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]
Once again we have another Loaned figure, this time the amazingly stunning Octavia from Tears to Tiara. I had never seen her in person and she is just lovely and has such an amazing movement.
Love her vibrant colors and her pose full of movement.
Interchangeable arms, so she can either hold her sword or have it sheathed and be reaching for it.
Her blue eyes just pop since there isn’t anything else that’s blue on either the figure or the background I choose.
The purple detail on her scarf is very lovely and really adds that something special.
Oh this is something I haven’t shown in quite a while! A panty shot!
Such an exciting figure with an exhilarating pose with a flowing movement! Action poses are hard to master and sometimes you get them right and with Octavia I feel they did well with the flow of this figure and the colors are just spot on.

I like this figure for her dynamic pose and her dangerous face expression. I like her colors too ^^ Thank for the review !
Her facial expression is really jut spot on as well for this type of figure.
Ah, nice. I haven’t seen the anime and I know nothing about the character but I like her ^^. A feisty girl with a deadly weapon, what’s not to like? xD
Same, I have no idea about anything about tears to tiara but the character designs are cute.
I haven’t watched the anime version because I didn’t like how they redesigned a few of the characters. I was used to certain characters looking more cute and loli from the ero game version. ^^;
I do like this Octavia figure though. The details on her belt are quite nice. Thanks for the review and nice pantsu shot. :3
Almost forget to do the panty shot bit it was a nice angle I caught her at.
The pictures turn out very well. ^^
Oh thanks so much!
She looks really nice except for one thing: her earring looks like something is growing out of her ear, kinda freaky.
i just noticed it! How could i overlook something so ugly?!
oh those are nice details that you shoot,
as the previous comment poster, I too just realized the earring part… that is creepy >.<…
but if only they didnt do that then i suppose the figure should be great ^^
yeah never noticed it at all! that’s why i love reviews like these, you notice things in photos that you wouldn’t in person
Gotta love a girl with an angry face and a sword!
she’s ready to kick your butt!
The belt is nice and the ripples in the clothes matches the pose well. Though i think her eyes are a bit too far apart from each other.
hehe, another thing i didn’t notice until someone pointed it out, yeah they do seem to be a little too far apart in some photos, but in person i didn’t notice it all!
Oh now this one is a rather nice figure.Havent seen the Anime so I cant tell to much but the pose looks quite nice
i do love the pose, such a vibrant action pose
I love Octavia XD, she somehow resembles my fav character (Saber). Wish I had more time to finish the series T_T (or play the game)
now that i look at her, she does look so much like saber!
Awesome review! I have made up my mind to get this figure ^_^
