Chulian on Lake

For today's fig post we have this amazing set - that lights up!

This complex and beautiful set features Zhang Zhehan's lotus spirit Qing Lian (aka Xiao-Zhe) from his advertisement for Jade Dynasty: New Fantasy, together with Gong Jun's Dong Fang Yuechu from the upcoming drama Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong.

First, just a few pictures of our ethereal lotus fairy:

And a few pictures of our stunning Daoist priest:

That last one in particular is the inspiration for this fig here.

This set arrived in an enormous, fairly heavy box. I had to ship this air mail because of the electronics involved in it.

I was a little worried about how big and delicate this set was, but it arrived in perfect shape. Full credit to the fig maker and the factory for cushioning it so well.

Here's all the pieces. I still think it's incredible all the fragile flowers and stems make it through.

You can see here the little tiny holes (up at the top by the edges) where you can insert the lotus leaves and flowers. They went in quite easily and were very stable.

Here's a close up of the electronics. The set came with both batteries and a USB cord. The button there turns on the lake light.

Here's the lake by itself, before the figs go in. As you can see, Yuechu stands in the boat via peg legs. Very seaworthy of him! Qing Lian just lays down however you like inside the lotus.

Before we put the figs into their respective conveyances, here's a closeup of them. Qing Lian is all curled up and sleepy eyed, and Yuechu is casting a magical fireball of some sorts.

I could only really get two angles of the figs before they went into the lake, since neither of them stand by themselves.

This was a very difficult set to get good pictures of. One, because I lack any real photography skills, and my phone kept hyperfocusing on certain parts and blurring out the rest. But, as we go around the fig, you do end up seeing the whole thing. So please bear with me!

Beautiful, isn't it? I love how detailed these figures are - their hair is amazing.

Here's a top-down view. Yuechu fits in the boat beautifully - the pegs went right in, and he's pretty secure in there. No glue needed. Xiao Zhe is resting peacefully and easily in his lotus.

We'll do a couple closeups here. He's quite tiny all curled up like that!

Huh. Is Yuechu conjuring up Qing Lian? It looks like we have a lotus in the middle of that magic. I'm not sure!

Our lotus lake at midnight! It does in fact light up like a dream. I just went ahead and plugged the USB cord in the wall, so it's a little less beautiful than it would be cordless with the batteries. Still, it's very lovely.

The fig maker included a double-sided postcard, a matching keychain with the art, the batteries, and the USB cord (that I had already plugged in).

I really appreciate how she included both. This is her first set, and I hope she makes more!

Early Mid-Autumn Festival: Moon Rabbit Lantern Daoist

When I was away on my work trip, this little cutie finally arrived!

This is the last one of this series of figs, all individually sold. You can read about the other three here, here, and here. This was by far the most popular out of the bunch, and sold out instantly when it was first launched. And I do mean instantly - I was there with my finger hovered over the check out button, watching the seconds count down, and I was still too slow. I like to think my hand speed is pretty good, but fig buyers in China are really hard to beat sometimes. Luckily, this fig maker provided an overseas link upon request, and I was able to buy one for me and my friend.

The inspiration for this fig is Gong Jun's character Dong Fang Yuechu in the upcoming TV show Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong. I couldn't find the bunny lantern inspiration for the fig in particular, but I think I finally found at least the costume:

All the costumes are so beautiful from this show - I can't wait!

This fig arrived snuggly wrapped up in his polystyrene mailing box. I really like when the figs are wrapped in plastic - it actually makes removing them from the box very easily. I still cut the box to get out the fig - can't risk breaking off delicate pieces! But the figs slide out much easier.

Here he is, looking beautiful, with his bunny lantern.

This is an extreme, extreme closeup of the lantern...it's tiny! Lots of great details for so small of an item. You can see the handle there where Yuechu will hold it.

The lantern spins fairly freely - you can see when I laid the fig down the lantern turned around.

Here he is! I absolutely love this fig. His hair is perfect, his expression is perfect - everything about him is just completely charming.

Interestingly enough, the lantern is a bit too long for his hand.

You can see here how the tassel hits the ground and causes the handle to push out of his hand. This is easily rectified by putting him on a fig stand, but it does seem like it could have used a bit of a design tweak so folks didn't have to use fig stands if they don't want to. Maybe I also got a lantern that was slightly larger than the norm - production does vary on these figs.

He has a little book in his hand...there's no writing on it or anything to determine what it might be. I'm guessing that the fan sites that sneak pics in during filming couldn't get close enough to tell.

Unlike two of the other Yuechu figs in this series, this one isn't sculpted to be in motion. He's just standing there holding his lantern, looking beautiful.

You can see his two strands of hair that are sticking up in his signature Dong Fang Yuechu hairstyle.

When I was searching for this costume, I was mostly looking at his hair style first, looking for a plain hairpin like this. He has a lot of very ornate, very stylized hair crowns that are absolutely lovely.

The outer robe of these costumes are all very full and billowy. It's a nice look with the belted inner robes

This really is my favorite fig angle! We get a really beautiful shot of the whole fig.

Here's a good look of the fig with the fig stand. You can see how the bunny lantern hangs much better.

This fig has full modeling on the underside, including pants and boots. It's a little hard to see from this angle.

Much more easily seen here!

Yuechu's signature hairstyle here...

And here. Little tiny bit of paint overspray on the hairpin, but I think it's pretty unavoidable at this level of manufacturing. I think to avoid it, they would have had to have the hair pin as separate pieces that were inserted into holes in the hair bun. Much less hassle this way.

That's all four of them now. They're wonderful. I can't wait for this show!

Yuechu Yin Yang Landscape Figures

It's been a while since we spent some time in the Junzhe Extended Universe, so this week is going to be all JZEU!

We're kicking off this week with this incredible fig set. It took some wrangling to assemble, but it was worth it - it's absolutely gorgeous!

