Black ★ Rock Shooter 1/8 PVC figure Strength

This is a review about a 1/8 PVC figure of the anime 'Black ★ Rock Shooter' of the character 'Strenght'. Strength is a quite mysterious character of the series. It's a real puzzle  who she actually is. But theories imply that Strenght is the "other self" of Yuu in the series.

This figure is really hard to talk about since the character doesn't have a lot screen time. Even so, Good smile Company did a very good job to bring this minor character to life. Her mechanic arms are as detailed as in the anime which makes it a real eyecatcher. Her outfit isn't that big of a challenge since it's rather simple, but nevertheless it's done very well and doesn't contain any errors. Last but not least, the face is sculpted and painted so amazingly well and looks so soft.

Q U A L I T Y
Good Smile Company is known for his high quality figures and this one is again a key example of that. The sculpting is done so smooth and curvy and is so beautiful to look at. The black colours are also painted very well, not that black is an challenging colour to paint, but even so it's done well. The thing that lifts this figure to an high level are the mechanic arms, no doubt about that. They are so detailed with scratches and a real mechanic appearance. Even so the quality is excellent the price I paid was still a lot for a rather simple figure. I say simple because the figure doesn't contain much colour, and the pose isn't that dynamic. But I would be lieing if I said this is a bad figure because it's really pretty.

The figure was in one piece with the two mechanic arms separate together with the groundplate/sculpture. The figure could be very easily placed on the ground plate and attaching the arms was very easy. I didn't had any construction problems with this figure whatsoever.
