i think the preorder bonus LED sign that you get from Estream is a separate piece that's not part of the figure. But I could be wrong. I bought the Ram and Emilia Neon City, but opted out of the Rem. I think Ram turned out fantastic, so im glad I bought it
Not sure how it's supposed to work but on their website the image for the LED sign is identical to the Rem arrow sign... 🤔🤔🤔 Congrats on adding those 2 to your collection, they're absolutely beautiful! 😍
Oof, that hurt when the sign broke. Yeah, I dunno what they were thinking with that price point. I agree that they at least should have had the signs light up. :( At least Rem looks cute lol, I like her outfit.
The price was insane! They really should've made it light up, would make sense for the "Neon City" theme. But nonetheless it's one of the most pretty Rem figures! And Emilia of the series is the MOST gorgeous Emilia figure on the market, hands down. Yet I had to pass up on them for the price, I'm waiting for a cheaper resell.
This figure is incredible! Also you inspired me to get Crystal Dress Rem! I got her on Monday and for only $350, so I consider myself very lucky. Great video per usual.
Yes my man, I knew how much you were looking forward to this Rem ^^ glad she finally came home and is appreciated, but bright ambient lights would have made this top of top! Still the best Rem figure
The idea is kinda cool actually,but the thing is,that yeah,with that price tag,you would think they would make all the signs light up,thats like,one of the main things that pop into your head when you think of a cyberpunk aesthetic!
Honestly there should have been an option to just get Rem by herself! the background just doesn't have that neon vibe to it, and the sign doesnt light up either so that doesnt help, but Rem just looks so cute!!
@@DTTCReviews They have their Gojo and SAO figures, they are pretty normal priced so it is possible for them to not make super expensive figures. At this price i prefer resin statues, if this Rem was made by a Chinese company then it would have the lights and it would be 1/6 scale for the same price (maybe less). Figures with a base/background like this i prefer to have in bigger scales.
@@tomasc0202 If I ever find a licensed Chinese manufactuered 1/4 scale Rem statue I probably sell my kidney for it! 🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, they need to fix the pricing for this stuff... 😒
@@DTTCReviews If it was licensed it would be horrible too. Selling your kidney would indeed be needed. Tbh prefer unlicensed, costs way less, and is (if you do some research about the maker) not worse in quality. Btw there is one 1/4 scale Rem statue
@@tomasc0202 we only need one of those to function right??? 🤔 I think I've seen the 1/4 Rem you're talking about, the Demon maid one with all the effects? 😅
I really like this Rem! It would make the display awesome if the signs did light up, or at least were painted in neon colors. It’s just missing the neon glow.
Yea... Not gentle on the wallet at all! 🤣 Glad to have her in the collection despite all the negatives. Don't worry, I'll take the bullet on most Rems for everyone! 😵😵😵
Glad you got your Rem safe and sound. Personally I wasn't digging this figure so I opted out to buy her and got instead Ram and Emilia's Neon City figures. Already got Ram from Ami Ami and she is amazing, a unique graffiti skating character.
Congrats🤩🎉🎊 you have such a great collection of Rem, and I agree that her price should be low at least US$60 off🙂, but so far she is stunning. Also, that sign should be lit up.
man... i have this figure too, knowing how fragile estream figures are and expensive...I need to be careful when opening this figure. Thanks for the review! Not sure if you order the other two figures too. Not sure if the Emilia one will turn out well
I have to give eStream a B+ for effort, but honestly I prefer your other Rem's more. The Hanfu and new beBox one you opened are probably my favorites that I can recall. I love the new set up you do now by the way. I think it works great from my perspective. Anticipating that room tour.
Haha thanks, the new setup takes a bit longer to setup but I'm glad it's well received! 😅 This Rem doesn't rank that high in my collection either. I Hage many others I prefer too! The room tour this year should be fun because I've moved around a ton of things... 🙃
Hmmm I'd say if you want better quality control, price, and colours then go with Demon Rem. If money isn't an issue then its Crystal Dress Rem everyday, Rem with a cute smile is hard to beat! 🤣
Couldn't agree more. For the price, there needs to be more. It's a cool figure but not worth it when Crystal dress rem is not only cheaper than neon city rem, but also has more impact in looks.
