High School of the Dead: 1/8 Saeko Busujima Scale Figure

I don't watch a whole lot of anime, but when I do, its something that I really dig and my taste for figures began 2 weeks ago. I was looking around our local hobby shop and saw a whole lot of female Jap Anime figures. When I went home, the first thing I did was Google 'em and boy oh boy, I told myself, "Now my wallet would bleed harder"...


High School of the Dead began as a Manga back in 2006 then later released as an Anime in 2010. Zombie-movie junkies like me became addicted to it easily. The story wasn't derived from your run-off-the-mill zombie flick, it depicts emotional and psychological challenges the students had to face due to the Zombie infestation. I would strongly recommend that you watch it online or download it, its an awesome anime.


As for the figure, I saw this while relentlessly researching the net. Some of the figure terminologies I've learned from the past weeks are:


NSFW - not safe for work, these are figures which shows the private parts of the human anatomy
MISB - mint in sealed box, in the world of figure collecting, a person who wants to sell his figure roughly around the same price he purchased it must make sure the box was not opened
MIB - mint in box, box opened but never displayed in a cabinet


You may mistake Saeko for Psylocke from Marvel because of the violet hair and oriental features. As a Captain of the Kendo Club, her skills with the Bokken (wooden sword for Kendo) and later on, a Katana is exceptional.


This figure is classified as NSFW because of the cast-off feature. A feature in the figure industry where you can remove the figure's clothes. I would suggest you view the photos in private.


No thanks to my new addiction, i'm thinking hard if I need a mid-range SLR Camera to bring out the best in my figure collection. Sigh haha!
