Got my Sakura today, she's really great but i have a few niggles.

1. I don't know why she is more expensive than Naruto was ( she cost me £25 more ), i felt Naruto was a lot more statue and detailed and his packaging was amazing. Sakura feels like she should have at least been the same price or less.

2. The swords feel and look really cheap and some of them have had the handles put on at slightly off angles which isn't good at all, i think these should have been metal or at least a harder plastic.

Other than those two niggles the rest of her is really really great and i'm super happy with her. I just really expect flawless and super high quality from Tsume now and this just falls short of the mark, especially those swords.

Pics later.

Pics as promised. She really is a fantastic piece still, i just expect the best from Tsume and the swords take a little bit of that quality away.

Just wondering why you don't have the left hand sword standing up?

I did have two of the swords standing up vertical at first but after looking at it for a while i decided to have it sticking out at a lower angle, both sticking up seemed a little too symmetrical for my tastes lol

I like it when statues come with loose bits and no real designated place to put them, you can put them exactly how you like them

I think it is a question of quality control. My swords came straight, no issues there. I guess I was lucky.

It's not the swords that aren't straight its how they have put the handles on, from what i can see in your picture yours are the same also so they are probably all like this.

Still no excuse for using such flimsy plastic for the swords.
