Anime Model Kits, Goods and Figures

No Sena yet?

[Ryllharu]

Sena is planned to come out in March. Don't worry, there will be more fun when I get the other half of the couch and the PS3/TV that she comes with. Sena has a good upset face that I can throw on Yozora. The disappointing part is that from the photos, she likely shares the same construction (and likely many of the exact same parts) as Yozora.

The nice touch is that the two series share the same character design (the crescent-moon smiles), so they fit together as a set better than most.

Oshimizu Nako Beach Queens Ver.
Kashiwazaki Sena Beach Queens Ver.

Has the Beach Queen line been getting better?? 0_o

Or is it character bias?

I think it has actually been getting better. The Yozora one is very good as well. As is the Naruko (Anohana). Overall, the line is still not very good, but there have been some really good ones recently. Perhaps they finally got some good sculptors who know how to do faces?

I'm not really a collector of anime figures, but I might have to get this one:



Saw the article over at Sankaku, but since everyone else has been linking Hobby Search, I figured I'd do the same.

Celty Sturluson Alter Ver.

[Buffalobiian]

Any site, if at all, is cool Al.

I've liked hobbysearch myself because it provides additional pics, decent pricing and an easy website to work with if anybody wanted more info.

Miku Hatsune : Cheerful Ver.

The final product in the Cheerful JAPAN! charity project is a 1/8th scale figure based on the winning illustration from the Cheerful JAPAN! feat. Miku Hatsune Cheerful Illustration Contest.
The illustration was titled 'Cheer Up!!', and was illustrated by bun150.
She is wearing a cheerful cheerleader's outfit, and has a huge smile across her face to help spread the cheer all over the world!

For each figure sold, Good Smile Company will be donate 2000JPY to aid the relief efforts in Japan.



Orders can be placed between 9th March 2012 (Fri) from 11:00 until 28th March 2012 (Wed) at 20:00. (JST).

Probably the most captivating figure I've seen for a good while now. I feel like pre-ordering. A lot.

Despite when I also want 2 more textbooks and an external DAC too.

Someone convince me not to buy these. Yes, they are sold separately, and yes, the fuzzy base comes with one of them, Kobato's, by the look of things. Maria comes with a different base, but one that is also roomy enough for the Kobato to fit on.

EDIT: Alas, too late. The more I looked at them, the stronger the temptation. Pre-ordered.

So now: Convince me to cancel that pre-order.

[Buffalobiian]

Wait, you did what Ryll?

We were just talking about how inappropriate they looked on IRC...

(mainly Kobato)

I know Beach Queens are only two-thirds of the price, but if they all looked as good as this they'd be selling like hotcakes. I dunno.. do they sell like hotcakes?

Not familiar with the series, but I do like the paintjob.

I'm so getting this one.

If the folks at work see that, Ryll, they will drop your security clearance. Or perhaps they will take Sakura as a hostage, to prevent you from ever spilling any beans.

Which one? :3

- who is the girl next to Selvaria?
-New cabinet? I remember you weren't too fond of having figures unboxed and requiring dusting.
-Poor Sora gets no chair.
- I too see the jailbait duo made it to you house safely.

- who is the girl next to Selvaria?

Shenhua from Black Lagoon.

-New cabinet? I remember you weren't too fond of having figures unboxed and requiring dusting.

Indeed, I do hate to dust. Note the glass doors on either side. Should mitigate most of the problem.

-Poor Sora gets no chair.

She does not deserve to sit on the couch. I put the angry face on her.

- I too see the jailbait duo made it to you house safely.

With much shame, they are on display.


Speaking of Selvaria, I'm actually tempted to put Ika Musume in a mocking pose of her. With her tentacles, it would actually look fairly convincing.

Given the TM fanbase here, I figured someone would be interested in these.

[Ryllharu]

No Sakura, no Rider, no Caster, no Akiha, no Kohaku, no Azaka, no Caren...not even a Sajyou Ayaka.

How decidedly dull.
