  1. I received my Geralt Tourney statue in the mail today. Like the other figures it is high quality. The actual head sculpt is probably the most Geralt-like and the best, about as good as the Geralt Ursine statue. The physical dimensions are the most anatomically correct, I measured it and he's about 8 inch 3/4 or 9 inch. Also his head size and shape is larger and more accurate to the character. The armor is well shaped and impressive, and the pose is highly accurate (Igni) to the game. But definitely there are some small issues with it. The painting of the face is a bit off. It looks like Geralt not only has a tan, but a sunburn. The painted details on the face aren't as good as the other statues. This isn't game accurate. Also the aggressive posture is just not that ideal. Out of the 4 Geralt statues, it was the 'Hearts of Stone' figure and the 'Mandicore' statue that had really paint jobs on the face. This one is more flawed than Geralt Ursine. In comparison to the promotional photo, my Geralt was not as well painted. It is important for the figure to have strong contrasts. This Geralt's armor suit is way too dark/black and the Igni flash stands out too much. The checkboard purple undershirt is too dark and so are his pants. So all the fine details get lost in the black armor suit. Overall the paint job on Geralt's body is not up to the standards of Dandelion and the other figures. They could have used more contrast and glossiness on the armor. Another issue is the posture. It is simply not the best posture for a statue. From certain angles Geralt looks awkward, like he is ice skating. If they produced him in a classic standing pose I would love the figure a lot more. Since he is in action pose, his height falls to just 7 3/4th inches. Overall a decent statue with flaws. It is odd that Dark Horse's Witcher collection hit home runs with all their figures except for Geralt. There are small, easily correctable creative choices/flaws on all 4 statues that I have.

  2. Triss is written as a woman that is already really attracted- really loves and admires him in both the books and games- to Geralt so this makes everything a lot easier. He doesn't have to 'prove' anything to her, at least during the duration that we see them together. I have this statue of her right behind me BTW in my study I think a little submissiveness can be attractive. I have noticed that the Japanese take this to extremes...
  3. She looks really good here, partially due to the way the photos are edited
  4. She also does a little botox on her forehead. Maybe she just needs to eat meat? some more 7 yrs ago pictures
  5. Incredible boss /extremely creepy backstory behind it. The whole boss battle and the music is one of the best FROMSOFT ever, if you can stand spoilers.
  6. Is the odyessy worth reading? I have the audiobook. Do you like the 'submissive-cute' women that the Japanese people are obsessed with? They put one in the Re4 game. EllaFreya エラ・フレイヤ - YouTube
