This figure is super impressive. I’m surprised you scored it so low. And I just want to say that I really appreciate that you do these reviews uncensored like they should be.

Figures can be impressive and enjoyable, while still being objectively bad (for this one, think fitment, paint quality, and Yuri's poor sculpting). I can't share the link due to the 18+ content, but if you look up "F.W.A.T. 1/6 Yuri Kamijou figure" you'll see what Yuri SHOULD look like and will help grasp why this figure scores so low. If she looked like FWAT's representation, this figure could have been truly epic! But Senpai's new favorite figure, the Yoshitoku Kurumi, only scored a 70/100. That's a good example of how a figure can still be loved, but suffers from things that are unacceptable. But the finished product is just so beautiful! Think of our reviews as more of "holding companies accountable" for what they are selling us. Thank you for the kind words! It really means a lot. We abhor censorship and never want any of ours to be censored. So far, no strikes from KZitem. We are trying to be optimistic in that our format lends credence to our argument of being as objective as possible (and not for sexual gratification). Soon we'll be able to monetize on KZitem, so we are curious if they'll block our channel or not. Ideally, we could just monetize everything else, and not monetize 18+. We'd be perfectly happy with that!

Even with that face, I am still gonna go for Yuri cuz there is some resemblance to Komi (Komi can't communicate) hahaha 🤣. Just glad to see you two back and a return to form - this one felt even more structured and concise with the same old critical analysis that I love. I must say at that price point, it was really tempting to acquire.. But I wholeheartedly agree with you, that it hits the right notes in the wrong areas (box and value) and vice versa, which was probably a shame since it can achieve so much more if done right. Cant wait to see your future reviews again and what shenanigans both of you are up to, with the many detolfs you have acquired recently 😂

the algorithm recommended one of your SFW videos and i liked it so much that now i'm bingewatching all your reviews 😂 great stuff, very insightful and thoughtful!! cast-off figures are soooo captivating and alluring, but i'm still too shy to add one to my collection 😅 all i can think about this one is what you do with the other set of torsos that you're not currently displaying. the idea of them just laying in a drawer is a bit creepy lmao. how do you store cast-off pieces/accessories when they're not currently in use?

Haha. The algorithm is sending you down a rabbit hole! (And forgive our earliest reviews 😭 so painful to watch now). And once you get one 18+ figure, it's all downhill from there! Believe it or not, we have all of our boxes :) we store them in larger boxes in our crawlspace. So we don't have to think about some of the armless, headless, legless torsos 😂

Very nice to see another “degenerates” figure up for review! lol Oof, I wholeheartedly agree this could have been a total home run, had they followed better the original art… it was a bit of a disappointment to unbox after seeing the fish face on Yuri. Def team Stella as well. Speaking of which, recently definitely not liking the quality level of BINDing in some of the latest releases, like Allyson Fincher and Ally Queen of Hearts. But, credit where credit is due, the base is awesome! In my collection only Ningguang’s would outperform it! Personally, besides the mild disappointment about the art, I also had a hard time assembling the cast off versions, as the pegs for the heads on both of them were misaligned and not the type of stuff you can fix with say… a blow dryer 😅, I had to perform some “surgery” to slim down the pegs to finally get it to fit in the heads (both of them had the same issue). On the other hand, the seams for arms are legs were perfect on my set. And again, very good video!

I feel like they've just become FREEing. Which....can't believe I JUST realized this, "BINDing" is a spoof of 😅 And ultimately, both are owned by GSC. Of which, their 1/4 quality just varies so dramatically. It's like they have their own bell curve for their own products. Some look perfectly fine, while others get a prize figure paint job. I completely believe you. After filming, we noticed that that bad gap on Yuri's arm is only on the NSFW version. It lines up fine on the SFW. So I bet with some sanding, I could get it flush. Another thing we noticed though is that Yuri's head on ours is quite loose. If you hold her upside down, that head is falling off 😅 So it's just very inconsistent it seems. All I can say though is that this is why we'll never do an in-depth review on a pre-owned figure. There already seems to be a good bet of variance between production (like ours versus yours in fitment), that we definitely can't add the possibility of the prior owner "fixing" something or making their own scuffs and such. We'll save pre-owned figures for our future short-form reviews. Thank you for the kind words and for commenting! Interacting with subscribers like you means everything to us. Keep the discussion coming! (And send us a link to your collection if you have it posted somewhere! Would love to see it!)

