Man, I'd like to get that to go along with the
RIOBOT Jehuty that I already have, but that price is ridiculous. Over twice what I paid for Jehuty, and while the quality of Jehuty is decent and I can justify ~10000 JPY, I really don't think it's good enough that I can justify over 20000...
Also, finally got my order of DETOLFs delivered last weekend, and went to work setting up the figures I'd bought but haven't had space to display (some of them, anyway, as I only have 1 new DETOLF set up until I can do some room rearrangement). Which means also taking some proper light box pictures:
GSC Saber Motored Cuirassier - As I already own both Distant Avalon and Golden Caliburn (the former being quite possibly my favorite figure), I'm familiar with GSC's quality on the Kawahara Takayuki sculpted Sabers, and this is no different. Looks wonderful
GSC Saber Triumphant Excalibur - Same boat as above, but in terms of sculpt I think this is by far the weakest of the 4. Still quite good, but the others are just that much better.
Alphamax Alisa Ilinichina Amiella - Her eyes looks a bit off, which is disappointing. The sculpt and pose are quite good though.
GSC Ciel Alencon - I debated getting this for quite some time because I have no attachment to the source material at all and it costs a pretty penny, but in the end I gave in. The pose looks great, the sword is cool, and I'm apparently a sucker for the frowning-in-concentration facial expression.
Max Factory Mari Illustrious - this is far from being the most exciting figure, but I love her smile. Simple and elegant.
Kotobukiya Sakuya Mode:Seraphim - Tony Taka character design, and massive angel wings. It's like a figure designed specifically for me. I do wish it was smaller than 1/6 though, because this thing is gigantic. So much so that it barely fit into a DETOLF shelf, and looks kind of bad because it reaches the top. I ended up having to put it on top of my DETOLF for display.
GSC Kuroyukihime - not angel wings, but almost as good. This looks fantastic, made all the better thanks to getting it for a steal.
Kotobukiya Sinon - I quite liked SAO despite its faults, but surprisingly this is the first and only SAO figure I own thanks to the other characters just being not all that visually interesting in design. I quite like this pose.
Max Factory Tharja - I'm rather less enamored with this figure than most, but it is pretty nice.
And I guess might as well post some pictures of the DETOLFs:
