The Mysterious Bounty Hunter

Finally got the chance to do a photoshoot for my latest figure, it has been a long while since my last figure review xD.

Alter version of Yoko is vastly different from the rest of the Yoko out there, since she’s from an alternate universe and only appear for a brief moment in episode 26. Probably the only similarity with the rest of the Yoko is the sniper rifle she’s carrying. I really like this version of Yoko, cause she’s so damn cool looking ^^

Yoko comes with a nice rock like base and a removable pistol. Sadly the sniper rifle is not removable, though it would have been nice if it was.

Detail, sculpt and paint job is top notch. Every crease line, holes on the jacket looks great. The belt itself is also nicely detailed.

The sculptor really did a great job in putting in all the details to this Yoko figure.

    Awesome shoot.
    Because of her badass look and Alter touch, many ppl chose her over the Koto one.
    Still, I’m happy with my Koto one as u already know. :)

  6. Q says:

    “yeah the same bullets again” hehe at least they fit well with Yoko’s sniper rifle here~

    Love the details, and it’s good to see that she can stand by herself without the base!

  7. valiantho says:

    Actually she can’t stand by herself, I think the sniper rifle is a bit heavy. I out some blue tack below her foot to keep her from falling ^^

    Very good review! Yoko is so beautiful. Alter did an excellent work.

    thanks Lylibellule ^^

    You are master with light. I love that close-up of her face, and the way the light and shadows play on her. Nobody rendered her beautiful sharp
    features like that before. That and the wonderful clearness of those picks makes it the best photo session of her I’ve seen to date. Others didn’t have any of this flare. And I’ve seen alot of them, that’s how I sugar my anticipation for this gorgeous, worthy companion of my badass Kamina. I wonder if DancingQueen can top that…

    @Jamble~thanks for the comment, I like to play around with lightning sometimes, just to see how the photos will turn out ^^. Yeah she’s definitely goes well together with Kamina
