Very cute figure of Yukari Morita spotted at the Wonderful Hobby Life for Wholesalers & Retailers event. They need to think of a shorter name for that event ^^;
Never did get round to finishing off Rocket Girls but after seeing this figure am thinking of picking it up again - any thoughts on the anime?
Figure production is being handles by Kotobukiya and will be released by Chrono Gate. Price has not been decided but will be released next Jan.
Cute!

I saw the first two episodes raw, as the subbers were late getting to it. Your post reminded me that I should download it now that it's been completely subbed.

Not sure if this figure is worth my yens, but it sure is pretty~

Never watched Rocket Girls before but this figure is pretty cute. Has lots of photoshooting potentials as well so will be on my buy list ^^;

Hope they fix some of the cast marks.

Cool figure! I like the backpack and the rocket. Looks pretty nice.

May be going to Cape Canaveral in a few months, this is the perfect figure to bring along and shoot with there.

Looks kinda fun looking at the OP :)
Might pick it up as well, I'm watching so much lately...

Figure is quite cute as well :)
They do seem to like putting that seam on the head lately on figures.

  I stopped watching it my self, it had a slow start. I may start watching agian my self, I see it pop up on  my website Animetreehouse.com 's anime fansub new release list on a regular basis. Some one is fansubbing it still, so I'm guessing it was never licensed here in the U.S. 
  After seeing that figure I think I'll try it out again!

I'd buy this.  It looks like a great figure and the anime series looks cool too.

I like rocket girls. The series was completely subbed so I'm working my way through. I'm on ep 10 of 13 at the mo.
The goofyness of the early stages reminded me of Stratos 4, which I also liked but it never got to the level of seriousness of stratos 4.

The figure looks pretty decent too, but i think it's a bit too sexy for morita, so it's a little out of character...

Whatever sells tho...

Yukari looks cute, but I don't like her nose when viewed from the side. She's not my buy list at the moment, will wait for more pictures when she's released.

You could call it WohHoLiWhoRe. Whoh-hoe-lie-who-re. Sounds like a mouthful until you say it sorta fast, then it kinda has a neat ring to it. :d


Anyways... She's cute, but I'm not too fond of her expression.

All the heroines in Rocket Girls are very sexy and kinky! The art and animation is pretty good as well. I really enjoyed that cute and fun series about three teenage girls going into space. Recommend!
