New Girls get!
Oh what a wonderful day! I have my day off and the postman delivers 2 small boxes from HLJ^^.The Content and my EPIC Fail is right after the Jump!
Its the long awaited Kanu Figma plus Cammy and Lucia that ive bought for 70% off at HLJ`s Clearance Sale!In the end i paid more for the figma than for the other 2 figures
Ive only had experience with Revoltechs so far and i was quite excited about my first Figma.They feel alot more like PVC Figures in contrast to the plastic feel of Revoltechs.Kanu feels really fragile compared to Asuka/Rei/Revy and i am quite scared to break any of the joints.Ive read about the weak joints in alot blogs and tried to be as careful as possible.While all the joints are still intact i failed in another department: Kanus spear.I havent had any problems with Reis Lance of Longius so far but i already scratched off alot of paint of the spear when i tried to put it into Kanus hand.The paint is now in Kanus hand and the spear shows ugly white plastic.I didnt use any force or did anything else wrong…The paint just went off.I wonder if other people are having the same problem with Kanus Spear…
I display Kanu without her spear right now because i dont wanna scratch more paint off.If anyone has a hint on how to fix this ill be grateful.
Ill post reviews of the figures soon.


Howdy! Im Blowfish a german afficiando of figures,manga,anime and anything else that is hailing from the land of the rising sun.

That sucks about Kanus spear, sorry to hear she turned out that way… I don’t have any paint problems with any of my figmas yet. As I really don’t know what to do if paint comes off i don’t have any sound advice right now, but if I find out anything that would help I’ll let you know.

@Persocom
I dont think that this will happen too often.Id just like to know why the paint went off….

That’s odd. I haven’t seen paint coming off that badly before. A lot of people are having problems with their figmas recently. Has it got to do with the quality check?

Sorry for your paint problem
the lance is not separated in two part ? to put the hand between them and put all together ?
And i saw the Cammy , nearly bought her , the price was great ^^
Nice buy , now we’re waiting for the pics :p

@Otaku Dan

@James
Yes it is.You cant push the spear through the hands if you dont take it of.The paint came off during that process.

My first figma was probably.. Konata… Lol.. ^^. Good buys, though I feel their clearance sale always causes you to do impulse buys T_T

Ah nice it’s Cammy. Good old Street Fighter! I wonder why she’s pink, though?
