This channel is where I share my thoughts on action figures, toy collecting, anime, and film!
I’ve been collecting toys on and off for 9 years now and used to work as a freelance photographer and videographer for events, engagements, and weddings. My love for filmmaking and movies especially Akira Kurosawa’s films translates to my love of Samurai-themed action figures.
When I’m not at my day job, I'm shooting/editing my videos or doing volunteer charity work for a Filipino migrants organisation here in UK. I also occasionally shoot portraits, events, and weddings for friends and acquaintances here in London and Cambridge.
This channel is a passion project where I get to talk about stuff I love and be a nerd about it. I do this mainly for myself, but if you like what you see and get value from my content and experience, then all the better!

5 Quick Tips to Assemble Flat Pack Furniture and Save Money
I've always got the feeling that BSP figmas are the test bed model for hyper body line by the look of the double joints and the off-scaleness / deviation from 1/12
In general, I think figma is trying to make their scaling fit other lines. Makes me feel excited to unbox HB Modernia and do a comparison 🤔 thanks!
Great review, as always. You did a good job covering multiple aspects of this figure.
Thanks for watching even if you have her already. Much appreciated. I try my best 😁
Armor doesn't give you any tactical advantage whatsoever.
It’s for distracting enemies 😅
Fair enough. I love Nadare's works so I'm all in but the designs are for a particular niche for sure. Same reason why I have the entire Neco Figma line. I just love Neco's designs especially the Falslanders. The new joints are definitely something I like. Hope they keep innovating and not remains stagnant after this. Also thanks for the review.
Thank you! I love FALSLANDER too!! New joints are always welcome because it means there will be further improvements in the future. Who’s your favorite in neco’s designs?
Ronin design-wise but the figma really needs soft goods to be posable like they gave Samurai soft goods.
No bugs can't be sexy 😂 just no. Then there's this guy 😂😂
Gotta expand our horizons 🤣
@studioaureal no no keep it in your pants! Do you know how sharp a proboscis is!!!?
Figma, means Not Cast-off not for me then
@@adriansue8955 hey thanks for the comment. What cast off figures would you recommend? Most of them are in 1/6th scale right?
very relaxing!
👍👍👍
@@fugo1503_hobby 🔥🔥🔥
I had this on preorder when it first went up months ago but cancelled it last December just before it released. I initally wanted to get it because I was curious how Figma implemented the hip/butt design and was hopeful they could make it look seamless. But after watching a review of the most recent bikini Sophia and seeing that it shares mostly the same engineering as this one, I wasn't too happy with it and that's the main reason I decided not to get this one. One thing I wish reviewers would do for figures like this that have a largely exposed butt is to show viewers what it looks like from behind when the legs are fully bent forward or spread. Almost all figures so far have had poor implementation of this and they end up looking like they have a double butt (because of a butt flap) or have very ugly joints/gaps that destroy the look of the butt (like this one). I don't count figures that have clothing over the butt cheeks because those can easily camouflage the joints or robotic/mecha figures. Some of the few figures I have in this 1/12 scale that have done the butt perfectly are the TBleague figures (but they're silicone based so not something you'd leave posed for a long time), the Nana Hoshikawa figure from some Chinese brand, and the SHF Yamato figure from One Piece (if you remove/look under her hakama). I'm hoping the upcoming Mummy girl figure from Snail Shell does the butt perfectly, but since none of the promo shots show it from behind while in a sitting position, I won't know until I receive it.
@@archienov hey arch, thanks for your comment, I appreciate it! I think the best butt shot I have is when she’s holding the huge sword but it’s not in the video. But yeah the hip joints are visible from behind if her legs move apart, moreso if legs are bent forward. The FALSLANDER figmas look worse from behind having the double butt you mentioned. This would have been better if she can do a proper sitting pose. Not sure if Snail Shell can “fix” this issue but looking forward to see how they approach things moving forward. I’m not expecting much of a change though. I’ll watch reviews of that Nana Hoshikawa figure. I think I saw one before from NostalgiaUnboxed. Again thanks for the insight 😊
@@studioaureal Sure no problem. If you do decide to get Nana, you may want to just display her without the skirt. One of my few gripes with the figure is that for some reason, they made her skirt out of hard plastic. Guess they really wanted us to remove it lol. Anyways, I will continue my search for 1/12 scale figures with the perfect butt so I can do the sexy S poses with the butt stuck out and back arched up or the sitting poses I want.
japanese can distinguish between reality and fiction. and they know this is for fan service no reason and realistic behind it. only westerners that cannot distinguish fiction from reality... anyway great quality review.
