Queen’s Blade

As promised, here’s the rest of my Queen’s Blade figures! I’m not doing the cast-offs on these even though I can, because once they’re off, it’s difficult and time-consuming to get them back on.
Queen’s Blade is a series of tabletop role-playing books focused on 1-on-1 combat between pre-made characters. So, like D’n'D meets Street Fighter. The books and characters were popular and started a line of figures based on the characters – as well as integrating some of SNK’s characters such as Mai Shiranui and Samurai Spirits’ Iroha into their line-up
-
- First, there’s the regular version of Gate Keeper Alice.
-
- She’s got the pair of gun-knife things, one in each hand. Though the blue one’s a bit hard to see.
-
- Here’s another cute profile
-
- And finally a nice pantsu shot for you pervs out there.
-
- This one is Melona, the Thousand-Faces Assassin
-
- In the game, she’s able to take any form, but this is her default state, soft and gooey
-
- She’s also unique in that her pantsu (or what passes for such) come off as well
-
- As much as I like her, she’s got a major flaw… that ribbon of goo around her leg is covering up a big seam :(
-
- Next up is Airi, the devil maid. The stilt things on her base are meant to imply that she’s floating…
-
- I really love the combination of cute maid outfit, innocent looking face and the huge scythe.
-
- The detail’s no less intricate from behind either
-
- And in this you can see why I didn’t take their clothes off… it’s so hard to get them to stay on again. Tabs and things pop out when you least expect…
-
- Ninja Leader Shizuka!
-
- Like most kunoichi, she’s dressed as impractically as possible.
-
- But that’s okay, cause she looks great anyway.
-
- She even looks nice from the back.
-
- Here’s Elina, Captain of the Imperial Guard.
-
- Being an earlier edition, her details aren’t as nice as later ones. But I still like her.
-
- The spear was originally just a single piece of plastic. The painting I did myself.
-
- She’s got something sticky to her that collects the dust on her hair, maybe due to the paint that was used.
-
- Finally here’s Nyx, another older entry in the series.
-
- I really like the style and shininess of her dress
-
- It makes her rear shiny too. That wand of hers frightens me…
-
- Overall she’s a lovely witchy-poo.
Also, I’m really upset about this figure: Mai Shiranui Beach Version.
She looks wonderful here, doesn't she? But she's made by Aizu Project, who only does Cold Casts, which are much more expensive than regular PVC figures. As much as I love her, it's not enough to justify $170+shipping
