Comments on: Sheryl Nome from Macross Frontier http://www.tentaclearmada.com/2009/09/sheryl-nome-from-macross-frontier/ Things that make me happy Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:30:59 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tier http://www.tentaclearmada.com/2009/09/sheryl-nome-from-macross-frontier/#comment-575 Tier Thu, 24 Sep 2009 04:28:29 +0000 http://www.tentaclearmada.com/?p=941#comment-575 It's good to know the markings are easy to remove; I haven't tried wiping them off yet. I hadn't bought any Megahouse figures until just recently but I'm definitely liking them a lot; I'm not sure if I'll pick up Ranka though (being unfamiliar with the series still, I don't know much about the characters). I'm looking forward to their next Sheryl figure; it's certainly distinctive and appealing in a "I can't believe they did that!" sort of way.

They were easily removed with a little soap and water. Besides, it's almost impossible to see with all of Sheryl's hair in the way. I hardly purchase figures but I just couldn't pass this up. Megahouse did an EXCELLENT job with this one. I'll probably pick up their Ranka Lee when it's out. IMHO this will be the Sheryl Nome figure to top. It's also nice to see that everyone is praising it too. I also noticed that my Sheryl had two very tiny black marks underneath her tube top (backside).

Granted, as far as I know none of my family members have been to Europe in over fifty years. Stranger things have happened though! I'm glad they didn't make the uniform black ... I'm not all that politically correct (as you can see from my Obama doll usage) but even I wouldn't have bought this figure if it were. I could be!

I’ll probably be displaying her that way." Dude,are you my long lost brother? ^^ Totally dislike that military/fascist outfit :/ “I’ll be honest, she looks rather like a ho in that getup, which I certainly approve of.

I guess I can see why figure sculptors seem to like this costume a lot XD >> Lylibellule Thanks! I wasn't really sure how I wanted to photograph Sheryl, but I'm glad that the pictures came out alright. >> gundamjehutykai

My supplier says that he expexts it within the next few weeks along with my revoltech Reycal!! But Sheryl is one of my fave characters both in design and her actual character. My only gripe is that she has quite a few costumes in the show (at least 8) but most figures, including GK focus on this one. Well, I'm sure I'll have others by the end of it. I'm building up a bit of a sheryl collection at the moment!!! I’m still waiting for mine to arrive. My supplier says that he expexts it within the next few weeks along with my revoltech Reycal!!

That's not expensive. To the USA. I think I might move my pre-orders from Hobby Search, need to calculate how it pans out, once you add that Hobby Search cuts you the tax, and adds "points" to your orders. You can get a Billy Herrington figma from Tokyohunter. EMS of 2800 yen? That’s not expensive. To the USA.

I had two ideas for a background, one was a concert stage and the other was rather more risque. I've ordered a Miku figure and I figure she should get the concert stage.

Shipping was 2800 yen, which I guess is around average for a box of this size (she's got a pretty big box because of all the accessories). >> Leonia

I might be tempted to move a couple of pre-orders from Hobby Search there for the SAL option, and yes, I know they shipped your figure EMS. <a href="http://theinfernoproject.com/2009/09/03/alpha-x-omega-sheryl-nome/" rel="nofollow">Here</a>'s Tommy's review of the figure. And yeah, I've seen like 4-5 reviews of her the last week or so.
