i think the onsen parts is a creative way to store the extra head sculpt. the makers likely had that in mind, and making it onsen give bonus points when youtubers make video thumbnails with them.
@@NostalgiaUnboxedit is, I bought two bodies to make my own custom figures and I didn't expect all the sculpt and paint for and on the "bits". Good figure though, bit pricey, even for just the body. I bought mine for $55 a piece on Amazon, just a blank body with some hands and extra joints.
From what I can tell, the seperate set of legs are meant to be more detailed with sculpt work and articulation at where the socks meet, while the legs the figure originally came in only have printed stockings 🤔
In my opinion, I trust this brand. I own 3 of their figures, The Farm Girl which is identical to this figure with brown hair and overall, and another school girl.
@@道芊櫳 yeah I was gonna say the same thing. The spring doesn’t look all like convincing as a prop with the under light. It is a really nice vibe. You could probably use it in like a I don’t know fantasy or Ranma diarana to show the change
The water base is cool. It's certainly unique. At least it is to me. I've never seen this water base from any other toy company. Ppl who take photos of their action figures, this accessory is great. this is another way to get the most out of your action figures. For collectors who display loose. Since you're a customizer, you could probably make this piece look even better. By 3d printing a hot tub or bathtub, this water base will fit in. If you're not that type of customizer, I'm sure you can find someone who is.
So a weird thing happened to me as a collector, and I'm gonna blame you partially if that's ok lol. I started out collecting mainly militaristic figures and just cool oddball figures here and there, which I still do, but then these type figures started coming across my field of notice, and I love how expressive many of these type figures are. It helps to create additional layers in setting up scenes/photography if you're into that type thing, and they're just neat. I've got this figure coming from 5k and am looking forward to setting up some scenes - not those kinda scenes! I also noticed that mechanic Fiona back there. I personally love that figure and am looking forward to your thoughts on that one too!
I got the very first Yua because I fell in love with her Mousey, somewhat Studio Ghibli look to her face. Very cute and wholesome even though she's a hentai figure.
@@LewisChristisonVids I'm still relatively new to these type figures, but I just fell in love with the overall expressiveness of many of these figures. Since I'm getting into figure photography, it affords a whole new avenue of setting up scenes.
Would the bathhouse torso have the same proportions as the figures upper torso? Definitely a cheesecakes/fan service figure but it's pretty cool and I'm glad you review such a wide variety of figures.
I love all the accessories you used on this review, any chance you can telll me where you got them? Specially the muffin tray and the desk with the chair
Manatee figures are awesome I have the brunette and blonde versions of Eimi, Arina, Elle, and both the brunette and red head versions of Yua. I have both versions of the buck bodies back when they were Hon Studios. They are good for head swaps with Figma and some Figuarts. I even have the seven studios Mai from king of fighters that's a clone manatee industries body
For me the wrist joints on this version of Yua are kinda not good. Going to put some furniture polish on the internals of the ball peg to see about tightening them up. Also highly recommend sanding off the ring around the wrist pegs to make swapping hands alot easier. I'll never understand some companies put these on the wrist joints and it makes them hard to swap hands with out heating up the parts.
Haha I've been waiting for this review to drop since I messaged you on Twitter. I have the exact same issue with the torso joint popping out but still I just have so much dumb fun posing her whenever I'm bored. Just something about a basic anime girl doing action poses or wrestling moves on Goku is just hilarious to me. Other than the the occasional joint issue or the slight mismatch on skin tones (at least on mine) I think this is a great figure. I did look into some of the previous ones and I gotta say some of those pre-order bonus faces are a bit much tho...
Haha. I haven’t seen those extras, but saw they do a lot of this similar design. Certainly fun and, if nothing else, can be a good background character for photos
One of the figures (the straw hat one) came with replacement faces for the previous figure (glasses girl), because the design and printing were so awful and made her super derpy. No replacement for the AHG expression though.
I had that torso issue with a figma. I solved it in a jiffy by adding a drop of superglue on the ball of the joint, I let let it dry, before putting it together again, and the problem was solved. maybe it can work here too.
I picked this up as well. I haven’t done too much posing with it yet but overall I like it. It looks good and is a little different in my collection. Satiates my needs for the moment while I wait for all these Snail She’ll ladies to ship 😅
Do you want to try reviewing these figure on top of a desk mat or play mat? I can just hear the figure parts hit the hard table. One time a figure slipped from my hand and hit the table and the hair piece was damaged and scuffed.
I didn't notice did this video ever say what character this is supposed to be,i down recognize this can someone please tell me who she is supposed to be ?
it's almost there but the legs kinda turned me off.... i rather them giving a standard leg with white socks like how snail shell and hasuki does which basically started by azone.. the shoes are ok.. also i think manatee had a normal body released that have soft bust?
I've noticed that the amount of "sexy" girls figure has exploded. Go to 5K toys and just scroll down. More than half are just random females figures. But someone said sex sells.
Very cool as a generic Anime character and infact i swear the face looks completely familiar from sum show. However the under garment might be a bit much in this case. 🤷♂️ Yet the HotSpring set-up is downright genius and in good taste so definitely liked that! I noticed long ago from watching Anime that the Japanese covet their mineral baths. The knees are so bad tho!
6:07 ...got her tryna do the Rasen-gan??🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 6:54 ...and then a Hadou-ken on top of that, too??? But yeah, that's a way too large price tag for something where the QC ain't quite there.
Manatee started off making "anatomically correct" bodies for custom figures before going into their own ""OC" characters. I have pretty much all the figures, except for Ellie, which comes with weapons. If you are wondering why I put "OC" in parentheses, that's because there is a pattern in the naming convention, if you know that pattern, then well, you are a fellow person of culture.
This figure feels like it could become an all time favorite for turning schoolgirl anime figma figures into fully posable characters with cloth goods,is it just me?
I have to say I'm rather disappointed in this release. The original Yua (a red headed farm girl in a white tee shirt and blue jean overalls) was Manatee Industry's very first character. Their later characters would come with a lot more accessories; especially alternate face plates; The beach girl even came with a bonus face for the original school girl. I would have preferred the V.2 Yua had come with 2 new facial expressions, instead of the onsen dio parts. Odd that your copy kept popping apart. The 3 MI figures I have are solid. Also her should joint is a ball joint going into the chest with a swivel and hinge at the shoulder to arm connection similar to many Figma.
I know you ask why would we want this? I will try to explain. When a man sees a woman up to her chest in a hot spring as master Roshi would say “their nose starts to bleed “lol the cliff notes men are simple creatures with simple needs and 1/2 women fill that need. 😊 lol not my figure thing but ehh who am I the judge lol good review as always
