GoodSmile will soon be taking orders for this Figma Konata as part of the Wonder Festival festivities. Not sure if you will be able to get her at your regular online dealers though.
No release date or price details yet.
Am I the only person here who didn't watch Lucky Star?

Nice looking figure from the one pic I can see though. Looks pretty good for being pose-able. Usually I don't like them.

Cool figure but definitely would be better as just a static figure cause the joints look lame

Cool fig! Except for the legs, which look a bit on the prosthetic side... But hey, can't be too picky at this point.

How can you take yourself seriously in this business without having watched Rucky Star? :(
Good thing you posted the figure though :) Konata is awesome! :D

- Konata can move her fingers

What I thought too...
The figure would be quite a horrible face if the mouth could be opened and closed (two big slits on each side of the mouth)...

I'd rather have a normal figure rather than revoltech/action figure... but at this point I'm accepting anything. :P
What I would really really love is a Konata figure in "Timotei" pose. XD
Or that pose where she's playing a PS2.

yes danny you got to be the last otaku on earth who haven't watch lucky star. ^^,
do watch it, it's highly recommended. it has references to otaku culture, haruhi and games.
initially when i watch the few episodes i don't really like it but slowly it grows on me. ^^,

hmm,
The fraulein revoltechs look better and more natural but figmas have more interesting characters in the line (Nanoha!!!!)
pretty tough to choose between the 2 products.
As for Konata, i prefer the nendroid Fate stay/night cosplay figures which they will have at WF.

A Haruhi- and a Konata figure in one, now that's a bargain. xD
But I'm not a big fan of figures with joints either, this one looks cute through...
I wonder if there will ever be a diorama of Tsukasa feeding cookies to rendeers. That would be awesome! xD

That Figma Konata looks awesome!
Usually I don't like figures with joints, but this one is an exception ^^;
I'm really surprised you haven't watched Lucky Star Danny. Do watch it and I guarantee you won't regret it, especially if you're a hardcore otaku because Konata is an otaku herself, so there's a lot of otaku reference in it.
The show is really funny and it grows better and better towards the final episode, the pure randomness is awesome!

When is Wonderfest BTW?
Info: WonderFest 2008 Winter exclusive. Limited to 5,000 pieces for the event. It will also be available for preorder after the event through GSC online store with quantities made according to total number of orders received.
Wasn't that just for the Nendoroid Lucky Star Fate cosplay set?

That's odd then.
The picture used on Tokyo Hunter is the one from GSC for the Konata figma and that's what he's even stating in the details.

That's a very nice figure (and poseable). I like her different facial expressions (except one, but the others are good).
But I would love to have a good Konata figure as well (not poseable). Can't wait ^^;

No, your not the only one.
I watched the first ep. and found it pretty boring and childish, but it's a matter of taste of course ^^
This figure looks nice even with the joints. But I don't like articulated figures so i'll wait for other ones...
Have my eye one those ones, hope they'll be available pre-painted, check them out (Konata and Kagamin figures) here:
