Phat! 1/8 scale PVC Fate/Apocrypha Assassin of Black, Jack the Ripper

One of the "happy birthday myself" Figure that i bought to celebrate my 18th birthday. (=w=)/

Fate/Apocrypha are one of the many Fate series. It was originally planned to be an online game, later the idea was scrapped and the leftover material was used as a novel series.

Different from the usual Fate series concept of Battle Royale where seven summoned servant fought each other until the last one standing.

Fate/Apocrypha tell a unique battle concept where seven fought the other seven servant. A total of fourteen servant was summoned into this war! (/>w<)/

The servants are divided into two fraction, Red and Black. So they would be called "[servant class] of Red/Black" for  example,just like this figure,an Assassin of Black. (still set my eyes on the Saber of Red figure)

forgot to take the figure's box.. i'll update them later m(_ _)m
I pre-ordered this figure on my local online shop and spend a total of IDR 1.125.000.
Also, this figure was manufactured by Phat! company and distributed by Good Smile Company


Now,lets look on this loli assassin figure.. (/=w=)/
When unboxed for the first time, she comes separated with the stand, street fence, bagpack, extra hand, and some set of knife


According the the Fate series universe, Jack was summoned by Sagara Ryouma, a magus participating in holy grail war. He used her 4 pair of knife as a catalyst (dunno where the heck he got that knife) but the ritual didn't succeed as Jack didnt't answer the summoning call.

Feel that only the knife wasn't enough as a catalyst. Ryouma used Rikudou Reika,a prostitute that was living with him as a ritual sacrifice by trying to recreate a bloody murdered prostitute scene,.


But instead of being that Ryouma's servant. Jack was instead answered Reika's will for wanting to live and was summoned as her servant. After quickly getting rid off the poor magus and transfering his right of holy grail participant to Reika, she traveled along with Reika to survive and obtain the Holy Grail. She addressed herself using "us" and "we" and Reika as "mother"

Because Reika couldn't supply her with a mana, she regain her mana by directly eating other people's heart  (mostly bad guy that become her prey). Recreating again a brutal murder scene and the legend of Jack the Ripper.

Also,Jack was an odd case. Where she didn't side with either a Red or Black fraction on the war. But instead trying to eliminate every other servant.




Jack's way of clothing was quite provocative.. her clothes was mostly black colored with a white stripes, making a balanced contrast with her skin and hair and the color scheme was tuly befitting and assassin that operates on the foggy silent night at London.


i really loved her cold facial expression (>w<)/


As you can see, every part was sculpted realistically. Even the clothes looks like it was make of an leather fabric. Really good job to Phat company (b=w=)b



The street fence was separated from the stand base during the first unboxing, It was quite thin and fragile, so an extra care was needed if you don't want to accidentaly stepped or bend and broke it. ("=w=)



There's not even a small crack or gap on the hair and head! it was smoothly sculpted.


Hair line was also perfectly sculpted, i really loved the purplish white colour gradation on the hair.

(i plugged off the fence, you can see a small hole on the side of the stand base)

Not focused only on the figure, the stand base was also naturally detailed.


Even though it was make of plastic, these stand base really looks like a realistic street stone material. Especially on the small crumbled part on most side of the stand. (OwO)/


Next was the armament that this figure possess


A bagpack and sheath for storing her knife set. Sadly you can't really store her spare knife here, But you can pull out the already plugged knife handle from the sheath to give a realistic action pose.

(removed the bagpack,revealing her cute butt)

Seems like the bagpack and the figure was filled with a magnet on the inside. As you can see, there's no rope,plug hole,or anything that can be used to hang the bagpack on her back. Looks like some kind of magic (=w=)/


Just place the bagpack near her butt, and it would be pulled with a magnetic force and stick on her back. You can see the small sculpting on the bagpack center, it was made to follow the butt line so it would be fitted perfectly on the back


Next was her exhangeable weapon, a 4 pair of knife set. Consisting of 2 bigger knife, 4 normal sized knife, and 2 butcher knife. Each of them was also precisely detailed and colored.
Especially the normal sized knife, they was colored with blue-black on the right side, and purple-black on the left side. You can also see the realistic sharp edge of the knife.


Here, i try to randomly exhange the knife.



There's still one more parts that come for this figure, it was an extra hand.


You can plug off her right hand and exchange them with a non knife holding hand.


It was used to make a "wiping off the blood" pose. Maybe next time i should try to give her a blood effect by mixing some liquid, but i was too scared that the blood effect would dirty the figure and leave a mark ("=w=)


Can you see the line where i plugged off her hand? Lol, actually it was perfectly hidden thanks to the Epic sculpting. .

The white bandages below the Black Leather belt on the right arm was the zone where the figure and arm can be separated. 





With the non knife holding arm, you can see more of her cute and cold face. Again, i really loved her expression! (>w<)b

I was already liked this character since the first time i read everything about Fate/Apocrypha, so there's no regret in owning her figure, again i give two thumbs up for Phat Company and Good Smile Company for the manufacture and distributing (b=w=)b

If i can, i really wanted to collect every Fate/Apocrypha servant PVC in the future. (Hope my wallet would survive)

Well, thats all about the review from me, Thanks for spending time to read, feel free to comment,discuss and ask anything! m(_ _)m
