@maggie:
Yeah that's what I'm worried about. The eyes are a huge selling point, I hope they are that nicely hand painted when all is said and done. Megahouse tends to be erratic when it comes to paint QC IMHO.
The color palette they used is kinda subtle which I like it very much but it also means MH should really put attention on the painting QC which is often their weakness. However I have their MMS figures (Rider and Lancer) and both have paintings with better quality than POP. So there is hope.
That chipmunk…
Her face, eyes, the shading remind me of ALTER Momohime. Just realize Elf is 1/7 scale. Otherwise it would be perfect for her to be displayed alongside Momohime and Kongiku.
@2D3Y:
Same here. I was gonna pass when I saw the prototype. Now that she is painted, I'm tempted. She looks sooooooo beautiful. The only thing that worries me is that's MH. She might pale in comparision when diplayed to my 2020 7th Dragon figures, Aoba and my future Tharja….. If only Max Factory did her...
ALTER will be perfect. I also ordered Tharja and have both 7th Dragon figures. They are all in 1/7 so Elf will fit well.
It's rare that Megahouse produce such a great sculpt, so in order to "reward" them, I decided to take a gamble on this one and finally ordered her. Finger crossed she will turn out great. :D
