One of the most highly anticipated shipments of the year, GSC Saber Lily from the CAPCOM fighting game Fate Unlimited Code has finally arrived at my residence, a bit earlier than I expected but it’s not like I am complaining. Here is a overview of the loots:
- Good Smile Company 1/7 Saber Lily
- Native X Max Factory 1/7 Kotone Ousaka X2
- Suku-Mizu Mecha Nurse Girl Nana
- 60cm Doll Inner Oriental Lace Red
- 60cm Doll Inner Happy Ribbon Blue
- 60cm Chiffon One-Piece Black
- 60cm Lir Princess One-Piece Black
- TnK Princess Checked Bikiki set
- Bandai Action Bases X3
- Shimapan from Miss Dollfie Summer 2009
A bunch of stuffs has been arriving since the beginning of the month, from the figure end, besides the aforementioned GSC Saber Lily, there is also Kotone Ousaka from Native X Max Factory, an illustration turned figure from the all too well known master Tony, and Suku-Mizu Mecha Nurse Girl Nana, another illustration turned figure from the mecha girl expert E-Ji Komatsu.
The GSC Saber Lily came as one of the elegant packages I have ever come across, everything is beautifully executed.
Since I am still not very satisfied with my lighting setup and there are already so many GSC Saber Lily review out there, I feel I should do something a little different here… so I have decided to bring out the only other fixed scale Saber Lily in the market right now, the Gathering Saber Lily against GSC version.
I personally like both figures, both have their good points and since I am quite a sucker for Saber Lily figure, so got to catch them all! The GSC version is more elegant and dynamic, but I feel the T System version is a lot closer to original artwork though, especially the facial expression.
Next up is also from my most wanted list for the year, from a collaboration between Native and Max Factory brought us one of Tony’s illustrations, Kotone Ousaka. The moment I lay my eyes on Kotone back in Feburary, I knew I have got to have her, perhaps a bit (or largely) toward the naughty side of things (hey it’s not like I don’t have naughty figures, they are just hidden… in my secret cabinet, most of you probably haven’t seen them 
), but so perfectly executed that she will most definitely rank one of my top 10 favorite PVC figures in my collection. I wanted her so much that I somehow ended up placing two separate orders for her in fear that one of the order might not go through (the 2nd order was through YJA). But as luck would have it, my original pre-order went through and now I am in possession of 2 Kotone… someday, I might let one go to re-cope the extra money I spent on the YJA.
Kotone is just so overflowing with sex appeal that it’s difficult for me to choose words to describe her without being naughty myself…. I would love to do a detail review for her but since I had just placed an order for a set of light umbrella, I think I will wait until then before doing that.
I rarely buy figure based on just looks, because I would most certainly be broke if I buy everything that looks good to me; so I adopted a criteria that I must like the background story of a character before I decided to buy a figure based on the character. However, there can be some exceptions from time to time, such as Suku-Mizu Mecha Nurse Girl Nana from the Megami Magazine Creators Vol. 8, illustrated by one of my favorite mecha girl artist E-Ji Komatsu. If I am not mistaken, this is the first mecha girl figure based on E-Ji Komatsu, and as one of E-Ji’s fan for over 10 years, it would be a shame for me to not pick up this figure.
I don’t buy Orchid Seed figure very often, so I didn’t know what to expect before Nana arrived. I will do a more thorough overview in due time, but for now let just say Nana is definitely above average quality, almost every other figure lose out a bit when compared against GSC Saber Lily and Native Kotone Ousaka (save for Alter Narika though, but she hasn’t shown up to my door yet >.<).
And here is a shot with all new figures together.
Since HLJ announced the free EMS shipping promotion last month, I couldn’t help myself but tried to find “something” to order to take advantage of the promotion, luckily, I was able to pick out some Dollfie Clothes.
Yeah I know I know, I got all these clothes but how come my Dollfie Daughters are still in their default clothing? It will happen soon, I have got to do that along with the progression on the Dollfie Dream Theater, it will definitely happen! But I am really tempted to take some new photographs with the new fancy lingerie from Cuties, they are really quite elaborate :s
While it might have taken a bit long, the shimapan prize from the Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 has finally arrived! While technically it was Escalayer who brought home the prize, but both Asuka and Escalayer had a full workout during the various photo sessions! You can look at some of the wonderful images of my Dollfie Daughters for the contest in Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 Escalayer and Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 Asuka. And I really shouldn’t dream of getting away without actually putting the pantsu into use right?
Took me a while to recreate this shot, which I consider as one of the most “innocent” pantsu shot I have taken!
Hopefully new lights will arrive shortly to improve the conditions of indoor photos!
Oh and before I forget, I also picked up a few Bandai action bases… obviously they are props for the upcoming Dollfie Dream Theater! I also pick up a secret boss which I have to build…. no, I can’t tell you what it is yet!

The first picture actually make the hugggge Saber Lily box look small. That’s a first ^^!
.-= kodomut´s last blog ..Excalibur Stand =-.
Thanks for stopping by Kodomut :3 Wonderful Excalibur Stand you got there!
