Got one of my grails today!! Wave's Tabris figure designed by Mine Yoshizaki from 2006. Unboxing and thoughts under the cut.
I've got the smaller version of her but I've wanted the bigger one for so long. I got her brand new in box for £39 (plus £18 shipping & fees)... It wasn't until after I paid that I saw this on the listing.
FUUUUUCK. if she's yellowed I am cooked. I've been freaking out about this for like 3 weeks, so when she arrived and the plastic was kind of yellowed I thought I would have to resort to retrobriting her or something. anyway the inner packaging was crazy on this
(Its only got that slit because I took a pic after trying to open lol)
she was so hard to get out. but my husband managed it
SHES NOT YELLOW!!!! I was so happy. literally brand new, she's so cute.
she comes with a leaflet that has info on her production which is so cool.
her base is so weird and cute. I love the orange.
her wings were hard to put in but it wasn't really a big problem. she's supposed to have a small support for her wings but she's standing up totally fine without it so I'm just leaving it in the box
in the end I'm really happy. she's so cute even if she is small. the reason I ended up looking her up is because I saw her for sale irl for like £168 and I was like, there is NO way she is worth that much, but seeing her irl sparked my love for her again so I'm glad I happened to look her up.
