Zimm's Two Cents
Do I really have to? Can't I just skip this one? I'll admit it. I'm not a fan of the Bishoujo line, but then again, I'm not a teenager.

Points in Favor
  • Great colors.
  • Love the flow. Hair, belt and flames - all are part of the same flow.
  • Got to love the price too. You can find it on sale for $49.99. Click here.
  • Beyond the costume, there are little differences in the pieces. My niece would point out the eyes.
  • At first, I wasn't thrilled with the pose, but after thinking about it, it reminded me of clubbing and someone dancing. (Or is that the insufferable music that Jamie is playing the background.) Either/or - I like it.
Points Against
  • In-plants....again.
Recommendation: Neutral. While this one is just not for me, it still looks like a cute piece. If I had to get one, I would recommend Dark Phoenix. click here.