The actual name of this fig set is 国风晕染款小道士, which machine translates into something like, small Daoist priests of the national style smudged style. The national style refers to traditional Chinese painting, and the smudged style refers to a painting technique of washes of watercolor paint. The small Daoist priest refers to Gong Jun's character Dong Fang Yuechu from the upcoming Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong. Priests is plural, because we get two of them!

This set arrived in an enormous plain white box. I had my China warehouse air column wrap this box before mailing it out. I've been lucky enough that my non-air-wrapped figs have been sailing through sea shipping without damage, so I've been foregoing the air wrapping more and more. But some I still air-wrap! This was definitely one of them. There's just too much going on with this set, and a friend of mine recently had hers break in numerous parts during shipping, so you can't be too careful on something this complex.

And complex it is. We have a yin-yang black-white base, the two figs, and their accessories.

Here is our outstandingly beautiful base. The white side is a mountain, and the other side a beautiful tree. Both landscape elements are permanently affixed to the base (thank goodness).

Here's the tree side. This smudged style is just gorgeous.

Our two little Daoists and their accoutrements. You can see how their feet have pegs to go into the base. You can also see the assembly task ahead of me! If you haven't read my infamous (to my own self) Hanye with Sword post, well, I could just have easily named it Lelanthe Struggles (and then Struggles Some More) with Basic Fig Assembly, Part 1 instead. If fitting Hanye's sword into his little hand was Fig Assembly 101, this seemed very much like 201, or maybe even graduate school 301.

Normally, I rise to a challenge like this by putting it off until a braver date, or at least until I have enough energy, time, and patience to swear endlessly go for the gusto. This time, though, there were a lot of pieces just lying about, and I had a looming business trip ahead of me, so I wanted to have it sorted before I left.

This had no instructions, and if the seller had given any to the group, I had missed it, so I was on my own. First order of business was figuring out the accessories, since I figured I would need to put those on first before I put the figs in the base.

So the sword fit into the Yin-side Yuechu's delicate little hand just fine. I was very pleased, actually - it's nice and secure without being too tight. I was also really happy that the umbrella handle for the Yang-side Yuechu slid very easily in from the bottom up through his hand. What a good sign this is starting so easily!

Before I went any further, I went ahead and took some bottoms-up angles, since those angles wouldn't be available to us when the set was all assembled.

I went ahead and did the same bottoms-up angle on the base too, very, very gently:

Such beautiful detail. I'm impressed by the scope of this fig maker's vision - this is by far the most complex set I've seen before.

Alright! On to the base!

I could see where there were those bubbles in the base, and they matched up to the pegs on the figs, so it made sense that the pegs would fit in the holes hiding under that thin membrane. But what to do without accidentally ripping it?

I got a sharp new blade for my craft knife and very carefully cut an 'X' right in the center of each of those holes. It doesn't look very much like an X, does it? Well, I was very careful.

Too careful, it turned out. It didn't take long before I realized I had a major problem. The pegs were too large for the holes. I thought that perhaps the edges of the membrane that wrapped down the side of the holes were the problem - they were taking up a crucial millimeter or so of space. So I carefully used my craft knife to trim off the membrane around the hole. And the pegs still didn't fit. Like not even close.

Oh no. This was turning out to be more of A Thing than I expected. A Thing that already seemed rapidly outside my very limited capacity.

I was pretty stumped. The accessories had fit so perfectly, I just felt like there had to be something I was missing. The fig engineering had been too good so far. Maybe, I thought, the fig maker / factory had engineered the pegs for exactly the width of the holes, but they hadn't counted on the pegs being painted. So maybe the paint was the critical millimeter that was keeping them from fitting.

So out came my Tamiya file set. And my mask! My fig friend had strictly warned me when I was wrestling with the Hanye with Sword figure to be sure to not inhale the dust particles. It was a good thing she told me too, otherwise I would just have gone to town on that figure and this one with the cheery abandon of the totally ignorant.

So mask on, I carefully filed down the sides, trying to get just the paint off and nothing else. I tried one peg at first, and knew I was on the right track when it went into the hole while the other one still could not. So I filed down the paint on the other peg too. Being mindful of the fact that I had sanded off a little too much of Hanye's fingers, I tried to err on the side of not taking off very much.

It was still a bit of a tight fit when I put the figs on the base, but the pegs went in, and went all the way to the bottom of their boots. Hooray! Flush with my success, I was sure I just needed to put the umbrella top on and be ready to take the full suite of normal pictures.

I took the Yang figure off the base, put a drop of glue on the little umbrella center hole, slid the handle up to the bottom of his hand and prepared to sit there holding it in place for a few minutes while it set.

And then wait a minute. The umbrella handle wasn't long enough. The top of the umbrella angled off his little tufts of hair on his topknot, and slanted down at like a 30 degree angle. I went back and stared at it in disbelief - was the thick part of the umbrella handle supposed to go in his hand? I mean, look at it. There's clearly room there in his middle of his hand, but do you see any space between his pinky finger and his sleeve for that big part of the handle? And also, look at his thumb and finger - it seems to hold the thin part of the handle just perfectly, doesn't it?

Well, clearly it was meant to slide up into his hand somehow, because the umbrella wasn't going to have any prayer of working otherwise. I very gently tried pulling the handle up, pressing the handle up, kind of rotating the handle up... nothing.

Cue the swearing.

It's been a stressful last couple of years! I really, really can't take breaking a fig finger. I tried wiggling it a bit more, and it was not budging for anything. Then suddenly - I kind of angled it a bit to the side, and it slid right in. I could not believe it.

You see how happy he looks? I looked happier than that! But seriously, look how snug his thumb and forefinger are against that handle. No wonder I was sweating, right?

You may notice, though, that the handle is right up against his hair. It does bow out the tiniest bit from that, but there's really nothing to be done about that. It's barely noticeable though - when we do a spin around this set you can see for yourself.

Once the handle was up higher in his hand like that, the top of the umbrella fit just fine. Not a ton of room between it and his head, but enough.

