Thanks for tuning in. Sorry if the audio isn't great in this one. Kinda hate my mic I use for these types of videos so I'm planning to buy some sort of lav mic in the near future. Just gotta find something I can budget in that also isn't mediocre. Also for whatever reason, this video's bit rate look terrible at points. Not sure if anyone has noticed this recently, but RU-vid is starting to hit channels with "1080 premium" options if you pay for it(my channel doesnt seem to have this, but a few I watched today did). My original file for this video looks fine, so I suspect that they might just be lowering the bitrate across the board to encourage people to spend more money. Might have to start editing in 1440p now, which I don't mind, but I'm honestly unsure if my computer can handle it lol. Would love to bring you guys crisp 4K videos one day, but currently that's just not an option with my specs. If you read all this you're a real one
I think the video quality is more than good enough! U're literally filming at your home. Nobody expects film studio quality😂 You're doing great, Zucco! Keep it up♡
10:51 I love how long her hair is and how it stretches over the chair, changing it’s direction & then how it sits on the floor, really nice. Love her, she’s soooooo nice.
Man I love that rei figure I’ve also got her and she’s my fave rei figure and one of my faves overall. As you said, it’s simple but elegant and just has a real trendy vibe to it.
have to be honest the acrylic stands didn't quite attract me at the beginning, but they look great when you put them all together and the colours really pop - glad to see all the characters unite!
There's a new Asuna figure coming out where she's sitting on top of a roulette, I think I like that a little better. The hair sculpt for this Max Factory one though is really well done! Also, we should have more non-1/4 scale bunny girls!!!😆 I had to cancel my PO for BB since price+shipping+customs would've been a triple KO for my wallet! 😂 But woah her hair is massive!!! I was also exoecting tentacles only for the base. Wish you could take her off from the pedestal to save some space,,
Hello, it is I Shonen from the future! This figure got a re-issue recently so I decided to preorder it off Hobby Genki because I do not think Megahouse's Asuna will compare to be honest. We don't even have a prototype yet, soo. Besides, you can pair this with other hobby max blue archive figures if you want to since it seems that overall they have the best ones out right now? Them and GoodSmile I would say.
Honestly if you haven't watched any of the Anime yet(plenty to choose from and most I'd recommend) Just look around for designs you like lol. So many different characters and artists to choose from, you're bound to find something
Geez, I keep trying to post all the Fate movies and the order to watch them but RU-vid just keeps deleting the post & I’ve no idea what’s getting it deleted so I’ve no idea what to edit.
Yeah I put her in the detolf and she has to be alone due to her size lol. At least she fills it up nicely instead of awkwardly like some other figures.
The Asuna figure is so nice! I considered picking her up, I only regret it a little bit. I love the l acrylic stands! I have a fair collection of them mostly for characters I love but they don't have figures😅
Nice haul! 😍The Rei figure looks really nice. I haven't had time to unbox mine, so hopefully my copy doesn't have the base wobble issue. She doesn't look smol to me here for a 1/7 scale. Rei is the shortest and probably the most petite Eva pilot, so it make sense that she is shorter than the 1/7 Radio Eva Asuka, albeit by a dif manufactuer.
I got the tanned version of BB. And how i wish i had the money to get both. They look so good together based of the pictures i saw from MFC. The flawless version definitely wins the default faceplate with the winky face with the tongue out. It looks super cute! Anyways great review! And keep up the good comtent! :)
22:44 Oh wow, I was thinking of getting her because she’s so nice, but I didn’t know the character & the other Fate characters I’ve been buying are 1/7. But she looks incredible, so nice.
