It may say, “Volks”, but actually since only one figure really interested me, I suppose it is not right to say “Volks”. This is the last of the figures and manufacturers that made any kind of impression on me. Coupled with my possible purchase of a Volks’ Dollfie Dream it seems quite likely that I am not going to order any more figures (including this one) for the entire year…if ever again. My passion is just not in it anymore. Maybe figures of my 2D harem, but no further.
Character Name: KOS-MOS Ver. 4
Series: Xenosaga III
Version: Garage Kit
Release Date: Next Hobby Round in April (not sure when)
Price: Seriously godly even though I am unsure of actual price
Considering the previous KOS-MOS Ver. 4 garage kit sold for a whopping 50,400 Yen, you can expect this one to cost about the same just for the kit alone. Beating even the previous version to claim the title of “Best KOS-MOS Figure Evar!”, this one sports a different weapon, a blade of sorts. I never played the game, but there was a smaller version in Xenosaga I, which I did play. The strongest most winning point about this KOS-MOS figure is that she is the first ever to have blue eyes. As I recall, if she has blue eyes, that means her personality had switched on. Dammit.
Well considering that she is so expensive and that I am already going to be giving my monies for a Volks’ product this year and scrimping on almost everything else, I am obviously not going to be able to get this one. I would like to but even after the purchase, I would not be able to assemble and paint her and stuff. So no point for me.
That wraps up my Wonfes coverage for 2010 Winter. Though it might seem like the figure makers are going all out, their prices are also going all out, and this can only be attributed to rising costs in materials and inflation. It seems like a good time to quit figure collection and maybe spend money elsewhere in other far bigger life priorities. At least, it seems that way to me.
Pictures in this post thanks to Anime.CollectionDX, I have not really been able to find her pictures elsewhere, and I was alerted to her existence by Wcloudxkumo. Thanks to both!

Looking at the cost, it’s just not practical for me to buy. It better get the title of “Best KOS-MOS Figure” if it’s that expensive.
I found out about this one via a random pic on the 2ch figure/gk board!!
Managed to get some info about the whole thing but you’re mostly right in your assumptions. Going to post on my blog later.
And yes, she is not going to be cheap… Again!!
Beautiful, but too much for me.

That would be one mighty expensive Kos-Mos, I have seen her pics in some other site but I haven’t noticed the blue eyes until you mentioned it….