The glue had long dried by now, so I dropped another drop in, and held the umbrella on top of the little tiny handle piece. Now, I've never been able to see all that straight - if I cut a loaf of bread, for example, my cut will be very thin on one side and get really large (or vice versa!) towards the end. So I wasn't convinced I'd be able to get the umbrella top on level without a couple different angles. So I held the two pieces together upside down long enough to get a tacky bond, then flipped it over and carefully poked at the top of the umbrella until the top end lined up with the pole under it, then held that in place for several minutes.

Then, I carefully put the two figs in the holes, and success! I took a few deep breaths to let the adrenaline settle, then took a little video. It's choppy, because my turntable is not motorized, so it only turns on one-handed Lelanthe power.

It's a little hard to see details from a video, so here's some stills:

And now the top of the fig set:

There was no printed box, and no box card (and I'm out of my 30 picture slots!) so that's all the pictures for today. I'll breathe another big sigh of relief that this all worked out so well. I was worried there for a bit, I have to say.

A few vital statistics on this before we go. The figures themselves are standard fig size - 8 cm each, or about 3.2 inches. The entire set itself from top to bottom is 18 cm in height, or about 7 inches. The diameter of the base is 9.5 cm, which is 3.75 inches - but keep in mind the tree extends out past that. The entire fig set weighs about 1 and a half pounds, so it's substantial!

Dong Fang Yuechu (Handcrafted)

You may recall in my Mid-Autumn, Snow Mountain Edition post that I had bought more of this artist's custom figs, and that I would post about them when I got them. Well, here we are!

This fig is from a fan artist on Xianyu that designs and creates Word of Honor / Junzhe figures for purchase. The artist will also take commissions, but I haven’t done that yet (although I know exactly what figures I want!). Most of them are made to order from sample figs she has up in her shop, but she also periodically makes one-off figs, and puts them up for sale. Well, she put up this one, and I immediately bought it.

This is Gong Jun as his character Dong Fang Yuechu from the upcoming drama Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong. Gong Jun is incredibly beautiful in this drama, and he's wearing just the most gorgeous costumes. Any fig from this show is a must buy for me!

The fig's costume is based off this one:

Outrageously beautiful.

I literally got this fig in the mail today, and immediately had to write it up to post about it the next day (sorry previous post I kicked out of the way!).

The fig arrived in this little plastic box. I did have it wrapped in air columns before I had it sent, as I was really worried about it making it safely to me. It's made out of PVC clay, so it bends rather than breaks, but there's so many delicate pieces to this that it makes me nervous.

The fig arrived already on a base, and with a spare hairpin and a note from the artist. The artist writes that I should brush off any dust with a clean makeup brush.

Did I do that? No! Of course not! I was so excited to take pics of this before I lost the light from the day (my deliveries all get to me late in the afternoon) that I just feather dusted it gently and happily started taking pictures. In retrospect (and for the quality of this blog) I totally should have washed one of my powder brushes, let it dry, and then gently brushed it a day or two later. You'll see as we get to the pics, that there is indeed lint on it (you've failed me, feather duster!). I did go back and gently brush off some of the worst of the lint on his clothing when I was taking the header pic - and guess what? it worked like a charm. Oh well. Please pardon my excitement and less-than-awesome-quality pics!

Here he is, looking exceptionally beautiful. The detail on this fig is outstanding.

There's a number of artists that do handmade figs to order on Xianyu, but I like this one the best since she's a JZP, and her work is delicate and beautiful. You can just tell how much care she puts into her figs.

See what I mean? The face and costume details are so pretty. She doesn't use many straight lines in this fig - everything here is flowing curves, which creates a really beautiful and elegant look.

Luckily, nothing arrived broken or even damaged at all. The top of his guan was a little bent in, but I just gently bent it back and it looks fine.

Look at the beautiful ribbons in his hair and all the details in his hair. Each strand is so carefully placed!

If I was this talented I would be shouting it from the rooftops. My fingers feel clumsy just looking at the level of detail on this!

More of the beautiful hair and the robes. I like how she actually wrapped the ribbon around his curl of hair there.

Hehehe, this is a very arch look, Yuechu! You look ready to unleash some sort of magical spell. Your hand is all ready to fire away!

He really looks like he's leaning over here, but that's just the angle. The fig is made to be turning a bit for a better action shot, so that's why. The detail on his bangs here with the wisp of hair is just outstanding.

I can't even believe this beautiful piece was less than $20. I was so glad I was able to buy it!

It's a larger fig than most of mine - about 4.5 inches, or 11.5 centimeters. Here's a certain someone who's arrived to give us a size comparison. I'm glad Yuechu's a bit bigger to allow for all the details on his costume.

I'm going to do a bunch of detail pics so you can see all the really fine work this artist did. The guan is really, really beautiful.

I mean everything is beautiful. Here's the details on the robes and belt, as well as nice closeups on the hands.

Ah, I took this pic before I bent the top of his guan back. You can see how it's kind of curled over there. I'm so impressed by the patterns on the shoulders. Look at all that hand painting on the patterns and the face. You can see his forehead sigil here too. I cannot imagine how long it took to make this fig!

And one last shot of his beautiful hair and ribbons. What talent - I'm so impressed by this artist!

Early Mid-Autumn Festival: Sweet Tangyuan Little Daoist

This latest shipment of figs all seems to be JZEUniverse, which is just fine by me - I have a special place in my heart for these figs!

This sparkly-eyed, heart-eyed little Daoist priest is of course Gong Jun's Dong Fang Yuechu from Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong.

The inspiration for this fig, as in many others of the figs we have of Yuechu so far, comes from behind the scenes shots during filming.

It's a little hard to see, but if you zoom in you can see the bowl of tangyuan in front of him.

Yes, the watermark says, Junzhe is Always in Love.

Since these pics are pretty far away, here's a closeup so you can see the top pattern of his robes and also his guan.

This fig was limited to 850 and sold out in less than a minute. And that was slow compared to the other Yuechu fig sold at the same time (Early Mid-Autumn Festival: Moon Rabbit Lantern Daoist, stay tuned for that one!), which sold out in seconds. Those were some wild times!

