Huh, I thought she was a main character of her franchise as well. I seem to see quite a lot of pictures of her around, after all.

Never mind the ball-chins Rob, look at the veins in their bodies. Pulsing, varicose, veins...

Maybe it's just a trick of the light, but I think you can see slightly erect nipples through her shirt. Given the nature of the figure, I'd say it's probably not just a trick of the light.

I don't see the testicles either.

Eh, every once in awhile you buy the naughty toy because it looks cool. I still want Nowa from Queen's Blade just because I'm a huge fan of myths (she's such a cute Monkey King!). I also own a very big chested fox girl whose skirt comes off so you can pose her in her panties (I think from this series). She's one of my better sculpted figurines, not to mention I finally have a kitsune character in my collection!

Did anybody else get an infolink on "naked anime girl"? That had a pop-up window with an article on swine flu? I don't think these advertisement links works quite the way they're supposed to...

I agree with everyone here that I don't think I would've considered the snake-balls without you considering them as such. Maybe your photo didn't capture them from the right angle, but they don't look particularly testicular.

Infolink yes, but I didn't have the guts to mouse over and see where 'naked anime girl' went. Swine flu, huh? What kind of world is this, where even fictional girls can give you a virus? Laughing

I don't see the snake-balls either... while the neck-skin isn't particularly appealing, it's more like a wattle* than anything else.

(*wattle= that fleshy bit turkeys and roosters have on their necks. Congrats- you now know an almost useless word!)

I fail to see any testicles. The name of the game is Sengoku Rance (not Lance). Rance is the name of protagonist of the Rance series of RPGs that has been continuing for 20 years.

His heroics have saved three out of the four major nations in the world from being conquered by Demons, as well as helping quite a number of damsels in distress. On the other hand, his impulsive sex drive has, to put it extremely mildly, scarred quite a number of young women for life.

Isn't Sengoku Lance / Rance listed in the encyclopedia? I've searched both ANN, AnimeNFO and anidb without finding anything related to this title...

Please post a link, if you have one.

To Google!

Well, there's a mention on wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rance#Sengoku_Rance

There's a link to the official site on the wikipedia page, but it's NSFW.

And here's her picture on the official site:


You wouldn't really expect a mention on ANN. I mean, it's a game, not an anime.

I also vote for not testicles. If they were, they're of horribly inconsistant quality compared to the entire rest of the statue. More like bearded, or a turkey wattle.

I think those things on the snake are air-sacs to make mating calls--which would make it some kind of snake-toad monster. I'm not a QUEEN'S BLADE fan, but if I was the type who collected figures based only on sculpt/design I would collect that series--I think the character/costume designs are amazing. My favorite is Menas--the Egyptian theme is great. I'd really love to see a review of a clothing-optional anime figure. To paraphrase Madarame(GENSHIKEN): I'm not interested in "regular" porn.(I wish I could remember his exact words.)
