Let me continue with my ex:ride madness. Mu597 suggested to recreate this scene when I’ll be reviewing my ex:ride classical bikes.
So, when few days ago Tsumugi and Ritsu figmas arrived safely at my headquarters, I decided to do so. Between photos I will rant about ex:ride classic bikes. Why rant? Because they disappointed me>_< So~
Actually I’ve got 5 different colored classical bikes, but after unpacking and a long struggle to pose figma girls on them I regretted getting so many. They are HIGHLY unstable, even with this transparent plastic thing on the back wheel.
I spend nearly an hour making K-on girls actually sit on this tiiiiiny seat and placing their feet on the treadles properly. Remember my one-colored figma 1st year Anniversary bike from my “Holiday with Haruhi” post:
In terms of stability this cheap toy (it was originally given away for free by figma staff) is much, MUCH better!
And more: ex:ride bicycles are EXTREMELY fragile. As I noticed, all ex:ride items are made from same cheap plastic. When you’re dealing with motorcycles or Wheel walkers it’s okay, but when it comes to some thin thing like a bicycle frame, it gets really dangerous. I’m surprised I managed not to break 1 or 2 bikes by accident.
So, with this instability, my photo shoot soon ended… In this uncool way >__<
P.S. I’m not satisfied with my point-and-shoot camera anymore. Need better one. Start saving^_^
P.P.S. While I was making this post more parcels arrived. Now in addition to American bike I showed you in previous ex:ride post I have have a mini bike and a street-style set to review.
