KOTOBUKIYA NODOKA TAKAHATA

The face plates are beautifully painted straight out of the box, which saved me a ton of time on detailing. Assembly took a couple evenings, but every part clicked together cleanly and the final pose holds perfectly.

The joints on this kit are surprisingly smooth for a bishoujo figure, holding poses really well during display. I was also impressed by the clear parts included for the weapon accessory.

The face plates are so crisp and the bishoujo styling really pops once you finish panel-lining her. Assembly took me a relaxed evening, and the fit of the limbs was snug without needing glue. Really happy with how she turned out on my shelf.