Thanks for the great review video! Love to see how well you captured all the details 😂 regarding the bonus item, I also ordered it through the Shibuya scramble site but with a proxy. But I received no news of the bonus item yet. Have u received the bonus item for your neon city Rem figure yet? 😊
Congratulation on adding to your waifu collection! 🎉 Agree with you for that price point, all the signs should definitely light up and the weapon would be more elaborate. I yet to own an estream figure (but I will go for their Albedo at some point) so just my two penny from their releases so far: I feel like they are trying to find the right balance, between costs/profit margin and how much of the figure to cut back on from their earlier releases. Personally I thought the crystal/dress releases was a good arc and for their prices at that point, good value for money in the longer run. But some of their latest releases (such as the jujutsu kaisen) are less spectacular imo, less of that wow factor. I personally wish they stick to the premium route as they have envisioned and don’t cheap out on their deliberations. I am still eager to see their future figure developments but find them for now, imbalanced and still not too consistent.
Haha thanks! There's so many Albedo coming out lately so no rush on securing one! 😁 Hopefully, one day we'll look back on eStream coming in and disrupting the industry as a positive! 😂
@@DTTCReviews yea I just emailed them asking for a quote. If it’s 100 or less I’ll get it, otherwise I’ll just wait for her august Chinese dress figure.
@@DTTCReviews Thanks a lot 😀 in Toytards theres a POP Max Doffy how much do u think the import charge for that one? Sorry for asking a lot new collector here
@@nealvillegas30 Toytards is Canadian, so the price is as well! No import for you then, but if you're local to Vancouver they also have a pick up option! 😆😆😆
Awesome concept and design but the execution was kinda mid. But at least all sides of the base was painted though. (Mai PTSD). Also wish the lights weren't a PO bonus too. I've yet to own an eStream/SS figure. The one I PO-ed was delayed from Oct to Dec. Hope she turns out well~ 🙏🏻
Looks underwhelming next to the crystal dress for sure, considering she was like 10k jpy more as well. The pics make it look like there is a lot more volume and stuff on the base, but it's quite compact.
Considering the price, I'm still a bit disappointed. To charge that much for 1 figure, I will give it pretty heavy scrutiny, and it's shame. If the sign did light up like APEX's Ninguang from Genshin (and is 12k yen cheaper), then I could have been more forgiving, but even then, 42k is I think just too hard of a pill for most people to swallow.
Wow that’s an expensive Rem. I thought the blue chain of the morning star was wire for LED when I saw it in the blister packaging. Well it is pretty. But way beyond my price point. Now that travel is possible again, I have to cut my figures budget 😢
I think that for something called Neon City, this figure, overall, is too dark. For that asking price, they definitely should have incorporated some led lights to brighten things up. The Ram figure, just by her colors alone, seems to have more "pop". Still, as always, Rem herself is super cute.
Personally, I don't think she is worth this price tag and I prefer the Bebox Rem waaaay over this one. But who am I to criticize after recieving my $500+ Suzuka just recently. But she is at least a 1/4 and is now my most favorite figure (but she also had minor issues, not gonna lie) in contrast to your Neon City Rem, but I guess Waifu is Lifu! XD Kinda wasted opportunity with the neon signs but what can one do..🤷As for me, I'm not tempted to buy any estream figure anytime soon with the medicore quality that I see on their figures.
the prices... at this point I guess Imma look for a boyfriend that has these figures already lol was really interested in neon city Rem but that price is like a whole flight to Japan or something haha
@@DTTCReviews oh and btw out of these 3 REM Figures I like the Neon City one the most because not so much is going on ,it looks simple and more realistic, not overly cute nor overly bright/colorful, not too wide/big with too much dress and crystal stuff flying around, basically not too anime~ish haha
ngl, ram and emilia's designs were WAY better than rems. rem just looks... neutral. she looks the same as always. i feel her pose doesn't match the theme. she's just.... there. holding the Morningstar like always. kinda wish they went the extra mile like ram and emilia.
My heart just dropped when you snapped the STOP sign. The bottle should be magnetized. They need some improvement. Great video derick 💯
Haha a bit of user error... 😅😅😅 Thanks for the support as always! 🙌