That being said, I can say the armor works as it should and more! 😇 Thanks for the comment! Hope I can make more reviews this year
Well if you want to sell this figure it skyrocketed to near 2X the original price on the aftermarket! But no way am I going to spend 21K+ yen on a Figma! Hopefully they will make a cheaper plastic model kit version just like with Sophia Shirring.
I saw that yesterday before I posted this. I wonder what’s the fuzz about it when a lot of other figma have better articulation? 21k is a lot indeed and you can buy loads of other stuff with that amount.
I saw someone sell her second hand at 39,000 yen at Lashinbang.
@@fiftyfive5459 Dafuq. Hype is real! 😳 Will it sell though at that price is another question
The quality in this review is Top Notch! Keep up the great work!
Thanks bro!! I appreciate the comment 🙏🏼 please subscribe if you haven’t already 🙂
"The less cover you have, the stronger your armour is" SO TRUE!
@@mauricepaolo It’s an unexplained phenomenon in Japanese art and literature 😅😭
Dammit! I kinda* hate that I didn't buy this! (I bought other stuff instead) Her American release hasn't happened tho, so I'll tune in for that like I did for the second Sophia.
Then again, I did get all 3 Konosuba gals in their swimsuits, so that's pretty neat actually. I wonder if Elsa & Olaf could have waited tho...
@@julianx2rl You are a man of culture. Of all 3 Konosuba figmas, I like Darkness the most. I’ve been eyeing her in Good Smile Company Europe shop for months now haha but haven’t pulled the trigger 😅 I found one for sale on Ebay a few months back for £55 and I should’ve gotten her then. But we got to manage our expenses well. Loads more coming this year 🥲
For the record, the second figure also had double jointed knees.
That said, it is actually the first Sophia that has the edge in terms of articulation among the 3 Figmas released so far, having better hips articulation, a double jointed neck and less stuff in the way. With a Surfboard that doubles as a shield, a gun, a sniper rifle, a knife, a spear, goggles, 4 faceplates and water bottles the first release also has the edge in terms of accessories. Not to mention the fact that each faceplate is more unique compared to one another, which results in a wider array of expressions that go even farther with the goggles.
@@julianx2rl heeey! Thaaanks for this info! For some reason, the designs for Sophia didn’t grow on me. The surfboard reminded me of Eureka 7 but that’s it. I agree with you though, those accessories are dope. Are they all the same in terms of torso and hip sculpt or were there improvements along the way?
@@studioaureal - The upper torso is the same, however, the main difference is that the first figure uses the traditional T joint for the hips, while the newer ones use hinges. The problem with the newer ones is that there's not enough room for the legs to move forward due to the busier engineering, so they can't reach a full 90° angle, let alone further. The new setup has a hinge on the lower torso, but that's only really useful if you want to raise both legs at the same time, in other words, a leg spread (Fair enough if you want to do that tho!) - Although I did take a cool shot trying to come up with a good use for that hinge, you can look it up as "SFS - Hovering Break". A downside of the hinge is that you can't really move it backwards, just forward, which means that the new ones can't bump up their butts, which the old one can do. Figma Spider-Man actually achieved great hip articulation with hinge joints, but that's because they also threw ball joints into the mix!
The older hip joints you’re talking about, are those the ones you can pull down a bit that gives more range to the legs? I find those very useful but looks weird when sitting due the exposed joints. With this new hinge joint though you can’t actually do a proper sitting pose so casual everyday poses are out. The articulation is indeed limited when compared to other figma. They just can’t find that sweet balance. They just keep on experimenting these days I guess 😅
@@studioaureal - No, is not the pop-down, one of the promo pics of the original Sophia features her sitting, so you can see how that looks there!
GYATTTT
HUGE 😳 Definitely makes sense that the uhhh...something...wait there's armour...got distracted. Definitely the highest level armour in rpg 👀 I always think long hair could do with articulation, but then usually it doesn't add much so then it ends up being cut up for no reason. Great review as always, and funny that I saw her displayed in a storefront just last weekend.
Thanks!! Huge indeed. 🤣 I agree, adding joints to the hair also disrupt the shape. Long hair most of the time gets in the way of articulation, while even longer hair causes weight issues. We are yet to find a figure that solves these. I wonder how Snail Shell will approach this with Grisa? 🤔 What do you think seeing it in person?