Great and insightful video as usual!! I'm so torn on this figure.. 1/4 aren't my thing but i really like the whole setup of these two as well as the "china dress" theme. I wish there would've been an option to get them seperate because i would've immediatly bought stella but yuri is what keeps me from getting them... The hair color is a bit jarring to the eyes and her face is as mentioned just not executed well. I guess i'll keep on staying indecisive T-T I feel like nsfw comapnies tend to have a trend of "ruining" figures based on perfectly fine illustrations with their constant add ons and small changes *cough* the stella and yuri by hotvenus *cough* which is a shame.. sometimes simple is best

“This is a lot of woman.” Yeah💀 They’re gorgeous but I am terrified of finding the space for them and the box. They’re also super pale. Paler than I’m used to seeing for anime figures tbh. It’s very noticeable when you compare them to the artwork from the doujin. I would have liked a bit more reddish shading on their skin, I think it makes them more erotic 🙈 but they still look nice. Really thorough, fair and fun review, the backstory at the beginning was funny and appreciated.

The box is the real problem! It's a monster! They don't really take up more space than two normal bunnies which is nice. Yes, they are very pale! That's something we totally glossed over. I concur with adding some red tones. Xin's color palette is so cool and it's a shame so many aspects are off. Thank you so much! 18+ figures are so much fun to review. Especially since so many have source material most people aren't privy to. It's a shame the algorithm hates 18+ content. Chizuru review literally had more views in less than 24hours haha.

@@KohaisCollection I’ve never had a 1/4th before but okay, it’s nice that it’s a good size for that category. That one is shorter so I suspect that had an effect too but yeah it sucks that 18+ content doesn’t do so well here. Other figure reviewers, I watch make their more adult-oriented content exclusive to Patreon for a similar reason. I hope you can justify making them available like this going forward, but if it comes to that I’d happily support a Patreon for it.

Then this would be an insane first 1/4th 😂 truly diving into the deep end! Yeah, we've seen that. Maybe keep the "uncensored" version off of KZitem. We're getting close to being able to join YT's Ad revenue program. If they deny us due to our content, then we'll have to come up with a plan moving forward. I'm 100% okay if they don't monetize our 18+ content. But if the whole channel can't be monetized because they exist, we might have to rethink what we do moving forward. Which would be a shame as we are really against censorship for sexual things. Yep! We want to do a Patreon with the intent for it to be a really small fee to join a Discord. We're honestly just waiting till maybe 2K subscribers? Possibly push off to 3K? We just don't want the Discord to feel dead because only a few people join, you know? But we really want to interact directly with everyone. Reddit can only be so much "fun" haha. But on Discord we can also give everyone access to our photos, voting for videos and future decisions, etc. We also have plans to have a "Student Council" that people can buy into to help us make executive decisions and mod the group haha. Should be a ton of fun!

I have never bought an anime figure before but am looking into it but don't know where to buy from I am kinda too shy for 18+ but like Nekopara and would like some tasteful figures that won't leave me red in the face if my family or friends happen to see them. I don't suppose you have any advice for me?
@KohaisCollection

18+ would be a wild place to start with anime figures for most of us haha. But there are most certainly some tasteful Nekopara figures such as the Chocola and Vanilla Chinese Dress figures (currently on sale! www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-129304). Our go to website is AmiAmi.com. This is a direct from Japan supplier that ships globally and allows you to purchase figures at or below MSRP at launch. You will pay in Yen (which right now is very weak against the dollar saving you a bunch of money). AmiAmi also allows you to preorder without putting any money down. They just request payment once it releases. The only struggle with AmiAmi is not knowing fully what to expect with shipping costs. They offer multiple services, but expect to pay anywhere from $10-20 for the cheap options for a scale figure, up to $100 for large scale bunnies or for fast shipping options. Another one we like is GoodSmileCompany, which is one of the largest manufacturer of figures, that does sell direct from their brands. If you just want to get your feet wet, Crunchyroll's store and Tokyo Otaku Mode are the easiest to understand and require payment up front for preorders. All values are displayed in USD. This makes them easier to navigate. Tokyo Otaku Mode is also known for having great sales where you get "cash back" in the form of their point system. Outside of some of their crazier sales (like 45% cash back), don't get too caught up in paying for their premium service. It really only benefits those that buy figures regularly (like 2-4 a month) and can balance the use of points. Otherwise, AmiAmi tends to be the same or slightly cheaper in the long run. I hope that helps you a little. Eventually we want to craft a series of videos targeted to beginners. Until then, feel free to keep this thread going with as many questions as you need :) We are happy to answer them!

I have seen chocola and vanilla as a pair in their waitress outfits and they are pretty cute so I think they are the front runners for my first buy. Still Satsuki and Ryuko look awesome but in their transformed versions but they are pretty racey the Anime was cool but took me so time to dare watch it but glad I did its more than just powerful women in skimpy outfits Satuski is my favourite would love a figure of her elegantly sipping tea of one exists.
