Couture De Force Disney Showcase Collection - Coronation Anna Review

 Look who came in on mail day! I pre-ordered her back in November, and she was finally shipped out; and she arrived in perfect condition!

 

This is from the Disney Couture de Force figurine line (they have various villains and princesses in this line as well)

This dress is my favourite of hers in the movie, so I'm always on the lookout for merch in her coronation outfit!

 The bottom of the figure has the basic info; the line its from, the company that produced it, etc.

 A couple of different views; here she is from her right side

From behind

 

From her left side.

 A close up on her bodice. True to her movie counterpart; she has the same pattern on the front; her necklace has a single green rhinestone and her colours are for the most part; movie accurate.

 

 A close up on her face. She even has freckles on her face and shoulders.

 

 Her hair is done accurately as well. With an intricate braid at the top and a swirled bun on the back.

 Here's a few shots with my camera's macro lens. You can see the super tiny detailing on her bun's hair piece.

 Her fan shares the same level of detailing down to the glitter and the etched design.

 She wears two dark green bracelets on both arms; AND she even has the tiniest ring on her left pinky finger - a gold band with a single pearl. (The amount of detailing so far is great).

 A close up of her ring.

 A close up on her hair; she also has matching pearl earrings.

 Her bun is so intricately detailed.

 Another fantastic detail; her hair ribbons are not sculpted; they're /actual/ ribbons! In three shades of green.

Overall I am very impressed with this figure. The level of detailing is on par with that of her LE doll. And for a cheaper price. I may get Elsa's figure in the future, but as of now, I'm fine with just my favourite character.

My Little Pony Funko Vinyl Collection - Princess Cadance

As we wait for the new Disney/doll wave to come upon us, I've decided to review something new to cleanse the palette a little bit. Today I received my vinyl Princess Cadance figure by Funko! This is her normal version; I was unlucky enough to not get her clear chase glitter variant which is a 1/24 chance. 

 Here she is in her box; and actually, it's quite bigger than I imagined. The box itself is nicely engineered; with a window on the front and left side to see her at different angles.

 The box features much of her art; and even goes so far as to decorate the black background of the box in her "pattern" and outline the rainbow of the logo in her main colours.

 The top of the box features a full body shot, her name, the logo and her scheme of colours on the left side.

Her pattern on the box.

 The background she comes with in the box is easily removable and is red with her pattern on it as well.

 Out of the box she is a pretty heavy figure; definitely solid and not hollow. She can stand on her own without need of a stand (due to her feet and weight)

 She is also very show accurate from the colours to the accessories, marks and gradient of her wings.

 A cool thing about this figure is that her hair does not obstruct the view of her other eye!

 Her colours are vibrant; and her mark is neatly done on both sides of her.

 She has shoes accurate to her show counterpart on all four hooves,

 And her necklace as well.

 She also has her crown.

 The paint job on her crown is a bit sloppy, but can easily be fixed with similar coloured paint.

 The gradient on her wings is a nice touch as well.

On the bottom of her feet is the logo. (I suppose you could use this as a way to make sure you don't have a fake if you do buy this figure on the secondary market.)

Overall this figure has reached above my expectations and the quality control seems to be top notch this time around. I own a few of funko's pop figures, and many times I've strayed from purchasing them online due to the hit-or-miss of receiving a terrible paint job and opting to hunt for one in store and selecting one that isn't completely messy. Let's hope that from this point on, all the figures will have the same quality control.

That's all for now, stay tuned for next time~
