Dakimakura Review – Nozomi Yuuki from Slave Bride (NSFW)

written on September 30, 2012 by Tier

A recent failed attempt at building a set and an ill-timed touch of the flu means that we’ll be looking at another pillowcase instead of a figure. This one is from the same circle and features a similar theme as … Continue reading →

Kaori Saeki from Bible Black (NSFW)

written on September 22, 2012 by Tier

Taking a break from the bikini figures for a bit, we will instead look at an older figure today. I did not plan to review this figure because I did not actually like it very much when I got it. … Continue reading →

Inia Sestina from Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse (Kourai Version)

written on September 16, 2012 by Tier

We looked at the querulous Yui Takamura earlier in the year and the petulant Cryska Barchenowa a few weeks ago; today we’ll look at Inia Sestina, the younger-looking, more affable member of the Scarlet duo.

If you want a figure of Nanoha Takamachi wearing a bikini, your cup runneth over as there are no fewer than four such figures that have been recently released or are currently up for order. If you dig big breasts, … Continue reading →

Dakimakura Review – Somei Yoshino from the Art of Carnelian (NSFW)

written on September 6, 2012 by Tier

Time for pillowcase show-and-tell. This one comes from Carnelian, although not from her own doujin circle. I own one of her earlier dakimakura covers and I was very pleased with it; this one is a bit different thematically but no … Continue reading →

Preorder Outlook XXI

written on August 31, 2012 by Tier

It’s that time of the month again. No, not that time, it’s time for me to discuss the figures I’m thinking about possibly preordering. Figure makers were busy showing off their new goods at Wonder Festival last month and we’re … Continue reading →

Samus Aran from Metroid: Other M (Zero Suit Version)

written on August 27, 2012 by Tier

I have to admit that lately, I haven’t been too enthusiastic about Good Smile Company’s or Alter’s figure lineups. It doesn’t take any extraordinary talent at prognostication to look at a seasonal anime chart and guess which shows are going … Continue reading →

Photography Exercise – vmf50 Dolls (NSFW)

written on August 22, 2012 by Tier

This site is mainly about pictures of figures, and it’s also about pictures of pillowcases. However, it’s also about pictures of dolls and it’s been too long since I’ve posted anything about my doll collection. That absence is not for … Continue reading →

Cryska Barchenowa from Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse (Guren Version)

written on August 17, 2012 by Tier

It’s time for Christmas in July, courtesy of Kotobukiya. It might seem odd to release a Santa-themed figure in the middle of the year, particularly one of a Soviet commie, but the timing is nonetheless auspicious as Total Eclipse is … Continue reading →
