My November 2024 Japan toy haul finally got here! I am super happy with all these, particularly Riku! He turned out so beautiful! I feel like even nicer than the Static Arts one by Square Enix, from 2017, if I am not mistaken. I only own one of those sadly, and he's somewhere deep in my closet, so I can't compare. However, I feel this UDF looks so much nicer in person, and he's quite smaller (if I am not mistaken). I hope they make one based on KHIII as well. I got one Riku and one Sora from the KHI release back then, since those aren't my favorite designs, but I like KHII designs so much, I had to get two of Riku.

Just a few repetitive, craptastic quick photos of my Adorable Arts Sephiroth and Cloud Strife figures. I love Sephiroth, I wish they hadn't given him a side-glace, or at least given an optional head-sculpt, like they did with Cloud. I understand they gave Sephy his wing, but I can't say I wouldn't have preferred another head instead, or even multiple faceplates. His hair gets in the way of posing the head, unlike Mr. Terrible-Attitude-Strife, who has a very nice range of motion at the head. Sephy's luscious hair impedes any movement if any -- which is the case with most of the figures based on him at any scale, that have any movement whatsoever.

It was kind of a pain in the back, switching Sephy's arms and placing his wing on. I am not sure if it's intended to keep his arm lowered when he has the wing on. However, it can be done, so that's what I am keeping him like for a while. The wing is a bit heavy, so there's a support piece for it. Which I won't be using, because I know I'll lose it. However, I will keep the wing on for only a short while. I don't want to keep switching pieces, so I'll probably just display them the way they are now (default from box). I decided not to switch any parts on Cloud, because it was a bit annoying to do on Sephy. I know I always complain about lack of having optional parts, and now that I do, I don't want to switch them out. However, I am not a fan of how they decided to tackle the peg or the way the pieces attach. I can see it was a decent solution for such tiny figures, but it's annoying. It might just be an issue with my Sephy, and maybe it's smoother on other figs (maybe even on Cloud), but I am keeping them with the parts they have on now forever! lol!

My February 2024 toy haul is here! Yay! Super happy with all these, of course over the moon with my Adorable Arts Sephys! As well as the tiny, tiny Sesshomaru hugcot! The Sasuke stuff is always welcomed; I am happy that I finally got one of those fancy acrylic panels, but sad I won't be seeing it, because it's sealed, and I'm a weirdo when it comes to sealed things... >___>;;; The Sasuke Colosseum fig I got from Amzn, and sadly the box is not mint. I got a few other prize figures I've been after for a long time (Len K.), and a double of the Araragi one, because I need doubles if not triples in my life... Lol! The Lulu acrylic stand has movable eyes, pretty cool! Also, super happy with the Artorias, tiny-chibified version of him! (:
