[Alter] Estellise Sidos - Tales of VesperiaReviewPrev NextPrev Next

Hello there o/
First time reviewing here at MFC.

Criticism are always welcome.

Hope you like it!

I usually don't write a lot in my reviews, let the photos speak for themselves =D

Estellise Sidos Heurassein from the game Tales of Vesperia made by Alter
She was supposed to be release in September/2013 buuuut Alter is Later so she was release in Fev/2014.

The original artwork. They probably used this to base the figure. The shield and the rod are the same:

Here is the only complain I have: The base... You can notice that the base doesn't touch the ground, it's not plain. There's a huge gap. In the second photo you see the only part that actualy that seems right. It makes her be totally unstable. A minimum touch and she shakes, shakes and shakes.

But she worth a lot! Her painting job is superb. Alter Quality. Mine doesn't have any visible flaws.

Thank you for viewing!

I have this worry too. I'm always checking Rita ('cause she is older and one leg too) and she's still normal to me. But the pins on Estelle's feet is smaller than Rita's, so she probably would lean more easily.

CeruleanSky • 6 years ago • #2019799My base isn't quite as warped looking as yours appears. She still wobbles when I touch her, but in my case, it seems to be more related to the fact that she's balanced on one leg because my base isn't really all that wobbly. My biggest worry is that because she is only balancing on one leg, she will eventually start to lean.

So, I think the base issue is not an exclusivity of mine. It's so sad =[
She was delayed a few times and nevertheless she came with problems =/

Cyril • 6 years ago • #2019318The issues on my base aren't as dramatic as they are on yours. Yours is a bit worrying.
My main issue with her is that she's terribly wobbly.

oh I read it too. I still have to try it, and if won't work I'll have to email Alter =/
Thank for comment ^^~

shinhawk • 6 years ago • #2019032Some people said they use blow dyers to alleviate the problem. This is what happens when bases get all elaborate and why I prefer plastic discs for bases. Those just tend to have less problems.
Oh yeah, e-mail Alter about the base. Someone on the Estelle entry page here e-mailed Alter about the base defect and the company said they would send a replacement.
