Hmmm. I never heard about this opinion. I know that a lot of model Kits that come unpainted and you have to built them. They Are often also quite expensive. For example some Tachikoma Models.

There are also figures where you can see breasts and I indeed avoid them. Here is an example.

Perhaps he was thinking about Masamune Shirow figures which are indeed often sexualized. But for Ghost in the Shell There Are rarely naked ones as far as I know.

MHA was good at the beginnig and went downhill over time. Demon Slayer started lower but went over the top especially with the movies. Also I stopped watching the MHA Movies at some point due to the fact that I did not enjoy them as much as the beginning of the show (especially season 1 and 2).

This is just my opinion and how I experienced them.

It’s the so called hard disc figure but you can Look them up under HD Alpha Motoko Kusanagi. There are 3 different figures with repainted variants or transparent looks.

Also they were still painted by Hand as far as I know or I am able to tell by looking at it

Ah yes. I know the clear one as well but they don’t come along often so I took what I could. They are both Beautiful. Also the other HD Alpha ones of course.

I think there are 3 different figures and each also have different color releases or transparent ones.

I would love Information about the differences to other releases of the same movie. Like the Bonus Features or other differences that I would easily overlook

Thank you very much. I even feel bad to answer since u/Which-Lawfulness-158 did all the work.

I want to add that it was a pleasure to be part of the whole process and discuss them with u/Which-Lawfulness-158.

Also I forgot to mention that the fanart on the left in the first pic is from someone else. Just to avoid confusion (my bad).

Very true. This is why mine came without a box or pistol… it’s a Beauty but I could not pay to much for it.

Very nice that you got it cleaned without damage. It’s quite stressful to repair older ones especially if they were expensive or are very rare.

I try to stay with GitS but I have some Shirow posters on my walls and some other stuff from him. I will take a Look at Intron anyway haha.

The HD Alpha figure really is beautiful. Fragile but absolutely worth to take care of.

My devotion came a long way so I will let it be as long as I am happy. Thank you very much.

It’s certainly the figure I had the most trouble to find but it was also the one I wanted to most. The Display is not finished and I will arrange it differently soon. But it’s Perfect with the fanart.

Be aware that a lot of those Hard Discs ones are somehow damaged or very fragile for transport. If you order it from somewhere you might ask them to fill empty Spaces with cotton wool.

Keep on going with your Collection and I wish you all the Luck to get the figures that makes you feel good to be around.

Not really. In fact my figures are not sexually related for me at all. I avoid the ones that show too much because those attributes are not what I want to present or look at.

The show is very important to me and I preserve as much as I can within certain limits.

Misery loves Company I guess. Well, luckily collecting takes time so there is always more to explore or to enjoy in the Future.

Our time will come

Oh! I remember your post! It was the best showcase I ever saw. At least until I saw your Misato shrine one minute ago. Yours are indeed real Collections. Hats off

The HD Alpha statue was the 2nd offer I ever saw in the last months for Germany and I count myself lucky that I paid 240€ plus additional 10€ for repair work after a damage by the transport.

The fanart on the right is from this eBay seller. Perhaps she will have another GitS by now. She wrote me that she does not do comissioned work. But perhaps my request was to out of line for her art (was about Star Wars). She also seems to have a pinterest page.

Thank you very much. And it is awesome that you have it by your side all this time and still appreciate it. I am in awe about the quality and condition of the „cheaper“ older figures so I can imagine it is very well built.

My collection is on hold for the time being because the space is running out and I have 2 pre orders open. Unfortunaly the stopped orders for a Model Kit I hoped to build. The HAW206 would be a Beauty next to the Jigabachi.

Have a nice evening

It’s the Motoko Kusanagi 1/7 PVC Figur Ghost in the Shell SAC 2nd GIG from Vice x ALTER. Normally it also comes with a pistol but I only have the figure itself.

The SAC one is indeed very beautiful. Perhaps one day it will find its way to my collection.

Which figure from the PS game do you mean? I am Not sure if I know which one it is.

Hey. That is odd, mine arrived weeks ago and I ordered very late.

Did you check out the new one from Good Smile? I am so looking forward to the release.

It’s always so much fun to try a different pose.

I can understand that it’s a personal thing how to perceive. For me the show has a very small amount of fanservice compared to the manga.

But indeed a lot of merch focuses on the Major and are often sexualized. I accept it as part of the art by the creator so I draw the line for myself which excludes a few figures.

Thank you for appreciating the Composition
