Nendoroid Hotarumaru

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

‘Hotaru’ means firefly in Japanese! Whenever I think of fireflies I remember seeing them at Shimogamo Shrine in Kyoto! They were so pretty!!

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

Nendoroid Hotarumaru!☆

From the popular browser game ‘Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-‘ comes a Nendoroid of Hotarumaru – the character with a small body, but a very large sword. He comes with three expressions including his standard expression, a combat expression as well as an embarrassed, upset expression based on his line, “I’ll shrink if you keep petting me like that.”His sword can be displayed sheathed or drawn, and his trademark hat can be attached and removed as you see fit – he even comes with a miniature hat to display him holding the hat instead! Be sure to add him to your collection!

“Are you having fun petting me?”

The family treasure kept in the ancient shrine of Mt. Aso is joining the Touken Ranbu Nendoroid series! ♪

The lovely green gradient of his eyes, his large trademark hat and everything else about his outfit has been carefully shrunk down to Nendoroid size while keeping all of his unique charm in tact! ♥︎

He looks so cute, and at the same time the colors of his outfit give him a much more formal appearance that contrasts really nicely!

The armor on his left arm is so detailed for its size! You can even see a kind of varnished appearance to it that adds a nice texture! (・∀・)

Anyway, let’s take a look from the back! ☆

The sword on his back has an impressive presence!

The Nendoroid itself is a little smaller than most Nendoroids to recreate his short stature, which makes the long sword stand out even more!!

The part of his cape draped over the sword has even been included with a gradient to yellow included!

△ The two layers of the cape also allow for a different nuance! ★

He looks great in his standard standing pose, but you also of course have the choice to display him with his sword drawn as well!

Battle mode Hotarumaru!

His second expression is a combat expression!! (/ω＼)

He comes with bent arms and legs which allow for rather dynamic combat poses! The eyes of this expression have a really strong will to them!


△ Create various different battle scenes! ☆

Anyway, onto his third expression!

An upset expression!! (●´ω｀●)

An expression based on his line “I’ll shrink if you keep petting me like that.”!

He’s just so adorable!!

Plus as you may have noticed his hat can also be removed! You can even try to place it on other characters heads as long as their hair isn’t too different!

△ Nendoroid Shokudaikiri Mitsutada on sale from March! ♪

Plus, he also comes with a smaller hat part, so you can pose him holding it, covering up his mouth like this!! 

The mini hat has the exact same detail!! (´□｀｡)

Posing the smaller hat over his mouth creates a whole new expression that really suits Hotarumaru nicely!! ♪

Simply pick the pose you like best!! ♥︎

As usual, he also comes with a special base featuring his symbol!


△ Just like all the previous Nendoroids in the Touken Ranbu series!

Add him to your collection and pet him all you like!

Nendoroid Hotarumaru

He will be up for preorder from tomorrow! ☆

Plus orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will include a Nendoroid Plus Rubber Strap: Hotarumaru “I’ll shrink if you keep petting me like that.” Ver. as a bonus! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Be sure to consider it when preordering!

As usual, this item will also be up for preorder at the same time!

Nendoroid Pouch: Sleeping Bag (Hotarumaru Ver.)

A Nendoroid Pouch: Sleeping Bag made with a special design based on Hotarumaru! The pouch can fit any almost Nendoroid inside and keep it warm and safe! Take your Nendoroid Hotarumaru or any other Nendoroid with you wherever you go!

Head out together with your Nendoroid Hotarumaru!

Nendoroid Co-de: Aroma Kurosu – Holic Trick Classic Cyalume Co-de

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Co-de: Aroma Kurosu – Holic Trick Classic Cyalume Co-de!

From the popular anime series ‘PriPara’ comes a Nendoroid Co-de of Aroma Kurosu wearing her Holic Trick Classic Cyalume Co-de!

The rather devilish outfit is the cyalume co-de of the Holic Trick Classic brand which is known for its mysterious designs. Be sure to display her with the upcoming Nendoroid Co-de figure of Mikan to recreate the Aromageddon unit!

“Dazzling! PriParapedia Labyrinth!”

The idol that acts as a messenger from the underworld, Aroma Kurosu is joining the Nendoroid Co-de series! ♪

Her pointed eyes and confident expression look lovely! He long and curly hair along with the devil horn accessories and her cute little hat are also all looking amazing!

