Limit Gunz 1/6 (Art Storm/Lilics) review
By James. Filed in Figures Pics, Figures Reviews |Tags: Art Storm
More under the cut (updated with more pics)
Finally this one is out , after some delay and i believe it’s going to deserve her , as a lot of people already forgot about her or/and canceled order to get some other figure . So the question is : is she worth the long wait ? Do i need to buy her ? I guess it’s your choice but if you still want her , i don’t think you’ll be disapointed at all .
I only see one change compared to the proto shoots , the blue paint on the big gun is less glossy than the retail version , but that could be only because of the pictures . The rest is just like promised and that’s always a good thing .
The figure herself looks really nice and she takes quite a lot of space , thanks to her really big gun . The painting is nicely done , no visible flaws or dots and the colors are well chosen . It really looks like the original work (is she from a manga ? the illustration is on her box and it’s quite nice) , only the face is a little different . The best parts of this nice girl are , of course the big gun but not only that … the frilled socks , cute long sexy shaped legs and her beautiful but messy blue hair , nicely painted with gradiant blue and good shading . Her face is quite great too , i totaly love her sweet expression and her so awesome blue eyes . The big gun is less sexy but greatly detailled too , lots of details on it and it looks really good . She has another gun in her left hand but it looks a little plain compared to the big one .
I nearly canceled my order , as i was feeling bored just looking at the proto shoots but i still got her , and i don’t regret at all . She’s way better in real and it’s great to have her in a collection , she’s big and with the help of the colors and the big gun , she stands out , a total looker . She is sexy and awesome , thanks to a great overall look and a nice pose . The only minor flaw is that she doesn’t fit totally on the base , the feets are hard to put in . But it’s not that bad , she seems to be fine anyway .
Great looking figure , quite big and impressive , with nice colors and details . Sexy AND awesome . For me a definite must buy .
9.5/10
</a
Another review of her at ELTWorld
The review for Caroline is going to be online tomorrow , my pics were bad , she is too big and i can’t take pics of her in full in my room (because i use a 70-200 lens) . So i’ll be doing it again tomorrow . Sorry for the delay and thanks for reading ^^

What a relief!
I really feared that she turns out not so good after my first experience with ArtStorm.I thought more than once about canceling my preorder.Im glad i didnt do that!
Now ill just have to wait until archonia has her in stock.
I think that the gun is sexy aswell XD
In fact the Gun was the main attraction for me ^ ^

nice figurine, the socks and shoes details are nice
I dont have any figurines made by Art Storm, but glad to see their quality is quite nice
with 70-200 lens should need less than 2m to get full view of figurine (using 70), my lens is 150mm (can’t change the focus length), some cases i had to shoot it from 3m distance :p taking picture from higher angle will also help if you have small room

@ Blowfish : i’m sorry , i prefer girls than guns :p
but yeah , i was pretty sure you were gonna buy her ^^
@ ron : i have to be at 1.3 meters for the minimal focus distance and my room is not a lot bigger . so i can’t get full pics of big figures
. Figures from Art Storm are not always good , beware , i usually don’t like the paint job

Je l’avais complétement oubliée celle-ci… C’est cruel
de toutes façons c’est pas une loli alors… 
Mais c’est intéressant de savoir qu’Art Storm peut faire quelque chose de bien niveau finitions 
On n’a pas à se priver si un proto est intéressant… donc ^^.
Très belles photos

I only care about the gun rofl. That was the biggest reason I never preordered her, though the cost was another.

gawd i love that gun. really can’t wait for mine to arrive but i decided to leave that order with kid nemo… will probably have to wait another month orz.
i think those are some of the most detailed shoes i’ve seen on a figure! funny it’d be one the one where the main focus is the huge gun ^^;

Those shoes do look pretty cool. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were steel toed. I love her gun and confident pose. ‘grats!

Une demoiselle aux détails assez impressionnants (surtout sur l’arme), mais dont je ne suis absolument pas fan. Et non, tu ne me feras pas acheter
Tes photos en tout cas la mette bien en valeur, quoi qu’un fond plus coloré aurait pu être sympa aussi (raleuse je sais).
(moi je suis pour les fonds flashy xD)

As most ppl already mentioned, I find the gun is the standout of this figure. I love big guns and the best thing of all, she has 2 instead of one. ^^

Très sympa la demoiselle. En plus 1/6 et bleue.
J’aime beaucoup les photos où tu alternes le flou sur l’arme, puis ensuite sur la figurine.

My only problem is… i just want the the weapo n
not the girl, so i’m not ordering her lol
The weapon itself remind me of Blitz Gundam Weapon
nice review though

The HUGE weapon is very eye-cacthing. I love girls with weapon so she looks delicious to me. XD

@ Caziro : reste que je ne fais toujours pas confiance a Art Storm/Lilics , qui est capable de tres bien comme de tres moyen (Canal ?)
@Panther : sorry , the girl cannot be shipped alone , the girl is “free” with it ^^
@ ELTboy : yeah she is
@ meronpan : kid nemo = does not ship in france or are very late
i don’t like them :’(
@ Jem : i prefer the gun than the shoes but yeah ^^
@ Otaku Dan : agree , i want the same gun at 1/1 scale
@ Yuuu : normal elle est trop habillée a ton gout :p
@ optic : yes , buy her ^^ (even if she’s not in a swimsuit)
@ Vixion : Oh yes i can see the similarity with the blitz gundam ^^ . but i still prefer the girl AND the weapon :p
@ chrono kun : 1/6 + bleu = love . j’ai repris mes photos avec mes réglages d’origine alors il va y avoir beaucoup d’effets de flou dans toutes mes photos
@ Chappy : tommorow i’ll post my setup
