Released way back on 2003. I was lucky to have found this MOElicious figure in stock at HLJ pricing 3,800 yen.
This character, Nanoca Flanka, an inventive engineer is from the anime show called "Tristia of the Deep Blue Sea".
I have watched the show way back 2004 when the OVA was still a fresh release and some weeks ago for a re-run.
This figure measures around 16-18cm.
Her ponytail is really huge that I had a hard time looking for an angle which is suitable for this figure. In the end, I only got these angles which is already "good" for me.
MOElicious views.
Her boots are cute as well...
Her hammer was quite a pain at first cuz I had to analyze the design on the window box (and the instruction provided) on how to place the hammer in her hands being semi-wrapped by front of her right arm.
The instruction stated that the tail end of the hammer should first be removed then slip it into both her arms but the tail end was really hard to dettach. But in the end, I still managed to do the thing.
Would love to have Panavia if available. But unfortunately, I haven't heard any news that the company would create/sculpt her yet.
