Why are the succubus's nipples so high up? I didn't know they had shitty boob jobs way back in the 1700's.
Hey guys, this is Infinity's End from your sister site, The Metroid Database. I joined this forum to tell you guys my story.I just recently purchased the Succubus figure off of Amazon for $15. As I'm sure many of you already have noticed, the Succubus has an "addition" to the top of her corset. Being familiar with how censorship works in this country, I'm sure the original sculptor was just trying to stay true to the artwork, but some big shot head had to come in and say no no no, cover 'em up. Even the artwork on the back, which features all 4 figures, shows her with a more revealing chest! (It was almost like they were trying to TELL us something) So, since I'm not a big collector or anything, I had no problems opening up the box. Her additional top is very obvious that it was a last-minute decision. So I pulled out my trusty ol' exacto knife and slowly pushed off the top part.... Wheee, I have nipples!Unfortunately as you can see, there were pieces of paint that came off when the piece popped off since it was glued on. (they obviously do not want you to remove it) I pulled out my flesh-tone paint and covered up the spots. Yeah it's not exactly the same tone, but whatever, I'm happy with it. You can barely tell unless you're looking up-close. And it certainly looks better than it did.Otherwise, I'm very happy with the figure. She's definitely sexy, and after "modding" the figure a tad, she's very close to the original source material! I can't say I like the 3 other figures as much as this one, which is why I only bought Succy. I hope you enjoyed my little story!(Don't forget folks, this is America, so anything that has to do with a nipple instantly means boobies, which instantly means sex, so you can't let any children see it! Because SEX, boobies, and nipples are OFF LIMITS until you're 18!!)
In Reply To #78I guess I still have time to figure out how to paint-fix mine - Big Bad Toy Store claims they haven't even gotten any CV figures in stock yet. /sob
Finished Product:
Yeah I like the black better, the magenta looked cheap but the paint you used creates a sort of sheen around the black areas. I don't know maybe it's just the lighting or the freshness of the paint.
In Reply To #61You might be disappointed, but you're likely in the minority.
I think Neca did well by not just repainting simon different colors for his variant, they're giving us Castlevania 1 Simon in this release and 2 in the next release, I would be majorly dissappointed if they just took the CV simon and painted him red and black or some other colors.Yeah never understood what was going through iga's head when he thought that looked cool, oldschool blond/brown haired simon all the way.
In Reply To #84It was not cheaply made it all. It had a different color than what you prefer. I think your version looks smudgy and no where near as good as the original paint job.
