Kahotan Post Office: May/June 2015 – Part 3

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today is the Port of Yokohama’s 34th anniversary!
I live in Yokohama which means there will be fireworks tonight!

More Details: Port of Yokohama’s 34th Anniversary Celebration.

 

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at more of the lovely photos sent in to Kahotan Post Office!! Thanks to everyone for all the possible header photos! You can find the previous entries in the May/June 2015 theme over here:

Kahotan Post Office: May/June 2015 – Part 1
Kahotan Post Office: May/June 2015 – Part 2

 

The theme this time around is..

Male Figures!!

 

I’ve looked at each and every photo that has been sent in, and have loved all of them! This time around there were a lot of people that send in photos for the first time, which I am always happy to see! (/ω\)

A big thanks to everyone who sent in photos!

I am going to be splitting my June selections into two posts, one today and another later this week! I hope everyone enjoys the photos as much as did!  ♪

As usual, I unfortunately can’t include all the photos sent in, but I did enjoy all of them! I’m sorry if your photo is not placed on the blog! 

Let’s get started! (●´ω`●)

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

It’s my favourite photo because I think its so fun if Sebastian become one hell of Survey Corps.. I’m sure he’ll able to help Levi heichou cleaning..

– IchigoTsuki

Sebastian and Heichou would probably get along really well seen they are both obsessed with keeping things clean! I’m sure anyone listening on in the conversation would not find it overly interesting, but the two of them are sure to have some very heated discussions about keeping things clean!

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

A nice place for a summer retreat… castles are nice and cool! (`・∀・´) Taishi is enjoying the coolth! 

– Komako

He definitely seems very relaxed! I can’t help but think of his humming when I see this photo! The relaxing Japanese scenery together with the laid-back pose go very well together!

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

A photo capturing Snake having one last cigarette before going out to work. Men speak with their backs! 

– Matsu

This back definitely has a story to tell! The effects of the smoke and cigarette are really nicely done! It’s rare to see a Nendoroid in such an serious, cool pose like this one! (´□`。)

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

The theme was male figures, so I decided to head out on a sunny day with my Aoba for some photos! Matching a photo to the height of a Nendoroid makes for a very low angle that isn’t really easy to take… I look forward to a bit more practice!

 – Rinpa

What perfect weather for a walk! I want to go with next time!!  Taking a photo from this angle really makes the Nendoroid look more lifelike! I think you did a great job!

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

A male figure theme seemed like fun, so I had a try at making some male Nendoroids look cute! They are the ‘Sweetie Boys’? I want to east some sweets with them! (*´꒳`*)

– shiro

It looks like a scene out of a fairy tale! Combining candy and Nendoroids is cute x cute – double the charm! Make sure you invite me to the tea party! ♡

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

Hello from America!  I really love the Hermitaurs in Monster Hunter, but I always feel so bad when I have to hurt one!  My pet crab was a good sport though and posed for these intense hunting pictures!

– Pancake

A photo that captures the Monster Hunter universe perfectly!!
I think I want to see more Nendoroid photos featuring your pet crab! He’s so cute! ★

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

KAITO: “This time between Spring and Summer always has so many hot days… nothing is better than some ice cream!”

Levi: “I’ve heard you can go on and on about ice cream no matter what time of year it is…”

KAITO: “Well? What do you think of my favorite flavour?”

Levi: “… not bad.”

– Mantsuki

I had the conversation play through my brain with the correct voices and all! Figures allow you to surpass the boundaries of series and get two characters like this enjoying a conversation! 

*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:*☆*:;;;:

Well everyone, did you enjoy the photos?

All the photos were so filled with love! It was so difficult to pick which ones to put on the blog, let alone which one to use as my Twitter header image!

Thanks again for all the photos!

 

I’ll be showing the photo I selected for my header in the next part coming later this week! I’ll also be announcing the theme for July/August 2015!

 

I hope for more photos soon!! (・∀・)

Nendoroid KAITO: Senbonzakura Ver.

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

June starts today! Eh?! It’s already June?!
We’re already headed into the rainy season! _:(´ཀ`」 ∠):_

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid KAITO: Senbonzakura Ver.!

