Review: Good Smile Company’s Hayakawa Yuzuko

Hayakawa Yuzuko goes against my usual taste in women. The majority of the time I don't find women who exceed my short stature to be attractive yet I get the feeling Yuzuko here would tower over me as she's easily the tallest figure I own and she's only a 1/8th scale figure! Hey, hair counts! Marge Simpson might be my height but not with that hair she's not. According to Google Marge is 259 cm (8'6") tall! (168 cm or 5'6" without hair).more »

I wonder if she has a thing for redheads?more »

Librorum Prohibitorum Index (禁書目録) from A Certain Magical Index (とある魔術の禁書目録(インデックス)) by Good Smile Company. I don't like this character very much. I'm not into nuns, and she's a very annoying character and is easily over shadowed by Misaka Mikoto (御坂 美琴). Never the less I bought this figure.more »

Is Global's Horo a contender for my worst figure ever or a pleasant surprise? She was definitely not a cheap buy and far from a recommended buy but lets see how she fared.more »

Slightly older figure today but one I've been trying to get for a reasonable price for quite some time. It's Hatsune Miku, everyone's favourite Vocaloid and virtual idol.more »
