anime figure – Gunbies

Hi guys! This going to be my first 1/7 PVC anime figure review! 1/7 Fate Testarossa Plain Clothes Ver. by Alter! I got her during the Philippine Toy Convention 2013 at the Hobby Japan magazine booth! They had a special offer in which they are selling “lucky bags” for only a thousand (Php1000) pesos! At first I thought it maybe a scam or it might not be worth it, but then again, those were real Japanese vendors from Hobby Japan, they came all the way to Japan to promote the seven deadly sins figures such as Leviathan(envy) and the others.

And so me and my friends tried to interview them a bit with regards to what were the contents of the “lucky bag”, they just said that it contained figures, then as we investigated further, we found out that inside the lucky bag contained a Limited Edition 1/7 Fate Testarossa figure, a Limited Edition Nendoroid that I will make a post later on, a seven deadly sins shirt, a seven deadly sin character mini scroll and a seven deadly sins sticker! And so we thought it’s already a super great deal! A PVC statue and a nendoroid for only 1000Php?! That’s beyond crazy and comprehension!

And so me and my friends got the deal, at first I planned to sell them rather than opening them, but upon posting the items for more than a week, nobody took notice of my posting and I also noticed that even one post in ebay that is already pretty old never got sold. There’s no demand sadly, but I’m still happy that I got a figure and a Nendoroid for only 1000Php! So why not open it and keep it in my collection! And so here we are!

I present to you 1/7 Fate Testarossa Plain Clothes Ver. from the 1st movie!:

Though I haven’t watched this anime before, maybe sometime in the future!

She’s really quite simple with a sadlike or meh facial expression. It’s hard to make out what kind of emotion she”s trying to express..

It’s annoying to see a tiny black mark on her left pig tail XD

Let’s get into the details:

I have no idea what the gold triangle she’s holding is, anyone can tell me?

The ribbon on her blouse is nicely sculpted, but like it could break if you bend it.

The frills on her skirt are nice, haven’t seen any paint bleeds.

One thing I’ve always liked about PVC figures that I have seen throughout other blogs are the nails! You can see the pinkish nails on her fingers.

No paint bleeds on her wristband also:

I like the sculpt of her hair, it’s nice and dynamic looking:

No paint bleed on her boots, I like that they made her boots glossy.

Clean thighs, no marks on her knees

Of course, no figure review would be complete without some pantsu shots!

Its amazing the detail of how they sculpt anime figures, from 2d anime to a 3d figure, just amazing!

Nice and glossy!

The base is simple and reflective, better than nothing.

Some close–up shots:

Overall, she’s a simple figure with no extra accessories or extra gimmicks but a nice figure to have because of the sculpt quality and a clean paint job. Had fun in taking photographs of her and its the 1st time I tried using some gimmicks on the background haha! I’m happy I got her for such a low price along with a Nendoroid. That’s it for today! Stay tuned for the Nendoroid post! 😀