Our hungry little Daoist arrived toting his own bench with him. Like many fig benches and chairs, this one arrived pre-worn in and ready for fig tush to go in fig seat.

I tried propping him up in the chair, but he slid right out. I tried some putty, which wasn't sticky enough, and then some museum wax, which worked perfectly.

Here he is, happily eating away! I love his big happy mouth and smiling heart eyes.

This is a great angle to see the pattern on his robes. You'll also notice that his asymmetric guan has the long tall spire on it on one side only. The hair sticking up on the other side is just that, hair sticking up - the character Yuechu is identifiable by his two individual hairs that stand up on his head.

I think it's cute that his feet don't touch the ground - mine sure don't when I sit on benches!

Sometimes I spin them one way, sometimes the other way. I just realized I'm not very consistent! I guess it doesn't matter as long as you get the full views all the way around, right?

He's all hair and a little bench from this back angle! You can see how one side of his guan is his guan, and one side is his two standing hairs.

Another hair-forward pic here. This looks a lot like A-Xu's hairstyle, doesn't it?

Those are some cute little boots!

Alright, coming back around. You can see his little bowl of tangyuan here too.

And we're back! This an even better view of his bowl and treat. You can also see the drape of his shawl collar on his inner robe here, and this is a nice view of his guan. Although not as nice as this view...

There you go! This is a very difficult guan to render in fig form - a complex asymmetrical free-form metal design is complicated! Kudos to the fig maker for taking a very solid go at it. I can't wait to see his costume and the guan in the show. The light violet oval in the hair crown looks like a beautiful sparkling jewel in the actual still.

You already got the bottoms-up shot earlier in this post, so let's move to the box card:

And happily, this set came with a box sleeve design as well! No plain white boxes here!

In the epic tradition of fig box spoilers, here you go! All of these figs are making their way across the ocean to me now, so you'll see allll these Yuechus at some point! Look forward to it please - I am!

Little Daoist Priest

Wait a minute, you may be saying. Didn't I just see this fig on your blog a couple days ago?

Sort of! You saw another version of this fig, dressed in the same outfit, holding the same sword. This set of photos was just too good, and inspired the fig maker to make two figs.

Here's the exact inspiration for this fig:

He's outrageously beautiful. I feel inspired too, frankly. I'd take all the figs in all the various poses from this and set them up one after the other. I could make a little stop motion movie!

In case this is your first time seeing this fig (or my blog), this is Gong Jun as Dong Fang Yuechu in the not yet released Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong. I'm not sure if I'm more excited for this series or for Junjun's upcoming The Legend of Anle. Both of them have gorgeous costumes and interesting looking stories, so hard to say. Probably this one, if I had to pick, because I really want to see Junjun in a xianxia show.

This fig was in the same series as the other one, and both arrived safely on my doorstep in their protective polystyrene boxes. Unlike the other fig, this one didn't have the big foam hair protector. You'll see why as we take a visual tour around this fig.

Unfortunately, when I took out his sword, I saw it only had the tiniest little hilt! It didn't look broken in the package - there was no small grey piece in the little sword bag, so either it is meant to be this way (unlikely) or it got broken in the factory before packing.

The hilt was in no way long enough for him to hold, so I had to resort to my old friend Glue. I think it ended up looking OK!

These robes have LAYERS. Wait until we get to the end of the post here, you'll see what I mean!

You can see that his hair here is vertical, not flowing in the wind like the other fig.

You can really see from this angle how short the hilt of his sword is in his hand. Never mind any thought it was supposed to be this way, it clearly got snapped off in the factory!

There's a little bit of sideways motion to his hair, and with his robes. I like it.

Little more of the sideways motion. His hair is so sedate compared to the other fig!

His guan and ribbons are as magnificent as ever. Look at the wrapping of the hair around his loop topknot!

We just get a little bit of the print on the shoulders, which is too bad. This costume is so pretty.

The fig maker made his eyes the exact same swirly pattern as the other fig, which makes sense. They are wearing the same costume, after all, and the eyes are picking up on the patterns.

This is a good angle to see some of the layering on the costume, but not nearly as good as this angle:

He has his pants, and then four more layers here! Amazing.

I wish all this layering was more visible when the fig was standing up.

That gorgeous guan - the base of it looks almost like a lotus flower, doesn't it?

Such a pretty fig. Unlike the other Yuechu fig, this one stands up on it's own just fine.

Since this came in the same series as the other one, it too has neither printed box or box card, which is a pity. I would have loved more of the fig artwork.

Thanks for reading through this week's Junzhe Extended Universe fig posts! We'll be back to the regular schedule (of randomly selected figs) tomorrow!

Little Jade Daoist

The Junzhe Extended Universe week continues here with another Dong Fang Yuechu! We saw him on Monday with the Yuechu Yin Yang Landscape Figures, and we'll definitely see more of him this week (and weeks to come).

He's already a very popular fig, even though Gong Jun's Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong hasn't yet aired. The gorgeousness of the costumes no doubt has a lot to do with that.

This fig was inspired by this beautiful photo set:

I just cannot get over how beautiful this entire costume is, and how amazing Gong Jun looks in it. He must have a photo where he has this sword turned down, like the fig is holding it, but I unfortunately don't have it! We might have to wait until the show airs.

It's nice when the fig makers put the assembly parts in little plastic bags, so there's no concern that a part accidentally broke off (or fell off, I suppose, in this case of this hand!)

This fig was packed very carefully, with extra foam tightly packed in so his gorgeous sweep of hair didn't get crushed.

Here he is with his hair flying free, and before his hand-in-sword is assembled.

I did go ahead and glue his sword-in-hand (it is just one piece). It was slightly loose for my fig, and the odds of it eventually wiggling out over time was higher than average. I strongly prefer not to walk into my office to see a fig hand on the bottom of my display shelf - it's just too much for my delicate sensibilities that early in the morning.