△ Her hair really has some impressive volume!

Then we move on to the main outfit itself, the purple cyalume co-de of the Holic Trick Classic brand which has a slightly gothic feel to its designs! All the colors and accessories build up the ‘little devil’ look very nicely! ♥︎

Note the cute tail in the shape of a heart and all the layers and details on the frills of her skirt!! I’m quite impressed that this amount of detail was kept on the Nendoroid Co-de design! (・∀・)

Those of you who saw the WonFes photos will also know that the other member of the Aromageddon unit is coming soon!! ♥︎

△ Thank you for all the kind words on Twitter about their designs!

Let’s stop here for a second for…

A Quick Nendoroid Co-de Recap!

Nendoroid Co-de is a new addition to the Nendoroid series based on the theme of dressing-up characters! The figures have fixed poses and each come with four parts – the head, upper garment, lower garment and shoes. Each of these parts can be swapped between characters allowing for all sorts of possibilities. The more you collect, the more dress-up options become available to you!

In other words…! They are simple fixed pose Nendoroids, great for new collectors and with the ability to dress-up in various ways! Great fun for both young and old fans! 

For more information, be sure to check out the…

Nendoroid Co-de Special Site!

Here you can find out more about the Nendoroid Co-de series as well as test out some of the possible outfit combinations that will come from the first three characters, as well as see the current line-up! ★

Anyway, let’s get back to Aroma! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

△ This angle really shows off the curls in her hair nicely!

Personally I also really like the way she is posed with one finger pointing upward!

As Nendoroid Co-de come with a head, upper garment, lower garment and shoes it means that switching this body onto other characters will put them in the same pose! Just take a look at how much the atmosphere changes once we switch out Aroma’s body! ★


△ Body and shoes from the Nendoroid Co-de Bunny Magician Co-de

The rose on her chest really suits Aroma perfectly! (*ﾟｰﾟ*)

I decided not to attach the bunny ears as it gives her a slightly more mature look that I think suits her better! This Bunny Magician Co-de may also be coming to more events in the near future!!

Here is a Co-de change from the same Holic Trick brand! ★

△ Uses the body from Nendoroid Co-de: Sophie Hojo – White Swan Code

White suits her nicely too! (●´ω｀●)

All the previously released Nendoroid Co-de items are of course compatible, so there are all sorts of different outfit combinations to try out! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Be sure to add the cute little devil to your collection!

Nendoroid Co-de: Aroma Kurosu – Holic Trick Classic Cyalume Co-de

She will be up for preorder from the 1st March 2016! ♥︎

Plus she will be followed shortly by…

Nendoroid Co-de Mikan Shiratama: Silky Heart Cyalume Co-de!

Look forward to both of them!

SNOW MIKU

Today’s Main Feature…!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at FREEing’s…

SNOW MIKU!

A huge 1/4th scale figure of SNOW MIKU, standing an impressive 42cm in height! The coloring of the popular Hatsune Miku figure has been switched over to the Snow Miku color scheme, with her translucent skin glowing and snowflake patterns added to various areas of her outfit creating a mystical atmosphere to the figure.
Fans will be proud to keep Snow Miku’s angelic smile by their side to enjoy whenever they please – in an impressive scale that stands above the rest!

Ooooooohhhh!!! (´□｀｡)

The beautiful songstress standing before be with a snow flake on her hand!! Just look at her lovely smile which can be enjoyed in all it’s 1/4th scale glory!

⇒ Product Details: http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/5481/

Her pale skin matches with the snowy look, making her look like a beauty from a snow country!

The metallic silver, white and light blues of her outfit all look lovely too!

△ The skirt has an almost electronic feel to it as well!

This giant black box is the packaging for this huge figure! (・∀・)

It’s gigantic!!

The little Miku beside the box is the original figma Snow Miku! I think it gives a nice feeling for the size!

This is how the other side of the packaging! (｀・ω・´)ゞ

△ Such a lovely, stylish design! ♪

The box is not only tall, but also has quite some depth!! 

△ It’s like a wall to the figma!

The silhouette on the side has a holographic effect that gives a nice high-class effect! ♡

△ I want to put the box on display as well as the figure!

Anyway, let’s get back to the main figure!

She stands approximately 420mm in height!

The size also allows for nice close attention to the smaller details! The twin-tails twirling around her give her an impressive width as well!

△ The hair slowly becomes a darker blue down toward the tips!

