Have I mentioned 40 times today that I am SOOO into Shiozaki Yuji's work? They are seriously my favorite reads. Well, a very popular pose of Kan-u is headed for PVC for by way of Wani Books. She's all white and packing her crescent blade. Just like daddy like. I think the cast looks pretty good, but I would recommend that you give heavy consideration to the e2046 Gathering resin prepaint[NSFW]. That shit is high quality. I mean it. And they added a removable top. Great job on the body too. Still, the PVC looks nice as well. e2046 lists theirs as 1/6 and the PVC is listed as 1/7 scale (240mm), so who knows which it is. PVC could have been recast smaller. The PVC will run you 6,000 yen in July, and you can grab the resin kit from e2046 on June 6th for US$128.25.
Pictures of the white PVC only after the jump. Four of them.

There's suppose to be a black version as well right? Or am I thinking of the actual kit and not PVC version?

If there is a black one, I haven't seen it yet. Amiami doesn't have it up either. So I am assuming it will either be coming later, or NEVER! The original kit looks almost exactly like the e2046 version, minus the removable top.
I will post the black one as soon as there is word. I just wish the weapon looked better. That is one of the large reasons I am kicking in the extra for the resin prepaint.

nm I take what I said back. After looking at e2046, I realized that's the version I was thinking about. Oops.

Finally, a Kanu worth buying! All the others were either bad or too slutty. PVC for me.

Yep this one's worth buying alright!Makes me glad that i cancelled the order for the wet uniform one by Griffon ^^
PVC for me too as i prefer the face on the PVC on the shots that are available for it.

Yes! Kan-u is surely wonderful. What makes me sad though is that there are SO MANY girls in that should worth making, but I think the only ones I've ever seen were Kan-u, Ryomou, Hakufu, and Ryofu.
I have to say, I do dig the PVC. But I enjoy the green eyes and darker hair on the resin. Also, I figure it's high time I had a figure with removable clothes. :D

2046 often list their "normal" sized kit as 1/6. Anyway I got one of the Kanu and it is going to be BLACK!
