Hello! How is everyone today?
I’ve been sticking to air conditioned rooms as much as possible recently… I can’t take this Summer heat…
But anyway, last weekend was the Hobby Maker Joint Product Exhibition at the Akihabara UDX building so let’s see what was going on at the event!! Here you can see Arimuu from the sales team who was manning the reception desk!
As usual we had a load of different companies taking part in the event! Let me take this opportunity to extend a big thank you to all of them! Good Smile and Max Factory also had a number of items on display with a focus on the recent items that were on display at WonFes! (ﾟ∀ﾟ*)ﾉ
Here we have GSC & Max Factory’s ‘Attack on Titan’ diorama corner – definitely one of the showpieces of the event! ★
Many of you have probably already seen the diorama as it was also on display at WonFes – the amount of detail that went into it is very impressive!!
But now for something a little different!
I’m going to take a look at some of the products from other companies that I thought looked interesting!
Let me start off with other companies distributed by Good Smile! ♪
From GSR we have the incredibly detailed Lamborghini Countach L400! ☆
Next up we have FREEing’s Homura Akemi: Yukata Ver. – ready to make you wish you were some candy floss!
WING’s Purple Heart showing off her cute and cool side as the main character from Hyperdimension Neptunia! ☆
Gift’s long-awaited Hayate Yagami: Swimsuit Ver., completing the magical girl trio!
Even smaller than before but just as cute, Fate/Zero is joining the Petanko Mini! Series! ☆
We also have Max Factory’s Benmaru, who has stolen my heart and won’t give it back! She’s simply stunning!!
Even though she hasn’t been painted, I already want her!! ヽ(ﾟ◇ﾟ )ﾉ
Just look at those beautiful long legs and dainty feet!
Moving on, let’s take a look at some of the figures from unrelated companies that caught my eye! Firstly we have the almighty battleship, Mighty Gou from Kenelephant!
From Movic we have the Color Collection: Uta no Prince-sama – ShiningAllStarVer!
It won’t be long before you can take home all of these Princes home with you! I must also add that the Kuroko no Basuke figures below the princes also look lovely!
From Medicom Toy we have Real Action Heroes: Homura Akemi! She comes with a load of weapons to play around with as well!
From WAVE: Tsukiko Tsutsukakushi and Azusa Azuki!
When I first saw Tsukiko-chan on display I think I became the ‘Hentai-san’ she speaks of so very often…:P
From PLATZ we have a figure set featuring each team from Girls und Panzer!
Each character will need such different paintwork – a great test of painting skills as well as the love for the characters!! (*´Д｀)=з
cafereo is bringing us the ‘Super High School Level Plushie #01: Makoto Naegi’!
I guess that seen this is #01, we can expect more of the characters to be coming up soon as well!
From SOL INTERNATIONAL we have Kyuubei Yagyuu!
The unstoppable whirlwind! Just look at her lovely toes! (〃∇〃)
It was an honor to show all these lovely figures on the blog! There were so many other interesting figures and goodies on display as well, but I unfortunately just don’t have the time to show everything!
Both WonFes and the joint exhibition have come to an end now…
But the WonHobby 18 Mini-Exhibitions are still to come!!
