I really like the pose and the attention to detail in the hair and uniform; it really looks like she's turning towards a nice summer breeze. But the eyes and nose look a little bit off to me, and even more so for the Kanna figure, unfortunately.
I'm definitely looking forward to this figure, though -- it's not quite as detailed, but it's a great pose and I like the sundress; it's a nice change from the school uniform that all my other figures have. |

Close up, that Misuzu figure isn't as good as what I had gathered from other photos I've seen. On the flip side, the Kanna figure looks much better than I had anticipated, especially because I haven't been a big fan of the Happinet (That's them, right?) figures for Air and Kanon thus far. And wings... I love me some wings. I may have to pick that up when it becomes available on HLJ.

hmmm, somehow I've ended up with two copies of AIR volume 1 released by ADV.... must pay more attention to my pre-orders.
Ah well, off to ebay, I guess. On the DVD --- I'd forgotten just how wonderful the initial meeting of Yukito and Misuzu was ... and how much I liked parts of the musical scoring.

vol 1, 2, and 3 are now loose in the wild -- my volume 3 just shipped from DVDPacific.
I was hoping to sit down and watch ... hopefully I'll have a lot of rainy days this winter.

I've known about animesuki.com since like 2004 I think, but just now have made an account. I'm very interested in contributing to the visual arts/Key, and Kyoto Animation sections. I'll make my first post in this very interesting topic.
I first saw and fell deeply in love with Air in 2005. My first Air product (besides the Gao Gao shirt from Cafepress) was the figurine of Misuzu that came out during the games time. I REALLY wish that there was an English fansite that had a master list of every official Air product to be released. I have 4 Air figurines, a (found out it was fake T^T) copy of the Movies soundtrack, a large and small Kano plushie, Large Minagi plushie, and a medium sized Michiru plushie. I have the Series wonderful artbook. (still want to buy the movie artbook but I don't fear it going anywhere) For the past 3 years nonstop I've been searching all over the internet and making online friends over this. One nice person really helped me get into the hobby of Figurine collecting and my next figurine will be the Kotobukiya version of Misuzu (found it for sale after searching for a year) followed by the 3 Clannad figurines once I get the money. I really want squishy stuff though! Thats why I love my plushies even though they just sit untouched on my shelf. I'm well aware of the Misuzu body pillow case that I've been eyeballing for years now. It's $130+ USD on Yahoo Japan auction and thats just sooo much money for something that cost so little to make. I'd buy it if I knew how to buy from Yahoo Japan. I mean, Ive heard of those companies like Cresent that can bid for you and all that, but I was hoping one of you could give me a short guide on exactly how to do it. I'm sure i'll need to get my own credit card for it, and have to understand how it works and the extra fee's that would apply. The Poteto plushie is something I've had my eyes out looking for which seams like forever now. I definitely could have gotten my hands on it if I used yahoo Japan auction 3 years ago! =( Now it's seaming more and more hopeless ans the time goes by. My best hope would probably be if one of you bought any extras and were willing to sell me it. I tried ebay nearly every day, and still do, but it's horrible for Air merchandise. I don't think I'll ever be offered a Misuzu plushie either. I've yet to see one for sale and have been saving a spot on my shelf for her for the 3 years. =( Not to mention that there is at least 2 versions of her. That I know for sure. Actually a guy at anime boston told me he sold one just the night before. I was so bummed when I heard but was happy to of at least bought the Misuzu figurine even though I could of gotten it cheaper online at the time. I just wish I was more serious into buying anime merchandise when I FIRST saw Air. I even turned down the chance to buy that Doll of Misuzu. It hurts to think about it because I know I'll never find it again and I had the money at the time. I also could of Pre-ordered every Air figurine since I saw them all on HLJ. It was stupid of me to just this year start seriously buying figurines n stuff since I missed all the pre-orders and am finding myself spending my whole time just looking for these items. Seams like every time I go to yahoo Japan auction I find more and more Air products that I haven't seen before. If I knew how to buy them (or bid) and if it was simple and not a huge annoying process, then I'd definitely do it. I'll stop now and make my way to the Air ending thread. I loved reading other peoples thoughts about the open ending and really wish Key would just tell us what they thought when they wrote it! I've spent so much time at night, in school, doing whatever, thinking about Airs memories and especially the ending to the series and the Movie. I wish I could speak with Key so badly... -Yukito590 |
