Figma 019 - 鏡音リン

This will be the shortest of the three Figure posts I've done this week. 




The box isn't really anything special. It's more or less the same as the Miku's box. I said in Shana's Figma post that most, if not all, boxes had a picture of the Figma inside, as well as outside. Well, Miku and Rin (and Ren) don't. The inside of their boxes is shiny and a metallic coating.

One gripe I have with Rin's figma form is that she's made with shiny plastic, as opposed to Miku's matte plastic. 

The shiny plastic makes her look kind of cheap. None of my current Figma has the shiny plastic. 

Another thing that makes Rin stand out from the rest of my Figma collection is that she doesn't wear a skirt. Excluding Yoshika since she's only got a top anyways. Rin's shorts give her a tad bit more mobility and pose...ability compared to her skirt clad comrades. 

She doesn't come with many accessories however. She has the standard rack of hands, an additional face, and a microphone. It was difficult coming up with poses when you don't have many props / accessories to work with. Another thing that made it difficult was that Rin (as a Vocaloid character, rather than an anime or game character) doesn't actually have any trade mark gestures or poses.

A shot displaying her posability (not a word). Mic stand is from Miku.

I'm missing Rin's other half, Ren (Len). They haven't made any other Vocaloid Figma as of yet, so with Ren, I'd have the complete set. Ren doesn't come with anymore accessories than Rin does however. He comes with a keytar...and the usual things. He would be my first male figure though.
