Saika S. Farnese
Dammit! The last time I bought a figurine from an unknown eroge universe, I swore I would never let me seduced again. That was few days after I was fooled by Nagi Death Clothes figurine (in a good way of course! I love this figurine). Ummpff… what a stupid idea I had. Alter does such beautiful eroge girl figurines, that it would be sad to miss them, like the brand new Saika S. Farnese, from a popular game, I guess, Pastel Chime (or may be Pastel Chime Continue).
The pose of this figurine may be common, but with this beautiful long braided blue hair and with the way she’s handling her huge sword, that makes a really lovely silhouette.
Her claw-gloves remind me the ones of Sauron from LOTR, and I’m really fond of this kind of armor.
And like all my Alter’s figurines, I have no reproach Saika with. The quality is here, with nice little details, for a very acceptable price. Go for it if you still hesitate!

Making those photo shots reminded me that I forgot the poor Rindou Rina, also produced by Alter some mounth ago. She’s from the same game as Saika, Pastel Chime, but don’t ask me more. An other good-looking figurine. I feel like girls in this game are all using big weapons. Anyway, those two look great in a collection.

It’s tough to say no to characters you don’t know when a lot of the better looking figures come from non-mainstream stuff — especially pretty girls with swords.
How is your Saika holding up? I’ve noticed some people complaining about it leaning sword-side rather quickly, but mine is fine.
Yeap especially pretty girls with swords, as you say ;)
Mine’s fine too, but I received her only one week ago.
Not that I doubt about people complaints, but I don’t get it. How could she lean, since she’s hardly fixed to its base, she’s standing straight, and the sword is really light? Well you see what I mean…
But I may have a clue : she seems to lean in fact, because of her pose. Her legs are straight, her shoulders too, but because of her pretty curved-hips, she looks like leaning, sword-side actually. That’s what I’ve noticed, paying much more attention.
Great pics as usual.
And now I know why your domain name is Mukyaa. I guess Gyabo was taken?
Thanks Danny. Yes gyabo is already taken, but anyway, I prefer the way Nodame’s saying mukyaa. Especially in episode 9 ;)
She’s a cutie yes, but her problem is the base, that backfoot peg should be a bit more to left so that she would stay “stick” without balancing to the sides which may cause leaning.
Alter made a mistake there. Still I like her a lot
