Doujinshi Hoops The Playing G (Gundam) Kanda Yumeko figure













A rare piece of figurine from mid 2000s of a heroine from a doujinshi designed after Gundam. I was lucky enough to get it on Carousell. Seller is very kind to absorb postage fee and even courier the item within a few hours after payment made. The Playing G is a self-published manga with an appendix of the protagonist taking reference to Mobile Suit Gundam RX-78-2. 

I don't under Japanese but I certainly like how Kanda Yumeko figure is presented. Her hairband is tied up like Gundam's V-fin. Her school uniform takes the colour scheme of the first Gundam. she holds the ladle like the beam saber and the milk crate like a shield.

Yep, this figurine seems like something hard to come by and actually is a nice extrapolation of the Gundam Franchise... The reference to the series is very well achieved in the color scheme of the uniform for this girl, the detail for the face look a bit pale (you can notice it in the eyes particularly), but it gives a different feeling to the figure... It’s also good to read that the deal was successful and the seller was willing to help, it’s something you appreciate always!...

Understand that the quality of the figure is not exactly at its best but the in fact that the effort of producing it is worth commending.

Yeah! The seller is indeed very accommodating and it’s a whole great experience: )
