Thanks! I try to do more common photos in the beginning of the review so people can take a clearer look at how the figure is without photo editing. I leave the more “artsy” type photos at the end of the reviews. I’m not too familiar with Xecty’s character but glad it’s a faithful adaptation…

The figure is definitely a little costly, don’t think the cost reflects the figure although the amount of detail on her clothing is well done.

Her ass definitely could’ve received more definition – it’s just not round and perky enough, then again I’d be displaying Xecty with her skirt on so I guess it doesn’t matter much. =p

Great work ! Pictures are beautiful. My favorite are last, outdoor shooting. Xecty is not my favorite character, but this is a faithfull addaptation with great expression

I like this figure a lot, although I think I’m going to pass on it unless it gets a less expensive stateside release; Amazon has it priced at $80 which is kinda nuts, being that I got Kotobukiya’s Blanc Neige figure for around $45 at my local comic book store, and they always charge a bit more than what I could get it for online. Xecty’s outfit looks great, kinda like an officer’s dress uniform crossed with a cheerleader outfit. I like her face too; I’m not familiar with the Shining Wind series but I have the feeling she’s the quiet, laconic type.

I wish they’d given her hips and butt more definition, though. I usually go for the cast-off option if available but for this figure, I’d let her keep her skirt.

Yeah, I don’t think this figure is for everyone. But I think she’s pretty cool and a welcome part of my collection. =D

I love when a review writes itself, those are the greatest.
And the easiest, helps save so much time! There are so many other figures I wanna write about! =P

Yup, working on the Bible Black Rika review at the moment.

I don’t think I’ll get the EVE version, I don’t like the horn on her head, and relaly don’t like the hair there either. But the hair seems alrightish vs the horn.

I love when a review writes itself, those are the greatest.

Shiraki Rika from Bible Black?

Will you get the EVE version as well? I think that one might turn out better than this version.

I found this review really easy to write, everything just flowed right through from brain to keyboard – I think I’m on a roll! Gotta keep the momentum going – next up will be the Shiraki Rika review. LOL

Whith the amount of detail on her body, I wouldn’t be surprised no one notices the face. I probably wouldn’t have taken notice either if not for the macro photos. Tony definitely have some really nice artwork.