This fig in no way stands up on it's own, despite the nicely sized boots. I stuck it to my countertop with some putty so you could get an uninterrupted photo shoot, but it went right on a standee afterwards.

Interesting that the hand mudra he's doing here is just one finger and his thumb. I'm so used to the sword hand mudra with the two fingers that I actually sat here and counted his fingers a couple times!

This is a great angle to see the massive sweep of hair and his very fancy guan and ribbon combo. I love absolutely love ribbons - they're my all-time favorite clothing element. I just find them delightful. Yuechu has a number of costumes with ribbons in his hair, so I can't wait to see them.

Speaking of costume elements, the hair crowns he has in this show are truly crowns. They seem incredible. I know you can get some pretty elaborate (and tall!) ones in wuxia and xianxia shows in general, just judging from screenshots that have come across my dashboard, but these, like all the costumes and costume elements in this show, seem particularly beautiful.

Look at all that hair. This whole fig is swirls upon swirls of resin!

This is a great angle to see the motion in the hair, and why having that extra piece of foam was a great packing move on the part of the factory. This isn't as heavy as a figure as it looks, but it's still a very delicate neck for so much going on.

This is a better view of that very same slender neck. You see what I mean? You can also see how his sword does not actually touch the ground. Which is good from a sword maintenance perspective, but I was actually hoping it might touch a little bit to create some stability for this fig.

I love the way his eyes picks up the original design on the shoulders of his costume.

See his nice wider feet? I was hoping that would help keep him stable on his feet, but unfortunately not.

Speaking of wide, he also has a nice wide horse stance here!

The fig maker and the factory did a beautiful job on his guan. Look at all the detail on that.

I sure hope the costume maker is enjoying all these little figs of their beautiful creations! Can you imagine? How wonderful would it be to see your pieces of artistry worn so beautifully by Gong Jun, and then to have them rendered so cutely in fig form? Fantastic!

The figs in this particular series didn't come with either printed boxes or cards, so no extra artwork. Which is too bad, since this figure is so nice!

Daoist Priest with Sugar Gourd - New Year's JZEU Series (13)

This figure is actually the last one (so far) in this fig maker's JZEU series. Hopefully we'll see more soon, since I have absolutely loved every single fig in this series.

The fig maker already did one version of Gong Jun's Daoist priest Dong Fang Yuechu from Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong in Ink and Wash Daoist Priest - New Year's JZEU Series (6), but as with all these figs, the more the merrier. Especially since Yuechu has so many beautiful costumes.

The inspiration for this figure is this gorgeous number:

Look at that hair crown. Amazing. Here's another shot of it:

This guan is legitimately a crown crown, it's huge!

Look at him, he's so sweet looking, holding those tanghulu in his hand and the cute little wibbly smile.

Despite his very solid looking feet (more to come on that), this swirly-robed cutie sends to topple over. I tacked him down with a little bit of museum putty in order to take pics, but after that he went right on a standee.

His silver ribbons down the back of his head came a little bit squished together due to the packaging. I took a few pics before I washed* the figs before realizing the ribbon was too lopsided, so you'll see the ribbon moving in these pics!

*Yes, I wash the figs when I get them (I've seen a LOT of factory videos, and it's a surprisingly handiwork-intense process!) to get any factory dust or oil off them. I just turned the water a little bit warmer and re-shaped the ribbons.

Pre-wash!

Post-wash! I could have straightened out the ribbon a bit more but I was in a hurry.

I've since straightened out the ribbon on our right, but honestly I think it looks fine like this too. It doesn't have to be perfectly symmetrical! You can see a little bit of the museum putty down there by his feet, where I was holding him in place.

There's a lot of sunlight shining off his golden robes here, but they're really this pretty. This is a great angle to admire that incredible guan he's got going on there too.

That guan is officially Not Messing Around (tm). It's intensely decorative and stately and I am here for it.

Now this is the best view ever of the tanghulu! It's looking shiny-sugary-crisp and crunchy. I've never had tanghulu but I'm 100% ready to try one. This is a nice angle to see the movement on his waist tie too.

I know you've already seen the front picture but I just can't resist putting another one in the post. He's just so cute! His robes are swirly, his mouth is both sweetly uwu AND a bit pulled up to the side (for extra cuteness AND a bit of a rascally look!). His forehead mark is looking magical and his enormous beautiful eyes with the crescent moon are just fantastic. I love this fig so much, there's just something special to it, I don't know what it is.

No, I do know what it is, it's that the robes are swirly and his hair is in motion, and it reminds me a little of my phone lock screen that I'm absolutely crazy about:

I love this picture so much, I can't even tell you.

His feet are nice and wide - this should provide a wonderful stable base, which it doesn't quite do. However, it provides lots of real estate for the fig sticker to grip on, so I'll take it. Note that these wider than average feet are still really quite small! Also notice that he has a white stripe going up vertically on his boots...that's the first time I've ever seen that before. Little bit of style there, Yuechu!

This is actually a great angle to see all the layers in his sleeves and his robes. It also shows off the motion in his waist tie. Very nice.

I figured I'd show this angle from the back too. You can see this is one of the pics I took where his silver hair ribbon is still bent from the cross-continental voyage to me.

Ooh, his guan. What a magnificent piece of hair jewelry! This thing is not messing around. I can't wait to see it on the big screen. This is also a nice angle to see his forehead mark and the shiny sugar gleam of the tanghulu.

Another angle so you can see more of what's going on with this silversmith's masterpiece!

You'll notice that the fig maker's inspiration piece is Yuechu meditating vs actually standing and holding the tanghulu. Interesting! Yuechu canonically does love his sweets, so this rendition does make sense.

Yet another gorgeous piece of art on the box from this fig maker. I really, really hope she continues on in this series!

Clever Little Daoist

Dong Fang Yuechu is looking very resolute here! This is our third in this series of Gong Jun in action as his character in Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong.

