Katsu's Korner: Miku Miku Kagami Nendoroid Review

Okay gang, here is my very first review of a figure. I posted a teaser pic yesterday, and here are a few more to accompany my review. First off, I have say that I really like this Nendoroid. It comes with 2 leeks, assorted arm and leg parts, and 2 extra faces. I believe the faces on the other Kagami Nendoroids are interchangeable with this one....but since I don't own one, you'll just have to take my word for it.

The main thing I like about this figure is the fact that her ponytails articulate. It would have sucked big time if they were fixed in one boring position. The paintjob on this is really well done. I haven't found too many places where the paint was flaking off. I think this is the most balanced Nendoroid I own, too. By that, I mean, she's quite easy to pose and not have her fall over. My Tsukasa Nendoroid is very top heavy (her head!), so if you tilt the head in any direction, she's likely to topple over. I also liked the different expressions on each of the 3 faces that are included with this release. You have the happy face, the sad/worried face, and the...um...on-the-verge-of-crying face? Oh yeah, the puffy stickers that come with it look like they'd be fun to apply to Kagami....I'm just afraid of using them, for fear of not being able to use them again once you stick 'em on. I also don't want any paint to peel off. Am I just being too protective? Anyways, that's the end of that....On to the pictures!

Here's Kagami at the start of the shoot. She seems quite chipper this morning :)
