Eh, it's not that bad. I could see that being worth $13, including the functionality. If you want good looking figure, then you'll just have to get a real one.

I wanted to get a statue of Samus for my shelves and I found this one. As a long time Metroid fan, it makes me angry and kind of sick. Samus should be like this. She's a kick ass, self-reliant, no-nonsense, take no prisoners bounty hunter with a massive chip on her shoulder and enough firepower to MURDER ENTIRE PLANETS. I hate how Samus has been sexualized recently (I couldn't get through Other M even after I downloaded a new game+ file that let me skip cutscenes). I think it might be related to the fact that Metroid has always been a popular series in the west, unlike the other Nintendo franchises, which are either equally popular in Japan and the west or outsell in Japan. The developers see "popular in the US" and "sexualized" as the same.

Before the apparent overhaul of the series with Other M, Samus was a clinical hardass. We only rarely got glimpses of her humanity in moments like the beginning of Prime 2, when she gently closes the eyes of a dead space marine. Look at the end of Metroid 2 and the opening of Super Metroid. The baby Metroid attached to her as a mother, and the only thing she did was let it lead her out of SR388 and then handed it over to the Federation scientists for dissection and research. Now, every other word out of her (supposed to be silent) mouth is BABY BABY BABY.

tl;dr - longtime Metroid fangirl raves on the internet about how people on the other side of the world changed her favorite character

I understand your frustration, but this is really just a $13 mini-figure that works with games. If you want a top quality Samus figure, I'd get GSC's Figma :) http://www.amazon.com/Good-Smile-Metroid-Action-Figure/dp/B00712Y28Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421892048&sr=8-1&keywords=samus+figma

Figmas are small but very fun and very poseable.

I didn't really get anything geeky, but I got a $25 GameStop gift card that I'll probably put toward Bravely Default, since I've got pretty much all the Wii U games I could want right now. I bought a few Steam games yesterday as well. Chief among them was XCOM: Enemy Unknown, which I've been dying to play, but my laptop hates it. Will try it on the desktop.

I do have a Visa gift card from my parents with about $60 left on it and I am considering either the Samus Figma or the Wind Waker Link Nendoroid. I really want Link but I feel like I have too many Links, as I also have the Link Figma and the Link amiibo and I preordered the Toon Link amiibo. But so cute! Gah, I am torn.

Sry I'm late with this reply but, here you go. Cheaper than what I paid to import the figure.

How is the quality? I'm sure you can't position it like a figma but is it at least decent?
