Just when I think I'm out from collecting PVCs, I just ordered Alter's Hazuki from XL-Shop. I just hope that they have her in stock because it sooo cheap! (RM84 only!)

My last order will be Kotobukiya's 1/5 Nanako, still waiting for TFM's shipment to arrive.

I read the comments on Tsukiboard about paint going off from the bottom hair, is that the problem?

The price is a steal for Alter figures even if the quality isn't that good.

Just got my Alter Hazuki. She's not bad at all for a 4 years old figure even with some rough edges and seam lines. I was actually very impressed by the detailed colours on her.

I couldn't agree more with orestes. Blanc Neige looked really good when in prototype stage like Maxima now but once you get the production line figures you would indeed be disappointed... I know I was haha. Hence the term Blanc Neige syndrome, am I right orestes?

There were other examples too like Celestia where she looked good in the promotional pics but was so so only when she came out. Hence for Kotobukiya Shining Wind figures I would rather wait until I can see the production version first.

Ah! Look who arrived at my doorstep today!

<snipped>

Really happy with the details, but the stationary seems fragile, was really nervous when assembling it for display.
Managed to do so successfully  .

Good job GSC.

dont call postman stupid. without them u will never get ur c2pid figures

Obviously, there is a very high probability that several parts will break or be damaged during shipping to you.
