I was finally able to get a hold of Manatee Industry's Arina. A beachgoer with a removable swimsuit.
This appears to be the 'small bust' version of the Hon Body that was sold for a short time as a body only. Though compared to that release it feels like the fit and finish on her is just a little better. Most notably, there seems to be more use of painted skin blush on places like the knees and belly button. Arina has a smaller chest compared to the standard large bust body that seemed to be used in the previous releases. It also seems like they used a different sculpt for the lower legs below the knees, making her a little taller (even without the clogs)
Props to Manatee Industry for now including an extra wrist joint. They also give Arina a large (by figma standards) set of 5 faces, plus the 2 extra faces for the previously released Eimi. I don't have her but it seems to show that the company is wanting to put it's best foot forward for people buying their product. The Eimi faces CAN fit on Arina but it's obvious that the head sculpts are different, so it'll look strange. Another note on faces - seeing pictures of the face decal detail in photos made them look bad - but in person they do look nice enough. I believe it's the very fine lines used for the lower eyelid and iris outline that tends to just get lost when a photo gets taken, making the eyes just look blurry. Finally, I was a bit surprised at the shading detail they bothered to put in the sunhat. Luckily it can just be put onto any head that can accommodate it.
