Hobby Stock posted a listing today for Daiki Kougyou‘s Kenshi-san (fencer) PVC figure, an item that has popped up at various events over the past few months but that we haven’t bothered to cover due to the general blandness of the sculpt. She’s a Yamada Yoshinari original kit (photo here), and is being produced in a limited run of 3,000 units for release in January of next year. She clocks in at 1/6 scale (26 cm tall), 7,850 yen retail, and is castoffable both above and below; a good kit for someone looking to make an ero-ero Tifa mod, perhaps? (no more)
i just ordered this haha. i think it’s cute. does remind me of tifa.
Yeah, you know… the more I look at her the more I’m tempted. Grrr… this one’s going to be a hard decision. ;_;
Very cute figure… but I swear, she’s got the hands of a basketball player. >_>;
Just saw this at HobbySearch. Looks pretty tempting but I’m still on the fence. For those interested:

May wait til HLJ has it up their site to give me some time to decide =/
I am loving the face and that’s usually my kryptonite…….I’m gonna be on the fence with this one as well but she is at the top of the list.
I’m on the fence on this one too. The pose really isn’t doing it for me. That and the fact that I think my cash is better spent on prisoner Kanu-chan.
I forgot to mention that HS has 2 new Dragon Destiny characters up for pre-order, both of which have some cast-offability

I ordered the Koumei as I really like her elaborate costume. (Yeah right, we all know I want her BOOBIES) :P

Yup, I noticed those yesterday evening. Didn’t mention them here as the face sculpts seem a bit off to me… The castoff is a plus, and I do hope it’s a trend we’ll see more of from Griffon.
What the hey, might as well post on ’em regardless. Thanks for the reminder!

Yeah the Ryuubi one looks totally out of whack. The body doesn’t match the face at all, like someone pasted on Yumiko Readman’s face onto Chun-li’s body.
The other one isn’t too bad and me likes it :D
