FINALLY!!! Volks have decided to give us colour shots of their 1/4 scale Bayonetta a week before Chara Hobby, where she will be for sale. We have had to wait quite a while for these shots and I have to say that Volks attempt at making a figure of the witch of Vigrid definitely beat Cerberus Project in this case.

My only reservation is with the face. The expression is appropriate and suits the pose very well, but the face itself doesn't look quite right. Having said that, it has grown on me the more I look at it. On the plus side, the insane level of detail on the kit is still very much present and she looks like she would be a very fun project for kit builders to undertake... If you can afford her.

Bayonetta will be available for purchase next weekend at Chara Hobby and, as with all 1/4 scale Volks resin kits, her pricetag is not something to laugh at! If you want one, be prepared to part with 46,000 yen for the privilege. Granted, it's not as bad as KOS-MOS but it's not far off. Being an event exclusive (for now) you will also need to contact a proxy to get one for you as well.

I'm seriously tempted, but there are also a few other items worth looking at as well. Volks have almost finalised their list of items for the event (it's more than just the gundam kits and Bayonetta) and we'll be sure to post them when volks have finished announcing them.

So what do people think? Best Bayonetta? Or do you prefer the Cerberus Project version? Is there a particular part you love or hate about this kit?
