Kotobukiya Grande Scale

Gene Stellatears Version

Kit Review

Straight build

This kit is the Grande Scale release of the Gene Stellatears Version. Grande Scale Gene Stellainnocent Version's molded colors have been tweaked slightly, and it comes with a newly sculpted costume. As you can see from the comparison shots with the normal-size Phantasy Star Online 2 es Gene Stellatears Version, this is a massive girlpla that feels enormously large.

The basic skeleton and components are identical to the existing Stellainnocent Version, so it still shows excellent joint strength and impressive color separation for its size. The biggest highlight of the Stellatears Version is the change to the body costume and cape design. In particular, the skirt has been shortened, which greatly improves the range of motion for the hip joints — making more dynamic aerial poses possible. Other than the Faux Siltrix being changed to a red molded color, all other components remain the same as before.

Sure, it's a pretty predictable variation kit, but it's pulled off really well as a high-quality kit with great color separation and solid joints. The price does sting a bit at ¥12,000 — pricier than other Grande Scale kits, probably due to licensing costs for the character. That said, the kit itself is a genuinely excellent girlpla model, so if the style appeals to you, it's a purchase you won't regret. :-)
