lady has ventured forth into the ring of combat to showcase her people's weaponry due to competition from the outside world. Last time I had reference on dwarven beings, it was LOTR and Record of Lodoss Wars. In the comic books, it was in "The New Mutants" Special Edition and X-men Annual# 9 (the Asgard Adventure). Even there, the elves weren't presented in such a cute and sexy light (heck who am I kidding, it's just an alibi to present a lolli character in a legal age)
Back to the fig, just like the upcoming Echidna, she was originally released back in 2007............which I missed. But thanks to Megahouse I managed to snag this one.
Contents:
the box (so cute and girly.......the lacy.....ohhhhhhh :haunted:
Did I mention she's as cute as a button? Mannnn it makes me want to squeeze and hug her ^_^6
well the advantage of this "special edition" is that she comes with an extra weapon upgrade..........a "Mjolnir" like hammer that complements her battle axe
the axe handle can be detached like a multi tool you buy at a hardware shop
also included are the cast-off parts of Ymir (her tiny breast plate and her skirt)her panstsu........is left dangling on her boot X))
Anyways, this wouldn't be a Megahouse product without details, and this princess has tons of them.
Her croissant like curls for instance( mind you, in other japanese sites, this curls looked shoddy in paint apps but my figure was perfect in this regard.........either that or the camera used was in Super Hi definition)are very nice to look at.
full back shot
her left glove
a magickal glove similar to the ones worn by Link from the Legend of Zelda(enables the wearer to lift things with no efforts at all or getting yourself an hernia)
her utility belt(?)
rear skirt
upskirt ^_^6
no skirt :haunted:
back pantsu details (all the laces and ruffles)
the killer boots (Ouch!)
NSFW X))
full cast-offfffffffffff
img241.imagevenue.com/img.php?image...5_123_484lo.JPG
topless (her nipples are like dots......... ^_^6 )
img237.imagevenue.com/img.php?image...6_123_204lo.JPG
castoff pantsu (her advantage over the Griffon version) :haunted:
img247.imagevenue.com/img.php?image...7_123_250lo.JPG
her pudenda(no actual pudenda but a slight indention coupled with paint shading leaving the rest up to your imagination)

her cute butt
Griffon has also released their own version. From what I read it is based on the anime designs while Megahouse's is that of the manual(and it shows). Which is better? Well it all boils down to taste. I personally prefer this version (in terms of price and extra accessories). Not to mention full cast-off down to her pantsu. In terms of design accuracy, Griffon has the edge in the sense that , well Ymir's sapphire earrings are part of the package. Megahouse skipped that part.
(see the earings?)
The final score ( I give her 4.9 over 5 for the lack of the earrings)
