I guess I should post the thing in my avatar. It's my only figure but I like it, it sits next to me near my PC staring endlessly.
I was looking at Google images and in the first 10 or so she had her kit on and I thought that's not that bad then I scrolled some more...dirty old man
It's a shame Bandai were the only prize figure company that did anything with STR, unfortunately they are stuck making cheap ass prize figures despite the price allowance increasing, meanwhile Sega Taito and FuRyu have all increased to the point of some figures having even commercial qualityLatest lady with a weapon. Not a shooty or a pointy one. But a blunt one!

Definitely a cheaper model than most of the rest I have, due to her coming in 2 parts. The sledgehammer was quite difficult to get through her hair:

I find the best way to get instock figures for relatively affordable prices, except for rare ones, is just to go for pre-owned on AmiAmi. From my experience B rated is like new and B+ is essentially new condition on their quality ratings.Ugh, I'm still waiting for three pre-order figures to arrive, the wait time for these dang figures is incredibly long. The first figure I ordered back at the beginning of December 2021, and the release date keeps getting pushed out, now it's I think September of this year. If it gets delayed any further, it will closing in on the 2-year mark. This is getting almost as bad as the delays on Anime Limited Collector's Edition Blu-ray sets, lol! (j/k!) I really doubt I'll be pre-ordering any more figures, I'd rather look for ones available in-stock somewhere.
