Afternoon Everyone.
Well, I have never done a review of a figure before, and it is kind of hard to do when you do not actually have the figure on hand to do a through evaluation but, I feel that a review can still be done as long as you have a solid understanding of who has actually manufactured the figure, who the sculptor is, and of course the actual subject, in this case the character that the figure is based on, and of course if it is from a particular series.
So to start things off with a band, I decided to choose a figure release fromYamato USA, a company that continues to release some excellent anime figures, and the particular figure that I am reviewing today is from the series Dark Stalkers 2.
Vampire Savior : Lilith Aenslad 1/6 Scale Resin Statue

Below is a description of the figure…
Don’t let this lounging vixen fool you, she’s ready for a fight at anytime; but, like any good predator, first she must lure her foe.
Yamato is proud to continue its tribute to the seductive leading ladies of Capcom with one of two full resin statues featuring the succulent succubi from
Capcom’s
Part of Yamato’s Capcom Girls Collection, this 1/6 resin statue of
Lilith Aenslad
provides a uniquely distinctive interpretation of the classic Capcom character as only master sculptor
Mitsumasa Yoshizawa
could envision.
Available early 2010, Morrigan comes complete with feather boa and display base.
Okay, Yamato USA has been releasing some of the best figures based on Video Games and other anime and manga for several years now, and in this case I think that they have outdone themselves here.
The coloring and just the design aspects of this statue seem to just draw us into the character, as Morrigan strikes a sexy pose , even thou she is not trying to, and her face seems to me to reflect a bit of whimsy if you will.
There is a little bit of history to Lilith…
”
Lilith
Lilith (???, Ririsu?)
- Country of Origin: Sealed Realm
- Type: Succubus
- Birth Year: Unknown
- Height: 168 cm
- Weight: 54 kg (B74-W56-H83 cm)
Belial, the ruler of all Makai, and Morrigan’s adoptive father foresaw that Makai would be exposed to the crisis of perishing soon. Someone with great power would be needed to maintain the unbalanced world of Makai. Using his near omnipotent foresight, he predicted that one with such a power would not be born in the family of Aensland for another 1,200 years. Knowing this, he personally selected Morrigan as his immediate heir.
Morrigan was a very special Succubus; she was born as an “S class” noble. But at that time, a struggle for power had already started between the noble houses. Numerous battles had occurred in various locations. It was unacceptable for a Succubus child to be given such rights to power. To complicate matters further, Morrigan had no way to control the enormous powers that she held within herself. If she were to be left unguided, she would destroy herself and the land around her. Thus, Belial decided to split her powers and isolate them in order to protect her. Morrigan’s soul was split into two, and one of the halves was isolated in a negative space that Belial had specifically created.
However, her powers could not simply be split 50/50. Because her powers were forcefully divided, they kept drawing towards each other. To counter this effect, Belial took part of her powers and sealed it within himself. Morrigan’s soul had been divided into three; one in Morrigan, one in the sealed space and one in Belial’s body. When these become one, Morrigan can regain her full powers.
When Belial died, the sealed-off power was supposed to return to its rightful owner. Once this was complete, the next ruler of Makai was supposed to be born, as Belial foresaw it. But because the part which Belial contained had been lost, Morrigan’s power had not returned to 100%. Also, a certain “accident” had occurred in the sealed space that even Belial himself did not notice; the sealed-off power had begun to have its own will. Lilith had begun to recognize herself roughly a decade after the sealing process. As Lilith found out about Makai, her feelings grew. These feelings were different from normal emotions like admiration and jealousy, they were closer to a primitive instinct to return home.
In Darkstalkers 3: Vampire Savior, the demon Jedah releases Lilith and gives her a body—that of a smaller, more cheerful succubus. In return, Lilith was to lure Morrigan and the other Darkstalkers to him. Lilith seems to enjoy her life until she realizes that she is not the “original”—she is only a part of another person. She discovers that she often becomes transparent and realizes she has limited time to find her “soul mate”, in order to continue her existence. Morrigan also feels that Lilith is a part of her, but she does not feel she needs Lilith as badly as Lilith needs her. Jedah realizes this, and he manipulates Lilith to meet Morrigan so he can use them both to extend his power. However, Lilith knows that Jedah is lying to her. Lilith is only absorbed by Morrigan in Morrigan’s ending, leaving Morrigan, like Lilith, with a more cheerful personality and a new view on the world. In Lilith’s ending, she fails to reach Morrigan’s unconscious body in time and appears to fade from existence seconds before Morrigan wakes up, though Morrigan again seems to feel something has changed within her.
It is reported that the game designers had originally intended for Lilith to be a half-angel sister to Morrigan, but that the idea was dropped in favor of the current character design.
Lilith also made a cameo appeareance in Pocket Fighter at the end of Morrigan’s story. ”
This statue is up for sale right now at L&K’s Anime Otaku Heaven, and you can place your order for the Lilith here.

