P.s. I just saw the HMO Mai for the very first time, and I can?t help but think she looks like a young Jane March? Kinda hot, but not really Mai?
Yeah, I got two 1:4 (Kinectiquettes and HMO) and there are so many more. A small scale one sounds nice.

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

May not be 100 percent accurate but it's definitely inspired by it.

That is also not a 100% accurate representation of her battle stance.
Regardless, yes, it is inspired.

1:4 are way too big in my humble abode. 1/7 and smaller are much more acceptable. I have stopped collecting bishoujo for many years. My first was Christie Monteiro, my last, I think, was Sniper Wolf. Then I basically lost interest in statues gradually. I am so glad they are finally make a Mai figure in this line (I?m excited for this one for sure) and successfully pulled me back in!

I own some 1:3 so it is all relative. Like my smaller 1:7 and 1:8 as well.

I like the 3 announcement pictures with the darker background. I think they really popped. The white background ones are really boring.

I don't own any of the recent 1:4 scale Mais, but this one is a no brainer for me. It will fit in perfectly on my Mai only shelf.