W, missed the notif apparently. BLUE ARCHIVE STONKS LESGOOO. Asuna is a really bright and fun character. People compare her to a golden retriever and it's pretty accurate. She is also pretty innocent, she doesn't know why the bunny suit makes people around her happy 🤭
If I didn't record a lot of my videos with my phone(usually the news videos) I'd probably give the game a try out of curiosity, but I can already tell I'm frying my battery with how much I record lol. Can't be playing mobile games on top of that
hell yeah embrace that acrylic stand collecting. honestly the set you bought look really fun, the name plate in front of them is kinda obnoxious? but I feel like you could pop it out and put another character there if the acrylic peg is the same-ish size. having two characters on one stand might save for space too, then you have a cool little duo piece
I still haven’t opened my Alter Rei haha, she’s still in the box, but I also bought the 1/7 Asuka from Revolve to go with her and they look similar in size. Now that’s looking at them in the boxes, I haven’t opened Asuka either. I also have the 1/7 Misato & PenPen from MegaHouse and she looks even smaller than Rei, it’s hard to tell in the box but she does appear to be smaller. I’ve so many boxes of figures stacking up here. And I’ve just bought 6 of the Union Creative To Love-Ru Darkness figures & preordered the other 4, I’m still missing Ryouko Mikado, she sold for €830 on Animota but I hope I can get her cheaper than that haha. So I’m going to have to open all these boxes soon or I’ll be swimming in them.
I have that Rei on my radar just couldn't afford it right away. She will go perfectly with the Alter Asuka. But I recently received my Asuna figure. Safe to say wont be my last Blue Archive figure. Max Factory killed it. I should have known after receiving my Houshou Marine. Great haul!!
Great pick up and haul video! Ehhh... I initially cancelled my PO for the Asuna figure... but now re-picked up through Amiami again due to this video :V As mentioned by yourself, her price seems to have shot up overall, so I am happy to be able to grab her for retail still. I also picked up the Rei and BB before and they are such beau in their own rights.
@@ZuccoFigures they did indeed. You’re spot on about the chest mold. That was the first thing that caught my attention because she did not look that busty previously. Not a problem for me though, I dig it.
That not Rei Rei is one of my favorites from this year... so simple and sublime... unfortunately acrylic opens up under stress over time, but if you apply a bit of downwards force on the base, it should push the peg right back up and in...
Damn didn't even think about that lol. How convenient. Sorry to hear about the scuffs though. Pretty rare to get a spotless figure these days so hopefully it doesn't bother you too much
Me slowly realizing how popular Blue Archive is has been fun. I'm fine with it though because out of all these mobile games I feel like I click with alot of the designs from it
I don't own that one so my opinion isn't the best, but I've always thought that figure looked nice from the photos. It's just kinda hard to compete with this new BB from a design standpoint. If you have the space I say go for Alter's, especially as the price is going down lately
Nice video and a very fun haul. Gotta say, this time around we saw a bit of a cheeky / sassy Zucco ❤😂 As for the audio, maybe you don't need a better mic but an audio recorder? Like Zoom's H1n or smth...?
I guess I can't say for sure yet, but I can tell there's a big difference between my two microphones. Any video of mine that doesn't feature my mxl 990 mic has bad audio that I have to heavily modify in post to get it sounding decent. Distance from the mic plays a huge part in that, but it hard to unbox figures with a big mic right in front of me lol
Wonderful video! Acrylics aren't my favorite, but I certainly wouldn't disparage you for showing them off. That commenter needs a life. I'm happy you enjoyed them and I had fun seeing them!
Is X3 your favorite in the series? Mine's 1. It's also possible that the artbooks may be localized if there's a special occasion with a remaster or demand, but probably not at this point. I have a few artbooks in japanese (tactics ogre and nier) that randomly released in english years later which sucks. At least its mostly artwork
I need to replay 1 to confirm my feelings, but for me it goes 3 > 1 > 2. 1 is fairly close to 3 for me either way, love the cast and the world design is unmatched(though X looks like the best world to explore, really need to get around to playing it)
Honestly I'm a bit let down by the Rei, besides the face and hair being amazing, the rest is just okay.. There is no metallic shimmery paint on the plugsuit that was on the prototype, I think it definitely could've been better.
@@ZuccoFigures Right, I didn't know what to call it, but it's missing that extra pop that was there. I also have Alter's Frederica, and for less money she has more going for her, so it's tough for Rei.
