That’s odd.

If that figure of Tina is from DOAX2, shouldn’t her breasts be made out of water balloons?

I rather like the Kureha. I’ve also been diggin’ the DOAX2 series from Koto – they’ve finally got passed the “doll face” look that lessened my appreciation for their older Tecmo figures, and the 2 outfits from the game with each figure is cool. On top of that here in the US we get a really good deal on Koto figures (in general). Ayane & Lei-fang’s US releases retailed for only $55, which made them automatic preorders (I get a discount off of that too), hopefully Tina will follow along (though her yen price is higher than the previous if memory serves so…). Kureha should retail here for $40 or $45 and after discount will be a total no-brainer. I just got in the Koto Neige (based off the Shining Tears art book cover) and it’s excellent, also quite large for 1/8 Scale.

Not too bad tonight for Kotobukiya, but the best by far for me is the Kureha..not the same standard as Max Factory’s, but still, a nice selection. Only reason I say that is that Max’s is a larger scale, so has more to ogle! @_@

To my knowledge nothing is confirmed regarding Kotobukiya’s Kureha yet, but if I were to guess I’d say her skirt is probably removable, but the top is likely not meant for removal (as in you’ll have to break it to take it off, and nothing beneath will be finished).

Hi Shingo, do you know if this Kotobukiya 1/8 scale Kureha figure is castoffable? As in the tops and bottoms can be removed? (just like the Clalaclan figure from Kotobukiya)

kureha’s left eyebrow seems kinda long, but i’ll end up having it somehow.

WOW!! I am liking the Tina very much- love the unique pose and red, white, and blue outfit.

The other ones look great as well.
