It's not that bad, in my opinion. Would I of used that expression? Nah. Does it feature her likeness? I think so.   It's really bad. Comparing Riho to Brandi, Brandi looked hell of a lot better. I don't see Riho (the figure) in that comparison at all. The only thing you can really compare is the smile. The smile is the only thing throwing me off! That and the skin tone, I think the eyes and nose are passable. To each their own  |

If Riho was in the same skin tone as the first series, I’d be happy about it. |

I just don't hate it to bits. Hopefully the skin tone isn't that jarring in hand. |

Here's an in hand photo to give you an idea on what to expect with the skin tones.  |

Looks a lot more promising here but still quite tan compared to the reference picture I provided earlier. I'll take tan over orange/peach any day, though! |

I hate to say it, but let's be honest -- the body sculpt is good, but the head really looks like a guy wearing a wig...

Have we gotten an answer yet to why the full sets were listed as pre-order 3? Nothing yet. Curious myself as well, was confusing to me. Since it was listed as Pre-Order 3, are they actually coming earlier than Late-January? Like the singles were listed as Early-January. I'm a patient person, but just nice to know. |

Too bad the Riho figures weren't reversed. The smiling scan looks like an elf or something that should be in a sci-fi movie like Labyrinth, The Hobbit or Lord of the Rings.

I like how anyone who's expressed being okay with the Riho figure is being met not with vitriol, but with this weird retort of "ok, but let's be honest, it's bad".
"I mean, I don't think it's that bad..."
"Right, okay, but it's bad, right?"

NGL, I think it looks like RIHO. Its cartoony but very good imo, better than the rest of the face scans for series 3.

I don't think they will be too much later though. |

I only bought the whole set cause when I tried to just order Darby, PAC, Orange and Riho, Darby was said to be sold out, so I went with the whole series just to get Darby
