Ok, I didn’t get to it yesterday due to my obligations to PLAYING MY PS3!!! Which is awesome. Needs background downloading, but I can’t think of much else. It’s all minor stuff that I end up forgetting about. Anyway, try to follow along for this one, because there’s a lot of shit in this thing. I got some other news after this. And an awesome trailer you won’t want to miss, so stick around for a while.

Figures

  • First up, let’s point out HappySoda’s review of Max Factory’s sexy Caren(or with a K if you like) Ortensia. He doesn’t know much about her, and if he likes her, that’s probably for the best. She gets raped. A lot. But she’s a nice lady. To a fault. It’s likely because of her special ability to feel the pain of any person who gets possessed and is near her. Yep. Rape.
  • Next are three sets of trading figures in the 3D Design Figure line. First up, from the lovely game Aoi Sora no Neosphere. They’re out in February for 7,000 yen per 10 piece 1BOX. The other two are from Chokotto. First is the “premium” box, which is 2,000 yen cheaper than the 10 piece 1BOX. The premium box is 5,000 yen and you do the math on the 1BOX. They’re out in March and they’re all OH SO CUTE!
  • To start things off right, here’s a freaky and ill proportioned Shana posable. Really, who needs this stuff? Cheap crap. This one will run you an astonishing 15,750 yen in February.
  • Got a couple of Gundamy RAHDX figures come your way from Megahouse. They look ok, though Megahouse could do better. First up you have Allenby Beardsley looking way better than the anime in her tight fitting outfit. This is the better of the two. The uglier, and plainer, is Tiffa Adill. She is just sort of boring looking. Both are out in February for 4,200 yen. Not too bad for a Gundam heroine fan. If I got any names wrong, let me know.
  • Hey Good Smile, what’s that you have there? Oh, a sexy Meido Saber on a faux-wood base? I could get used to this sort of thing. Excellent facial expression on this one. She’s 215mm tall. She’s out in March for 4,800 yen.
  • You know you wanted some Shinkansen attendant ladies. Admit it! Well, there’s an 8 piece 1BOX coming out in March for 4,200 yen. How’s about that? The picture doesn’t say much about the figure quality though.
  • If you’re looking for something in the UFO Princess Valkyrie arena, then you might want to check out this Valkyrie repaint. She’s 200mm tall, 1/6 scale, and will be out in March for a… scant(?) 6,279 yen.
  • President Japan has this cute looking Elwyn from Shining Tears… and she comes in what looks like cloth clothing. That, to me, means it’s removable and that and the kick ass bow make this 1/8 scale elf of hotness worth the 5,040 yen price tag.
  • Brace yourself! We’ve go Mon-sieur Bome doing a dynamic pose! This one is Yamamoto Isoroku (yes, exactly like the WWII Fleet Admiral). Compared to some of the other Isorokus I’ve seen, this one could use a bit of work, but still looks good and definitely screams BOME, if that’s your things. She’s out in February, all 230mm of her, for 5,775 yen.
  • I don’t even really know what the hell this is, but I’m just going to skim over it without reading it. Out in April for 15,750 yen.
  • MOEYO DOG! His head comes off! LOLOLOL! 2,940 yen in December.
  • And I will ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY be getting one of each of the Rin and Saber hand puppets!! MOEMOEMOEMOEMOE! They are 2,940 yen each this December.
  • Well, hello there Kokobunji Koyori-chan. Were you working hard to clean up just for me? You don’t have to be embarrassed. AWWW YEAH. Ahem. 1/7 scale, 140mm tall, and 13,860 yen this January. God bless Nurse Witches.
  • Speaking of Nurse Witches… MOEMOE EROERO KOMUGI-TAN!! (semi worksafe?) I love Komugi the best. And she’s the same price in January… she stands 230mm tall though. Someone get me this for my birthday.
  • Here’s a nice looking 1/8 scale Tsukino who seems to be saying “Hey, see what you’re never gonna get? Yeaaah. Never gettin’ this.” But my doujin collection tells me otherwise. It’s getting bad for me, isn’t it? *sigh* 5,229 yen in April.
  • Oh, Louise-kun… how much do I wish your show still went on. Oh well, I will comfort myself with figures then. This 190mm tall entry from Kotobukiya looks well enough carved, and it has some nice details by way of the book and wand. Everyone loves figures with more than a pose and a base. 5,040 yen this March.
  • Moving along the Kotobukiya train, we’ve got ol’ sloppy tits from Pia Carrot he Youkoso 2. Good ol’ sloppy tits. Rumi is sporting her Meido Type outfit and looking genki as ever. She’ll be out in March for 4,410 yen.
  • MORE FUCKING EVA FIGURES?! GAAAH! Rei dressing in likely the oddest combination of things I’ve ever seen. Strapless bathing suit, high heels, and an umbrella. Thanks, Koto. She’s 190mm tall, out in March and costing 3,990 yen.
  • Moving along, we have another ToHeart2 figure, and this time it isn’t Tama-nee!!! I KNOW! I WAS SHOCKED TOO! It’s a rather awkward looking (not in a cute way) Komaki Manaka. And she’s even taken out her hair clip! What the hell, people? This is not how you capture Komaki’s innocent essence. Shame on you Koto. Out in February for 6,090 yen and 145mm tall from her knees. Meh.
  • Here’s another of those Iroha figures from Daiki Industry. Not sure if this is a repaint, but I feel like it’s a very familiar figure. She’s 1/6 and they’re calling her 210mm tall. Out in February for 8,160 yen. Most of that price is cleavage.
  • That Polygonia Mikuru I mentioned last week has hit. It will be a PVC and it will come in two paint styles, a standard version and a heterochromatic dark version. They’re 1/6 scale and stand 260mm tall and will be made of PVC. Not good news for that one legged pose. OH WELL! They’re out in February for 7,560 yen each. YAY!
  • Moeart Collection’s got some preview stuff up for a… unique looking 009-1 figure. it comes in.. two versions? Not sure. I guess it will have swappable outfits. I didn’t read the advert. But her giant ass can be yours in February for the low, low price of only 7,140 yen. Yessir.
  • Lastly, a couple of Chokotto Sister individual figures. Both are of Choco of course. The first is the Soda Ice version. It’s a delicious Japanese treat. Like oral sex from young girls. Also comes with stupid hat. Second is the nekomimi version, the focus here being the falling-off dress. Might be removable as well. Not sure. Both of these meh figures are out in January for 5,229 yen. Yep. That’s about all there is to it.

