This girl is my first ever quarter scale figure and what a figure she is. The concept and sculpt is really something. The boys at kinetiquettes really have a future ahead of them especially if they manage to maintain their current level of customer service. The tassles on mine came in pieces and while it was an issue which could easily be remedied with some super glue kinetiquettes sent me two brand new tassles.
That said, this piece is not perfect. As clutch mentioned the disparity between the prototype bandied about in their promotional shots versus the actual figure is noticeable.
While the sculpt itself is great, the paintjob on the final figure is just not of the same standard. Her eyes seem too, for lack of a better word, sunken and there seems to be little to no shading done on the face and body.
I do not own and have not seen other pieces by the company in person so I cant really compare. All in all I'm a happy customer... at least until HMO's Mai is released
