The last teaser before announcing the winner of the 20081025 Giveaway.

The third figure is Human Mage by Good Smile - non moe dark blue.

I saw from the previous teaser that some of you got two of them right - how about this time round? I think I saw a few who guessed these three but missed the last one ^^;;;

Will announce the winner later.

This giveaway is being sponsored by my good comrades at jlist.

    Human Mage? I think I know who's the winner... only saw one post with Human Mage when I was picking my choices.
    Kudos to whoever guessed it... never thought of that. In fact, I don't even know who that is.

    Ack! Had Human Mage down on the list at some point, but choose the Freeing figure as game figure instead.

    I got ownzored the second Kuugen was listed as one of the items. -_-

    I dare you to make the next one one of those evil logic puzzles. You know, the ones that go something like, "There are four figures. One has yellow hair, one has pink, one has blue, one has white. One has short hair, one long, one twintails. But the one with twintails is not the one that is pink, and the one that is blue is not released. Which figure is which?" Those kind of nasty ones.

    Well, 3 out of 4 till now, but the last one was the most difficult to guess; there are too many twin-tail loli characters with something of yellow color: Rin, Shinku, Fate, Pakira and Wendy can be described as yellowish twin-tailed lolis...

    Is it possible to see any closeups of the mage's face?
    I'm on the fence of ordering the figure or not and the final sculpt/paint of the face owuld help me make up my mind.

    At least I guessed the third figure would be the Human Mage when you posted the first teaser. :3

    It's been fun, can't wait to learn which was the last figure. And congrats to the winner (and the others who guessed right!)...