I have a lot of large scale figures, ranging from the Grand mama of all 1/2.5 Asuka coldcast, 1/3 Dollfie Dreams to 1/4 Painted resins, so Saber Lily box is actually quite average size in my collection.
incredible loots XD Kotone is naughty indeed and Nana is just awesome with her sanitary way of storing those supplies.
i cant believe i missed that HLJ promotion… ;_; you got so much more Dollfie clothing! im practicing patience for the big reveals lol and that Escalayer pose is delicious as always :3
There are a bunch more incoming, most of them were Azone stuff that were just restocked, like loose socks, sailor uniform, etc. More stuffs are on the way though, including a Victorian style lean over chair! That’s what I need to compose more pantsu shots!
Yeah Kotone is awesome, I just got back from Toylet a few days ago too.
.-= Panther´s last blog ..Sora no Otoshimono 01 Impressions =-.
I started to lose fate on Toylet’s ability to fulfill the order…. that’s how I ended up with 2 Kotone lol…
My Saber Lily is in transit, looks like I’ll be one of the last people to get their order filled. Alas EMS has been seriously lacking in transit expediency here lately because my parcels usually get held up at customs for over a week…
The Kotone figure looks lovely. Adore Tony Taka’s work, had anticipated this figure but ended up not getting her. Kind of regret that but have to make some hard choices budget wise, plus displaying her might get some unwanted reactions from potential audience. ^^;;
My main supplier is usually very slow on getting new figures but they came through pretty darn fast on Saber Lily so I am a happy camper for once, still have not gotten Alter Choko Sennin Narika though >:(
Kotone is just awesome, one of the naughtiest figures without being explicit, the illustration to figure transfer is almost flawless, well executed. Someday I might let the extra Kotone go, she is pretty hard to find after all, no reason for me to horde 2 of them.
Oh shi.. This looks like that loot is worth more than my entire collection, no I’m not jealous. ^^;
GSC AND a Gathering Lily! oO Do you plan on getting the ALTER Lily too?
Kotones pose is quite teasing, eh?
I was so drooling over the Mecha-Musume Nana but I knew it would be too expensive for me. ToT
Her thermometer storage place is just soo wrong xD
And nice pantsu shot, looks really cute.
BTw: Could you eventually update my blogs link in your blogroll? It was changed to “austrian otaku” @ http://austrianotaku.com and the RSS feed was updated to http://feeds.feedburner.com/austrianotaku .
Thanks in advance!
.-= hikky´s last blog ..Introducing austrianotaku.com 1.0 =-.
Ah yes, I have Alter Saber Lily on pre-order as well, one can’t never have too many Saber Lilies now, can I?
Mecha-Musume Nana is actually on sale in Amazon Japan, down to about 6k yen I think
I’m getting my second Kotone soon too, which I really did not expect. I notice that Native’s Shoujo M is also appearing on American retailer websites, even though the Japanese release was website-exclusive. I wonder what’s up with that?
.-= Tier´s last blog ..Cammy from Street Fighter Alpha (Pink Capcom Girls Version) =-.
Oh you too lol, that makes two of us.
I had no clue about Shoujo M until you mentioned it, doesn’t look like my kind of figure though.
I think I’m one of the very few who was able resist Saber Lily. It’s been hard but I just have a feeling I won’t like her as much in the long term as much as I want her now.
Clearly in time I will find out. lol
Nice loot u got there. Ur like the first person I know who actually bought Suku-Mizu Mecha Nurse Girl Nana. How’s the scuplt btw? I heard the quality below average?
.-= Optic´s last blog ..Nyantype Vol. 3: My Impressions =-.
GSC Saber Lily is most probably one of the best looking figures in the past couple of years though; I don’t know if you are playing the contrarian role here but there is very little chance we will find her to be less epic than what she is even a few years down the road. True beauty should be able to endure the test of time, unlike trend such as “moe”.
Nurse girl Nana is an ok figure, I would put her somewhere between Griffon Enterprise and Kotobukiya in terms of quality. She is a little bit on the expensive side for the quality of the shading but it’s a decent paint job nonetheless. She is actually on sale in Amazon JP for almost 30% off, not a bad deal. She was kind of a pain to put together, even though with the ability to cast off, I don’t think I will bother with it; I am not a big fan of playing cast off on my figures anyway.
Nice loot Wolf!
I am still waiting for my Saber Lily from two weeks and counting. It seems there is an small problem with customs…Hope it is not the “swords”…
.-= Toonleap´s last blog ..Japan’s Warrior USB Scary Joypad! =-.
Hope your lily arrive soon
She is wonderful!
Congrats on another huge loot.
If you’re selling that Kotone in the future, I could be your potential buyer. ^^
Looking forward to your Orchid Seed figure review, have always wanted to see what their quality is like. Not enough reviews out there.
I would definitely consider that proposal.
The tone of the paint on the Orchid Seed figure is a tad too dark, and shading seemed a bit too heavy for my liking. Their quality is about where Griffon Enterprise is.
I’m sorry about my rudeness. I have a photoshoot project about these dollfie, but these girls really out of my reach
. If it’s not bothered you so much. May I ask you to take some pictures of Rin at various angle? You don’t need to bring her out to have nice backscreen or photoshop it, I just only need raw pictures. Just use some plain backscreen like black wall or something. And send it into my mail, at shinning_cross@yahoo.com.
And if possible, I’d have a last picture like this

Thanks for reading, even if you don’t have time to do all that work
