Comment
This is another beautiful pre-painted PVC figure release by Max Factory. She is Irina Marcillen, from Genrin no Kishougun II. I could not find much information regarding the series and I believe she is a character taken from some Japanese H-Game produce by Eushully, a Hokkaido base game studio.

She is posed on her knees and praying with her angelic wings half spread open. As usual Max Factory quality, she is beautifully sculpted and painted.

We all know that PVC figure are mass produce goods and somehow somewhere it comes with unavoidable mold lines. This figure do comes with these imperfections too but then it is extremely well hidden. It will take the eye of an eagle to spot that and this alone makes Max Factory stand out among the crowd of PVC manufacturers. Paint job is extremely details. No paint run spotted and painting details is up to the point where she comes with painted fingernails.

There are 2 main gimmicks on this figure.

Firstly, it comes with semi-opaque parts (clear parts) that are getting popular among figures and Gashapons nowadays. I am grateful that Max Factory does not choose to use clear parts on her hair (like what most do now) but using it on her dress and wings. It is clearly seen as a smarter choice as the semi-opaque dress is much more attractive to the eye of its beholder.

Secondly, it is the "undress" options provided. PVC figure is a statue figure in PVC medium. A fixed pose figure is boring and there tend to be some creative of sculptors in Japan tend to come up with this alternative display option. Granted that Irina's dress is semi-transparent but then again, understanding the general perversion need of consumers, Irina's dress and blouse can be removed, providing full transparency for those unwilling to strain their eyes gawking her.

A black plastic base is included, oval in shape and measuring about 15 x 12 cm.
