Its been a while since I stuffed over 100 photos in an article. The last time I done so was when the photos were hosted on dannychoo.com - the server would always go down due to the load.
Now that all article photos are hosted on my Flickr account, I can stuff more photos in one article but need your feedback on loading times and whether you had any problems viewing.
Anyway, starting off with this kit of Sanya-chan.

Anyway, starting off with this kit of Sanya-chan.
Was my first visit to a Hobby Complex. Expected to see a lot especially because I heard that GK sellers wanted to display at Hobbycon due to the lack of a Wonfes next year.
While they did have a lot on display, a lot of it was stuff we had already seen in previous Wonder Festivals (all previous coverage here).
Would usually have taken quite a few photos but just mainly snapped stuff we have not seen before.
Before you scroll down any further, I forgot to mention that this article contains many NSFW photos.

Was interesting to see that many of the dealers were handed out "Under 18's cannot purchase" notices and green stickers which were used on the figures Op Pie. While vendors at the Wonder Festival were encouraged to do the same, looks like they were more pro active this time.
This is my most fave garage kit figure - SO RAN. Would love for this to be made into a PVC figure.
They also had a load of vendors selling PVC figures. I saw the Figma Konata in Haruhi costume for about 8,000 yen!
Enough of my babbling - enjoy the rest of the photos. A couple more Hobby Complex posts in the News Items later.

Some of the pictures didn't load at first, had to reload the page to see them. Other that that, it worked fine. Also those Strike Witches figures are lacking Eila, wich makes me sad. She didn't even make it to the trading figure series they released some time ago. Danny should use his super powers and summon an Eila nendoroid.

Do you mean the mouse sabers or the saber lily? Well, I think the saber lily will turn up on E2046 eventually, probably in their gathering line too, but it feels a bit of a shame settling with a recast of saber lily at least...

When it comes to Saber I don't think it really matters (to me at least, she's Saber!). I'd love to get both but if I'd have to choose one it'd be Saber Lily.

Pictures loaded fine. :P Surprisingly, there isn't much that caught my eye. Nothing really stands out to me except for the Lucky Star cheerleaders, and the girl in a yutaka with a fan two pictures above that. Most of them had something that bugged me - the Strike Witches' faces, for example. Another would be the Mizunashi Akari one. I assume it's a kit, but...well, I'm completely guessing here. But even this is only because there's hardly any ARIA figures out there and I'm a complete Akari fanboy. Her face seems a bit off, even if loosely based off the manga covers and not the anime.
(ID #421236) Posted on 2008/12/22 12:23
Nice coverage! Unfortunately the only real figure events I've seen in NYC is when the anime con drops by. Even that is lacking. Its just the random anime shops selling overpriced gundam models.
(ID #421240) Posted on 2008/12/22 12:30
all of them look the same as the recently released figures. i want just two - the fate saber holding a guitar one and the garrage figure you were talking about. lol at the figure with the no photos sign next to it. (you took one though)

AHH!!!! Finally, FINALLY!!! A kit of Sheryl Nome!!!! I'm assuming it's resin?? Must... Resist... On another note, it's good to see liquidstone still pumping out their poseable figures. Might use the chance to get a Nanoha to compliment my Fate. The posable fate and Aegis figures look rather good too. Saber lily and Tomoyo look pretty good too but not must buy. Dannys choice of Kazami Mizuho from Onegai Teacher was pretty good but I always preferred her subdued teacher look as opposed to her sexy look. But I guess I should be happy that there's nothing in particular that I want (except Sheryl, tho I would prefer one of her other costumes) as my funds are a little stretched, being christmas and all...
(ID #421293) Posted on 2008/12/22 13:17
I'm digging the landmates from Appleseed 23763 and 23764. I'm hoping that they arent a kit because my modeling skills are the suck, and I wouldnt want my landmate to look like crap. Is that Asuka Langley as Yoko in 23701? I'm gonna have to start saving again....

I'll get to a figure event in Japan one day though!! I know it!! Other figures I want... that Haruka... from the illustration... hair looks a tad off... and the face looks a bit weird... but you can't tell much far off. Maybe its better close up. AND the 2nd Silfa figure, first ones eyes are too big... 2nd one is doing the pose from a very cute cg from the game.

i could have gone there this year! But besides Wonderfest, I did not know of other figure events in Japan. Oh, well... There's always next year! Tons of great figures and so many things to get! Thouhg resins are not my thing, I wouldn't mind just getting a few to feel that I have participated.

Wow, some really good figures between these taken pictures, which i want to have. The two saber figures looks cute and the figure named Gwendoline with her shining wings is awesome, i think i really should get her, if there is any new chance. But why is there so much respond to Kanu ? It seems like there are thousands of Kanu versions out there, isn't there any end to it ? This is worse.

I like the Strike Witches figures, unfortunately there's just something about the faces which nags at me. I loved the little figures in the boxes ^^ and the numerous weapons would be ideal for Mikuru. I'm suprised Danny didn't buy them!

What's with the pseudo figma of Loli Nanoha? Were those conversion parts or something? And I simply loved this one http://www.dannychoo.com/adp/eng/1636/Hobby+Complex.html#image23731, does anyone know her? It's so simple that love it sooo! Because of the Nanoha fanboy that I am I loved all of her figures. The Lucky Star cheer leading squad is also good, I loved the pose of the twins XD And, yeah I can't forget about those cute moe in the box! They are so adorable!!!

Great pictures and thanks for sharing. I really like the Megaman figure. Looks great.
(ID #421906) Posted on 2008/12/23 00:30
There were so many amazing figures that I saw and wanted, but realized I could not afford. I think it would be wonderful to have an event like this in my area, but it would never happen because of the general lack of interest and the prudes that wonder object to the NSFW figures. As always, great photographs.

IT, Programmer, Otaku, ...
The picture loading goes very fast. I scrolled down after I read it, and none were loading any more. No problems here. There seem to be more and more mecha girls. Even an Eva with an actual human face under the mask. And just WHEN are they going to release decent Minami-ke figures?? It's just the bear now... Nice to see the first Sheryl Nome figure to come out, I'm hoping for more (and better) to come. Nice coverage, would love to attend a figure event. (after I went to TAF ealier this year, which was awesome, but it's so early in the year...)

The Akari one looks pretty nice, though not as great as Good Smile Company/Max factory's Alicia figure. Hope they make it into a PVC figure still or that release another great Akari figure. Photo loading times seem fine for me.

Great coverage, pics loaded fine for me :) Highlight for me is Daiki's PVC of diskvision's EVE (not pictured here but I saw her over at akibahobby), always wished she was covered up for general display and Daiki modified the kit just so.

That Tomoyo figure really is smoking hot. Too bad I don't have the dedication nor the talent to actually make a kit turn out like that.
(ID #423312) Posted on 2008/12/24 00:20
Other than the mechs and the "pie", two things: 1. I saw a version of saber lily with an oddly familiar facial structure. Done by Kenny Wong? 2. Busts?

That Akari one is a must get for me and also yay more Saber Lily. That Gwen fig from Odin Sphere looks AMAZING, too bad it's probably out of my reach. Lol they're releasing the Kuma from Minami-ke but no girls?? I want my Haruka onee-sama (along with probably all of the cast)!!!.
