For the Ace Attorney fans on my list...

[aruru]

Eh, I've been meaning to post again after the deal with Omar, the Hurricane that Never Was* was done with, but since I haven't really been watching (Well, I did see like 3 more eps of Gintama last week, but I don't think I've seen enough to warrant another fangirling opinions/thoughts post yet.) or playing anything these past couple of days, I've been largely feeling uninspired to post. (I DID pick up Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia earlier today, tho', so I might start trying it out soon... I have an allergist appointment Thursday, so I might just fire it up during the wait at his office assuming I don't just go back to working on the second case of Ace Attorney 3, that is, heh...)

So, instead of a "real" post today, I'll just share this official Ace Attorney merchandise link I found that might interest... well, redconverse and arcian, at the very least: Volks, the well-known ball-jointed doll company, is making Ace Attorney series dolls action figures DOLLS action figures!

I thought the Ema one was the cutest of the lot, though Trucy is neat too. And I might've spoiled myself a little on Ace Attorney 4 by seeing Trucy's last name beneath her pic, LOL. Nick and Miles' figures are kind of too disconcertingly chibi in the facial design (Not to mention I'm not quite sold on those joints, eheh...), but they're still kind of squishy-adorable. And the unintentional flare on Mile's crotch area is hilarious.

Anyway... enjoy, y'all, and I'll try to post again soon, whenever I'm inspired!




* - You know, calling the storm by that title makes me think it should've been a weather pattern for the Nobodies' world in Kingdom Hearts 2, LOL. Also, in keeping with the Nobody theme, maybe it should be renamed to like... Maxor, or something. XD

NOT ENOUGH POINTS OF ARTICULATION IN THE CROTCH AREA.

The idea of the action doll figures is cool, but their joints look really weird, and unlike a "real" BJD, you can't cover them up with clothes, because their clothes are part of their molds. Unless those are just pictures of protoypes, I'm not that impressed.

YES, I WANT MILES' CROTCH TO MAKE THAT "NO-NO"-POINTING THING HE NORMALLY DOES WITH HIS FINGERS.

Yeah, the joints are kinda wonky-bizarre, hence why I said I wasn't really sold on them yet. I still do find them cute in an ugly sort of way, but that may just be either the fangirl or the cheesiness-lover in me talking, LOL.

(Plus, I suppose that, if someone's enough of a fanperson to get these, he/she could always cover the mold up by making/buying clothes of their own... it would work on the Nick figure, at least, since that one's not really holding any props that might get in the way.)

I still stand by my thought that the Ema one's cute, though - I think it's the face (caught mid-snacking) that makes it. XD
