Queen's Rebellion P2-color Ymir webshop exclusive


Here we have an exclusive white color repaint Iron-Dwarf Princess from Queen's Blade continuous story, Queen's Rebellion Ymir. Spotting a new outfit.


This Ymir figure came with 5 point of articulation. Mostly on the arms and neck for slight adjustment to the poses. She also came with 2 interchangeable faces and 2 combat axes she is currently holding.


The workmanship on the sculpt and detail painting on this figure is amazing, as you can see from review pictures I took above and below.


Like almost all the Queen's Blade series character figure. They come with removable clothing for those who like to display her with more skin.

Beware to those who have one of this or planning to get one for your collection, the paint from the back portion her skirt are known to rub off on her skin when trying to remove it. Handle the skirt removal with care so the paint doesn't get rub onto the skin area by incident.

Revoltech Queen's Blade Nowa review.

Pick up my Revoltech QB Nowa today from the postal office and here is a small review of what to expect.

Nowa set consist of 4 facial expression, 2 set of clothing, 2 pairs of hands, 2 front hair piece, her monkey companion, combat staff, Revoltech Queen's Blade display stand, container and point token.
Do be careful with the staff when you try to pull them apart, there is report cases where the small peg within the staff break when trying to remove the upper part by force. If its to tight to remove, best thing to do is heat it up with some warm water *not boiling* or use a hair dryer to soften it enough for removal.Moving on to the poseability, somewhat limited in movement around the hips because of the weird design utilizing Revoltech joints like all the other Revoltech Queen's Blade girls. Ankle movement are also quite limited because of the large cloth piece around it.
Upper body articulation are really good. No obstruction on the neck or shoulders.
The monkey come with a peg that can be dock into different area on Nowa figure. There is a hole in the hood, 2 on her pony tail, 2 on her skirt backpack and 2 more on the end of staff itself.
The fun gimmick about Revoltech Queen's Blade line is that you can remove the clothing and expose her naughty bits, this is more of an adult collectible figure.

The gauntlets and boots are molded on to her arms and legs, so you can't totally make her naked. Oh, Nowa is also the only girl that came without panties. Something to do with Elve that doesn't believe in the need of undergarments.

Here is her combat damaged clothing for dynamic effect. Of course, you can remove all the clothing and make her go commando for display if that suit your personal taste more.



In closure of this simple review, I would say Nowa is a really well made action figure from Kaiyodo. Flexible poseability and come of lots of accessories to swap around. Worth picking up for any Queen's Blade series fans.

My personal corner.

A little insight to my current collections. Currently have some Transformers, Gunpla, Revoltech, Figma, Nendoroid, Myth Cloth, Busou Shinki and a few figurines here and there.


Here is a view of my desktop. Some build-in selves for my stuffs and a few more around my PC.



















On to my glass cabinet where most my collection are in. Here is where I keep all my Figma and Busou Shinki in.

Really help cutting down dusting them off weekly with a proper cabinet for display.

The cabinet itself is almost fill up and I don't think my collection would be slowing down anytime soon it seems. Lots of stuff will be release in Japan on the up coming months.
























I will start review some items from my collection and news on toys from Japan in the future.

and here come another blogger.

My very first blog and post entry. Nothing much to say or talk about for now.

I'll have something up this coming Monday.
