Akatsuki Mishiro PVC 1/8 by GSC
Posted on Oct 13, 2008Author: Saku
Thanksgiving long weekend here in Canada which means time to do photo shoots of my backlog figures and luckily, we had a sunny weekend unlike previous weeks which was always cloudy. I think I get addicted in taking outdoor photo shoots just because I like the results much better and a lot of backgrounds that I can choose even though it is only in my backyard.
Akatsuki Mishiro is one of the characters in Shuraki Trinity that really picks my interest in getting her. Most figurine collectors probably have this figure far long before I got mine since it’s released on October 2007. These days, you are lucky if you manage to find this figure at your local stores or online since it’s already considered a rare item.
I even have to resort of using ebay to get this figure despite of many bootlegs being sold there and I have to be extremely careful.
I had a lot of fun taking pictures of her and I got some weird looks from my neighbour too. I happened to see one of them peeking from their window and suddenly close their curtains when I looked back at them ^^;;. Meh, whatever, it does not bother me at all ^^.
Figure Details
Manufacturer : Good Smile Company
Scale : 1/8
Series : Shuraki Trinity
Character : Akatsuki Mishiro
Released Date : October 2007
Check out the following websites for more photos of Akatsuki Mishiro:

One of the best outdoor shoots I’ve see in a while. ^^
I get the usually giggles from my sister when I do an outdoor shoot. At my bro is supportive in a small way. -_-
Ur making me want to buy it now which is bad. >_<
Optics last blog post..Music Mondays ~ Hitosashiyubi Quiet!
Ahh…Outdoorshots…I havent got the guts to do this but you have and they turned out quite good!
I dont know when the snowy season in Canada starts but when it does you should take her outside again.I bet it looks pretty cool combined with her base.
Shes your only Shuraki?
Shurakis may be rare online but i bet they are one of the most owned figures out there.I missed my Chance on Char back then :/
Great shots, I need to do some wilderness shots sometimes ^^
@Blowfish: You’ll hear us ranting once it starts, trust me XD
GNdynamess last blog post..Gundam 00 Season 2 Episode 2
Nice outdoor shoot. This is one of the best I reckon =D. I love outdoor shoots. Indoor shoots are boring. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking photos of figs. haha. I’m going to the park for my shoot when I free one of these days ^^
zenicals last blog post..Lucky Star OVA Intro Theme - Ai wo Torimodose!!
That’s a nice outdoor shoot you’ve got there ;). The pose and twin blades kick as*. Nice buy!
Please join the new community I’ve formed :)…
M12s last blog post..Why are you still here?
Nice shots.
I like the wilderness feel. The only challenge in taking outdoor shoots is to find small plants so the figure wont look too dwarfed.
I should brave myself to go into the woods >_<
e-jumps last blog post..May’n will be at AFA’08 Singapore
@Optic: This post serves its purpose then since it makes you want to buy this figure.
@Blowfish: I plan to do photo shoot during winter season with other figure
@GNdynames: It’s really exciting for me and fun ^^
@M12: I tried to join but I got an SQL error message the other day. I will try again soon.
@e-jump: Thanks for pointing that out. I didn’t realize until you mentioned ‘dwarf’ look. I will pay attention next time ^^
@all : thx for all the nice compliments and glad you guys like the photo shoot
Nice job on the shoot!!!!!
I don’t care on how people look at my otaku life style if I do a shoot outside!!!
I want this Shuraki figure…but I decided to get it in Japan next year since it is cheap in japan…
Rins last blog post..New Figures Arrives!!!
Outdoor shoots look great! Especially the ones with the tree and leaves.
rains last blog post..Toy Fair at tHe Spring Part 2
the later shots looks better with the snowy base.
don’t mind the stares. nothing wrong with photographing a figure. ^^;
gordons last blog post..Gundam 00 S2 Episode 2 – Two is Better than One
sorry typo. i meant : the later shots looks better “without” the snowy base. my bad. ^^;
gordons last blog post..Gundam 00 S2 Episode 2 – Two is Better than One
stares are bad … i got that a lot too ^^
anyway , awesome shots , looks great
but you should buy her newer clothes , i can spot her pantsu and eyes , she must be cold
@Rin+Rain: Thx
@Gordon: Yep, wish I realized that sooner ^^;;.
@James: She told me she does not need new clothes ^^
