Figure review time! Today, we are going to take a look at Max Factory’s figure rendition of Kagamine Rin from the very popular singing synthesizer Vocaloid. It was based on the illustration of Nagisimo who also did the Miku VN02 Mix (which I haven’t reviewed yet). The figure is not that incredible when compared to Miku VN02 mix. Actually, the figure is only 210mm tall because of its fancy base. When you remove the base, it’s only 170mm which makes it really small. Max Factory didn’t even bother to add the guitar strings (which is a normal thing to do on figures with string type instruments).

Aside from this figure negatives, It’s still a pretty solid and magnificent figure. Really loving its shocking yellow x gold color scheme. And yeah, this figure is nothing without its “reactor” like base.

Overall figure is pretty solid with well sculpted elements and a freakin cool Rin!

I’m not sure why it’s called “Nuclear Fusion” version. Maybe because of the base? The base feels nuclear-ish for me.

High contrasting colors makes this figure popup in your collection. The combination of black, white, yellow and gold makes this figure an eye catcher.

Despite some of its strong points, It has a few weak points as well.

One of them is Rin is really small. Combined with the base, she stands around 210mm. Remove the base and she’s only 170mm. A really small figure in my opinion. :/

Another one is some of the figure elements lacks the details we expect. One of them is the guitar strings which is a pretty common detail added to figures with string type instruments.

Aside from those comments mentioned above, figure is really sculpted well. It’s Max Factory.

No need to question the paint job if it’s Max Factory.

Really love her gold painted guitar and its details. If only they included the string. T_T

Rin’s expression in this figure is pretty damn serious. Not your typical Rin figure here.

The very fancy base which really adds to the overall impact of the figure.

Base is well detailed and a spot on duplicate of the illustration.

One of the figure’s strong points is its base. It has some really well sculpted props. And yeah, who doesn’t love wires as details?

A flexible wire is connected to the figure’s headphone’s up to the base.

One final shot to close the review.

Overall, despite a few negative comments on my end, this figure is still incredible. It really brings Nagisimo’s illustration to life. With its striking color scheme combined with its fancy base and a freakin cool ass kickin rendition of Rin, this figure is really a must have for figure collectors out there who is a fan of Vocaloids (specially if you already own Miku VN02 mix. They look stunning together!).

See you on our next figure review!
