Char Rousemann ~ シャル
The third Shuraki Trinity figure, Char Rhousemann, is probably the one that I was most looking forward to between all the other figures in the series. I just love the design and looks of this figures, not to mention that beside MeiFeng, she’s the only other really moe~ figure in the series that are release as figures.
She was suppose to be release in December last year but was delay and release in end of January instead. The one that I got was actually from my The Figure Mall, because my shipment from Hobby Search couldn’t arrive in time for MAGe Festa, so I got the one my friend have in-stock and pass mine to him when she arrived, just so that I can have her on display at MAGe XD.
As with the rest of the figures from the series, Char comes with drama CDs, an illustrated booklet and extra clothing for battle damage look. Fortunately her battle damage clothing is less complicated and easier to remove than Mishiro and MeiFeng. Her based are cracked pavement/bricks and she’s attached to it with pegs on both foot.
The detail on her clothing are great, from the detail on the arms’ armor, the frills on her skirt, the golden trim, it all looks great.
Her armor comes with a nice shiny gold trim and the white is sort of like metallic pearl.
I just love those twirls of her hair.
The base itself is nicely detailed.
Her battle damage dress are made of only two piece and is very easy to assemble and take a part. After the one with MeiFeng I am really glad is much simpler for Char. Was thinking of some sort of garden for the diorama shots, but as usual the lack of materials force me to improvise, so the bricks are back in action again.
Her weapon is a rapier, so her fighting style is most probably fencing.
I have now three of the characters from the series, another 2 more to go and I’ll have the complete set, this is if GSC doesn’t decide to release some of the other characters that can be seen in the booklet. Strangely no reissue for her has been announce yet, while for Mishiro and MeiFeng, both were announce right after they were release. This will makes her even harder to get than the other figures in the series.

That picture of her twirling hair… oh my… it is just fantastic!
Love the one with the guard of the sword in first scene ^^
Char is such a wonderful character, and makes a perfect figure. Can’t wait to see her in action, so I hope a real anime will be produced!
I’ll wait until Rize released to make my ranking, but I guess Char will be first, then Rize in second place.
I see you’re also in love with Char XD
She is indeed a nice figure, but you said her dress is easier to take off/on than Mei~!?? Oh god, I have enough troubles with Char already @_@;
Definitely one of the best figures out there but to expensive for my thin wallet
bricks, nice one on the improvising! still having trouble with putting the battle damage dress on. D:
I loved Char Rhousemann’s hair, i’m always hypnotized for her hair… And is perfect the last photo with the three Shuraki together.
^_^
Lovely photos, but where do you get the purple background paper from? I’m usually hard pressed to find some decent background papers.
nice purple background, abit reflective but great on the zoomed photos
I think shuraki 05 is also moe
@lu-k~yeah I just love that twirling hair of hers. I think an anime of the Shuraki series should be quite interesting, quite interested to know the background of these characters ^^
@Aya~Yeah she’s my fav ^^, off all the three MeiFeng clothes is the hardest to take off/put on, after doing it twice I am lazy to do it anymore XD
@Belela-san~Yeah they are quite pricey for a 1/8 but the detail is just amazing
@rain~haha the bricks are really quite useful. It’s not that hard to put on the dress, much more easier than MeiFeng
@Persefone~Yeah her hair is really nice, thanks ^^
@Adun~Got the background from a gift shop near my office, i think it’s use to wrap flowers rather than presents
@ron~yeah it’s a bit reflective on zoom out shots, but close-up is nice ^^. Hmmm 05 is actually my least favourite, lets see how the final product looks like
I love that group shot.
oh man i’m gonna have to make an order if quickly if they re-release char… they all look so great together!
@super rats~thanks ^^, will be more difficult to take group shot when the other two are release
@Dancing Queen~yeah, hopefully they will re-release her
Great Job! … love that last group shot.
@JB~thanks
WOW. her hair and her EYES really steals the show! prefer the cast off version though… the “dress” doesn’t look natural…
