Take off and figure analysis

elcome to my little experimental blog.  I'm italian, so sometimes you could see some grammar nightmare but have patience :)

I had make this little personal space for talk about my precious anime, manga and more than that my beloved fate testarossa... sure also for random rant and lulz with my friends.

For the first post, i want to talk about this little beauty i had order some time ago from good smile company,  and make some considerations with the massive-popoular Alter shin Sonic Form

FATE SWIMSUIT GSC



       
  • HAIR:  this element is maybe the only one that's common in the whole figure.  Just a plan yellow, not sculpted or shaded; the most picky could say the spikes remember an octopus, but  honestly the major part of the figure i had saw until now are like  that, for a plan pose and considering the the overall quality is fine. I love that hairstyle and the pair of ribbon at the end of her tails and tied to her arm; the hand over her head with pictured nails

       
  • FACE:  the face is very well done, all proportion are perfect. Good choice on the mouth size, not huge like a lot of others i saw, the expression is very similar to the original fanart and give a peaceful feeling. For the prospective is better look at her from the profile, other position seems have some small bad details (probabily depend from the image too).

       
  • BUST:  the images are talking for me here! Fate's gorgeous appeal is magnified by a mini swimsuit and a superb pair of breast well sculpted! Absolutely perfect from any angle and point of wiew.  Anthoner strong point is the stomach sculpted in every detail with a marvelous impression of deep and evidence of the muscles.

       
  • LEGS: these are the most beautiful thing i saw in a figure until now! The shaded are perfect with the very natural pose and the shapes of the bones... the result in 1/4 scale is incomparable.

       
  • ASS & PAINTSU:  the shaded on the swimsuit are good like in the upped par, the form seems very realistic and squeezed into the mini swimsuit... don't make any sudden movement Fate, i beg you!

       
  • FEET: the superb feet are sculpted very well, you can see cleary every single finger. the pictured nails and sandals give a stylish touch

In the end, the best fate figure ever in my opinion, without a single weakness. Every detail seem shine and bright thanks her huge proportions, 44 cm of pure pleasure.

ALTER SHIN SONIC FORM



       
  • HAIR:  Speechless! Without a doubt the best figure hairs ever! They are greatly vaporous and the felling of movement is fantastic! even that alone is worthy the half of the price.

       
  • FACE:  the epic stare and the expression give me the shivers, i can almost fell the excitement of the battle, i can't really imagine a better engaging Fate.

       
  • BODY BLOCK:  let's see the major "defect" of this figure. The Barrier jacket is good in every detail with bright colors, but is everything absolutly plan without a shade or a sigle muscle in evidence... the legs seems a pair of block with just the knee showed with a round shape.  The pose of the arms also are an hindrance for the visibily of the whole figure, Alter had lost itself just on the details of the face and the colour; also stick the metal pipe right in the feets is the worst choice.  Too bad!

       
  • EXTRA & BASE: the figure comes with a good set of swords, included an huge zamber.  Matter of taste here, just the twin sword is enough and fit the pose more than anything else, other are useless. One big critic goes to the base, that thing is a rettangle too huge for just host the figure.  Such a waste of space is a problem for who had a small place where put his the figure

In the end two of masterpiece especially for a Fate fan like me. The shin sonic haven't completely satisfied me, but still worth of the price... but if you can get only one like me the smisuit wins in overall (sure depend on what you want see in a figure anyway). With that said, exactly why everyone on the web is obessed with the shin? the rewiews and the people for that are 10/1 confronted to the swimsuit. An 1/4 Feito deserve more respect!
