Advent Calendar 04: I think this might be a Bootleg

 

That's the risk with buying imports from Space "Australia". Usually when eBay says Seller is "Australian" they mean

The real toys get made in China. So it makes sense that bootlegs are also made in China...  I got a "Romankey × cowl" girl figure.

Articulation:

On Paper this figure has a shitton articulation.

In reality, the figures joints pop off randomly. Especially at the shoulders. Probably because I'm 98.76352% sure that I got scammed and this is most likely a bootleg.

Yup! I got scammed. Got partial refund from eBay. The quest for fodder bodies continues. Specifically an Irma Body.

So, I have to take this into consideration. As I don't have a genuine figure, I can't compare how bad the bootleg is. Wish I had seen that message before I ordered the figure back in 2024.

So the hypothetical articulation score would be:

5.0

But what I got is a

3.0 the whole falls apart when looked wrong doesn't help.

Sculpt:

I omitted the paint part since this chick is unpainted. 

It has a decent sculpt. Kinda reminds me of 

My third favorite JoJo's daughter... who is also a JoJo. 

Size wise she's as close of what I'd like on an Irma Body. I had to use the smaller breast option (which was a bitch to swap, due to this being a bootleg and all.) to make her more suitable for my needs.

She is also a bit TOO detailed. She has labia and nipples. Her male counterpart has multiple cock options.

Hypothetical score: 4.5

Actual score: 4.5

Accessories:

Alternate Torso (smaller boobs)

Alternate thighs

Spare hand and foot joints

8 extra Hands

The only thing missing are extra torso and crotch barbells. The Genuine figure probably wouldn't need them. But this bootleg does desperately. After the hassle, I had to go through by changing the large boobs to the smaller ones. I didn't even bother trying with the thighs.

Since the figure falls apart when looking at anything wrong.Any accessory that I tried to give the figure makes her arms fall off.

Hypothetical 5.0

Actual: 3.0

Overall:

Hypothetically this figure should've been  a 4.83 figure, but the shoddy quality of the bootleg puts her at 3.5 and I think that's too damn high. So let's do a pettiness adjustment of -5! (That's minus five factorial and not an exclamation.) Which puts her at -116.5 as her final score.

Skibidi...

Advent Calendar 03: Female Wrestling Announcer 2.0

 

Remember Last Year's Wrestling Compilation for the Advent Calendar? Well, Figures Toy Company made some updated figures and I got the new Female Announcer. You know that figurewise FTC is hit or miss, let us see if she's a hit or a miss...

I will post a stock photo, since I immediately removed her rubber dress and put on Last Year's previous female announcer's red dress on her.

First I need to point something out... she doesn't work well with Super7...

She seems to be true 1/12 and not 1/10...

Fuck! Fuck! Fuuuuuuuuuck!!

But her proportions seem slightly off with her head being a smidgen too small and her legs may be a bit stumpy. Seems Teen sized in 1:10

The arms and torso seem to be in scale with each other. It's the legs that seem shorter. Also, she has black panties.

Articulation:

She has Marvel Legends style articulation with double joints at the elbows and knees.

She has butterfly shoulders.

Hand placement not intentional.

The thigh articulation is a bit annoying due to her crotch. Thank goodness the soft goods dress allows for better articulation.

The rubber dress is a pain to pose. FTC should consider using soft goods dresses.

4.5 without the default dress. 3.0 with it.

Paint and sculpt:

The body sculpt isn't bad. Aside the stumpy legs thing.

 Heads aren't FTC's forte, so I expected an unholy abomination.

The only paint on this figure is on her boots and her face.The feet, the panties, and the hair seem to be molded in the appropriate color.

She has a sculpted tanktop bra unpainted. It looks weird.

4.0

Accessories:

Hands, headset, mic.

She can hold the microphone and the headset looks somewhat decent on her head. My only complaint is that the counting hands should be available for the left hand as well.

5.0 only by amount of accessories.

Overall:

Female Announcer gets an overall score of 4.5 AFTER switching dresses. Keeping her in the rubber dress gives her a 4.0 which is good, but could've been better. 

I guess she might end up as a "Midnight Bliss Ken".
