Here is the link to this figure:
item/3578
I found this figure in a online shop which sells many old figures.Coincidentally i'm getting interest in old figures from many many years ago. But the problem is, i didn't even know who is this character, so i decided to read the manga. And the best thing happened to me, the author of the manga is Oh!Great. He's one of my favouritest artist , i love his artstyle, how he draws the male character.I was really happy about it.
Also, about the manga,... well, not so great.I don't know, i read the Monogatari manga and prefer his new style. So that when i read the manga, my mood just reduce. But at least the plot is related to roller skate and i also in love with it. I used to play roller skates back in 2012 and quitted playing it because of the time.
So that i bought this figure to appreciated the artist's works and my beautiful memories for roller skate.
Ok, let's start with the box:
If you know, this is a limted product in conjunction with Pinky: st to promote the 12th series of the Air Gear manga. One thing that surprised me is that this is a cardboard box, not a plastic box. The box design looks very nice and modern with the text on the outside and behind it is an image (possibly related to the story).
Inside the box:
It's the figure!
Wow, it perfectly fit in the box.
The manga is smaller than the figure box in width, and it is really hard to take it out.
I will share my thought on the manga first;
The cover:
So... so beautiful.
I have no other word to describe this, it has a smooth surface and a neon pink which it suitable to a shounen manga. I also like the image, it's Ringo and other characters are showed in a creative way. And you can see two side of the cover it appears Ringo's chibi art with different model. The gray covers also show the concept art which is very cute and cool.
Too bad i know nothing about Japanese so i will use this manga as art reference. The art is still good tho.
( Can't believe this products existed in 2005, the book has no sign of damage)
About now jump into the figure;
The figure box is small but cute, the box also show the way to assemble and change the clothe- wait, it reminds me the set of clothes changing stickers for princesses.
She has a red glasses and a yellow one, roller skates, and a orange hoodie. She is wearing a black and white coat which is very nice, a blue skirt and a red-white.
The figure looks so adorable! I was really suprised about the hair sculpt: Very detail and not flat at all. So sad this figure doesn't have any join so i was really dissapoited about that.
The worst thing about this figure is the neck part is so small and light compare to the head and it easily fall, it also happened to the hair and i struggled with this problem for more 20 mins help-
You can change her clothes in the way you like:
Compare to my Miku nendoroid:
Ok so i want to talk an interesting thing about this figure. Just like nendoroid, the face and hair parts can remove. If you look at the back side of the head, it will show the name of author's name.
( Not gonna lie, she looks like Mari but brown eyes.)
Ringo will be on my desk with my Pandora Hearts calendar.
So this is the end. I want to talk more about this figure but i can't. Thanks for reading this post!
