While I'm not into them, I'm aware that most of the world is into mobile gaming. With such a large influx of these games, it was only a matter of time before some of them got popular enough to warrant Character Goods in the Figma line. One such game is Arknights, and one of its lead character, Ch'en.
She's given the Title of Dual Blade Master, which make sense given what she's equipped with - a standard sword, and Chi Xiao, her personal sword (the red one).
The overall transition to Figma is typical, meaning she's a bit leaner and not as curvy as her source art, but it's passable. If you compare the two, this is like the slightly older version of the character, perhaps one that has undergone some additional battle training.
The quality of the overall product is as you'd expect. Things look sharp, stay together, and don't have any poor finishes. I really like the additional pouches and straps of her uniform, as well as the functional scabbard of Chi Xiao. It's large enough that paint wear should not be an issue. This also means one less concern about tiny parts.
The articulation, like with most Figma, isn't bad, but certainly isn't going to blow your mind. Functional waist joint is certainly nice, and I hope is a standard feature going forward, not just on outfits where it makes sense from a colour break perspective.
