I've only seen one owner photo of Hino on Flickr, but it was enough to convince me that she needed to join my bunch. When she popped up in the Bargain section on Hobby Search, I ordered.
She arrived yesterday.
Yikes! It looks like someone or something tried to eat the box! Although her box was dented, the plastic window pushed in, somehow she managed not to get damaged or have anything fall out of the box, including the other stuff I ordered with her.
The color is off some, since I snapped these after work and as the sun was going down.
Under the corset, her dress is strapless. The necklace must have been flipped around so the charm was in back in the promo shots because none of them show the necklace has a charm on it.
Here's a closeup of the corset. It closes in the back with Velcro. The row of gold beads at each shoulder is rigid and there is also a loose loop of chain with it.
The stockings are a full set of tights, not just long socks. Her shoes are dark olive green and rather loose with these stockings. It seems like an odd color choice, but whatever.
I had very low e ectations for the wig. It came separated into 4 strands and I attempted to combine them like it was shown in the promo photos.
I don't know if this section of hair came loose or is supposed to be like this. There's also some visible glue in the wig along the front hairline. All I can say is I plan to rewig her.
She also comes with this hair ornament on a bobby pin.
Ah, look at that lovely face. Her eyebrows remind me of type 1 Carol.
And here she is in a Leeke wig in the Groove Coney Island outfit set. She looks so much better!

She is beautiful! I like her blushy pink eye shadow and she has some adorable bottom lashes.
I agree about her shoes, brown ones to match the corset would be much better.

I still really like her blue dress, but I have to admit, it wouldn't be hard to replicate. I'm glad you like her, and I'm glad she's not tempting me. I really can't wait to see what you rewig her with. That might make her tempting.

Oh I don't know her stock outift is so sweet.
It looks so cheap on the promo pics, but it is really cute.
Her Face up is so soft and innocent.

Ahh, beautiful! What a pretty faceup I love the pink around her eyes.
But yikes what the hell; did someone stamp on the box? -_- Thank goodness she wasn't damaged!

Hnmm I'm still not sure about Hino, I'm happy you made these pictures!
Not fond of her stock outfit at all, but I do love her face up, it looks very very sweet!
Can't wait to see her rewigged

Thanks for sharing these pics, CB. Her eyelashes remind me of a cross between Amarri's and Cornice's!

I found I had the perfect wig for her in my stash, a leftover that hadn't found a head yet from the Denver Doll Leeke wig sale last year. Not only does it pass the eyebrow test, but it's somewhat similar in style to her stock wig. I managed to get home in time to give her a redress, take some more photos, and I even had time to have her get hit on by Veer. More photos to come soon.

Well, I'm looking forward to the latest pics, c'mon! (What do you have a life or something?!)
I love wigs without bangs myself, and I love the braiding, so it is a disappointment that they couldn't do a better job with it. She's very pretty, but not much more than that to me. The corset seems like an afterthought, and not so coordinated. I think the dress with necklace is enough, I would use the corset with something else.
FEEDBACK
La la la, I don't know. The world forget... Feel like so!
Life's too short for ugly dolls!

As I feared, now she's tempting. Great job putting her look together.
