Bit of a random one today, finally got around to snapping some pictures of the really cool Figma Drossel. I have to say this is one great figure. Well worth the purchase even if you don't know what Drossel is. (It's a Japanese Disney/anime) Figma's are a little smaller in scale than I'm used to, measuring just under 5 inches, but buying them from time to time makes a nice break from all those hefty 1/6 purchases.
Don't forget to click the pictures to get a much better look at them!
The figure comes with various interchangable head accessories, like most Figma's, it's really easy to swap the parts out.
Something else I always love about Figma's is the mad range of accessories and extra hands that each figure normally comes with.
Couldn't resist posing her next to ASIMO!
Something that I think worth mentioning is that if your tempted by this Figma and want to Ebay it, pay attention to the auctions, there are quite a few fakes out there (pictured below on the right)
When my Drossel came in the post I knew straight away it was a fake, all be it a very good fake. The box and everything is almost exact. However the figure just doesn't look quite right, the eyes are duller and slightly miss shaped and the plastic is kinda cheap looking and softer than the real deal. The biggest tell tale are the bolts on the side of her head. They should be black, if they are white then it's a fake!
Of course I contacted the seller and got a refund and I got to keep the fake woo! Just pay close attention when bidding, make sure the auction has the words MAX FACTORY, FIGMA, DISNEY, DROSSEL.
Additionally you should be paying £20+ for this figure, anything less I'd recommend you contact the seller before bidding and confirm it's the Max Factory version and not the "Malaysian version" or whatever they try to pass it off as.
