The latest addition to the “Bunny Suit Planning” series, and truly a piece that “steals your gaze.” Sophia F. Shirring appears this time in a high-leg swimsuit. Do not dismiss this figure as merely sexy. Standing at an impressive 27cm, it is packed with delicate yet bold sculpting, fitting the description of “visually overwhelming.” With Takamaki Busujima (Busujimax) as the sculptor, Getsuryu as the colorist, and the reliable AMAKUNI handling production, this lineup of names alone guarantees a high level of perfection.

What catches the eye most in this figure is the high-leg swimsuit newly designed by Nadare Takamine just for this piece. This design is simply exquisite. Maintaining sporty and stylish elements, the bold cutlines that naturally draw the eye toward the lower abdomen never cease to tickle the viewer's imagination. In particular, the realistic indentation of the groin line and the aggressive sculpting of the “overflowing” volume of the chest are breathtaking. The contrast between the softness of the skin and the sharpness of the outfit reaches the realm of “sculptural art,” transcending the boundaries of a mere figure.

What makes this figure special is the realism of the fleshiness and the expressive power of the textures. For example, Sophia's hip line is not just rounded but is a precise sculpt that conveys even the tension of the muscles, with her expression changing depending on the viewing angle. Furthermore, the metallic-style parts on the swimsuit are reproduced with a solid metallic paint, creating a realistic luster as if real metal were adorned. These detailed touches repeatedly pull back the viewer's gaze, creating a sense of satisfaction that makes you want to look at it again and again.

This 1/6 scale size offers an exquisite balance; it is not too overbearing when displayed, yet it certainly becomes the protagonist of the space. In particular, Sophia's dynamic posing and the slim lines of her outfit will undoubtedly serve as an accent that catches the eye wherever it's placed. By trying different lighting or displaying it alongside other series, the joy of collecting expands infinitely. In other words, it is a presence worthy of being the “star of a small art museum” in your room.

This “High-leg Swimsuit Ver.” holds great value as it is a completely new design by Nadare Takamine, not just a mass-produced outfit found anywhere. Because of this, you can obtain a “one-of-a-kind Sophia” that stands apart from other figures. Her appearance, which is sensuous yet possesses a certain elegance, will likely be loved for a long time as a work that transcends mere three-dimensional objects. It is a masterpiece that I highly recommend to figure fans and those who wish to enjoy sculpting from an artistic approach.
