The twins from Vocaloid are here today for the review . And they are ready for the show .
Volks is know for their garage kits and exclusive Japan market , so sadly it’s hard to get a product from them . But now that they’re making PVC’s too , it’s nice to see another (good) manufacturer in the PVC market . The Vocaloid family is quite popular in Japan (and with the help of the Miku phenomena) and in the world so it was a nice move from Volks to chose to make them in PVC .

Rin and Len are standing at a good 22 cm tall and 1/6 scale . The two figures are sold together but you can expose them separately . The original artwork was showing them together so i think it’s better to leave them how they were designed to be . And people at Volks did a nice job , as they look nearly exactly like the original pic . In the box there is two aditional arms if you want to put them in a more “plain” pose . I didn’t took any pics with those , so you’ll only see the more “dynamic” pose .

The paint work is surely the highlight on the twins , as Volks painting is really glossy and totally different from the more “realistic” painting we can see usually on figures . And that makes them stands out . Volks painting is nicely done and quite precise and the colors used are really nice (love the golden paint used on the belt !) but there is some scratches and little seamlines on the figures . But i personaly don’t think it’s a big problem , as the quality is high enough to warrant a buy . The pose is really nice and getting two figures as one is quite awesome .

Rin and Len are two awesome looking twins and their glossy paint and great “diorama” pose are sure helping them to stand out . Volks did a great job and those two are surely going to be better than the Good Smile versions , like with the already out Miku .

9.4/10 , a must buy if you like the characters or if you like glossy/flashy paint (and no , it’s not a glossy paint like Koto’s ) . The twins are hard to find and at a heavy price but i think they’re worth it

Now for the pics :

Another Rin Natsume from Little Busters and surely the best one of the bunch . Does it mean she’s a must buy ?
Sadly that’s not the case , she’s indeed the best Rin available right now , but just because the other are too plain looking …

Originally sculpted by French Doll (CerberusProject) as a GK , this Rin by Enterbrain is standing in an awesome dynamic pose , doing a nice over the head kick , while giving us a nice view of her pantsu . The paint job is fine , there’s nothing out of place and the colors are good , even if it’s not as precise than the work from Alter or Good Smile . The white base is similar to the one from Kotobukiya , so nothing spectacular .

I know i must sounds overly negative about this one but i don’t think any of the Rin available on the market is really worth the buy if you’re not a big Little Busters fan . The two Kotobukiya’s version are really plain and classical when the Enterbrain version is more dynamic with a less nicely painted face and eyes . Overall the Enterbrain one is the best , thanks to the great sexy dynamic pose and the better painting . But it would be nice to see Alter making Little Busters characters … but it won’t happen .

8/10 for Little Busters fans , 7/10 for everyone else .

Now for the pics :

I was searching for this one for a long time , and finally found her on ebay … she was used and not in a great condition but i didn’t know that … but it’s still ok because she’s nearly impossible to find and i got her at a killer price (20 euros) . I love her , i think she’s the best of all the Fate swimsuit collection and Alter did an awesome job , like always .
