Alter 1/8 Mina Tsukishiro PVC Review

June 16, 2009

Here’s Alter version of Mina Tsukishiro, standing at a good 20 cm (1/8 scale), I ended up buying this figure at  HLJ because they were having a 1st anniversary sale of their launch of their co.jp site. Mina Tsukishiro figure is based on the drama Densha Otoko

The plot follows the life of Yamada after a chance encounter with Saori, when he rescues her from a drunken man on the train. Saori sends him a set of Hermès tea cups as a thank you. Relying on advice from users on a website he is able to find the courage to change and eventually confess his feelings to Saori. The drama is filled with various dream sequences in which the characters use to portray their fantasies.

Its a good watch if you never saw this drama before, anyway on to the review…

Surprisingly this carrot hammer has a metal like handle.

Her ears are bendable, but I wouldn’t want to keep bending them back and forth.

Nothing much to say about her carrot boosters, I flicked it made a clack sound.

Overall this figures is great, she is a solid figure and worthwhile buy. The only con I would to put is the base, its made out of cheap pastic. I wish Alter could had done something to make the base look nice, its just a basic white pastic base.

Here’s some more pictures and also testing out my lighting.  ヽ(´▽`)/

    Nice figure. Wanted to get her, but she fell from the list. You’re right about Alter’s base(s), they’re always so plain compared to GSC’s bases.
