Labrys Parfom

I got Labrys last week, but I didn’t sit down to play around with her until now. She’s an improvement over Aigis, so it makes me even more sad that Phat abandoned this line, they’re perfect!!

She is full of small scuffs/paint transfers due to being boxless and second hand (I got her for $15, so no complains here!) so I can’t comment on QC since I don’t know how her previous owner received her.

I won’t go over her accessories much because she's missing her fire props and I got the others stored somewhere else (too lazy to grab them rn), but here are my general thoughts on her!

I usually start with what I dislike about the figure, but I need to gush about her hair!!

Look at how flowy her ponytail is, to not to speak about the shading. Aigis’ hair was already great (even better than Phat’s Aigis scales lmao), but they improved over it with Labrys thanks to the addition of shading. Honestly it's almost scale-level imo

I will continue talking about her hair then. Her headset moves up and down, and its wings attach to it lightly, so they can be moved freely as well. Her ponytail also moved up/down and slightly to the side. All of these 3 can be posed individually, they have different joints.

Her face is all well printed as Aigis, she’s adorable! She comes with a smiling face (the one she’s wearing currently) and angry face, along with a hair piece with her visor down and an extra face for Aigis (similar to her neutral one, but looking at the front rather than sideways).
She has silver paint around her metal pieces, but they aren’t as shimmery as Aigis’ gold pieces.

Her body and face look perfect, but there are a few things I dislike. First, her arm detaches so you can insert her chain accessory, but it comes out way too easily. It makes it kinda hard to pose her.
Only her right arm is this loose, so I wonder if it was due to the previous owner or if she was like this already.

Then, the arm joints look bad. Why did they pick blue!? Her head peg bothers me as well. She was a wider range of movement compared to Aigis, she is able to look up and fully down, but to make her able to do this they gave her a giraffe neck and a peg that looks like it’s about to come out.

Her joints overall aren’t polished. I thought mine was like this due to the previous’ owner not taking care of her properly, but looking at other pics it seems she’s like this. Which surprises me because they took lots of care in Aigis’ joints and they’re beautiful (specially her leg ones), but most of Labrys’ one look dented.
It also bugs me that her metal knee doesn’t sit completely in the socket.

I think those are all the negative points. Back up, the red part of her arms are made of a different material (very smooth and shiny), same as her feet. Her hands can’t move due to the armour, but since the arm itself can rotate it isn’t a big problem.

Her shoulders move up/down (Aigis can as well, but it’s way less noticeable) and her arms/legs have pretty much the same range of movement as Aigis, but it’s way easier to move them in Labrys, for Aigis you had to force it a bit to reach the max range.

I thought her skirt would difficulty movement, but they made it so it sits on her hip rather than being a piece attached to her shirt, so her legs move with no problems since it wiggles a bit.

Since the skirt moves a bit, it creates the illusion of a 2nd torso joint, so it makes Labrys a biiit more poseable than Aigis.

Oh, and they took great care of her mechanical parts despite them being hidden by the skirt 70% of the time! Great news for us mechabare enjoyers. Her little feet can more too!

Honestly they put so much effort on her tiny details I still can’t comprehend why did they do her joints that dirty.

Almost forgot, her axe is amazing! It’s 20cm long and is poseable! It can be attached to her bask as well, but I haven’t figured out how yet.

The chain for her flying hand can be moved as well (it’s not a real chain, but the plastic it’s made of is kind of malleable)

And I think that sums up everything! She is a bit taller than Aigis, standing at around 13,5cm (1cm taller than her sis). Which may not seem much, but it’s very noticeable when you put them side by side!

Due to being short and unable to look up, Aigis can’t kiss her lmao. Next to it is how I got them posed currently. Her previous owner wasn’t very nice to her, but I’m so happy of finally having Labrys on my hands, she’s too adorable 💙💙

This Labrys came with another Aigis, which means I can create.... interesting poses now. But I also kind of want trying to mod it into Metis or #024, I’m very glad this short-lived line gave me not one, but 2 persona characters, but I would like a few more!
