Although I don't follow Shakugan no Shana Second Season (but have watched the whole first season), I still want a Shana figure and it's a LOLI, although I'm
not that kinda lolicon...uh, just a MOE addict. luckily then I did afford to purchase this figure of Shana cuz it came cheaper than the usual ones that were
previously/currently sold at Play-asia... And this is a Kotobukiya figure .. They've got many great sculptors although some are not really popular... hmmm...
even I really don't know who they are but could say they make good figures.
This Shana figure stands at approx. 12cm... Another huge, long haired figure...
Red-haired moelicious character...
At first, I thought the necklace, was accidentally sticked to her right hair which led me to think it was the wet paint's "evil plot" and just left there sticking
until the packing process ends. I was about to pull it again... another stupid thing for the third time, if ever I pulled it off... Good thing the window box's
picture was the same as the figure itself, else I could have pulled it off and screamed like Tarzan...Heh..
Fixing her upper piece's strap...
Ribbons... I lurve female figures with ribbons in their swimsuits/bikinis...
The bikini is translucent and I could almost see her *censored*... obviously, you guys understood what I am referring to though I did not take
any pictures of it almost shown.
Comes with Shana's katana(Nietono no Shana) and a hermit crab either which is mounted to the base.

A hermit crab... too tiny, but accurate considering the size.
Shana with Nietono no Shana mounted to her beach sand base.
Shana with a hermit crab mounted to her base... it's almost not visible.
All in all, this is really worth a purchase as the sculpt is almost look like the 2D Shana. Although I'm not really familiar with the sculptor, Munetoshi Makio-san, I
still could say that he's a skilled sculptor. Kotobukiya has full of skilled sculptors but I wonder why some collectors still prefer other toy companies (Alter, GSC, MaxFac, etc)
over this particular company... most of my figures were produced by Kotobukiya and so far, I don't have any complaints about it...
