Figure based on the art of Shunya Yamashita. It has an excellent size for working and is very beautiful.
The fittings of the breasts area need a lot of work. The resin is of very good quality.

Figure magnificent, the pieces fit together very well. Well packaged and protected. This is my second order of E2046. The shipment arrived quickly, even before my first order (which has not yet received).

No problem getting the kit. It took 3 weeks from order, to pay, to my home. I like the figure. This is my second second try at GK building, so I'm not an authority. This is not a resin. The material bends a bit, but it can snap in half if you're not careful. It looks like nearly every seam will need some finesse since they do not fit without gaps. THere are also a few parts that didn't line up for the casting, and I'm wondering how they will turn ourn out since they're small and can only take so much puddy or sanding. There seems to be alot of slop, at least compared to the resin model I just finished, and I dislike the roughness on the inside of the pieces. All and all it's a pretty shoddy kit, and I have reservations about ever ordering another 'anti-hero'. Even so, I'm looking foward to completing this kit. The figure is interesting and I have a nice paint scheme for it.

Had my eye on this one for a while and I'm glad I got it.
It's a really great design with great casting , it was well packaged as usual .
Thanks a lot

Very pleased , early impressions show fine moulding, with only a small amount of final clean up being required. General fit is good, a couple of items give a small shudder of fear but I will try my hardest to be equal to the lovely lady.

Really nice kit. Arrived within 3 weeks, and everything was extremely well-packaged. The resin pieces were in great condition with minimal flash and fit well with minimal effort.

Excellent fit and instruction. Casting is fantastic. This kit is a lot of fun to build and she looks amazing. Looks good with a mirror display base.

This is a beautiful kit. The design is sweet and the sculpture crisp. Making it all come together is a clean casting with a tight fit.
The customer service and purchase easy was quality as always.

Amazing. This is my first Antihero kit and it is literally awesome. There is no need at all for pinning and the kit can be assembled with little to no adhesive. I have only primered it so far but I am looking forward to adding this to my collection.

she is so pretty thank E2046

Great model. Excellent packaging, received with no damage. Good casting, not much clean-up required. Peices fit together nicely, only area that really need a bit of work was between her top and her boobs, but was fairly easy to fix. She look great when finished (I think so anyway).

Hi all
I bought this kit earlier in the year and as normal it arrived in good condition and packed excellently. I though that instead of doing a review straight away just from looking at the parts I would wait until I put it together.
This is the first Antihero kit that I have done (But I have few others waiting) and I have to say that I was impressed, all the joints had excellent connection (better than most GKs) and all fitted together great. The only little bit of work I needed to do was the join between upper and lower torso, which was not as tight as I would like so I did a little putting. There was only a minimal clean-up and no air bubbles.
All in very happy with the kit and am looking forward to putting together the other Antihero kits.
Thanks

I have been a fan of Shunya Yamashita's artwork for quite sometime now and let me just say this sculpt is awesome. The kit is nearly flawless, with very little flash. A+ again E2046 ^_^

Well, at least one of the missing ones has arrived, let's hope the others will follow. I'm glad I received Kureha first though, or I might have been a little disappointed from AntiHero. But now I know that things have been improved.
The good: the size is excellent. The sculpt is nice (although in the ref pic her expression is a little scary, but I guess that's a paint job issue). I also like the fact that, coming from a PVC, all the parts almost snap on and pinning is barely required. The packing was excellent too.
The bad: I pretty much agree with these 2 reviews, since mine must have come from the same batch:
http://www.forum.e2046.com/viewtopic.php?t=22343
http://www.forum.e2046.com/viewtopic.php?t=22322
Basically, the fit is excellent almost everywhere except on the torso area. And I too find that sort of gap between the boot and the thigh (the left one) which should have been fixed prior to casting. It won't be a big problem though. The breast piece doesn't fit perfectly and it's also quite rough. Please see the pics jedimastr took.
All in all these flow are fixable, so I'm glad I was able to get this nice sculpt of Cocona (Kokona, as it should be spelled) `

I received her today, what a happy day! I've wanted her as a kit ever since I saw her as a pvc mock-up. There are some fit issues which others have mentioned, but nothing that can't be fixed. There are also some rough patches, but they're in ok areas for it, and nothing that sanding can't cure. I just love how the places that need to fit together have such deep male/female parts already. And all those little pieces, it was much better than I hoped for. (I like the little pieces that make the kit more complex.) The handle for my sword wasn't attached, either. I know that others have said that it was broken, but since so many of us have it like that, I'm thinking it's supposed to be that way, so the handle's easy to attach instead of being broken in some horrible way.
I don't know if you guys put in the parts I need for my RT1451 Non Tatsumaki Zankanto, but I didn't see them in the box. I thought you had them in and were waiting for an order to be shipped to me. I mentioned it with my paypal payment to please include them. Can someone there at e please find out what happened to them? Thanks!

This is my first review of an Antihero kit. Since these are pre-existing PVC figures, I will review this a bit differently.
Character/Sculpt: Good representation of Shunya's work. Its hard to pass up on anything based on Shunya's work. Score: A
Casting Preparation: Since this was a PVC figure, there are a lot of open cavities so the original PVC manufacturer good save on material. But I think the factory should have filled these in before casting the molds as it would have made the original PVC parts less flexible. There were also some rough spots that should have smoothed out before casting the molds (see photo). Score: C+
Cast/Kit: As another reviewer reported, the handle to sword was broken, but easily fixed. My kit was so well packed, the breakage must have occurred when it was shipped from the factory. Seamlines were quite prominent on the legs but bet elsewhere. The right leg had a gap where the thigh meets the top of the boot. These were probably two separate PVC pieces that were casted as one resin piece, but there must have been a gap when they made the mode. Most parts fit ok except for the upper torso and the breast cover. Score: C+
Overall score: B. As compare to many of my previous kits for e2046, a recast of a PVC just falls short of the quality of recasted resin kits. This might make me reconsider purchasing any future Antihero kits.

Overall a very nice kit, and in my opinion better done than the first Antihero offering Shouko. The casting is quite clean, and the mold points (where I'm noticing tabs) appear to be more sensibly located -- that is, mostly on areas that will be hidden. With only one caveat this is a very clean mold.
The only thing I can notice that appears wrong is the top portion of the left leg above her boots.. It looks like on the PVC it was two separate parts, but was resin molded as one. I'll post a picture later on, but on mine at least it seems like the upper part of the leg started to pull away from the boot. I can probably use filler to conceal this, but it's a bit annoying on an otherwise very nice cast.

Hi,
FG4223 Cocona arrived today ,
she was well packed but sadly the handle was broken off the sword Sad
it should be easy to pin/glue back on Smile
The resin/casting is very good , only very small seams ,
parts fit very well ect
the bra piece is slightly warped but it is very easy to bend and make it fit , so a bit of heat treatment will fix this ,
at 1st glance some parts have some very rough surfaces ,
but these rough surfaces are hidden when the kit is assembled so its not a problem ,(I think this is just because of the original PVC)
overall a very good PVC to resin conversion !
good work e2046
cheers senyac
