Saber Lily from Hobby Search

My pre-order for Saber Lily ~Distant Avalon~ from Hobby Search has arrived this morning.

The packaging is very well done with the figure solidly secured inside, and it even has bubble wrap padding the back of the dress. The exterior of the box has a foil surface that makes it reflective, creating an effect suitable for Saber.

Best figure hands down out of all those that are currently released, although I am biased in many ways. The quality and level of work required to make this figure is simply astounding. Even the base it stands on is epic. Good Smile Company has certainly made it worth waiting through all those delays on this figure.

Fate/Unlimited Codes

For those Fate/stay night fans out there (like myself), there is a 3D Melty Blood type fighting game out for the PS2 in Japan. As you would expect from the title of this blog, the character I use in this game is Saber in her unlockable fourth costume of Saber Lily. This game has been quite fun even though I am still trying to learn the more advanced combos for Saber shown at the Fate/Unlimited Codes Wiki.

You can see for yourself how the game is like through this trailer:

Besides the 3D aspect, Fate/Unlimited Codes differs from the well known Melty Blood due to the possibility of infinite combos. This basically turns it into a battle of whoever makes the first vital mistake. The menu screen song is Code by Tainaka Sachi who has also done the OPs for the Fate/stay night anime series.

Feel like playing this game yet?

It also seems that they’re porting it to the PSP, be on the lookout for it!
