Can't decide which Ninja I want~ please help!

Post by p0etiq » Sun Jul 15, 2012 6:19 pm

Hello Everyone!

I have recently received my first Shinki, and man was I impressed. Thing is, now I want more! I have a seller lined up for an Arnval Mk2 Tempesta, and I am thinking of adding one of the ninjas to my small collection-- but I cannot decide which one I want more =(

It is between the Type 2s, only because the feathered versions are too expensive. Fubuki or Mizuki. Redhead or Bluehead. White Armor or Black Armor-- my head hurts. Could I get a few opinions?

My first Shinki was Proxima and I have a seller lined up for Tempesta... if that helps with a decision, lol.

the thing to keep in mind is the two ninja share most of their parts. Alternate headgear, weapons, and feet are almost all that differs (aside from colors, of course)

I got both and ended up liking Mizuki (a little bit) better.
If all else fails toss a coin.
just me stealing your shadow...
and whatever else a camera can take.

And as a counterpoint to the above post, personally, I found myself liking Fubuki more, simply because she was easier and more fun to pose (Mizuki's feet are... kinda annoying). Plus rollerskating ninjas are awesome.

when it comes down to it, I like Fubuki better (her weapons/gear options seem nicer), but like Mizuki's colors tons more.

have you seen reviews for each?
Simply- there isnt one better then the other ,is there?- they are well rounded on pieces, one doesnt feel less then the other-each have their strong/weak points, and you need to decide on which points you value more personally.
I also only had to pick one, and in the end, after seeing what both had to offer , i decided on Mizuki.

(i liked fubuki's armor setup more, but mizuki stroke me as more beautiful-her bow is amazing and found the ears way cute! the boots aint simple, but it aint a con to me!they wwere quite unique.Also; horns. Today i dont feel the need to get fubuki at all. im most pleased.)

IKR?! If she was in black then there would not be an issue at all..

As for everyone else, yeah, I know they can be quite similar-- it's the reason I'm at a loss -_-

Nina with roller blades? Awesome.
Ninjas with a bow? Awesome as well.

I do agree with you here... her bow and her horns are so adorable!
Her hair *is* nicer imo, and her facial expressions give off a nice sad/upset look.

Mreh. I think I made my decision!


Thanks for the help everyone!