Funnily I think of Miku for super long articulated hair which can balance. But the style is completely different. Grisa just has normal hair like Lustia I think. Veronica looks nice but I already got too much stuff (coming in) 😅
@@NoGoodFigures I’ll stay tuned at your channel for stuff I’m not getting! My Hyper Body Marian arrived last week but haven’t taken her out of the box. 😅 I’ll watch your review again plus the 2nd vid again before I start fiddling with 🙏🏼
Likewise 👍 For Modernia, just don't pull her head off and be careful where you grab/move on the gun. Should be fine!
@NoGoodFigures thanks for the tip, I’ll take note of that. Have you seen the Hasuki maid? 😆
Kind of gives me a Guyver vibe
SMASH, next question.
Thanks for the great review. I picked up the sun kissed version
I've lost my mind.
I really like the more boney white paint on it. To simply make her green or pink would have been too overused. Well not that it would look bad. I just wish the bug eyes on top of the head had more done in terms of paint and that the antennae were done with bendy wire.

He’s in love with an insect woman…he’s in love with an insect giiiiirllll
Reminds me of a "Bio-Boosted Armour: Gyvier" extra character. Definatly looks cool
Ok seriously that shit looks dope!
Now this is the type figure I like. The movement, the possibility, and that fact she can stand on her own, with small feet is incredible. Now that's something companys should focus on, rather then ridiculous huge chess and Bottoms parts.
oh wow, she actually reminds me of the mantis Gurongi that I think is exsclusive to the Kamen Rider Kuuga manga
DETROIT SMAAAAAASH 🗣️🔥
That's a dope figure.. but that parasite face is... bruh 💀
She looks awesome! My only grievance is that she doesn't have any wings. People seem to forget that mantids are perfectly capable of flight.
For being that size it's really well made, can I ask you where you bought it?
I pre-ordered via bombusbee.net. Not sure if she’s still available for sale.
@studioaureal ah ok, thank you
@@studioaureal One last thing, but do they only have to be pre-ordered? Or can I also buy them?
Would

@studioaureal it says to subscribe or join something i dont get it.
Mantis known for their really beautiful wings irl, sadly the action figure didn't have one, just imagine how majestic she would look.
Heyyy! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I totally agree with you. If they make an accessory pack for some wings, I’ll get it. But this is also a good idea for a custom. There are a few Mystic Legion figures with wings, figma Pixie’s wings could also work!
@@yokhawanha yea.. a nice set of clear/transparent iredescent or pearl wings would have went great with the figures color scheme
Scary because female mantis rip the heads off males after mating.
@@9Tailsfan Worth it.

Trakeena what are you doing here?
@@luigi7112 nice
@huntermurillo9246 it could be a pretty custom, imo
@@luigi7112 agreed
She looks more of a sailor moon enemy.
90 percent of the viewers would be losing their heads, literally.
I'm pretty sure the guys from interspecies reviewers would tap that. ;]
To me.. It's like 3 option.. 1 : As good figure besides in Kamen rider. For Phone shoot Video and review. and really enjoyable fits in Kamen rider figure besides as normal episode. 2 : Sexy and good besides other female figure.. 3 : 8:00 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) *_Bro i have ideas you need hear me out...._*
@@alifwalker lol I’d say she’s pretty usable for whatever purpose you intend 😅
@@studioaureal... Hehehe.. I know my jokes aren't good.. But Sexy ice Brand is good if the Kamen rider makes a battle zone for photos shoot. And I have questions about it Do you have any figures from yiya studio?. Because I buy both zaku girls, Normal type and Gundam type. can you review and explain it to your audience?.
@@alifwalker Hi, sorry it took me ages to reply here. Unfortunately I don’t own those figures and I don’t have 1/6th scale figures. I’m not in the market to look as I won’t have space 🥲I’m into the Gundam UC timeline, not much into Gundam girls, but those figures look good. What do you think about them?
@@studioaureal.. it's okay.. Back to topic.. Yiya studio figure I don't know about scale 1/6 Because. I'm mostly a random man who sees this figure and buys it. Arutesia normal Yiya studio I don't know about pose or movement. and they have Ahegao head scale. Same things as the Zaku version.. like the tomboy version Arutesia normal version.. I don't know the minus and plus.. But the difference between them just accessories and their clothes are different.. Arutesia normal like form anime Gundam, while Arutesia Zaku version... A Zaku girl?.. I just looked and they are cute and good besides like rem and ram form re:zero. I know you are confused read my comment.. I hope it can help you.
Ayo this Tyranid hit different...Emporer forgive me.
