Review: Nendoroid Touwa Erio

For some reason, my usual store didn’t offer the preorder for this lovely lass and before I knew it, she was released. Due to the high levels of futon loving folks, I was unable to grab this delusional chick for a decent price until recently, where someone decided to sell theirs so here’s the overlong review…of the girl who believed she was an alien! U.F.O launching~

Erio comes bundled in the larger Nendoroid box, probably due to that futon.

I really love the hair sculpt GSC went with Erio. Very flowy and messy~ There’s this strand of hair coming across her shoulders but it’s pretty bendy and keeps out of the way so no posing nightmare there. Other than that, there are some pretty obvious seamlines at the back of her head but since it’s at the back….well it isn’t too bad~

Erio connects via a magnet and that thing is pretty strong and idiot proof.

Erio isn’t the most well groomed character and it shows. An exposed sexy shoulder and crumpled sleeves adds to the whole outta bed look.

For some reason this neutral expression is really alluring..I never really thought I would say this..but this Nendoroid manages to be both sexy and cute..A Nendo sexy..? =/ Buriki’s artworks coming through I suppose?

Accessories wise, it’s all futon related somehow with a UFO lantern/stick thing thrown in for good measure.

This piece is really chunky and possesses some heft to it. It’s pretty well done as well with the string cutting into the futon.

Then you get the UFO lantern thing…That’s a pretty good accessory to go with in case you’re suffering from futon fatigue..

But if you’re not, you get even more choices! Here you have one with Erio’s head peeking out with her body in bondage~

The final expression is a licking one and maybe it’s because I’m warped but it’s just odd seeing it on a Nendo =3 Anyhoos the tongue comes out so it really feels like Erio’s gonna lick you like a kitten.

Remember the sexy Nendo vibe..well here is more of that!

In case it didn’t hit you, you can actually have 2 Erios running about! So essentially you’re getting 2 Nendoroids for the price of one?

What do school skipping girls do? Become an Alien investigator of course!

Conclusion:

I really really like this release. I mean there’s a whole girl trussed up inside a futon..who can possibly hate on something like that? My emotions aside..this is a really fun Nendo as you do get 2 figures (in a way) in a single package and it’s gonna look so good on display. Her emotions though lacking in range is pretty appropriate for Erio and the accessories serves to supplement her character. A major drawback I encountered while messing about this Nendo is that she has NO extra right arm part. Since her shoulder is exposed, you can’t switch in any left arms so you’re stuck with a straight right arm all the time. The other arms are pretty limited in usage as well so if you are looking at more than the box poses, it might be a tad inconvenient. That being said I still love Erio and if you’ve watched the Anime, it’s uncanny how the Nendo captures her so perfectly XD

cousin..bring me to the moon?
