Still does, for the most part! That might change after the wedding, but probably not radically, most of the time. :)

I pictured her with her arms folded across her chest, but the stance is definitely right.

It took Gryphon ages to do his little hat.

Ha, that works! The reference to Corduroy was really just a wink to the materials involved, anyway; the bear isn't meant to look like the one in the book. Swap in a few more obviously improvised bits (the eyes and nose, for instance, are presumably not bespoke stuffed-bear parts), and you're there. I thought about mentioning that he's wearing wire pince-nez (as TR was wont to do), but decided that would reduce huggability to an unacceptable degree.

Heh, and now I'm picturing Remi's bemusement as she tries to figure out what the bit he's working on is without interrupting him by asking. :)

I highly recommend Jellycat (the original manufacturers) as purveyors of friends. They have a huge variety of friends both conventional and not - one of my personal favourites is their adorable Stanley Slug, whose tagline on the store is, and I swear I'm not making this up,

"The slug life chose him".

You can't get better than that, can you. =]

Not too terrible as these things go. Slightly more than the toy itself actually cost, but given that it's quite reasonably priced to begin with, I'll take it. I've seen a lot worse.

Ha! Yeah, that's pretty good. :)

In my defense, I haven't slept properly in several days and things are getting a little wibbly around the edges *anyway*, but when I read that I parsed it as UF-Gryphon accidentally knocked Remi off the table (why was she on the table? I dunno!), sending her hat skittering across the floor, and the resulting indignant look from Remi, the apologetic "oops"-face from Gryphon, and the snarkery from the Flandre & Co. Peanut Gallery sprang into my mind in full HD resolution.

I'll be giggling for a while now, thanks.

She looks like she just figured out either the Force choke or Sith lightning, and she can't wait to share her discovery with some deserving individual.

Did you get the full priced version, or one of the bargain knock-offs? Picture looks like the pricey one, but hey maybe it's a really good knock-off.

I think that's from whatever game all the fancy alternate outfits all stem from. Who knows why they decided to cross her with some 'Be not afraid' style of angel.

She's a vampire, any sort of Goth styling is pretty much her native garb.

I believe it's genuine, although I did get a fairly decent deal on it.

Well, yeah, I know it's part of her Legend of Scarlet Devil Mansion design, but like you say, who knows why they did that? Probably just reckoned it looked more badass. Same reason that version of Sakuya is dressed like a blackjack dealer. :)

(As an aside, the Engrish text on the box identifies the figure as the Legend of Scarlet Devil Castle Version, which has a ring to it, even if it is just a mistranslation. :)

True.

Fortunately for what remains of my wallet, I at least couldn't find one of the black-dress version of this figure. Not just "for a price I was willing to pay," at all. I guess they were a very limited edition. (Never seen one of the red ones for sale, either, just that one picture from when they were announced.)
