Figma Memory

Very old pics of my first figma, Saber-chan ^^. I remember it like it was yesterday when I received her at my doorstep. I was very anxious to rip apart the box and play around with her, but impatience leads to the dark side!

My HDD has enough pictures to fill up an old 03 sony vaio computer's memory (About 70 gig) so I definitely need to sort my pics neatly into their own folders when I have time. But since I found these pictures of the unveiling for Saber figma, I might as well show you a "How to" when handling a closed box.

Many go after the top of the box first, but I tend to break open the bottom for those who want to keep their boxes after they take out the goods. This way, any damage the box takes won't be shown since the bottom is face down (durr).

Gently slide out the plastic case from the box and voila! You'll be met with the figure enclosed in two more plastic cases ^^;

The top plastic casing should be removed. Carefully pull on the 4 edges of the plastic to loosen it since its kind of tight, this way you won't pull it out by force, causing all of the pieces to fly all over the place...Once its loose from all sides, gently pull it upwards.


The first thing you'll want to move aside is the accessories at the bottom of the figure. It comes with a head removal instruction paper, a figma bag to keep your accessories from being misplaced, and the multi-hands for the figure.

behind the figure is the figma stand and the balance arm that plugs into the back of the figma for unique poses.

The figure itself has some plastic surrounding it. You'll want to gently pull out the figure by grabbing the plastic behind it and lift it out.

Plastic underneath her skirt...taking protection to a whole new level ^^;;;
REMOVE IT!!

Ganbate! She is finally free from her plastic prison ^^
Photo-op moment:
She didn't like it when I pulled out the plastic underneath her skirt ^^;;;....


Reminds me I need a new camera. Hopefully I can find a point-and-shoot with 10mp for around $200-300!
