She's wonderful! Princess Tutu is, by far, my favourite anime. I love your comments about the photos, they're hilarious. I have a hard time convincing my friends to look into it...because of the ballet thing I guess. (Princess Tutu does have a nice ass. 0.o ) Oh! She’s wonderful!

The delicate parts were just stuffed into little clear bags. Even so, the box was stuffed with Styrofoam and covered in bubble wrap yet parts still broke off. Maybe it's just the resin that's delicate? @Nyx: Oh snap, pre-orders are up. Hmmm, I think I'll wait for prototype photos before I have to make a decision. $300 is a lot of money - I could make two cosplays or buy a Wii with that. And I just bought Tutu, so . . . BUT IT'S SO AWESOME UGHHHHH @Coco the Bean: The bracelets are clear plastic tinted yellow beads glued around her wrist. I do like them, but in the anime they're gold like her crown so it wasn't entirely necessary to make them glass-like. @Dancing Queen: I agree with the packaging issue.

Love how she is so gracefully posed. What is her bracelet made out of by the way? She is an absolutely gorgeous figure! Love how she is so gracefully posed.

I was hoping for $250 but $300 isn't too bad. I'm most likely going to have to cancel everything for a few months though to afford both Lelouch and TTGL. Price just went up for TTGL.

I bought the Bunny Haruhi from them and it arrived headless and scratched up. :( and once i sent it back and got a new one, it arrived headless as well. While she does looks amazing they really could have done a better job on the necklace and her tulle tutu.

I also wanted Lelouch (especially since he comes with different heads!) but I'd rather save my $$$ and get TTGL. I know it's going to be expensive, and sadly I would be willing to pay a few hundred for it and not buy another figure for like a year. Because having that thing on my desk would inspire me for the rest of my life, it's just so epic! Princess Tutu is so good, I’m so glad I could get something that pays homage to it.

She's absolutely wonderful! Princess Tutu is one of my favorite animes. I'm also a little disappointed with the necklace detail and the bottom layer of her dress, which is supposed to be more of a pink opaque color, but overall I definitely think E2046 did an awesome job. My main concern was if the eyes and expression would be close to the original and it's spot on! Tutu is my second figure (after Gwendolyn) and I'm also planning on getting Lelouch and TTGL. Oh also they actually put a $430 price tag on Gathering TTGL, but after posting a rather heated inquiry as to why the price was so high (in the E2046 forums under Questions & Answers), one of the staff responded and said I made a good point and he'd talk to the work shop and it went back to Coming Soon! Here's hoping the price is below $300! I also bought Gathering’s Tutu. She’s absolutely wonderful! Princess Tutu is one of my favorite animes.

However, I saw reviews and photos of their Gathering line and it's really top notch quality. They're based in Hong Kong and all commercial figures are manufactured in China anyway, so it probably wasn't a big jump to market product lines from garage kits. I can't believe she sold out so quickly; when I first wrote this post they still had 2 left. If there's enough demand they could do another release, you just have to poke them enough.
