Somewhere early this month, I’ve actually obtained Megahouse Queen’s Blade Allean, but I decided to postpone the review. Normally I would just go for my standard mini studio shot, but this time around I wanted to try something different. The reason ? I wanted my background to be in a forest with trees, because the character is an elf, and normally you’ll find elf inside ancient forest. So, I had to find the suitable time to go to a forest near by and snap the shots.

Anyway, let’s check out Queen’s Blade Allean ! As per title says, she’s NSFW viewing, so be warned.

Alleyne/Allean, ( I’m not really sure which is the correct spelling ) is a character from Queen’s Blade, a series of visual combat books published by Hobby Japan. The series has become popular now that it has spawned through many forms of merchandise, like anime, manga and figurines. This character Allean is a combat instructor who happens to be an elf. Lived for more than 1000 of years, she’s one of the most seasoned veteran warriors of a tribe of forest elves.

I never watched Queen’s Blade before, only seen screenshots of it. I don’t think I will be watching this series due to the ridiculous amount of unrealistic ecchi and fanservice shots. I did try to watch Ikkitousen before, but I couldn’t stand the fact every 10 seconds there’s a panty / boobs shot, so I don’t think I’ll watch Queen’s Blade anytime soon. Screenshots would be fine for me at the moment. However, I like Allean character design. She’s looks proud and prideful warrior, but damn she sure has a find body and pretty face. That’s the reason why I buy her although I never really watched Queen’s Blade before.

This is my first Megahouse figure, and I must I’m very statisfied. I’m actually glad that I choose this over Griffon’s version. I choose mainly because of the pose and the quality paint. Even from the prototype photos, Megahouse version looks as the obvious winner. Every part of her is very detailed, top to bottom ( even her leaf panties, which you’ll see in the castoff pictures later ). Her hair on the left side looks a bit rough, but nothing major. Oh, her skirts seems VERY EASY to remove. A simple pull could already pull it off.

My only gripe with this figure is the damn base. Dammit, she’s a pretty figure, but totally ruined with the ugly base. No, I don’t care even if you put the Queen’s Blade logo on it, its transparent and I can hardly see it. You could have given us a base with land and trees surrounding it, but no, a transparent plastic base. Sigh, I wonder if my cry for awesome base will ever reach the companies ?

You can remove almost…every of her clothing, except for her stockings and her sleeves. So yeah, her she is without the hat and then mantel. I must say she’s looks more…seductive, for a combat instructor.

Now here she is…with full ‘castoff’ mode. For a combat instructor, she surely have a body of a goddess.

Just look at how detailed her body parts are, from her leaf panties ( FTW ! Environment friendly ! ), her butt, to her boobs. Extremely detailed and sculpted beautifully.

Aside from the base, this figure is pretty much an excellent work from Megahouse. The pose, paint job, sculpting all is prefect. Oh, forgot to mention, her head is a bit hard to pull out, so you might gonna have to use some extra force when pulling it, so be careful. Another than that, if you like elf’s, SEXY ones, then go ahead and grab Megahouse’s version for superior sculpting and detail.

Trivia :

A little bit of info of the location of the photo shot.

Quote from Virtual Malaysia :

One of the most spectacular waterfalls in Selangor, Sungai Gabai Waterfalls consist several falls cascading from an impressive height of 100 meters to a series of pool at the foot of the falls.

Actually there are few other local forest in Malaysia, but this was the nearest to Malacca. It’s a beautiful and peaceful place, and simple suitable for the phototshot. I wished I could have snap more nicer photos, if it weren’t for the local people who decided to have a picnic there…Perhaps next time.

  1. Heh, sorry it took a while.

  2. kiddokun, I just got this figure myself… nice photos!

    I want to ask how should I go about detaching her head, maybe you can show me an image of what it looks like when its seperated from the rest of the body?

    Right now I’m even too scared to attempt removing the plastic wrapping around her body and neck!

    Thanks.

  3. Okay I finally figured it out.

    I managed to remove her head by kind holding her hair with my right thumb and index finger and wiggling it a bit, motioning it upwards.

    Again, thanks for the images, they look great and helped me out in some ways. This seems to be the only review of the figure I could find at this time. ^^

    @ JustPeter : Heyas man ! Welcome aboard. Glad you like the photos.

    Yeah, you have actually have to pull her head off in order to remove those plastics. It applies for most castoff figures.

    Actually, there are a few japanese websites that have already posted their review for this figure, but for english ones I think not many posted this, wonder why.
