Continuing with our endless reviews, next we have this cute and moe looking figure of “Nankyoku Sakura Maid Ver.” from Penguin Musume by Alter ^^
This 1/8 scale figure was released back in April 2009 and is part of collaboration with Good Smile Company for the series release. Good Smile Company also released the same character, which was Nankyoku Sakura Goth-Loli Yukata Ver. in the same month.
You can watch Episode 1 of the Anime below if you are unfamilar with the series. I totally recommend it:
The figure is standing at 23cm in height and is probably one of the most Moe looking figure out there ^^;
Well, first we have the Maid outfit with the short skirt, plus a complete set of Neko Mimi and tail. In addition, the character that we are talking about is Sakura herself with the series having one of the best character design out there ^^
Alter did a really good job on this one. Great detail on the maid outfit and love her face expression, not to mention the Dynamic pose which probably give the figure a plus. I personally prefer Alter version over GSC version, but nevertheless, both figures looks great. Well another is also because of the amount of fan service given ^^;
No extra accessories given, just a custom heart-shaped base stand with “Nankyoku Sakura” and the Penguin symbol printed on it.
On with the shots~

Loving this review! I love this figure a lot too. Great job with the shots & background.
I just wish her hair wasn’t a big single piece of plastic, and her left hand looks a little weird. Good job on this review!

I really like this one too, but the immense weight of her hair really worries me. I have visions of her cute little neck snapping under the weight one day 😦 Really hope not but the hair is ridiculously heavy. Mine also has a tiny painting flaw on her lower neck, which is disappointing, though it’s not really visible unless you’re staring at her from unhealthily close ^^
