Xenosaga: KOS-MOS
March 23rd, 2009 @ 6:56 pm by KunoichiZero
As one of my favorite characters ever, I have several figures of Xenosaga’s KOS-MOS. All of them are by Alter, in my opinion one of the better producers out there.
-
- First, in order of appearance in the games, is KOS-MOS’s original incarnation from Xenosaga 1.
-
- The way she’s turned gives a really dynamic impression, something I love in figures.
-
- Here you can see the pistol, only one of many weapons she uses in the game
-
- And from the back you can see her beautifully flowing hair. KOS-MOS is the only character aside from Melona who’s figures I have who has translucent hair.
-
- And finally from the right. I tried to get a detail of her back but there was just no good angle to wedge the camera in there.
-
- KOS-MOS goes through several transformations or ‘upgrades’ in the course of the game. This is her final form, “Version 4″
-
- Here you can see her signature triple gatling gun. The Gnosis don’t have a chance.
-
- Again, her translucent hair is flowing behind her. Though this version lacks Ver.1′s pearlescent quality, which is unfortunate.
-
- Another view of her hair and legs from behind.
-
- I tried to get a closer shot of her back to show the detail of her spine armor. This is also present on Ver.1. Sorry about the blurryness…
-
- And finally here’s a shot from the right side.
-
- Lastly we have KOS-MOS’s special swimsuit version, a lovely bit of fanservice which was unlockable in Xenosaga 3 by transferring your completed Xenosaga 2 savedata over.
-
- I didn’t take any comparison shots but this version is HUGE. She stands almost twice as tall as the other two.
-
- Again, here’s the cascade of her translucent hair, but without the pearlescence of Ver.1. Truly, that is my only complaint.
-
- KOS-MOS is gorgeous in any form, really…
-
- The larger size of this model allows for some very nice details such as her belybutton and sculpted toenails. Which of course leads to the question, “Why does an android have things like a bellybutton and toenails?”
-
- Or, why is she even wearing a swimsuit for that matter? Ohwell, repeat to yourself, “it’s just this game, I should really just relax.”
And with that, we say goodbye to KOS-MOS, the lovely android with the power to make little girls gay. Goodnight, sweet princess.
