This week's figure is the beautiful Christie Monteiro from Tekken. :-D
(Various Webfinds of the character. ^_^)
This tribute is an expansion of an amazing set that Heretichero awhile back:
This model of of Christie is part of the Kotobukiya Bishoujo Statue series. I talked a little bit about the Bishoujo series when I did Juri's figure tribute a few weeks back. Basically the figures in this set are made to look as sexy as possible. ^_^ They have a little bit of a Japanese manga style design to them that carries to the western character model as well. It comes off very nice. ^_^ This model of Christie is about 1/7th scale and 10" in height. Once again the sculptors did a really job putting extra details into Christie's feet with this model. I really like how Christie's soles are lighter than the tops of her feet. It's a very nice touch. :-)
Christie is actually my favorite character to play as in Tekken. Her Capoeira style is incredibly powerful and beautiful to watch in action. It's like watching a person dance; fluid and acrobatic and as Tekken gamers know... it is very hard to block against. The fact that Christie is barefoot is of course icing on the cake. She has the type of feet that a person could spend hours staring at without getting bored. You have to envy some of the opponents that she goes up against getting a chance to be kicked around by her. :-D
Ok everyone, that's it for today. Have a great weekend and as always more to come soon!
