Also, I recommend to see Entertainment Earth, Big Bad Toy Store, Monsters in Motion.

Any comments on MONICA and Golden L. guys????
Thank you Take.

I prefer to buy from Sideshow because of familiarity in addition to the reward points they offer. However, since this is a limited run, I'll buy from other retailers. This is a question best ask to Sideshow, but do you know when they'll put the piece up for order?

As for comments, on Monica and Golden, they are indeed nice sculps, but there are others that I need to get first. Like Akira and The Sacrifice!

I'm actually quite disappointed with The Sacrifice.... the face seems a bit off.... the artwork looks real, and the figure looks a bit cartoonish and not 'alive'...

I mean, the sculptor was Plant Jzero Moekichi, I know Plant Jzero works and they're extremely beautiful (although most of their work is custom from an existing pvc or resin)... I really don't know what happened with the sacrifice... I just don't feel it.... I really like the artwork though.

Dear Aeumuse.

Thank you very much for posting the photos!
Kirin Hobby is great source for yo guys to order if you are not buying from a particular source!

Dear Devil.
I hear you! The face of the Sacrifice is not the best.
Actually, starting from TOI, a new manager took it over. Actually, my sister is in charge and she really did not want to compromise especially on the face!
We both like realistic beauties, not cartoonish ones.

FFG Luis Royo

Dear Outhsider.
Good question! We are trying to release as much as possible, but there is certain limit. Something we can not come close to express or materialize in 3d Art based on his very fine and very complicated art designs.
For example, Medusa's tattoos. it took Mr. Yazawa over 6 months and he almost gave up on it before he completed it! Also, some very fine and small pcs, are hard to make, also, huge pieces are off limit, such as a lady with a beast.

Also, a sculptor got to be quite talented or it would be a disaster. A good sculptor costs a lot and the availability is also extremely questionable.
Mr. yazawa for example, he would only make one per yr!

But we will keep pushing! What is your suggestion? Your favorite piece? I will tell you if it is feasible or not.

Thank you guys for your continuous support! We will Keep pushing hard!

TAKE

Next Release

Hey guys. Next release will be "The Sacrifice" Red Hot Ver.
Aeumuse has posted the photo on Sep 09,09 already.
Sorry for your disappointment , Devil!
I personally do NOT like Cartoonish face, either!

The Red ver. has more vivid and portrait look! Like a hot Latin lady and I like this better myself!
