Saber Triumphant Excalibur by Goodsmile


Goodsmile - Saber Triumphant Excalibur
Release Date: July 2010
Price: 9800 yens
Scaled: 25 cms scaled 1/7



The newest incarnation of Saber to be released by goodsmile, this is the best representation of armored Saber created thus far. Flowing with the energy and vitality of her fighting spirit while keeping the beauty and charm Saber is known for, this is one of the rare figures that can truly be called a work of art.

She comes with 2 variations of her excalibur, one in normal form and another in invisible air mode with gusts of wind circling around the blade (pictured).

The armor pieces finish uses a slightly metalic hue and reflection giving a sense of realism with her clothing flowing in the air painted a beautifull royal blue with gold trims. Her facial expression also hints at the passion of battle and the righteous fury flowing thru her.

Truly this is a piece that any figure collector should have in they're collection wether they like or not Fate - Stay Night and Saber.

Hasegawa Kotori Scaled PVC by Clayz

Release date: July 2010
Price: 7000 Yens
Size: 18 cms Scaled 1/6



I do not know what this character comes from and waitresses arent really in my interest, but when i saw this figure i was awed.
Shes is absolutely adorable.

The vibrant baby blue and white colors of her uniform, the ribbons, the hair down to all the numerous wrinkles on her clothing giving a huge sense of realism, clayz isnt known for the most high quality figures but this one is a definite exception and a must have for any collector.

My only complaint would be the hips and waist proportion being kinda off, even by anime standard her waist seem a bit too thin. Its not enough to make this figure unsightly however.
