Thanks for the last minute article; I always love your column.

I didn't buy anything particularly for Christmas, but I have a lot of Figmas from the past months left unopened due to a lack of shelf space. I think I'll use Christmas as an excuse to open them up and clean up. (>")>

Oooh, her name is Fei-Yen! I've been calling her Shoujo-Bot for years. (Similarly, I call the purple ponytailed one riding the oar Botan-Bot. As much as I like it, I can't name a Virtual On robot to save my life.)

I purchased one for a friend for Christmas. It was pretty cool until starting to put it together. My American hands were just to big Smile
But I do like the figure a lot. They covered up the bendy joints really well. Pretty cool costume design also.
Happy New Year everyone!

Stupid holiday mail delays, been waiting four weeks (as of today) for this to arrive (four and a half for another package, and four weeks as of yesterday for two others, all SAL).

Wish there was a comparison pic in this article to show how it compares with some figma. Haven't seen any good comparison shots out there, surprisingly there aren't any on MFC. Oh well, I'll know when I get mine.

She is taller than a Figma but feels very similar (the super light weight, the joints). I don't think she'd look too out of place on a shelf with Vocaloid Figmas.

That's good to hear, I was planning on displaying her with my 5 figma Miku(s). Though I guess as a robot being taller wouldn't be a bad thing at all.