Evening Everyone!
I have something very exciting to share with you…
I thought that it was finally time to offer a newsletter for this blog and my other blog site, Lew Newmark: My Domestic Life, but your probably thinking as you read this post ” why did it take Lew so long to do a newsletter for this blog? ”
Well, the basic answer is…a lack of time over the past few years to actually devote to doing one, but now due to certain circumstances, I finally have the time to do one.
So what will this newsletter be about anyway?
This newsletter will be a basic synopsis of what I’ve written over the month, some of the best stuff, along with some announcements that I might want to have exclusive just for the newsletter…especially concerning anime figure releases.
and the best part is that it is free!
That’s right a free newsletter, with more great content from yours truly.
I’m hoping to have a sign up page or some sort of link available by this Sunday so look for that coming up.

The Queen’s Blade line of female figures is awe inspiring to say the least and I wanted to kind of just do a update that would just show some of the latest figures from several different manufacturers…

Here is a unique figure in this line as it is a Revoltech action figure from manufacturer Kaiyodo, who is closely associated with the ” Bome ” line of action figures. This figure is due out in June and will sell for $39.99, which for a Revoltech action figure is a great price.
Queen’s Blade: Menace
I don’t have a lot of information on this particular figure, but Menace is not too hard on the eyes is she. Being released by Amiami, who I am not at all familiar with is selling this piece for $119.99 retail.
Queen’s Blade: Cattleya Weapon Merchant Violet Blue Ver
Here is a figure that I featured here a while ago, and now Cattleya is being offered again in a different color version from Griffon. This version is also going to retail for $139.99 and is due to be released on June 30th, 2010.
About a year ago manufacturer Orchid Seed released the Witchblade: Masane Amaha Bikini figure.

If your living in the New York State area, then your getting hit with a bunch of snow!
Left the job early and decided to stop and get my comics even though the weather was kinda like crap!
I hate snow!
Anyway, just what did I pick up this week.…
As I have said, as of late I have been trying to stay away from picking up new ” Superhero ” comics, so this week I only have two, and their both from Marvel…
Daredevil #504, continues Matt Murdock’s decent into the dirty, grimy underbelly of the ” hand ”
And the other Superhero comic that I picked up this week is a new entry…
Ultimate X, picks up where Ultimatum left off…
” The world was on the brink of destruction ”
” Countless Heroes Died ”
” The Fantastic Four Disbanded, The X-Men are gone, and Mutants are now Hunted Criminals. ”
and Jimmy Hudson has a secret.…
The Complete Alice In Wonderland issue#2 from Dynamite comics. Okay, this one was released last week and I had a hard time picking this one up at $4.99, even though the first issue was just excellent, and of course this one looks just beautiful and has lots of story to provide that’s a whole lot of dollars.
My last two comics this week are both from the wonderful world of DC’s Vertigo line of books and they are…
The Unwritten issue#10 ” One of the Village Voice’s Best of 2009 ” and I can tell you that’s a well deserved recommendation, as this comic just fires on all burners as the mix of fairytale overlaps with the reality of one ” Tommy/ Tom Taylor
And the other title which I would say can be the sleeper hit of 2010 is ” Daytripper ” called ” Honest and arousing…I couldn’t put it down!…Jeff Smith ( Bone )
Daytripper issue#3 ” 28 ” again focuses on the life of one ” Bras de Oliva Domingo ”
While I haven’t read this issue yet, I will have done so before heading off to slumber land this evening.
Well, that’s all she wrote for this particularly snow bound comic book Wednesday.
