Hey there everyone, this is Tominon. Instead of playing guitar like everyone else, I played the shamisen in high school... How old fashioned!
But I wear KISS shirts and stuff at home. Well then!
Today I'll be going over the
Tainaka Ritsu Alter Ver., garnering attention for its incredible drums!
"Huh? What are they like?"
That's a wonderful question, and a picture is worth a thousand words. Have a look here.
Wow!!!
"I can't believe it's not a drumset!"
Those words escaped my mouth upon seeing it. It's really that realistic. I thought my jaw would hit the floor when I saw it at Wonder Festival.
Tanaka Sen'u, the sculptor, actually used to play the drums in a band! No wonder these drums are so great.
(Tanaka also brought us
Azusa and
Yui.)
He's created both amazing character
and instrument sculpts that are must-haves for K-ON! fans.
From behind.
Even the way her sleeves crease up is realistic!
Apparently the circular parts were constructed from data, and everything else (like the hardware, the pedal...) was manual work.
Mr. Tanaka, I am not worthy!
Look!
Will you believe it?
He even got the screws and stuff inside of the drum shells ! Now that's what I call detail!
You wouldn't expect this kind of thing on most figures. The reflection on the heads only adds to the realness.
Ritsu's thighs! Wonderful thighs!
The bass pedal and other things around her feet are impressively sculpted too.
It's done so well it looks like you could actually adjust everything.
Ritsu's energetic posing fills
me with energy!
Some figure expressions differ from the original character's image, but Alter delivers time after time, this time being no exception. She looks just as she did in the anime.
Especially her eyes! They glimmer with passion!
And that was a look at
Tainaka Ritsu Alter Ver.!
Now open for preorders here at Hobby Search for

This figure is worth having alone, but even more so with the other HTT members!
