Many Eva sets don't live up to the promise. Like, I actually thought the concept of humanized angels was awesome...and then you see the Chromosome XX series and think, "Why didn't they add the final X and call it a day?" My poor Tabris! Sachiel is also very pretty, but her nipples aren't covered. |

I was most weirded out when I saw a figure of Asuka in a wedding dress. For whatever reason, that one bothered me far more than anything else I'd seen. Also, it's a little annoying that there are so many Rei and Asuka variants, but not as many for Misato. |

The Transformers DID have its own embarrassing loli fetishism gimmick not too long ago, though: if you want to keep your sanity do not click here
Oh, and part of me wonders if the cat tail parts "insert" into, um...wow, that train of thought needs to be derailed so that everyone on board suffers eternally. |

I don't post all that much obviously, but it's great to hear that this column will be weekly now. I'm so excited~. I don't get a chance to buy figures as often as I'd like, so I like that I can read reviews on something I want or might've missed.
Oh...wow. I never thought about that, but now that you mention it...*trauma* |

I knew this topic would turn into a debate.
...Why is it a debate? Are you people retarded? Must you blindly protect something that is either Asuka or Rei-related? If someone dropped a turd, and drew a cute lil Rei smiley on that deuce, would you display it proudly?
Apparently these would... ...Cause they already have... |

Eh... what? It's hardly been a debate. Most of the discussion so far has been good natured, if a bit creepy and disturbing at times. At least until your post, it was good natured. EDIT: Ah, I spoke too soon. Still, I think you were being unfair to the guys you quoted. Last edited by Mad_Scientist on Sun Jan 25, 2009 9:29 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I find this article quite hilarious. Why'd you waste money on such a 'bad' purchase? It's obvious this is aimed at certain parts of the population. Also, modifications/showing skin is quite common among moe hobbies, especially figures. Lastly, there's an obvious difference between figures and action figures. Still figures are meant for display, not to play with. If action figures are your thing, then buy Figmas or Revoltechs.
That last picture is also really childish, showing no respect towards all those who was involved with the end product. Really disappointing to see an article like this from such a wide-reaching anime site like this. |

Saw this a few weeks ago at a hobby shop that opened near me recently. Thought, "W...T...F...", then just turned and walked away. Then I saw the Queen's Blade boxed figurines (which apparently came with a little note explaining that their outerwear was meant to be removable), and boggled.
I don't get this place sometimes. |

Maybe he bought them specifically for the purpose of razzing on them mercilessly, such as when people intentionally seek out a "bad" movie with the intent of mockery. I seriously doubt the reviewer had any perverse sexual desires he wanted satisfied by staring at two Eva girls dressed in embarrassing cat-like get-ups. |

Nah. More like oatmeal. It's up to us to put the "flavor" into him. |