A Nendoroid of KAITO based on the outfit he wore in the song ‘Senbonzakura’ by Kurousa-P! He comes with a slightly mischievous smile a much more tense, serious expression. His military uniform featuring the snow family crest has been carefully miniaturized into Nendoroid size while still ensuring he looks dashing and confident even in chibi size! His sword ‘Sessei’ is also included to display him in ready to fight!

Using the specially included leg parts, you can also pose him standing up without the need of the display arm. Be sure to display him together with the previously released ‘Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Senbonzakura Ver.’! ♪

Oooooooohhhh!! (´□`。)

The commanding officer of the Kamigakari Special Sakura Squad is joining the Nendoroids! 

Those of you who had tuned in to last weeks Hatsune Miku no Jikan 8 or Kahotan Station: May Edition will have already got a good look at him… but now he is finally headed toward preorders! His uniform is so adorable and features the beautiful snowflake patterns all over the sleeves – as well as on his hat! His smile and salute are also more than enough to brighten up my day! (/ω\)

However! This KAITO is about more than just his smile!!

He can be posed in a rather different pose too!

This KAITO is after all the commanding officer of the Kamigakari Special Sakura Squad! He needed a more serious expression!! ♥︎

The planner behind this figure was Hamako, who is a huge Vocaloid fan, and she put a lot of thought into getting as many fans to love KAITO-niisan as possible! I for one find his smile as well as his cool and composed expression both amazing!

This is actually the second figure from the song ‘Senbonzakura’ following on from Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Senbonzakura Ver.! ♪

The muted colors bring out the Japanese feel of the designs and also bring out the Senbonzakura universe so nicely! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

I decided I had to a back-to-back shot of KAITO and Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Senbonzakura Ver. , who is currently on sale! 

△ Just like Miku, KAITO’s hat can be completely removed. ♪

I really love this pose! It’s like they are defending each others backs as they ready for combat! (●´ω`●) 

The sword he holds is ‘Sessei’, and just look at the detail on the guard! 


△ The intricate little pattern is a work of art in itself!

Plus the sword also comes with a special hand part to display him holding it at the ready! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

He looks ready for anything…!!

As he is wearing a hat it’s quite easy for a shadow to fall over the head, but I actually think that kind of suits his more serious look…!

The tassel hanging off the sword is connected with a ring allowing you to move it to the left or right for a slightly different nuance!

Also note the details of the accessories on his outfit!

Another thing here I want to point out is… the hand parts!

The white gloves are lovely, but the fact that his wrists are still visible as open skin is lovely! You can easily create poses that give a little peek at his wrists! Be sure to come up with some lovely poses once he has been added to your collection! 

Speaking of making poses… KAITO can also be posed without the need for a stand! (。・ω・)ノ゙

This allows you to read the ‘Zero‘ written on his back without any interference! He does come with a stand for a more stable option as well though! (`・ω・´)

Enjoy all sorts of different fun poses of the cute and confident…

Nendoroid KAITO: Senbonzakura Ver.

He’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow!

Be sure to check the GSC Site from noon JST for more info!!

While we’re on the topic of Vocaloid character! I want to remind everyone that the Hatsune Miku Animal Charms I introduced last week are currently up for preorder!

From the ‘Character Vocal Series’ comes adorable charm accessories of Hatsune Miku and the other Vocaloid characters all as cute round charms based on various animals! The designs are based on the works of CHANxCO, and have been faithfully transformed into accessories for fans to enjoy!

The line-up includes Bunny-Miku, Tanu-Luka, Doggy-Rin, Doggy-Len, Cat-KAITO, Tiger-MEIKO and one secret character! The stomach sections have each respective character’s neck tie or ribbon printed on as well! Be sure to attach them to all sorts of things and keep the cute animal Vocaloids by your side to enjoy whenever you like! ♪

These cute PVC figure accessories feature various characters…. but…

Cat-KAITO is absolutely adorable! 

If you’re a KAITO fan then be sure to consider grabbing both the Senbonzakura version and his Animal Charm at the same time! 

Product Page: Hatsune Miku Animal Charms

Also don’t forget that orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will include a sticker illustrated by CHAN x CO as a bonus!♪