I posted about the other two here and yesterday, and the last one in this series is actually touching ground in the Port of LA today! I should be able to post it this week - I'm so excited about it I'm going to pull it in front of the line when he gets here 🎉

But in the meantime, let's focus on this clever and determined little man. He is in fact, ready for action with his fulu in hand, ready to hurl some magic at the enemy.

I don't actually have the photo inspiration for this fig, which is unfortunate...I'll have to keep looking. I do at least have these behind the scenes pictures of his costume:

Gorgeous! I wish I had HD closeups of this (and all of them). I've been noticing how a lot of his costumes have asymmetrical prints to them, which I find really lovely. I think it adds some interest to the looks.

Another fig delivery in custom cutout polystyrene! You can see the extra special height they gave this fig for his two little hair strands on his topknot. When I ship these type of resin figs I always try to get them air-column wrapped, which unfortunately adds to the shipping expense, but I think does a great job protecting them during the sea travel.

However, with my work travel schedule and the amount of figs in my warehouse, in the fog of war I totally missed getting these wrapped (along with a whole bunch of others!). Luckily, they sailed right though without any mishaps.

Thank goodness too! I love him. Since his costume is so white here, I'm foregoing my usual white background to try to get some better contrast in here. My weak winter daylight doesn't help though.

Oops, I just realized I missed photographing the first 1/8 turn here - I, like this fig, was clearly all business here. Well, we'll start at the first 1/4 turn, with his perfect posture and a nice view of his action pose. I like how this fig and the one from yesterday are standing very still and upright, but you get a sense of motion from them because of the way their robes flow. Yesterday the robes were flowing behind, like the fig was moving forward, and here we have almost a backwards motion with the arm going behind, giving us some great sleeve and robe movement.

Which you can see more of here with his arm and hand rising up. The hair is coming off the neck and back as well due to the motion.

This is a slightly better view of the hair motion! And also of his hairpin and his hair topknot "antenna".

Ah, this is an even better view of the motion in his hair. This is a fairly simple fig in some respects as the costume is almost pure white, but you get a lot of thought in the fig physics here.

Speaking of fig physics, you'll notice that unlike yesterday's Yuechu, this one stands up just fine.

I've noticed a lot of his costumes (as near as I can tell from the previews and the BTS shots) seem to have a tiny little bit of a train on them. I'm a big fan of that aesthetic choice for sure. Here, I think it's less of a mini train and more of the way the fabric is flowing to show motion.

Like yesterday's fig, this last 1/8 angle view is my absolute favorite. A lot of personality and you get a lot of the elegant motion here too.

And back around. Here you can see the asymmetrical blue band on one of his collars.

I took this a little bit to the side so you could see his color coordinating white pants and white boots.

Not as quite as many layers to this fig's costume as yesterday's but still quite the respectable detail for the underside you'll generally never see!

This is actually straight on the center of the fig, so you can see all the motion and angles in the hair. Sorry there's a bit of a shadow there obscuring the right side of the pic.

Oh no, my box card met with some mishap! Sorry Yuechu, your beautiful face has some battle damage there.

I'm still not entirely sure why the box card side's art of this fig has a ghostly white face compared to his ears, when the card art is normal, but who can say what mysterious things happen during printing!

Alright, saving the best for last...soon we'll see the last fig, that cute little bunny lantern one we have there.

Cool Little Daoist

We're back with another Dong Fang Yuechu fig! This time, he's making a hand sign and looking beautiful and ethereal doing it.

Gong Jun is looking a little less otherwordly and much more intense in this still from Fox Spirit Matchmaker:

He is, however, looking very cool indeed! I can't wait to see this show.

Better view of the costume here. I like the asymmetrical look of it, very unique.

And a blurry but full length shot! It looks like he removed the outer layer of the robes, probably because of the the heat.

Our little Daoist arrived, like all the Yuechu figures in this series, securely tucked into his polystyrene box. I was a bit worried with all of these because of his delicate "antenna" hair strands, but so far they all arrived safe and sound.

And here he is, looking serene and beautiful. He's also leaning back - I have him tilted up slightly on his heels to get him to stand.

He isn't totally unstable on his cute little booted feet there, but the lightest puff of air would knock him right backwards.

So on a stand he went. He's really a beautiful fig - I like the flowing motion going on with his hair and robes.

I'm of course very partial to Gong Jun with his hand tucked behind his back. It's very Wen Kexing to me, even though I assume it's just a very elegant pose for handsome young masters.

Here's his little strands of hair standing up! His hair antenna are a trademark of this character. I wonder how they got his hair to stay like that in the show, and if they move at all when he moves, or if they're pretty stationary. I guess we'll see!

Like many of these figs, he's mostly hair in the back!

Here's a good angle of his hairpin in particular, but you also get the flash of blue on the inside of his sleeve there.

You can see his little curled hand there in the back. The fig stands beautifully once he's stuck to the fig standee - he's beautiful and regal.

This is my favorite angle on this fig - his expression is just wonderful here. You can also see the delicate white embroidery on his shoulders from this angle.

And we're back around! If you zoom in you can see the white embroidery on his other shoulder too.

There's a lot of underlayers on this robe here, and if you look carefully you can see he has white pants tucked into the black fabric of his boots.

Ah, that's a better side of both the robe layers and the pants/boot combo.

Here we have the top of his beautiful head, with a good shot of both his hair strands and the hairpin.

And here's that big beautiful ponytail!

That's two out of the four Yuechu figs in this set - we've already done the sitting and snacking one here. Come back tomorrow for the ghostly looking white one in the middle. He doesn't look like that in fig form, don't worry!

Ink and Wash Daoist Priest - New Year's JZEU Series (6)

I would say we were moving in a less martial direction with this fig, but based on what I've seen of the previews, Dong Fang Yuechu wields a sword with the best of them!

Gong Jun's Daoist priest Yuechu is one of the two main stars in Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong. The series should be airing fairly soon - hopefully early 2nd quarter 2023! The sneak peaks have been incredibly beautiful, and they have proved inspiring for our intrepid fig makers.

