The S.H.Figuarts Body Chan arrives in a new "wireframe" edition!
It's printed with wireframe lines that help artists better
capture the curves and three-dimensionality when drawing the
figure. It also features limiters in the joints that prevent
unnatural poses. Includes a minibook with tips and techniques for
artists, with drawings by Pokemon card illustrator Naoki Saito.
[Set Contents] Main Body, Four pairs of optional hands, Minibook.

Review: Expensive But Nice - This Body Chan is pretty neat to own
and is much better than the wooden artist figure! Not only this
is used for as an artist tool but also as a collector item for
anyone who enjoy buying Japanese figures (Play Arts Kai,
Revoltech, Figuarts, etc). Since this is NiB/CiB (I opened it),
the joints are tight in the sense that it's not loose. This is my
second S.F. Figuarts and so far they are durable to a point
(don'tdrop em or do anything that will damage them), no loose
limbs, and of quality. This Body Chan is the basic so there is no
base nor extra parts, so if you want a certain set like a school
ver. or sports ver., there is one of those. If you are iffy on
the price, try to shop around, locally or online, for a much
cheaper one. You can also buy an "off brand/fake" one but just be
careful. Gonna buy myself Body Kun later!
Review: Good Range if Motion, great soft feel, and legit Body
Chan - Okay, this is exactly what a pose-able doll should feel
like and do. Great range of motion, nice soft feel, no squeaking
and I got a legit product. How do I know it’s legit and not a
knock off? 1. It feels good. 2. It had the info marked on the
bottom of both feet 3. It’s not made in China 4. It’s made by
*Bandai Spirits See the images. I ordered this Body Chan and a
Body Kun. The Body Kun can only bend into a chair sitting
position and can’t do sit flat with one leg up (poorly made
joints with limited ROM) or anything beyond that. Body Chan can
hold her knees. Body Kun can’t touch his. My knockoff Body Kun
also can only turn his head and not tilt it where as Body Chan
can look up and down as well as side to side and tilt. If you
order a Body Kun or Body Chan, please look for the sticker,
company name, and other details. If they’re not there or are
different than what’s shown on Body Chan’s box, I’d likely return
it.
