Organic's Asuka Summer ver.
This is an older figure, which came back in stock recently on Big Bad Toy Store. I do feel this is a decent and cute rendition of Asuka.
That said, you can really see the lack of polish here. The paint work on the hair doesn't look quite as bad in person, but the mold seam lines are still apparent.
The hat is a seperate piece, it's actually really hard to get her to hold it.
The bottom of her dress is slightly transparent, and has blue polka dots.
As well as her traditional hair style. Ther hair pieces can be used with either head.
Asuka includes her shoes (which can not be put on) and a bucket. These are loose pieces which can be arranged as you desire, or space requires. You may also notice the bad mold line/flashing running up her left foot and leg. All in all, I like this figure, despite the flaws. That said, the price was $58.99 plus shipping and sales tax, bringing it to just over $70. So there are better values if you are just want a figure of Asuka, as opposed to this specific version.
My Asuka shelf. Still haven't worked this new one in... I'm running out of space.
