It's been not only a long time since I've posted here, but it has been a long time since I shared photos of my place. The last time you guys saw where I lived I was still living at home with my parents. It was back in 2012, so easily 4 years ago you saw my collection. Now you can see not only has my… [more]
So since I've moved into my new apartment I still hadn't set up my photography studio. Seems work has me busier than I thought I would ever be, however I took some time this past weekend to set up my studio so I could take some photos of my latest purchase, Alter's 1/8th Melty from Shining Hearts. Now… [more]
Pre-ordered this figure the moment she was released for pre-order. I needed for for multiple reasons, she's sexy/half naked, plus while she's not Sora she reminds me of Sora from Yosuga no Sora! But she's Yuki from Maid Yome and she's pretty amazing. The only issue is her adorable mouth really looks… [more]
I recently went on a trip to a magical place, The Container Store. Ok it's not really magical, but I happen to have discovered a love for organizing my home. I tend to prefer Ikea and Daiso but we went to The Container Store on a whim and I discovered this lovely storage container! I've been needing… [more]
My newest Yoko added to my army of Yoko figures. She’s #8 and i had to rank them all she’d be #6 just barely surpassing the Fraulien Revoltech and Konami Yoko. Now that i don’t like the Revoltech, but then i’ve never been a huge fan of jointed figures and the base pisses me off and doesn’t hold he right so that knocks her down a few places. Maybe the Movie Fraulein revoltech will change my mind…
Her face is really nice, no major paint problems, nice pose.
But her boobs are just terrible! They look so bad, they look just so bad and they look so heavy and no way that her top would support her if they were that big.
Her stomach doesn’t seem very realistic but then she is supposed to be 14… so nothing is realistic with Yoko to begin with.
I love her big gun, but then that’s one thing i always loved about Yoko in General.
I guess from certain angles Her Yokoppai don’t look too bad, from here they look nice, but from some angles…
Like here they look kinda funky…
and from this angle they look fine again!
Came with a nice little Boota.
Has this box and a circle base, the round base is pointless and i doubt i’ll display her with is since it’ll take up too much space. Yoko is 1/5 scale so she’s a little big!
Row Row Fight Da Power!
I was planning this whole post talking about how i was growing tired of Yoko and that this would be my last Yoko and that I’d cancel all other Yoko pre-orders I have. But then it was a bit too late to post it so i decided to be serious and not joke! Well I have to admit I’m full biased when it comes to Yoko. If it were any other character I would have passed and not have bothered, but this is Yoko so I needed her and had to add her to my ever growing Yoko army. If you are truly a huge fan like myself then I’d search the internet for her, but if not? Then don’t bother since there are so many other amazing Yoko figures that have either been released or are going to be released. Also she came with a bullet, but I dropped it during this shoot and lost it ๐ I’ll most likely figure out a way to make another for her to hold.

I love the photos!
Been following your figure photos/purchases for awhile, very tempting to start buying some of my own but they seem expensive. ๐
Chris Clarkes last blog post..Desktop (Venus) – April 2nd 2009
She is cute, but i prefer Gift’s version (release : april 2009) or Alter Bounty Hunter’s version (relase : june2009).
Nice shooting !
hmm.. not as good as I expected.. I’ve canceled my pre-orders few days before it came out, not regretting heh ๐

I see exactly what you mean about her oppai. There are just too many angles that they look weird from for me.
Darktek13s last blog post..HaagenDazs_Ginger6
Now that you’ve pointed out the boobs I can’t stop thinking about how funky they are @-@ Major turn off, I mean, the manufacturers should know that’s one of the main parts that people look at and should take more time with it >.< My favorite part would have to be her paint job though, the colors are really good ~<3Everytime I see a Yoko release I think, “I wonder if DQ is gonna pick this one up too” XD
Mitokos last blog post..Believe it~
The pose is nice and sexy but I don’t like this figure, I guess is her face, something is not totally right, and her boobs are ogly I’m the one who likes more realistic ones.
ceasols last blog post..dwarf_fotoโs Moe y fotografรญa! unidos por naturaleza^^
@Chris Clarke:
some are a bit pricey lately, but there are still some amazing figures for decent prices too
@Leonia:
the bounty hunter one might be the best one made…
@RON~:
yeah she’s not regrettable at all, but then i must have every yoko so i had to get her
@Darktek13:
luckily from straigh on they look fine
@Mitoko:
i pick them all up!
@CEASOL:
but then when was yoko ever truly realistic?
1/5! That’s pretty big. But so big that the oppai flaws look all the more clearer. Still, I think it’s a pretty decent job everywhere else. ๐
AKs last blog post..Earth Hour
Since you’ve been following Yoko quite a bit. There is a kit that E2046’s selling PF4330 obviously its not theirs but.. Have you seen this anywhere in the works for PVC production or you think its a garage kit only job?
For a huge scale model. I with companies would take the time to make the hair a little more complex.
@AK:
yeah she has a good face and the gun, boots, and so much more are really well made.
@mrgetalife:
haven’t heard of a pvc of that one but she does look amazing
her boobies look saggy but firm at the same time
Otaku Dans last blog post..Picking Manga
She’s pretty well done, but there are much better out there for the non-Yoko collector, as you said (although I do love her character). That bounty hunter version coming out by Alter is ridiculous in a very good way. I want her so bad, but I have alot of expensive pre-orders out there right now, so I don’t know if I can get her, which I know I’ll regret later *sob*. I do love Alter’s work on their figures.
hey i was wondering. when ordering from kidnemo, can you cancel the order, even when the order status is: order confirmed?
because i can’t afford lelouch anymore :[.
Really nice shoot!!!!!
There are flaws I do agree…
Either way…it’s a really good figure!!!
Rins last blog post..Miku Preview + a Little Extra
@Otaku Dan:
thats another thing about the angles, some angles they look droopy and bad, others they looks really nice
@SilverEthereium:
bounty hunter yoko is gonna be epic
@kelly:
you should be able to, go ahead and send them an e-mail to ask
@Rin:
the flaws are there and if someone wasn’t a huge yoko fan i wouldn’t get it, but if they are like me then it’s a must
Very lovely pictures!! ^^ Too bad my mum don’t like figurines which shows alot of skins.. -_-;;
I do wonder how many Yoko figurines are there on the market nowadays, I lost count anyway.. @_@
Fariz Asukas last blog post..K-ON! โ Mash My Anime
Shes right now on the way to me shes gonna be my last Yoko besides Alters.
I actually do like the fact that her breasts look a bit saggy.Adds more “realism” to her imho.What i dont like about her is her face. it looks somehow wrong to me.To be honest the only reason i ordered this one is her size and provocative pose…There you have the truth ๐
