Emi Kizaki Swimsuit Version 1/8 (Kotobukiya) review :
By James. Filed in Figures Pics, Figures Reviews, Girls and Flowers |Tags: 1/8, Emi, Kizaki, Kotobukiya, Swimsuit
More under the cut :
Another figure from Kotobukiya , this time it’s Emi Kizaki from the anime “Kurogane No Linebarrels” .
I’m not going to write a real review , because the problem is easy to spot : this figure is far from the quality i expect now and looks like a two years old Kotobukiya’s figure …
The overall quality is not high with not a lot of details , the PVC quality is not too good with marks on the legs and some little seamlines … And for a 1/8 figure she’s so little ! Even my 1/10 Lena from Wave is bigger !
But everything is not that bad , the paintjob is fine and the hair is quite nicely made . And Emi really looks cute with a nice surprised expression and a sexy pose . But still for the high prices PVC figures are now , i think she’s sadly not worth a buy , at least not at full price …
7/10 . A cute and sexy little figure but too plain and simple to be worth the buy at high price .
Now for the pics :

Looks like Koto screwed up…
Surprising considering the last few figures that Koto released were so good!!!
Well, it’s a nice figure either way…it’s a shame that the quality isn’t as good…
Nice photos too!!!!!!

Kotobukiya …
J’ai vraiment du mal avec cette éditeur. 
Mais la figurine est tout de même sympa. Et le petit rongeur sur sa poitrine est trop mignon.
Quand à tes photos, elles sentent bon l’été.

The figure is not so good but man, your photos made her look good and so tantalizing! I am not a swimsuit figure fans, but strangely, everytime I see a swimsuit figure review from you, I get tempted. ^^”
I guess most sitting down figures look kinda small. Me thinks you are spot on when you said she looks simple, but cute and sexy. I like her expression too.

Emi Kizaki est toute mignonne ici. Plus que dans l’autre version je trouve. J’avais craqué sur la pose et le petit pervers entre ses seins, mais bon, Kotobukiya était aux commandes, et après avoir vu la première version (qui est sympathique mais sans plus pour le prix payé), j’ai passé mon chemin.
Tes photos sont très belles, ça sent le printemps et ça ajoute une nouvelle figurine à ta série “Girl and Flower” ^^

@Rin,
I can’t agree about Koto’s figures being good … only two figures from them are good enough for my taste …
And thanks

wow,bummer A’ that’s too bad,she does seem quite boring and I can tell the quality isn’t as good as newer figures with your precise pictures so a thumbs down for me:/although the yellow flowers do look beautiful,love to see it used with a more appetizing figure
oh and whats with the little surprise between her opai?

@Roy,
Glad you like the flowers ^^
Between her oppai i guess it’s a sort of animal , mouse or furret maybe ? Didn’t watch the anime so i don’t really know

bien mimi cette figurine !! comme il a été dit plus haut, ça sent bon le soleil !!
la bestiolle dans le creux de ses seins est choupinette et rend la fig plutôt craquante !!

your shots sure make her look not so bad
i have yet to see kurogane no linebarrels so perhaps that’s putting her in a better light than she deserves ^^;
think i’ve said it before but i wish koto would climb the quality ladder a bit… they release so many good characters, just not at the quality i want!

@meronpan,
I won’t buy Kotobukiya again … just the Hayate no Gotoku figures , because Hinagiku was great .
So yes i totally agree

@Optic,
She is indeed sexy but little and could have been done better … Suzu is still the best Kotobukiya swimsuit figure …
Flowers are always pretty ^^
