Heavenly Nariko

Hello my imaginary reader!(time to time i like to pretend there’s someone reading my blog besides me while writing and i like to call that person “you”)

So, Last time i talked about how it takes a love match for me to make me some figures

This time, i made it out of pure hate!

Don’t get me wrong though, i actually love Nariko and think she could be one of the most iconic gaming girl characters, and by the promotion pics from DC Direct Unlimited i already knew that she wouldn’t look quite right. But they started postponing the release so many times that i actually hoped they would do something with it, you know? I thought i would have to see her to judge

However, if you’ve seen the released figure, you share my disappointment

I should have some comparison/before-after pics, but i was so overwhelmed with rage that i could not wait any second to rip that face off

so, you gotta trust these reviews for images OAFE and  someguoyonyoutubeiwon’tpretendlikeiknewbefore

since they’re getting free publicity (oh yeah, everytime i come in i’ll be hitting those links, so you better have your bandwidth prepared) i’m gonna rant on them too

one says the face is “nice” and the other blames society, but i think they miss the point:

1. She doesn’t look like Nariko
2. She does not look any asian
3. The face doesn’t even look good

So, i tried my best to come up with somewhat of a “mod”, i didn’t want to go all frankenstein and allnighter on her, that’s what i got

PS: I guess i can say i successfully achieved number 2 at least

PS2: yes Heavenly Nariko is that other site i always like to mention

PS3: only on

    How hard would it be for you to make another one of these custom nariko’s? How much would it cost me for you to make one like that for me?

One Trackback
