1/8 Shana by Kotobukiya

Shana is my first new figure in ages…Well…Since summer ended to be exact.

I think it was during the last month of school where frustration due to various stuff a first year has to deal was building up when I decided to finally watch Shakugan no Shana. I suppose it was partially due to impulse that I decided to buy her. Not exactly complaining though, since I’ve got no local store to go to when I’m away from home and I sort of wanted to reward myself for managing a good grade.

Problem is by that logic I’m also in danger of purchasing Louise since Zero no Tsukaima also stars Kugumiya Rei and Hino Satoshi. That’s been partially quenched since Danny mentioned that GSC will be releasing Saber Lily in June ^^;

Lovely optical eyes, Shana lacks the other kind XD

A lovely figure of a lovely character. Craftmanship is as expected from Kotobukiya. Could have been much cheaper had I bought her this summer. Oh well, can’t really complain.

  1. I have to say that that Shana doesn’t REALLY look like Shana. Reminds of the pictures I see about Clannad to be exact. I blame the eyes :P

    But regardless, that’s a really cute and nice figure you have thar :D

  2. every bloggers i came across since to own a shana figure or nendoroid. am i the only odd one out? XD

  3. Na, I don’t have one either. Really, I don’t collect any Manga/Anime/Figures at all. Sad but true ;(

  4. Congratz on getting your Shana :D I really love this Shana. It was so hard to find her when I was looking though. I had to go through eBay, luckily it’s not fake. Good luck getting Louise and Saber Lily ^_^

  5. @Aizen: Well, it’s the eyes that make a character (that and the hair XD), Shana’s eyes are quite big compared to other figures of her size, so it is a bit unnatural.

    @Gordon: I’m pretty sure there are more folks out there that didn’t adopt Shana ^^

    @lightningsabre: I hope it were that simple…RadiantDreamer is selling me his Caren Hortensia by Alter. So far, 2009 hasn’t been cheap >.>

  6. Alot Figure Photographers seem to have the shaky hands syndrome where their hand slips top certain angles ^^

    I havent seen Shakugan no Shana so i cant tell anything except that i prefer her dark haired version of the flaming haze one

  7. :woot!: Go Koto, go Koto, go go, go Koto! Her eyes look gorgeous. I can’t wait to get my Shana, blue bikini with melonpan!

  8. OOOH. Meronpan.
