A+, did I ever tell you guys how much I love you? You bring me such hope since the death of Taki Corporation. I mean, after that train wreck of your Wonder Festival 2012 [Winter] exclusive of Cattleya from Queen's Blade, I knew the future between you and me would be a bright one. So it pleases me to know that your next release does... not... wait... What are you doing, A+ with your next event exclusive!?
The company revealed on their blog the next Wonder Festival exclusive would be the 1/4.5 scale Chifusu Manyuu from all about the big boobs title Manyuu Hikenchou. Chifusu sits embarrassingly while only covered with her sarashi covering her rather large bosom. Yeah, it's another ridiculous scaled figure with a ridiculous bust size from a ridiculous title but... it's really NOT that bad. As for how the figure is, it's really no different than the nearly naked figures from companies like Daiki Kougyou, Kaitendoh, or BEAT. The detail in the hair looks great and the face is well done and, I admit, has a somewhat cute expression. Though it looks like she's pouting. I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you! ... I also like that she has a fuller shape to her body bringing a more average, natural look. I've come to accept big boobs but Chifusu are a bit much. Though, it looks like the upper body was just duplicated from a previous release of Chifusu.
Honestly, this is all disappointing. What the heck, A+!? I want to make fun of you again! If you think about it, with the attention to detail to the hair, can you imagine if they put that effort into the actual outfit of their figures? At this scale, no less? A+, you could really make something of yourself if you really try. ...but then I do look at your catalog history and it's safe to say you just want to have A+ quality in T & A.
The 1/4.5 Chifusu Manyuu poly resin kit will be selling for ¥15,000 at Wonder Festival 2012 [Winter] on February 12, 2012 from A+ with only 20 available. Folks, I'm really am sadden by this figure. Hopefully their next release will be on the same page as their Cattleya. I could really use that to cheer myself up.