Nice! I did my unboxing haul and opened up my own BB and Rei. Seems like great minds think alike! I also got Azur lane Prinz Eugen and the alter Arcued fugire
Oh yeah. Asuna, I didn't know whether to buy this one or wait for the school uniform one. I do like the latter uniform a bit more, but so far only Megahouse announced one and to be honest I do not think their quality can compare
@@ZuccoFigures Its weird because I don't buy gacha women that often. Fate is an exception so I guess I would have to put her in the Azur Lane section of my shelf I suppose. Wish the base was a tad smaller though
@@ShonenJump121 Same. Fate was the only one till I looked into Blue Archive a bit. Haven't bit the bullet yet on Azur Lane but probably will eventually
@@ZuccoFigures Considering how oversatured the market feels by Azur Lane figures, for one to catch my eye it has to be somewhat special. I liked Honolulu, Azuma and Phoenix Spring Taihou. Although maybe its just the Alter quality with all of these being by them.
Damn. I had seen the BB figure before but had no interest in it whatsoever. Your haul video changed my mind on it. What a gorgeous figure! 😱The hair sculpt is so insane. The faceplate is so cute and they did such a good job on the paintwork.
Hey zucco! Love the video. I finally decided that artorias will be my first gecco figure when it comes out for preorder. Do you think you will get it? Im guessing the price is going to be insane. Prob 50k?
I very much want to get Artorias. I most likely will, but I'm expecting a pretty hefty price tag. Sekiro was like 45k and that went up for order years ago, so I'm kinda worried Artorias will reach the 60k price point. Hopefully we find out soon
Zucco!! Did you really not notice the sculpting/placement issue (concerning BB) with the hand that is supposed to hold the ribbon, but is awkwardly floating above it!?😮😥
I didn't until after I was filming since she was pointing towards the camera while I was talking about her. Downside of doing all this in one take. You're right though. There's instructions in the box talking about it though I can't read them unfortunately, but it kind of implies you can nudge it into place or something?
@@ZuccoFigures I see. That sounds like an easy way to scrape of some paint or have red paint transfer onto the white glove. 😥 Let me know if it worked for you! I'll get my BB figure in a couple of months and I'm quite worried if I'll have the same issue.
I believe if you look up "Yuanj Rotating Display Turntable" on amazon you should find it. Pretty basic, sometimes makes a little bit of noise though that doesn't matter since my footage is muted
I really want to but my room is a mess and most of my figures are in boxes. Was supposed to move months ago but can't find a decently priced place anywhere near me, so I'm just in a weird place(figuratively and literally)
That Hololive Sonic Korone plushie is soooo cute! I would love to pick her up, but I am already past the point of no return with Tsukumo plushies. Uuuuu, Nendoroid Jill Stingray! Cute as she is, I shall withhold my purchase until more Nendoroids from VA-11 Hall-A are announced. I know this is probably too much to ask, but I would really love to see the whole set made, at least for all the major characters. The only ones I am aware of are Jill and Dorothy. "Isn't this not excessive? It is bigger than my head, like, by a lot." ..... (〃ω〃) ..... I am sorry. I missed the part about the base, and my mind wandered to where it shouldn't. I love the Xenoblade merch, especially the artbooks and the two indie fumos! The coasters may go well with the acrylic stands. I too miss the old-style magazines.
I do wonder how far they'll go with Va-11 hall-A but I kinda expect them to stop at dorothy. Could be wrong though since Jill sold out for the most part(though who knows how many actually sold)
You actually can take it off to my surprise, though it's on her head pretty tight and some of the pieces of this plush feel pretty fragile so be careful about that. The hood is also very thick so it takes up alot of space in the back
I wish the preorders came in a simple box to reduce shipping. Its not sitting on shelf. Find another means to protect figures. Also I dont get the obsession for stupidly long hair. 2 examples here, plus a lot of azur lane.
I don’t understand what you mean, most of the boxes are created to protect the figures & prevent breakages. Most boxes are created pretty good & making them slightly smaller is not going to really make a difference with shipping.
Lots of hair in this one. I do love some good long hair. Asuna and BB may be some of the best there are in that regard. They look great, and I think you're right about BB. She may be 1/8th, but is probably about the size of most 1/7ths or maybe even a bit bigger in terms of presence. It's kinda like how Lip is a 1/7th who is about as functionally big as a 1/4th due to her hands. Anyway, great video, thanks for sharing the goods. 👍
