Erika Sendo 1/8 (Kotobukiya)
By James. Filed in Figures Reviews |Tags: Erika Sendo
After a good looking Erika by Wave , Kotobukiya deciced to made one too . Sadly this one is kinda hard to get as it’s a Kotobukiya shop exclusive … Koto seems to like doing things like this lately …
What made me buy that figure is easy , it’s just the base … it’s nice and Erika seems to like it , looks comfy ^^ . Anyway , the figure itself is correct , the painting is nicely done but the face is a little off compared to the artwork and the cg’s from the game . The hair are done really nicely and the details on the school uniform are quite nice . But that’s all .
So yes it’s far from Koto best works . So is it worth the price and time looking for her ? i would say no if you’re not a fan of the character . But if you like Erika , it’s definitly the best figure of her out there so it’s maybe a definite buy …
The choice is yours 
. I hope the pics are going to help you decide .
more pics under the cut

I like “ERIKA” (I regrettably missed the pre-order:-( ), you are very lucky to possess her it in your collection. She is very beautiful. Young + for the last photo;-)

Ur photos want to make me buy it. >_<
I think the only reason I want it as well is because of her base. It looks like a perfect accessory for any figma. xD

I definitely don’t like Figma’s , got my first one this morning and didn’t like it a lot … review soon , i’m going to be hated by people because i’ll be the first one doing a bad review on Figmas ^^ . Maybe i’ll change my opinion later …
But yes the base must be cute for them ^^

I prefer the other Erika Sendo myself. Although I probably wouldn’t say no to this one if I saw it either.

Well yes the Wave Erika is nice but i don’t like the pose too much , maybe too classical ?
I hope Max Factory or Goodsmile will produce a nice Erika someday

I was in Akiba last week and visited Kotobukiya Shop @ Radio Kai Kan practically everyday. To my surprise, for one evening they had 4 or 5 boxes! Surplus perhaps? Needless to say I bought one and the next day they were all gone again. xD