This handsome little man is inspired by this promo pic from iQIYI:

The writing on his arm is not, as I originally thought when I saw this photo, a tattoo. It's just a post-production add to this promo poster.

The fulu (magical Daoist talisman, analogous to an ofuda if you're familiar with them) that he's holding in his hand is also post-production.

This shoot was so gorgeous that his studio came out with a video:

Absolutely gorgeous.

No surprise this became a fig, right?

And a gorgeous fig at that. His costume is way too intricate to fully replicate in miniature form, so the fig maker wisely alluded to the prints in some key areas, vs. maybe overwhelming the fig with tons of patterns.

It's hard to explain, but this fig is .... very slightly textured. It has this soft velvety feel to the PVC all the way around. It's not restricted to certain areas to create a different texture from the regular smooth PVC finish, it's the whole fig. It's very pleasant to the touch. I think of it as kind of a matte velvet finish, but I'm sure there's a technical name for it.

This is a great view of his enormous ornate silver guan. As you saw from the original picture, the hair crowns in Fox Spirit Matchmaker make ordinary ones look downright plain.

The factory did a great job on his hair and guan - no silver overspray at all. I like how his robes have motion to them in the back.

A very regal look here, helped by another view of that incredible guan. I also like how the fig maker designed his posture - he doesn't have the Fig Forward Lean (tm) we see so often which makes the fig look unbalanced, he has more of a forward motion to him with the robes trailing out behind him. That does a nice job offsetting the weight of the head and makes him a nicely stable fig.

This fig is just beautiful all the way around. The green moons in his eyes, the silver mark on his forehead, the simple yet elegant design of his robes. I like the touches of blush on his face, his ears, and his hands - subtle and delicate.

The sword finger mudra is also one of my favorite ones in general, so this fig gets an A+ all the way around.

You can see here that he has pants, but they aren't delineated by color. Even the boots are the same robe colored green. Which makes total sense, since no one can see when he's standing. You know how I just like all the little hidden and totally unnecessary details!

Sorry Yuechu for the extreme closeup, but I was trying to get a good shot of the print down the side of his outer hanfu. I need a tiny camera!

Yet another beautiful box from this maker. I love them all!

Irregular Daoist

Since we're already in the JZEUniverse after the last two posts, let's stay just a little while longer for our first fig of Dong Fang Yuechu (东方月初), Gong Jun's character from his upcoming xianxia Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Yue Hong (狐妖小红娘月红篇).

Gong Jun is not the titular Fox Fairy of this show, that's his co-lead Yang Mi. He's a human Daoist with magical powers. You can watch a brief intro / filming wrap-up special of Fox Spirit Matchmaker with English subtitles from iQiyi on YouTube here.

So this is the first fig...out of 20. Yep, 20 figs that I know of for Yuechu, and that is based off only a few photos from filming and promotion. I can't even imagine how many we're going to have once the show actually drops!

But it's no wonder. Gong Jun looks outrageously beautiful in this - the filming staff learned from Word of Honor that spending the money to put him in gorgeous costumes and wigs was worth every single bit.

Junjun also took a page from his Zhang Laoshi's filming experience, and just like Zhehan did for Zhou Zishu, he grew his hair out long enough so his real hair could mix in with the hairpieces and wigs for a more natural and beautiful look.

This is the look we're benefiting from for these inspiration pics for this fig:

Yuechu is photographed quite a bit in the few pictures we have holding tanghulu, which is a popular candied fruit snack on skewers. You've seen the bright red hawthorn berries coated in sugar before, as our dear Tanghulu Niuniu is holding them tightly in his cute little hands here.

Our precious little daoist arrived with his tanghulu safely packaged, and his sword a little worse for also being safely packaged! The little wrapper bag that he came sealed in kept him pretty tightly held. I'm pretty sure that unlike Baiyi, Yuechu's sword is not supposed to be bendy.

No problem though! This isn't super uncommon for PVC figs - I just ran the sword under hot water and gently coaxed it back into a straight line. It usually takes a couple instances to get it to stay, since it's been in that bendy space for a while.

His tanghulu stick just slides right into his hand, nice and easy. Thank goodness. There's been one too many cases recently of swords etc not fitting quite right into hands, and it always makes me worry to muscle pieces around.

You can see here that even though the sword is now straightened, it extends pretty far past the plane of the bottom robes. It's not enough to tip the fig off balance, but it definitely is not a smooth standing fig.

This is the part where I give my normal spiel on how the PVC seam molds etc aren't this noticeable in real life - these figs are so small and dainty that they really just blend in. I've taken pics of figs before that look totally normal just sitting on the shelf, but in the harsh light of the camera I'm shocked to see a thin layer of dust. I go back and look at the figs again - is my eyesight going?!?! - but no, it looks perfect. The lens really does pick up any intangible imperfections (a lesson I should take to heart next time I take a selfie!)

You can see how the sword has to bend a bit on it's side to stay straight here. I get why the fig maker didn't shorten it - it would look more like a dagger than a sword if it was shorter.

A little bit more of the bendy sword, along with Yuechu's impressive half ponytail. Fans have commented that in some pics, he looks a lot like A-Xu, and he actually does.

A shot from above so you can see his hairstyle and hairpin, and the sugary shine off the tanghulu.

The robes and nice wide feet make this an extremely stable fig. I wouldn't need to put it on a fig stand at all, except for the sword.

As you can see though, the addition of a fig stand gives his sword the necessary clearance.

An extreme closeup so you can see the detail on the robes, the delicious shiny tanghulu, and his tanghulu-munching mouth. His sword has an inscription on it, which I just noticed. I can see the character for 'moon', but can't make out the rest.

Speaking of moon, 东方月初 Dōngfāng Yuèchū transcribed literally means New Moon of the East / Eastern New Moon, which is beautiful. I do see the moon in his eyes (this is also a CPF fig maker, so of course we know the dual meaning of moon here).

