Raqel Gothic Version 3 1/7 (E2046/Gathering) review
By James. Filed in Figures Pics, Figures Reviews |Tags: raqel gothic gathering e2046 prepainted 1/7
More under the cut
And another Gathering figure from E2046 . Based from a garage kit by Vispo , Raqel is now available in three prepainted versions made by E2046 (you can see the others here) .
As expected from people at E2046 , i have no complains about this one , i’m totally happy with her . The colors used are really nice and the painting is well done . The best parts on Raqel are the hair , love them (but really easy to break , need to be so careful touching her) , and the beautiful base . I mean , it’s a clock , how awesome is that ? There is some great details everywhere on her , she looks pretty nice (but not as great as Dip Mou) and with her weapon , she’s sure going to appeal to all fans of armed girls 
.
8.6/10 . A great looking prepainted figure , nicely painted with nice details and standing on an awesome looking base . Great job from E2046 . Must buy if you like your girls with big weapons .
Now for the pics :
Now no reviews for a while , as people at Cd Japan choose to send all the packages after Golden Week . But i’ll be getting four figures at once so i guess it’s fine like that too ^^ . And i’m sorry for not posting at lots of blogs lately , lots of works … Thanks like always for reading

Waaaah suis jalouse >_< elle est vraiment très belle et j’aime beaucoup le fond de roses violettes que tu lui as choisi <3
)
Si seulement elle sortait en PVC… impossible que je puisse me permettre une gathering (et ça devrait aussi être ton cas, normalement…

Raqel’s most amazing feature should be in her wings, what exquisite crafting to make those. And what a pain it must be to paint those as well lol.

Ah! Elle est vraiment superbe cette figurine. Mais ça, je te l’avais déjà dis quand je l’ai vu en avant première sur Flickr hier. Comme pour le fond, que je trouve très coloré et particulièrement original. C’est un bon choix que tu as fais là Pitachou d’amour! De toute manière, tu es le meilleur, et je ne suis qu’une super boulette, alors je ne peux que me prosterner devant la magnificence de ce fond et de cette magnfique figurine. Aaaaaaaaah, que t’es chou!

Maintenant, je me méfie des GK prépeints car j’en ai acheté 3 en tout, et 2 étaient arrivés avec casse. En tout cas, la figurine est vraiment sympa : le socle est une vraie tuerie ! Les éditeurs de PVC devraient vraiment en prendre de la graine.

Face looks a bit off, but still is a Majestic figure!
Hmm… 2-column photoshoot presentation from now on sir?

En voilà une jolie résine, encore de l’excellent boulot d’E2046.
J’aime particulièrement les ailes de papillons et le socle qui est très beau; un peu moins le visage par contre.
Quand à tes photos, comme toujours, elles sont nikel. Ton nouveau fond est très charmant mais je préfère tout de même le blanc “pas de fond”.
Sinon, est-ce que dans ton lot d’arrivages, il y aurait les deux nouvelles Idolm@ster de Megahouse?
En effet, j’attends avec impatience tes photos de Hoshii Miki que je trouve trop trop craquante.

There actually no need to talk about paintjob quality when it comes to E2046.
Its excellent as always.The only thing that differs from figure to figure is the sculpt and that depends alot on personal preferences.
Love the first series since the flowers go very well with her

On a choisi tous les 2 la même version, la mienne arrivera sous peu.
Une véritable réussite de E2046… surtout au niveau des ailes! Même si le visage me laisse un peu perplexe.
Jolie série de photo par contre contrairement à tout le monde, je préfère les photos su fond blanc.

@Panther,
I’m not sure about the wings , i think they’re not resin and only plastic (even colored one maybe …) so it’s not great

You should buy her , it’s a nice buy for sure ^^

@Jintoo,
E2046 ont fait de gros effort niveau emballage , c’est quasi impossible d’arriver avec de la casse désormais , en tout cas beaucoup moins qu’avant
+ 1 pour le socle :/

@Divine Fang,

@Chrono-Kun,
Je prefere le blanc aussi , comme d’hab . Sinon j’achete toute la gamme de Idolmasters donc oui les deux suivantes sont préco

@Blowfish,
Agree about the paintwork . Thanks ^^

@lylibellule,
Normal c’est la meilleure version , la noire fait trop classique
Les ailes me semblent juste du plastique coloré … ca a pas l’air de la resine donc bof … Et le visage ressemble a celui d’Asuka je trouve .
Pareil , je ne suis pas fan de mon fond avec les fleurs , mais bon , pas simple a trouver un fond pour celle ci … J’en ai essayé pourtant :/

@James,
I did last night, but only the black one is available. Thanks for your review, I didn’t check her at all because she didn’t look familiar to me but seeing how cute she is, I couldn’t help lol.

One of your most beautiful photography sessions. Regarding the figure, it is magnificent, it is not my style but here, I crack without problems. I particularly like chiseled wings.

@James,
Aye, I picked up one of the last four they have, and by the time I paid for mine this morning, they were down to 1.
Soon, I will be digging myself out of this visual novel hole I am in and start snapping pictures with my latest trophies.

It’s a pity PVC doesn’t bases aren’t always as beautiful at that or I’ve would’ve been snapping each and everyone of them up. lol
How many resin kits u have now and how much more room u can spare for more? lol
Lovely pictures as always. I’m speechless with ur great awesomeness in ur backdrops.

she an original character? love all the details (specially how the axe is piercing the face of the clock) though personally the wings aren’t really my thing (they’re wonderfully done but it kinda has a steampunk feel to it which isn’t really what i want in my figures). at any rate, nice get!
