1/8 scale Makoto Sawatari by Max Factory

Well, with under 48hrs to go before my trip, I decided to post a figure review before I leave. As this what could be my last figure review for the year, I decided to add a proper background while trialing out my custom setup.

As seen in front of you,  she is the adorable, cute, lovable, funny and naive Makoto Sawatari from the game and anime series Kanon. While I can sit all day talking about her, I’m sure your guys and gals would prefer looking through the pictures so I will skip the intro. For the people who still haven’t watched the series, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, as it was voted for one of the best drama series of 2007.

Originally released early March this year, I canceled her at the very last minute before she was officially released. I can’t remember what the main reason was but when I saw Dancing Queen review, I was kicking myself to bits. She was just spectacular and beautiful where I felt like she was the most beautiful figure in the world. I reckon it was the yellow flowers that helped me portray that view. lol
So for a week or 2, I went on a frantic search for her and just by luck, I saw her ‘re-stocked” at Hobby Search. Regardless of the shipping price I grabbed her instantly and to this day, she is still one of my favourite figures in my collection. No doubt I would love to see her ‘figmatized’ and pose her in a more variety of ways. ^^

Once again, she is just spectacular and it can be seen via the quality. Love the pose, love the details, love the hair, love that cute little ‘foxy’ smile and love all the other bits from head to toe. Honestly, there is not a single bit that I do not love about her.

Well, I’m done talking. I will let the pictures finish it off. ^^

Love the boots. ^^

Gorgeous hair. ^^

Yay for Pink pantsu. :3

Well, as my first shoot using a plain coloured background, I thought it went well but then again, I know I can do better. As I always like to spice up my shoots a bit, I added a few hand made stars on the base. The stars belongs to my sister as she use to make heaps when she was young.

Well, she’s practically impossible to find nowadays but best of luck if you do try and hunt her down.
