I want to get this. <3

[Buffalobiian]

^ Hmm.. Busty

At the DFC end of things, this baby's finally on my desk

(I've been hunting her down for 5 months!!)

[Illrenmazou]

This is why Bandai's RD series is awesome:

[Kraco]

That's an embodiment of badass.

[Psyke]

I just got these recently



3000th post!

[Buffalobiian]

Good Smile Company's Senjougahara is up for preorders:





Also available this week, for those with bustier tastes is Sylvaria:




And just for kicks, only a few more left of Bible Black's Imari:

[darkshadow]

That Sylvaria looks pretty awesome, I'll keep it in mind for my inevitable first figure.

[Buffalobiian]

Loli Seduction!

Folks who missed out on the previous BRS editions can pre-order the Anime Version:



http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10118416

Personally, I'm not sure how I feel about the Anime Edition (partially because I haven't seen the anime where this is supposed to come from) comparative to the original, "Gothic" BRS.

The upward glance would make this one so much easier to display on a desk. The first BRS's gaze looked slightly downwards, so displaying it at anything but eye-level loses the "moment" feel.

By that, I mean one experiences the figure as a "statue" objectively, rather than seeing it as a physical capturing of a moment or snapshot. The latter is something that I feel contributes significantly to a figure's charm and overall entertainment value.

It's what makes dusting figures fun, as you look at the figures from various angles (like when you first unpacked it), reviving it from its "static" position on your display shelf.

Alter brings you Fate Testarossa -PHANTOM MINDS- (Movie Ver.)





Available at:

Hobby Search (EMS only) (50% off shipping till 15th July 2010)
Ami Ami (EMS and SAL)

I am honestly surprised I didn't automatically click that pre-order button. For some reason, this didn't quite click. There's some sort of charm that Adult Fate and Loli Nanoha were able to capture that Adult Nanoha and this latest Loli Fate weren't. It might be a pose thing, or a facial expression thing.. I'm really not sure what.

In any case, she's on hold at the moment, but I'll probably snap at some point and preorder her just because I need a Fate in the house somewhere. (Well, mainly my bedroom, but anyway...)

I'm still checking daily on Adult Fate's status (it hasn't ever been restocked. Ever! )

[Buffalobiian]

Se no~




Nadeko should be able to be pre-ordered in the near-ish future, but that's the preview for now.



I was looking forward to this Nendoroid Yuki, but the end result didn't turn out as well as I anticipated.
She had a different scarf and coat colour in my head when I first saw her unpainted sculpture.
Guess I'll pass on her.



On the other hand, Haruhi's painted version looks a lot better than I had expected.
I still don't intend on getting her, but if I was more of a Haruhi fan, I'm sure I would.



Meanwhile, my sights have settled on the upcoming Katanagatari Nendoroids instead.
I mainly like Shichika in this, but I may end up getting that set anyway just to have a few more around.
The Maniwani may make for some colourful and dynamic little figures too if they ever get produced.



A super-deformed, posable Saber's up for an October,
with pre-orders open already for anyone interested.

Also, BRS fans may want to know what else is getting a (re-)release this year.

[shinta|hikari]

I want those Katanagatari figures. All three of them...

I do think that the anime's artstyle greatly enhances the appeal of these characters translated into mini figures.

And I don't know how I forgot, but I left these out from the previous post:

Now you can have a Kanade on your real desktop shinta.

[shinta|hikari]

Kanade and Yuri look great.

The main character (what was his name again?) looks way too generic.

lol. Poor Otonashi's forgotten already.

[Ryllharu]

I received my Sankt Kaiser Vivio figurine in the mail today! Alter did a really good job on it. My camera hardly does it justice.

[Buffalobiian]

Ah, very nice Ryll.

I completely agree about the camera. As much as I would like to show my own photos, mostly only the promotional photos bring out how (much better) they look in real life.

Does she come with that magic orb?

[Ryllharu]

Yes, it comes with that iridescent orb, but I think it looks better without it.

[Buffalobiian]

Hobby Search has had some nice restocks/preorders over the last few weeks, including:

Sengoku Nadeko (Bakemonogatari)



Fate T-Harlaown (Nanoha StrikerS) {omg.. like finally!!}
Casual Loli ver here



Saber (Fate/Stay Night)




Suzumiya Haruhi (The Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi)



00-Raiser (Gundam 00)







I've been scooping up all these Deformed Mechas lately, like this Patlabor unit.

[Ryllharu]

I'm kind of ambivalent toward the Nadeko figure. If I was going to get a Bakemonogatari figurine, it would probably be of her, but the set with lower-legs missing looks so weird. I know you can use both, and it's supposed to mirror the cover of one of the novels or something, but it looks more like she is going through a portal rather than standing knee-deep in water.

That Saber is nice, but I've already got more Sabers than I need. Someone needs to make some good Sakura ones instead of the bland ones they have out there.


I stumbled upon this convenient site. Now I don't have to take pictures of everything I've got.
