REVIEW - NISHIKINO MAKI SWIMSUIT Ver by ALTER

～ ALTER 西木野真姫 水着Ver ～

Hello World!

Direct to topic, I will be having a review of my latest scale figure, Nishikino Maki Swimsuit ver by ALTER.

Front

Neat and well designed Clear Case as usual from Alter

Rear

having her signature printed on the Clear Case

Well protected with plastic sheet

Base

Title as main with some hexagon patterned details

Let's get into the Figure

Starting with a turn for a overall view

and let's go into the close ups

a one significant charming point of the swimsuit

Big and Cute Ribbon with well Gradation Painted

frills of the skirts and the under are well painted too

No worries, it's Swimsuit!

Necklace made by Clear Parts

a Thumb up for the Flower Accessory as well

Cute hood

not forgetting the details under the jacket

While you thought the jacket is able to cast off... nah. it's sticked together

Seems Perfect.

But this will never the case. as these are hand made mass production items. 

They couldn't be 100% perfect. 

Paint bleed at the bead 

Glue bleed - the Glossy line

 Parting line not 100% cleaned yet

A spot at the tip of the hair rubbed away

most probably there is a friction between it and the hood during assembly

Though you may think they are negligible, they are still consider as defects.

However, it's still far more better than many other companies.

Even though it's Made in China, the Quality is still high.

Well Done ALTER.

Well.. Let's get back to the photos

With some lower angled view!

Frills on the jacket

look at that bodyline and you will know how pro the sculptor is

Comparison with the Original Illustration. 

Almost Perfect. The only different is the eyes viewing direction.

Original Illustration looking straight, while the Figure is looking side

Overall, this is really a worth.

As a LoveLiver, a Maki-Chan Fan, and a fan of the company ALTER.

I really love this Figure. I just can't leave my eyes away from it.

Satisfaction 10/10

Well Done ALTER. Thank you ALTER.

This concludes my Review of NISHIKINO MAKI SWIMSUIT Ver by ALTER.

Thanks

New Animation Goods!! Wish upon the Pleiades - 放課後のプレアデス Review

Hello World!
Well, today topic will not be about Plamo, but Animation!

Just some brief intro about it - It's a story about 5 girls trying to change themselves, by changing into Magical girls! If you had watched those past magical anime such as Nanoha or else. This's somehow different.

I like how the story flows smoothly, as well as the way they uses the astronomical terms. Though it's Magical anime, the story actually explains all the physical sciences behind and only those non physical phenomena are explained as Magic. 

Of course, this jumps into my favorite list straight, which is also why I have gotten the BD! 

Let's get into the review!

First will be the Youtube Edition

Front Cover

Rear Cover

OST CD as First release bonus

and the Main Bluray Disc

Bonus Special Booklet

with some introduction, director's interview,

Commentaries,

lyrics for the theme song,

and finished with credits & some cute illustration! 

----------------------------------------------------------------

Next will be the TV version BD vol 2!

A nicely illustrated of Hikaru as cover with a special clear case with butterfly printed. Apologise that I didnt take out the wrapping sheet because I doesnt want the clear case to get scratched.

the Main Disc

Two postcard sized card with the eye-catch and ending illustrations printed on both sides.

Special Booklet with the settings and illustrations

--------------------------------------------------

As I didnt have a review of the vol 1, I will be doing it now.

Similarly, a nice illustrated Subaru as the cover and a special clear case

the Vol 1 actually had a bonus OST CD instead of the booklet

and the cards are already displayed on my glass display cabinet

last but not least, the CD collection of the op & ed songs, as well as the OST 

And that's basically all! If you haven watch Wish upon the Pleiades yet, I recommend you to have a try. It's not something heavy, but a calm and heart-warming story.

--  I might not be able to update this blog for some times from next week onward. Reason been that I had to go for my National Service next week. It's a compulsory for all SG men to train and learn the basics for defending our nation.

Last for 2 years. 

Though, obviously, I will still took out time for my modelling.

So.. see ya!
