2008-04-29 04:30:00 This figure come at no surprise since Kotobukiya had released almost all of the characters from Shining Wind. It is just a matter of time.

Minatsuki Saya
2008-04-27 17:35:00 This is one heck of a figure whom I had waiting for so long. In fact, she is the longest one I waited for release. I still remember I placed a pre-order for her mid last year, only for her to be delayed a few times and finally releasing in February 2008. She is no ... More About: Griffon , Kimono , Black Cat

Legioss & Tread
2008-04-16 07:50:00 The follow up from my previous post, this time it’s the review for Legioss & Tread by CM, also done by CollectionDX. Legioss & Thread is by far the most awesome mecha for me in the Macross/Robotech universe. (Ya ya, I know Mospeada is not in the Macross universe). Two mechas can combine into one! ...

Mospeada Ride Armour
2008-04-16 07:40:00 Mospeada was one of the first anime that I have ever watched. I was a huge fan of it since they have transformers type mechas. As with Macross, their plane->gerwalk->battroid mechas are my personal favourite. Recently, there are quite a few new mechas that came out based on Mospeada, from the Legioss (valkyries if you ...

2008-04-02 16:37:00 Saw this video over at SWATwolf’s blog.

2008-04-01 04:41:00 This is one of those not-so-common figure with a not-so-common-and-exceptionally-long name. This figure depicts Nekomiya Nono while she is having a long bath. Not for everybody since she is practically naked. She does comes with a variety of bathroom accessories, such as shampoo, floating duck, etc. The environment in the bathroom is quite well made ...

2008-03-31 08:31:00 First impression: so red! Except her body, all her dress, including her hat is in red! And I must say her dress is amazing! With a great mixture of semi-transparent material.

Preview: Vita and Unison Vita
2008-03-30 16:29:00 I am not really into the Magical Nanoha series. But I have heard that Vita is one of the more cooler character in the anime. From what I can see, the main difference between these Vita and Unison Vita figures is only the colour of the dress. The other details, such as the pose, the ... More About: Preview , Alter

2008-03-25 03:30:00 Asakura Ryouko is in the same league as Nagato Yuki, who are both aliens to come over to Earth to watch over Suzumiya Haruhi.
