TAMASHII NATIONS : Drossel (Fireball Charming) Anime Miniature Figure

I'm not into toys, models, figurines, or even little statues of any kind. I mztured out of the intrigue of such things a very long time ago... but when I saw this little posable replicant with markedly feminine features, I had to take a closer look. I was taken aback by the architecture and design of it, along with the overall aesthetic simplicity of the model as a whole. It is remarkably detailed and looking at it made me appreciate what people can create with the right level of dedication and passion. I had to have one and it now sits on my computer desk as my caddy and every time I look at it I just smile and admire the mind that manifested it. Couple things though... It must be handled very gingerly, because while it may beautifully crafted, it is not structurally sound at all. Many parts are brittle, the swappable parts don't secure snugly enough and will actually fall off if the table the figure is on gets a good enough jolt. Its center of gravity is too wildly misplaced for it to actually be able to stand up and pose. They include a base and a robot arm thing that anchors into the base that is meant to grip Drossel's waist to hold her upright so she can actually be posed... but she's too heavy for the feeble plastic arm and is jusst as much a pain to get it to stay upright when using as it is without it. It also comes with a ton of swappable parts for the figure like different hands, heads, feet, robot stuff, etc... but nothing to store all that stuff in. They could have just made the base of the stand the compartment for those extra parts, but no. They went with some silly battery powered button and speaker thing that I will never use. Oh yeah and this thing costs quite a bit of money. Not what I'd call a sound investment... but if you want a sweet looking humanoid robot representing the glory of human engineering striking poses on your desk, the Drossel Von Flugel delivers.

Shes really cute and posable. In case its not clear this one is larger than the other one. Its made of a more metal feeling material as apposed to the small plastic one. Shes got a lot of weight to her which i like. She works great as a figure model too. Some of the body parts have fallen off since i got her, like the white parts covering the thighs, but i put some glue in the slots and stuck it back on, hasnt come off since. Also the neck cant support the head very well anymore because ive had her in my bag for a few days, but thats just a warning. Nothing agaisnt the product. My friend has the small plastic one with all the pieces but i like this one more because it feel sturdier.

Alright so this product is a bit flawed, her top half isnt proportional weight wise to her bottom putting strain on the thin plastic waist if droped the wrong way she will break in two. All of the more important joints and peices should be made of the same metal in her knees.

As someone that was able to catch a fully metal drossel from the original series, this is a wonderful piece of art that's not quite as sturdy but equally as impressive. The decals have just as much attention to detail and I love the alternate head more than the one on the box. It's not full metal like the chogokin label would entail but I don't think they could go for something that risky again due to the series not really catching on. The only real problem i was seeing from people with one is that it's really unbalanced when it stands, due to not having feet. My solution was,there are little hydraulics that you can attach to the back of the legs. Some people might've thought they were a kind of gimmick to where she stands in a pose balancing on her head, but they're functional enough to serve as feet (shown in picture with bad lighting). They're jacking up the price and there are probably limited supplies, so either get it here if you want it in brand spanking new condition with no flaws on the box, or find some online while they're abundant from resellers.

The only complaint I have about the Drossel I purchased is that her talking base does not talk. I tried 4 different sets of batteries to no avail. Otherwise she is a wonderful figure and a great addition to any robot lover's collection!

Let me start by saying that if you're on the fence over the price .. don't be. This is the best, most amazing figure I've probably ever owned. The figure it's self is nearly flawless, the joints won't ever get weak due to the metal used for them. That said, the poses you can place her in are endless! The range of movement in the head, arms, legs, and waist give you more options for poses than you'll probably ever find on any other figure. I've heard people say that it feels light compared to other Chogokin figurines, however, I've never owned any other Chogokin.. Not sure how heavy the others are, but she is quite heavy if you ask me.

A very fragile figurine, expect the hands to keep on falling off every time you pose it, however is absolutely gorgeous, superb details and well worth it.

This figure is exactly what I wanted. She is very pose able which is something I look for in a figure like her. Her details are nice and clean. A very good size and easy to use. I am very happy with her and hope to get more like her in the future.

商品届きました。超合金というので、気になったので、注文しました。デザインがよく、適度な重量感があり、とても良い感じで、アクションの方も良く動くので、ポージングがいろいろ出来るので良いです。

This is one of the most well made figures I own, ratchet joints in the knees and head gear, a BUNCH of cool hands to swap out, a cool head to change her look up a bit with, the list goes on! I recommend this for any fan of Fire Ball Charming, and lovers of well made, high quality figures!

figmaと並べると非常に大きくボリュームがあります 細部にまでこだわった作りで見ていても飽きません 自立補助パーツの拘りも良いです しかし結合部がゆるいことがあり、手首など部品が落ちることがあります 腰が弱いというレビューがありますがその通りだと思います、無理に曲げてはいけません 各部の関節の破損には十分注意すべき ボディの汚れなどを拭くときは、印刷されている模様や文字が剥げやすいので注意です。

昔を懐かしく思い購入。 届いて開けてみると・・・ 軽い。 せめて白い部分くらいは金属で作って欲しかった。 まぁ、その場合間接も強化しなければならないので 仕方ないのでしょうが。 また、固体差があるようですね。 うちに来たお嬢様はお顔に大きなホクロがついて ました。中身が見れないのでその辺は運まかせに なりますが。 トータル的に見て、値段は高め、間接は貧弱、 品質は低いであまりおすすめはしません。 自分は台座に後に出るfigmaを乗せようと思います。

お嬢様に関しては、目以外は良いと言えます。 本体パーツの合わせ目がきれいで印刷もきれい。 カチカチとポーズも決まりやすいと思います。 残念なのは目の暗さです。見本写真のようには絶対に見えません。 発光ギミックにできないならできないで、 もっと明るく反射する目にして欲しかったです。 台座の床面の仕上げが悪いです。台座の他の部分は 塗装がしてあるのに、床面は成型品そのままで 擦り傷もあって、シルクのマークも傾いていました。 お嬢様にポーズを付けて台座にのせようとしたのですが、 支柱と一箇所だけのクリップではとても支えきれないです。 安定して支えられるよう設計して作って欲しかったです。 音声ギミックで、音が出ずに故障かと思ったら、 「支柱を差し込まないとONにならない」のでした。 本体と押しボタンのスイッチ２つで十分なのに 無駄なコストをかけて何の意味があるのでしょう。 目と床、保持の部分以外は満足な出来上がりなので惜しいと思います。