And that’s actually it. Man that took fucking forever. I have some other news coming up in a bit. Don’t rush me damnit!!! Enjoy these tons of figures until then. SOMEONE THANK ME, DAMNIT! I NEED ATTENTION! Haha.

Damn @ 009-1. Wish she wasn’t such a big ‘step’… other than that the figure seems to look exactly like 009-1 in the anime (bootylicious).

Now that’s a list of great proportions at least.

That Shana, did she have a frying pan in the face or what? And with that price tag, nevah! Not that it was even remotely possible with that crap quality.

-_- noo~ Komugi, that price tag, not good news.

Chronos:
WE MUST!! It IS for Komugi-tan after all.

kacpy:
Maybe it’ll look nice when they get some paint on it. I am holding FINAL judgment for that. >.>

I wish Komugi were a bit cheaper. I remember that there was a resin kit for that figure. I could’ve sworn that the prices for the kit and the figure were about the same…

I thought the Popsicle Choco figure was pretty cute. I’ll have to pick that up sometime. I love the manga.

That Louise figure is just a re-run of it. Guess it was popular enough for Kotobukiya to make more. Though I also noted that Yujin’s Suigintou is getting a re-run, but judging from the pictures, it looks like they improved it.

In this one, she has knee joints rather than having her legs plugged in and she is holding a rose as opposed to a feather.

wWw a devilman lady figurine!!! That’s so random, i started reading that manga during the summer holidays ~ man that freaked me out @_@. Thanks for links to all the figurines! I think the Choko one is cute :)

November 28th, 2006

haha, Hazel thanked me. *bow* I am in your debt.

Adun: I saw that stuff. I forget half the stuff I post but I remembered Suigintou and I was in a little bit of a hurry, so I just skipped over her. Haha. :D
