Nendoroid 2361 Gunbuster Noriko Takaya

Today we open a Noriko. I preordered this from Goodsmile USA. With my preorder I received some action pieces and a yellow version of her headband. The headband is two parts. There is a forehead piece that attaches under her front hair and a hanging tie piece that plugs in to the side of her head. You do not need to have the headband installed for the front hair to fit properly. Noriko comes with a set of crossed arms two other bent arms an extra hand a bent leg and some small question marks. This figure is a bit different from the usual Nendoroid figures. She does not seem to bend or twist at the waist. She could just be stuck but I could not get it to give at all. She also had different leg/hip joints. There is a long bar with a ball on each end that slips in to her hips and in to her waist. I like this version much better. It will certianly stay on much better than the older figure legs. The clear Question marks do not work very well together. If you place two on their side the center one does not have much of a grip and falls. If you just do one at the center top of her head it works much better. This is a great little figure. I need more Noriko figures. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.