The parts of the twin-tails that connect to the head with a metal peg to keep them in nice and secure! 

△ Compared with the figma!

The snowflake on her hand is a separate part that can be attached and removed as you please!

△ It connects into the hand nice and securely! ♪

Also, while the arm cover covers up most of her arm, if you look from a lower angle you can see the arm has been sculpted all the way up! Σ(･ω･ﾉ)ﾉ！

This angle also shows the layered effect of her skirt and tie! ♪

Add the snow songstress to your collection!

SNOW MIKU

She is currently up for preorder! ♡

Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will be open until the 2nd March 2016 at 21:00JST!! Don’t miss out!! (*´Д｀)=з

Nakigitsune

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

A big thank you to everyone who tuned in to the live broadcast! Today I’m going to be taking a look at Orange Rouge’s latest Touken Ranbu figure…

Nakigitsune!

From the popular browser game ‘Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-‘ comes a 1/8th scale of Nakigitsune as a faithful rendition of his standard standing pose.

His slender yet gallant appearance has been carefully sculpted together with all the finer parts of his outfit included in intricate detail – the mask that covers his face, the single shoulder cape and even the leg cape gently wavering in the wind. His fox companion curled around his neck has also been included, allowing Nakigitsune fans to enjoy all of his charms right by their side!

“Greetings! I am Nakigitsune’s companion fox! Time to head out!”

One of the Awataguchi blades, the Uchigatana Nakigitsune is being transformed into a scale figure!

His slender body, soft looking hair and lovely outfit have all been faithfully transformed into a figure based on his standard illustration – plus of course his companion fox has also been included curled around his neck!

The big rounded tail at the other end also looks amazing!!

You can see that this is a very well groomed fox!! ♡

△ I want to pet him! This profile look of Nakigitsune is also lovely!

Nakigitsune and the fox are both amazing themselves, but the details on his outfit are what really bring the figure to life! Look at all the creases and curves of the shoulder and leg cape as they waver in the wind! ★

△ The creases around his hips give a good feel for the thin shape of his body!

His trademark face mask and the magatama earrings both look amazing, and the various different textures are of the different parts of his outfit are all brought out so nicely with the sculpt and paint!

Even the neck tie has a slightly different, more glossy paint job to separate it from the other parts of the outfit! っ(。・ω・)ノ゛


△ The little gap between his gloves and outfit shows a little bit of skin! (⌯¤̴̶̷̀ω¤̴̶̷́)✧

An easy place to see the difference in textures I was talking about are his boots! Look are the soft looking black areas of the leather booths and then compare them to the golden tips!


△ All the little details of his character design have been faithfully preserved! ♪

He has been sculpted by Max Factory’s Nanako-san! ♥︎


△ If you look close you can even make out his mouth through the mask!

His outfit has such a lovely design!

△ Those long, slender fingers are something quite unique to male figures!

The details of his sword including the grip and guard are also a treat for the eyes! Be sure to take a nice close look once he joins your collection! (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾

The sigil on his shoulder can also be found carved into the sword guard! (●´ω｀●)


△ Although it’s just a simple standing pose, the details really stand out! ★

You can pose him together with the previously released Touken Danshi and experience the difference in their personalities first hand!

He looks amazing all alone, but posing him together with other figures from the series really brings out the atmosphere of the game!! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Be sure to add the quiet swordboy and his fox companion to your collection! 

Nakigitsune!

He’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow!

Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will also include a Nakigitsune Sword Charm as a bonus! ♪

Be sure to consider it when preordering! ٩(๑òωó๑)۶

I’m sending a photo of Nendoroid Rin Shibuya which I took while I was on vacation up north of the Philippines (side note: I live in the Philippines as well, but I live in the central area of Luzon. This was taken in Northern Luzon) on the first week of January.

I was walking  near the seashore and I just couldn’t resist taking the shot (it was really a beautiful place)

I called this the perfect date because it isn’t that often that you get to see the beach. Plus, you can take some time for yourself to do some “Soul Searching” just so you can find what your purpose in life is.. Or something along those lines. 😛

– pierrot05

A bit of a mature date! It’s nice to see a photo looking out at the sea instead of on the beach itself! (/ω＼)

Osomatsu-san Trading Figures

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I like cream imagawayaki best! By the way, I’m a single child so I always had all the snacks and desserts to myself!

