My Figures

Hatsune Miku - Flower Fairy Nemophila

This Miku noodle stopper features a white and slightly pearlescent leotard outfit decorated with blue nemophila "baby blue eyes" flowers, frills, filigree patterns, and pearls. Her hair flows behind her almost like a waterfall, with a gradient from Miku-teal to slightly transparent blue, and pools together at the bottom to make the counterweight that allows the noodle stopper to sit against a ledge.

I bought her on sale for $20 from Cr*nchyR*ll. Actually, the website listed her as in-stock, yet she shipped as if it was a pre-order. The fig didn't ship for weeks after purchasing, unlike what one would expect from an already in-stock item. I never even got a confirmation email, so I assumed something was wrong with the order. This led me to request and receive a refund, but after getting my money back, the figure ended up shipping anyways. This was after I had purchased the figure again this time from GoodSmile for $22, and GS doesn't accept refunds so I was stuck with that one too. So I actually have two of this figure and gave the other one to my non-figure-collecting sister. There are some very slight differences most notably in the paint and face, but overall they are identical. I can't remember, but one of them arrived with a print of the art that the figure was based off of, which was nice. I believe it was the CR one but again I'm not completely sure. But even with that, the whole debacle made me a lot less likely to purchase from CR again.

When I first saw this fig, I originally didn't like the face at all. The outfit though is really pretty and cute, and I thought it was unfortunate that with such a cute outfit the face would be so off-putting. I wasn't going to purchase her until I saw her for that cheap of a price, and decided that I liked the outfit enough to buy her. I thought I'd get used to the face too after a while, and I have. While its distant stare is a little weird, I feel like it's almost whimsical in a way. Mysterious? IDK. When I saw the artwork it was based off, I was able to see what the artist was going for, and somehow it was a bit more difficult to put into physical form. But it's still really cute. The outfit being like a leotard with opaque white tights feels really unique, and I absolutely love the color of the flowers. Overall the figure is very cute and I don't regret buying her, even with all the issues during the purchasing process.

Hatsune Miku - Splash Parade

This figure features Miku in a blue top and shorts, with a lime green transparent shirt, along with a blue and transparent lime green hat. Her hair starts normal at the tops of her pigtails, and becomes transparent, resembling water at the bottom. Her hair also features many aquatic decorations, such as a beach ball, life preserver, and decals of fish/coral/other sea creatures at the bottom water portion of her hair. She comes with a detachable water gun which also features the transparent green material. The small anklet on her right leg is actually loosely attached, and can be moved freely around her ankle.

This figure I received as a birthday gift from my sister, although I was the one who requested the figure. I'm not positive about the price as I wasn't the one who purchased it, but I believe she was about $30. The thing that stuck out to me the most about this figure was the water effect on her hair. As someone who loves unnecessary and impractical fish tanks in abnormal places, this was one of my dream figures to own. I also really liked the transparent top, as I thought it was unique and fit the summer aesthetic as well. Her face and pose are cute as well, and all the little accessories scattered about the whole figure are cute as well. My favorite part of the figure though is definitely the hair. I'm glad I was able to get her while she was available and this was a very nice birthday gift. She is also probably one of the most photogenic figures I own.