Google translate helpfully tells me that the name of the sign is "Moon Palace".

There's all kinds of stuff going on in this artwork! Not sure what is happening with the sword here, but there is lots of food, and MTL tells me the name on the vertical sign is "Moon Moon Bun Shop". Can't wait for this show to air so I can learn more!

No Regrets

Han Ye week(end) continues with our weiqi playing Crown Prince.

The inspiration for this figure is this beautiful silver and white costume:

Here's some behind the scene pictures:

His costumes are so beautiful in this show. As befits a crown prince, of course!

He arrived nice and safe to my house. You can see his rosy cheeks even through the protective plastic!

This serious little man stands perfectly!

I guess you have to be serious when you're playing weiqi at this level.

You can tell by the tiny bit of paint overspray that the bowl for the pieces is attached, not a separate piece. Which I'm very grateful for, one less thing to worry about wedging into fragile fig fingers (why no, I'm still not mildly traumatized by Han Ye with Sword).

It's a little hard to tell here, but the neckline of the under robe extends up on the neck there, which is a nice touch.

I like all the detail on the guan on the back - actually all the detail on the back of this fig. It's nice to have the full pattern and the details on the belt on the back.

I don't recall what episode it was that Han Ye wore this outfit. Note to self, when I watch Fox Spirit Matchmaker, I'm going to note down all the costumes each episode! I have a ton of Han Ye figs, but I bet I'm going to have even more Dong Fang Yuechu figs.

He's flashing quite a bit of wrist there!

The molding on his hands is great, I love the pose.

He's very frowny! The fig maker gave him immensely soulful eyes here. Aww, Han Ye honey, it's gonna be ok. All your planning will work out (mostly).

A close up of those enormous eyes. I was actually trying to get a shot of the inside of the bowl, since I know you'd be curious (at least I was!) if there were any more weiqi pieces inside the bowl. But no, it's the last one Han Ye is holding there.

Unlike some other figs, he doesn't have boots and pants, just legs. Still, nice to have legs at all vs. a flat bottom fig!

A little easier to see from this angle.

A close up of that beautiful silver guan.

And the beautiful silver guan from the back. It's more centered than it looks, I just hadn't centered the fig quite right in my camera.

This fig maker's box cards are always very distinctive, since they all have the paw print on the back with the three fig angles on the back.

Alright, that's 4 figs into our week of Han Ye figs - we're more than half way through! Come back tomorrow for another appearance by our handsome Crown Prince.

Wenzhou Set 1 (Handcrafted)

Following up yesterday's Dong Fang Yuechu, we have this little Wenzhou set by this same, extremely talented artist.

If you think I can't get enough of this artist's hand-crafted figs, you'd be right! I have more on their way to me even now, including, yes, Wenzhou set 2.

If you haven't read yesterday's post, or if you haven't read this previous post where I talked about Mid-Autumn, Snow Mountain Edition, then you should know I bought this fig set from a fan artist on Xianyu that designs and creates Word of Honor / Junzhe figures. This set are made-to-order figs, meaning that she has this style up in her store and will make it when ordered. She says that she needs a few days to create the fig, but I've noticed that everything I've ever bought from her has shipped immediately, in-stock or otherwise.

These figs arrived wrapped in plastic wrap and cushioned with a bit of polyfill. I did have the warehouse wrap these in air column bubble wrap, since I don't trust something this small and delicate to anything else. Since it's just polyclay, it seems to be pretty resistant to breaking, but crushing damage would absolutely destroy it.

Unlike yesterday's fig, I gave these a nice dusting with my untrustworthy but still useful feather duster, and then brushed the travel lint off with a clean makeup brush. I did pretty well, although I did notice during upload of the pics that a few pieces of grass from the green grass base made their way onto the figs. It's just so hard to see - these figs very small, and my close up vision is not as good as it used to be.

How small you say? Tiny. So small! I'd say a little over half the size of a normal fig, not counting the bases. Here to illustrate relative fig sizes is our Ghost Valley Master. Thank you for your service!

I fell in love with this set immediately. Their faces are so, so cute!

The level of detail is all the more impressive for being so small.

Oh their faces. Just too adorable!

Hmm the detail on these pics are not astounding. The light I took them in wasn't great. I'll take some close ups too so you can actually see all the wonderful detail.

I really like how she did all the hair detail and of course both of their hair ornaments. I particularly love whenever fig makers replicate this particular hair tie of A-Xu's. It's so great!

The little poses with the hands are just so cute. We can't see much of A-Xu's face here since his bangs cover it up, but we can see Lao Wen smiling away!

Why not smile? He's walking along with his favorite person in the jianghu! Who also looks very sweet and happy! I just love them.

Swapping sides so you can get a better view! Alright, let's finish up the two up and down sides so we can get to the details.

Hehe, not too much to see here, although I'll note they look just as cute from this angle.

There we go! Onto the details. I'm going to bring these figs downstairs and see if I can't get some better light somehow.

Well I'll tell you what, the better light did an exceptional job of showing me where I hadn't dusted all the lint off! My goodness. I went back and cleaned it up, but ignore any stray bits. Hopefully this gives you a good amount of detail of his beautiful waist ornament and the painted detail on his robes.

His hairpin is so beautiful I had to show you a picture of it. Just for something like this, can you imagine how long it took to make? To keep referring back to the costume to make sure it was perfect in every detail? Just incredible.

He's so beautiful I just wish my photographic (and dusting!) skills were up to the task. I see my camera decided to focus on his lovely costume instead of his expressive eyes, but hopefully this is at least a little bit better than the further away ones.

Yes, A-Xu, you're perfect, and you've never done anything wrong in your entire life. No I will not be taking any other opinions from the jianghu, thank you!

His hair tie is perfect. I really like how she modeled his hair here, it's lovely. You can see the details and beautiful lines of his robe here - even the sleeves are so artfully done.

Just so delightful. I'm so happy with these figs! I can promise you when the next set arrives, they too will jump to the head of the fig-posting line.
