Inori Yuzuriha Nendoroid

YoU — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 18:51:06 +0000

One of our favorite TV Anime series Guilty Crown ended last month, leaving us lots of questions unanswered. Shortly after the ending, we learned that there would be an short OVA of the series bringing us more insights into the background of the series, i.e., the story of Lost Christmas. One more thing that we know is, there will be tons of related goods of the series coming right around the corner, and today, let’s take a look at one of my favorite, the Nendoroid version of Inori Yuzuriha. From Good Smile Company, the Nendoroid will be available in July.You can pre-order on HobbySearch, Play-Asia, CDJapan and J-List.

Somehow the robort Funell reminds me of R2D2 from Star Wars and no, Shu is not Anakin Skywalker.

The popularity of the Vocaloid franchise is certainly not to be underestimated, which is especially true of the most recent figure release featuring the eldest sister of the Vocaloid family, Megurine Luka. The stunning detail and unique design is modeled after the illustrations of famous artist, Tony Taka—whose designs were also employed in the making of the preceding Hatsune Mike figurine—and manufactured by Max Factory. This 1/7 scale, 9.1 inch figure sports a lovely sexy pose as well as an impressive array of modeling techniques, from her flowing, translucent hair to the fluid motion of her dress, perfectly portraying the vibrance of Luka’s character. The figure will be available in July of 2012 at an approximate range of 6,704 to 7,962 JPY (81.99 – 101.54 USD) and is currently available for pre-order at CD Japan, Play-Asia and Hobby Search.

Charlotte Dunois

YoU — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 15:32:16 +0000

Not doubt Charlotte is our favorite character of TV Anime series Infinite Stratos and our previous Character Poll strongly supports the idea. We’ve seen a lot of related figures of the series but few of them gave us good impacts. Guess Alphamax is ready for this and the company is going to give us a big surprise. This is a 1/7 figure with a height of 24mm and what really impress us is the attractive design of the sweet, cute and shy Charlotte in swimwear. The figure will be released in August 2012 at around 7,200 JPY (93.80 USD). And you are pre-order at CDJapan, Play-Asia and Amazon Japan.

Mayuri Shiina Nendoroid by Good Smile Company

YoU — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 21:58:23 +0000

Good Smile Company is working on another Nendoroid, this time, Mayuri Shiina (椎名まゆり) from TV Anime and Game series STEINS;GATE. Quite a cute one but personally I preferred the Kurisu Makise one. The Nendoriod will be released next week, you can pre-order now at J-List,Play-Asia, CDJapan.

The series ended last week and we have already reported the movie announcement one day after. It’s totally a surprise. But according to the head of the producer company, the movie will not be a remake or collection of the previous 24 episodes, thus we probably could expect some fun.
