I really wonder Toy's Planning and exhaust belong to the same company, nonetheless I was thick enough to acquire another of their Pia Carrot figurine set from the H-game merchandise extraordinaire to follow up to the first set from before. I bought this set in Nipponbashi, in Osaka during my recent Japan trip. |

高井 さやかThe lead character of the series, Sayaka dressed in one of the many uniforms of the Pia Carrot restaurant which we have seen Tomomi has worn in the previous set. I should have just bought a loose Sayaka from the store instead of getting the entire set as this piece is my favorite piece. I really like her pose on the office chair , which is pretty alluring. The facial sculpt is not that fantastic but the way the hair flows is commendable. However even this piece has a painstaking sculpting problem when parts tend to fall apart easily including the head, the tailpiece of her uniform and even the parts of the chair, which prompts me to rectify using adhesive.

愛沢 ともみTomomi this time round virtually swapped the uniform with Sayaka from the previous set. In this European influenced uniform, the youthful Tomomi welcomes all guests of the restaurant. The facial sculpt is still acceptable but my Tomomi is badly twisted by the waist much like a contortionist from a circus went wrong. The amazing part is that this piece is not the worst of this set, which can only means the worst piece has to be really horrendous looking.

天野 織江Orie is wearing that nice tropical style uniform which Akemi has worn in the previous set and it still amazes me what's the point of the cuffs on this short sleeve uniform and wouldn't it slides backwards when in such case when Orie adopts such a pose. She has a mole around the mouth area or was it just cosmetic error. Once again I was captivated by the paintjob of the wrapped-around skirt which in this case comes in 2 parts that tend to fall apart rather easily.

木ノ下 貴子Sorry for the sudden reaction towards this name which sounds like one of my all time dream girls; anyway I believe Takako is related to the main character of the original game, Kinoshita Yusuke somehow. I remember some of the popular figurines company made Takako an ultra-sexy vixen with appealing light violet hair color. However this piece made her look like an ordinary housewife in apron with blue hair instead. Nonetheless together with Sayaka, one of the better piece in this set as I like the pose with her way to hold the authentic-looking broom.

岩倉 夏姫When I mentioned that Tomomi is not the worst piece in this set, I had to reserve that accolade for this awful Natsuki piece with her lying to sunbath. Firstly the sculpt is terrible as her head can never peg properly onto the neck. The connection line on the hair is so visible as a fissure and the face is terribly done. The tone of her skin is inconsistent and looks more like sun burnt at certain areas. The shades is also tastelessly done.

2 & a half stars for a set awfully spoiled by the presence of Natsuki and the manufacturers still got the cheek to ask for 400¥ for such quality as I might be the only idiot to get this set. |