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

Osomatsu-san Trading Figures!

 

From the popular anime series ‘Osomatsu-san’ comes a collection of trading figures featuring the six brothers of the Matsuno family! The line-up includes Osomatsu, Karamatsu, Choromatsu, Ichimatsu, Jyushimatsu and Todomatsu all wearing their hoodies as cute collectible figures! Each of their characteristics have been faithfully sculpted and their facial expressions and poses represent each of their personalities for fans to enjoy!

Oooooooohhh!

From the popular anime series ‘Osomatsu-san’ comes a set of trading figures of the six Matsuno brothers! Each of them is wearing a hoodie of their respective colors and each has slight changes to their look to reflect their personalities!

This is how they look from the back! ٩( ‘ω’ )و

△ The hole for the stands are on their backs.

The rounded appearance of their heads is so cute! Note the slight difference in hairstyles as well! ❤

Let’s take a closer look at them one-by-one! ♪

♣ Osomatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

What a lovely, cunning smile he has on his face! His easygoing and playful personality comes through very nicely!  ★

♣ Karamatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

The rolled-up sleeves of his hoodie have been faithfully included! Plus I can almost hear his voice while looking at that expression! He has a bit more of a dramatic pose making him look rather good! (/ω＼)

♣ Choromatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

Choromatsu with his mouth turned at the corners, small black eyes and low eyebrows! The white shirt beneath his hoodie has also been included!

♣ Ichimatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

A sideways glance and slouch! Plus the sandals to fully complete the Ichimatsu look! The slightly more messy hair has also been included on the sculpt! (‎ↀωↀ。)

♣ Jyushimatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

A lovely pure smile and sparkling eyes! The sleeves covering his hands and rather small sleeve holes have also been included on the design! (・∀・)

♣ Todomatsu ♣　♣　♣　♣　♣

Wearing his beanie for a slightly more trendy look compared to the others! The V-shaped mouth is also a very cute addition to the youngest brother! ♡

By the way, these are only around 35mm in height！

Nendoroid Petites are around 65mm, so these are about half the size! This is how they look held in my (rather small) hand!

They fit into my hand quite nicely!

Here is a size comparison with my iPhone6S! ♡

You can see they are a nice compact size, easy to carry around with you wherever you go!

Even though they are so small, you can easily tell them apart from the outfits, hairstyles and even the personalities that come from their expressions!

Plus as you may have noticed the heads are fitted with a joint that can move left and right allowing for slightly different nuances in your poses! It also means…

You can switch out the expressions between them like this!!

You can of course pose them alone, but personally  I think they look best posed facing each other! It makes them look like they’re in conversation with each other! ☆



△  I tried to match up the colors of the hoodies a bit!

I’ll be adding a few more two shots to my Twitter at a later stage too, be sure to take a look!

Display your favorite character alone, or all of them as a set!

Nendoroid Satori Komeiji

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I want to have a nabe party before it warms up too much! I also wouldn’t mind a takoyaki party, but I haven’t had one since I was a student! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Satori Komeiji

From the popular game series by Team Shanghai Alice, the ‘Touhou Project’ comes a Nendoroid of Satori Komeiji, the girl who can read the minds of others. She comes with three expressions including a standard expression, an expression with her eyes half-closed as well as an embarrassed expression.

Her pets Okuu and Orin are also both included, and she also comes with a red ransel backpack that she can wear on her back. Special hand parts are also included to create a joint pose with the previously announced Nendoroid Koishi Komeiji, so be sure to enjoy the Nendoroid Komeiji sisters together!

The girl who causes even the spirits to quiver in fear!

The rather feared young girl that can read the minds of others, Satori Komeiji is joining the Nendoroids!! Her third eye has been faithfully included together with the stringy appearance of the cords that swirl around her! ε=(｡・д・｡)

△ The ends of the cord are cute yellow heart shapes!

Her soft looking light purple hair has been sculpted with detail down to the tips!

The details of her outfit are included all around!

Her first expression part has one eye closed and another half closed as a bit of a hard-to-approach expression, while her second expression is a much more gentle looking expression with eyes half-closed! ★

The slightly open mouth makes her look so innocent and defenceless! (*ﾟｰﾟ*)


Plus, she also includes her two pets Orin and Okuu!! 

Let’s take a closer look at the two of them – Utsuho Reiuji (Okuu)  and Rin Kaenbyou (Orin)!

