Figma 003 Saber

Nothing terribly exciting has happened in my world in the past week. I’m still working hard on the goals that I set to be accomplished before I restart studies for the year. So far, so good. I have managed to maintain a ritual of daily exercise for the last 2-3 weeks; a mix of weights, workplace soccer and time on the exercise bike are starting to pay off. I’m not sure how well I’ll be able to maintain it once studies restart, but I’m hopeful I’ll be able to find some time. It beats doing absolutely nothing.

The dead line is just 10 days away. I think I have managed to progress at least two, possibly three of the goals I set in the Transitions post. With the final (fourth) goal dependent on be finding a place to live. Again, so far, so good.

My new Figma Saber figure arrived today. I must admit, I am very impressed with Japan Post. Ordered the figure on Sunday, sent Monday, arrived Thursday morning. That’s between Shibuya Tokyo and Canberra Australia. Not bad, especially with tracking the whole way…

Here is my makeshift miniature lightning studio for my miniature figures. I knew my semiconductors text would be useful for something…

One more figure and I think I get deemed a collector.

I did find the Figma Saber a lot more delicate compared to the Revoltech Saber I’ve posted earlier. It’s a little more fiddly to get Saber into the poses that I wanted, but Figma does give you a lot more flexibility in how she can be moved around, even before being able to interchange faces, hair, hands and swords. Whilst I do like the facial expression from the Revoltech figure better, I would highly recommend the Figma version just due to the options it gives.

Anyone looking for an excellent Cosplay of Saber should check out the work of Maridah. Her website can be found here. If anyone can claim to be a flesh and blood rendering of Saber, it’s her.
