Anime StatuesContinuing on from yesterdays hobby show for traders.
First off is a figure I'm most looking forward to - Unity Yuno from the eroge Unity Marriage - A Good Smile release. See her in action below.
Figma and NendoroidToday I was invited over by Good Smile Company to the figure event for traders and sellers that’s held after each Wonfes.
Today we are going to take a look at some of the Figma’s and according to comrade Shimazou at Hobby Stock, some of these Nendo...
YotsubaMore pictures from the WHL.
I dont know much about Yotsuba so not sure why everybody seems to be going crazy over her (I presume its a her? ^^;)
Toy EventsUp next is the figure stuff from the chara hobby.
I like Noiji Ito-sans work and liked the look of Nanatsuiro Drops but Sumomo's character put me off from watching any further than ep1. Some baka girls are cute but she seemed a bit too baka ^^;
Rocket GirlsVery 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 ^^;
Wonderful Hobby LifeI was invited by Good Smile Company together with Akibablog and Moeyo.com to a figure event called "Wonderful Hobby Life for Wholesaler & Retailers."
The event was set up for folks in the figure industry to talk business and is not open to the p...
GundamNext up is the Gundam stuff from Chara Hobby.
This is a coolsome Musha Gundam mod at the Hobby Japan booth. Always feeling like playing Gundam Musou whenever I look at this.
Code GeassNext up is the Code Geass stuff from Chara Hobby.
Been waiting for a decent figure of Kallen and here she is ready to be painted. Will let you know when pre-order info is up.
CharaHobby 2007Just under 14 mins of video coverage taken at Chara Hobby 2007 Yesterday. The first half of the video is Gundam stuff - the latter half being everything else.
Headed straight for the Gundam stuff as soon as I got in. After I was done with Gundam...
Gundam 00Next up is the new spanking Gundam 00 trailer that was previously released at the Gundam Expo. I was worried that the new series didn't have any moe girls but I spotted at least one - she also had big eyes ^^;
As you can see from the video, the qua...
Shuraki RizfisEnding the Wonfes 2007 Summer coverage with Shuraki box set 5 - Rizfis Luttiva Mente. Just noticed how all the Shuraki sets up until now are women with weapons.
Armored CoreNext up are the Armored Core kits.
While a lot of us mecha fans will appreciate the good designs, I get the feeling that the majority of people who buy the kits are the ones who have actually played the games.
The interesting thing is that if I s...
Garage KitsNext is are the garage kits starting off with a figure I hope they make into a PVC - Shirley Fennette.
BTW, I didnt Mirai-mark any of these images so this post is not safe for printing out and posting up on the wall.
Anime Manga FiguresNext up is the other female figurines. This is Sakura Hime. Was out as a kit many moons ago and now it gets the PVC treatment by Yamato. I hope the quality doesn't end up like their Mine Blue.
BTW, Tokyo Hunter has uploaded his coverage.
KotobukiyaNext up is the figurines at the Kotobukiya booth. Starting off with the nicest figurine that caught my eye. She was so nice that she burnt my synapses which meant that I forgot her name ^^; She looks very ToHeart though.
Erm, "name that figure."
RevoltechNext up is the Revoltech stuff by Kaiyodo. Its interesting how Kaiyodo are the hosts of the Wonder Festival but their offerings are much less than Good Smile for example. I didn't notice any of the Bome figures on display either (or I missed them)....
Queens Blade NixDont know too much about Nix but I do know a nice figure when I see one - her "eyes" are gorgeous!
What I do know about her though is that she has her own Queens Blade illustration book. Dont like the look of that blue bob she has on the end of h...
SkygirlsI was so glad when I saw this at the Good Smile booth. Reason is because I thought that Konami was going to be doing the figures - makes sense because they also do the Anime. Never been a fan of the Busou Shinki figures. Hope the final version of thi...
Good SmileNext up is the Good Smile booth. Not only do they make great figures, they have a great company culture - more details soon ^^;
Kyon's sister. Mikuru is my fave but I think they made the Haruhi and this one look the cutest out of the Freeing bunch.
Wonfes MechaNext up is the mecha and non-female-figurine stuff. This was at the Good Smile section. Never seen Dragonar before but this looks cool.
Before I forget, Xenoblog and Roy have their coverage up.
Wonder Festival 2007 SummerI need to leave in a bit for the Good Smile offices soon so leaving you with only the 10 min video of todays Wonder Festival 2007 [Summer].
Let me know if the titles at the end of the video are cut off for you - the video seems to get stuck in Y...
Shunya YamashitaSeen pics of Rudy before but t'was the first time for me to have a good gander with me own mince pies.
Didnt think too much about this figure until the show but will now probably land on my buy list. For those who dont know, her eyes are full cast...
Figures3 figures from the show which I saw in the flesh for the first time. First up is Blanc Neige. Your guess is as good as mine as to whether the cloak can cast off or not.
EvangelionEvangelion - an anime that I still have not been able to get into. The ones I saw were spooky with loads of blood splattering all over the gaff. Will make a point of seeing the new film out later this year though.
Air GunGot myself a Wild Cougar Beretta many moons back after not being able to find a socom - T'was when I had heavy Metal Gear Solid fever ^^;
These air guns are available freely to buy online and in stores throughout Japan. I think you do need to be ov...
Super Robot WarsI know of the series but know next to nothing about Super Robot Wars and the mecha that appear in it. I know so little that some of these mecha may not be from the series ^^;
Is the anime something I should pick up?
Shizuoka Hobby ShowHere are the rest of the photos from the show minus 3 figures and a particular series - will post that tomorrow.
The show had a ton of vehicles on show too - I took loads last time but figured that most of the readers here are not really interest...
Star WarsHmmmm. I thought I took more Star Wars pics than this...
Speaking of Star Wars - my Vader soft parts have arrived - the seller forgot to send the gloves though. Will spend time over the next few weeks modifying the armor.
Code GeassSome pics of Knightmare Frames and Lancelot from Code Geass - all roughly HG scale I think. You can also see Kalens frame too.
I dont think I would buy any of these though - if they were MG I would think again. What I do want are decent figures of...
