Figurine collectors get your wallets ready because the team over at E2046 have unveiled their adorably crafted figurine of Flandre and Remilia Scarlet from the Touhou Project.
Touhou Project is an arcade style bullet hell shooter that is developed by a one-man team known as Team Shanghai Alice.
Some information about these two adorable vampires:
Remilia Scarlet is a vampire with incredibly strong magical capability. She appears to be of European origin, all indicated by her appearance and clothing in-game and claims to be a descendant of Count Vlad Tepes or as best known as Dracula. She’s incredibly self-centered and tends to be childlike. Alike all other vampires, Remilia is weakened by sunlight and carries a parasol during the day to be able to freely move around.
Flandre Scarlet is a vampire with incredible physical strength. She is the younger sister of Remilia Scarlet. Due to her bipolar personality and destructive capability, she’s ordered by Remilia to stay in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She has stayed in their mansion for nearly 500 years and knows little to nothing about the outside world.
It’s difficult to say anything negative about this figurine. At first, it seems a little plain due to white being the main color but it radiates a sense of innocence and playfulness because of it. This pose also exudes a sense of playfulness because the older sibling embraces the playful younger sibling with open and seemingly caring arms. Ironically, for sexualized demon shrine girls, a strong sense of innocence is portrayed here.
From this point of view, we’re able to fully appreciate what this figurine has to offer. From the beautifully delicate looking dresses to the old decaying tree, all of these fine details come together to present something that nabs your attention and will not let go.
Unfortunately, there isn’t much to say from this point of view. Although not much is happening from the backside of Remilia, it should be noted that the team over at E2046 didn’t slack on any of the detailing from any angle. Also, Remilia’s little bat wings are extremely cute.

Personal remark:
I usually try to exclude personal opinions but I cannot with this figurine. I find this to be my personal favorite of the E2046 works. Despite my little knowledge of the Touhou Project, I find this figurine to be absolutely stunning. I was speechless at first but after staring a bit, I managed to formulate some thoughts. I love everything about this figurine, from the composition to detailing, all of it left me impressed. The usage of white is somewhat difficult; it’s a rather dull color but when applied properly, it becomes a focal point, grabbing attention. In this case, it grabs your attention and exudes an aura. The old looking tree assists the overall presentation due to it showing the contrast between the girls and itself — simply, it makes the dresses and the girls pop out.
