What's funny to me is that their sale price is still more expensive than the retail price was for this piece.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Thanks! Yeah, the wait has been almost unbearable. I remember seeing the first people getting theirs 14 months ago. Hope I won't have to wait this long again for the 1/3 2B.

Incoming! Square Enix - Nier Automata 2B - 2P (White Version)

Just received this piece in yesterday from Square Enix directly and I'm blown away on so many levels.

First, I was a little disappointed in buying the 2B solo regular version 8 months ago. I just didn't take to that piece once I unboxed it. Then SE came out with the 2P version and I was willing to give that one a try, even though it cost more than the regular version, for the same statue.

When I unboxed it, my jaw hit the floor regarding the paint apps. The paint apps on this piece are straight "Sublime"! I've never seen a white pearlescent paint app applied to a piece that has brought realism to the point that 2B's boots literally looks like "real leather" from afar and from up close. The pearlescent paint brings out the depth and shading, coupled with the brilliant sculpting which brings this piece up to "home-run" status.

If I had a gripe about this piece.....I wish the size of this piece was bigger. It says 1/4 scale, but IMHO, this statue feels and looks like a large 1/5 scale piece to me (I could be wrong). Also, the paint on her back does not match the paint on her legs perfectly, but it's not significant IMHO.

All and all, this is one of the best paint apps that I've seen in a long time. Pictures can never do this piece justice; you have to see this statue in person to appreciate the level of depth, shading and paint detail.

Congrats to all who ordered this one; my guess is that you will be very pleased at the quality, sculpt and overall detail that Square Enix put into this piece. Please excuse the quality of my photos and happy collecting to all!

Not gonna lie, this version looks like somebody forgot to paint over half of the model and the stockings are not really well done either, I guess theyre not used to tanned forced characters
