Oh wow yeah that's def a female body mold of Zero-Two and is shorter. Don't know why they felt the need to do a 2-pk and including a stand doesn't appeal to me personally.

A 2-pack with 01 is both extremely interesting and funny given this is that figure's, what, 6th release including Realizing and Ichiban? I never thought anyone would overtake Build but here we are. Since I don't actually have a Rising Hopper yet I might have to go for this one; I was considering Ichiban but I guess this'll depend on if there's any exclusive accessories. Where'd you get this image btw? |

Honestly the Ichiban figuarts lack a lot of paint compared to the standard release figuarts. At a glance you may or may not see all the paint they removed or decided to not paint but for me once it was a deal breaker. Imo I'd say go for regular release Rising Hopper or Realizing Hopper if you want a translucent version

Looking over that video I'll admit I didn't realise that some paint apps were in fact missed -- the green buckle on the back of the belt being silver; the hips not being painted yellow just above where the legs end; and the lack of red lines on the lower legs. Though I think for me those wouldn't matter much -- the latter two I again completely failed to notice until this video and if I got the figure without watching it I probably never would have realised; and I think the silver buckle on the belt is actually an improvement even if it's not accurate! In fact the missing yellow makes the colour scheme on the figure specifically more coherent due to the yellow only being on the legs and not continuing up a separate part. Just sort of makes sense in my mind, you know?
Thank you for pointing this out to me, it's good to know about these kind of flaws; but it may actually have reinforced my decision if anything!

Give me a min trying to find the first youtube video review I saw someone did when they 1st came out I believe it was Toyhaco. I know for Zero-One the neon yellow parts on his belt are left unpainted. I have the clear version of Horobi and the straps are unpainted
Edit: nevermind thanks for replying with the video MrWilliamGraham! |

Every new Zero One announcement reminds how exceptional the suit design is.
I'm super happy to see more female figuarts. This gives me the tiniest of hope that we may see a Sophia Calibur.

Don Momotaro makes me ridiculously happy, I wished for this to happen too often than I would like to admit. And they did not disappoint, it looks amazing. The only thing I could want at this point is for them to include his hand fan, but I wouldn?t be mad if they decide not to. He already has all the weapons he needs.
SHF Upgrade is definitely gonna step in here...

Will Izu-Two be available alone or only in the two-pack? I love Zero-One's design but not enough to own two.
Also of course she's an exclusive. Was a regular Zero-Two ever teased or are we actually getting her first? |