They both look so adorable!! (๑•̀ㅁ•́๑)✧

Orin’s neck is fitted with a joint allowing you to swivel her gaze a little!

△ Orin taking a look at Okuu as she plops down on my touch pad!

Anyway, moving onto Satori’s 3rd expression…

An embarrassed expression!

Complete with upset eyebrows and a downcast look! ♪

Plus an ever so slight blush to bring it altogether! She also comes with a ransel backpack part which matches with her pastel coloring very nicely! ♥︎

If you combine this expression with the pose from earlier…

She’s so cute!! (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾♥︎

The backpack itself may have been shrunk down to Nendoroid size, but it still has very nice detail to enjoy! ♪

It connects into the stand connector on on back!

The Nendoroid stand then connects into the bottom of the backpack to keep her nice and stable! (・∀・)

Plus, she also comes with special parts to display her in a joint pose together with Nendoroid Koishi Komeiji! Be sure to check the joint photo on the product page tomorrow! (♡ ᐛ )人( ᐛ ♡)◜

Enjoy the adorable Satori together with her pets!

She will be up for preorder from the 23rd February! ☆

Yuudachi Kai Ni

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I’m already starting to show signs of hay fever and the pollen levels aren’t even high yet! The daily battle against the pollen is set to begin soon!

But anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/8th scale…

Yuudachi Kai Ni!

From the popular browser game ‘Kantai Collection -KanColle-‘ comes a 1/8th scale figure of the fourth Shiratsuyu Class Destroyer, Yuudachi Kai Ni! The figure has been designed to be displayed in combat with the previously released Shigure Kai Ni, and is based on an original illustration by kujouitiso specially drawn for the figure. The dynamic pose of the figure is made even more fascinating by the effect parts that swirl around her.

She holds torpedoes in one hand to show she is in mid-combat, yet the expression on her face captures her determined personality even in the heat of battle. The ship parts have also been intricately sculpted, and the turrets as well as the torpedo launchers on her legs are of course fitted with joints to add slightly different nuances when displaying her! The ship parts are also sculpted to look physically heavy to contrast against Yuudachi’s soft looking skin and create a figure that fans will be proud to gaze at for years to come!

“Right, let’s have ourselves a lovely party!”

A lovely scale figure of the fourth Shiratsuyu Class Destroyer, Yuudachi Kai Ni in battle mode! 

The two tufts of hair that look a bit like animal ears as well as the red eyes that make Yuudachi her ‘Kai Ni’ have all been faithfully included on the figure! The slight pink gradient of her hair has also been preserved! ♡

△ The feeling of movement brought on from the sculpt is also fantastic! (・∀・)

If we take a look at her from the back…

Most of Yuudachi is blocked by her huge ship parts!

Plus the torpedo launchers on her thighs as well as the gun barrels on the turrets feature articulated parts allowing for slightly different nuances when posing her!

The fiery effect parts that surround her show the intense battle she is in, creating a dynamic figure that really captures the atmosphere of the KanColle universe! The red hot flames are also of course a show that Yuudachi is the destroyer that boasts the highest firepower of them all! (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾

△ The red flames coupled with her red eyes make
her seem to be burning with fighting spirit!

She is posed as if pulling down the white scarf down a bit with a bit of a grin on her face, as if she had just launched an attack of her own!

Plus if you look a little further down, you’ll also notice that the wind is blowing her skirt up quite a fair amount, making low angle shots for the blog quite difficult! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

Moving a little higher up, her rather impressive bosom is beautifully sculpted with the rather tight outfit showing off her curves very nicely!! The lines formed by her bent arms and legs are also really nice! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

On the other hand, we also have the mechanical looking ship parts to contrast against her soft looking skin! Let’s take a closer look at those parts – notice that the ship parts feature glossy areas, half-glossy areas as well as flat areas to really recreate that ship-like appearance effectively! ♥︎

△ Even a little ladder is included on the funnel! ☆

Her shiny shoes and slightly transparent socks also look lovely!
Note the little antennae on the back! ♡₍₍ ◝(・ω・)◟ ⁾⁾♡

△ The ship parts also boast lovely gradient paintwork.

Another area on the ship parts that I adore…

The white sail billowing in the wind!

The sail itself couldn’t be completely seen in the original illustration, so we had to assume how this area looked in order for the sail to blow outward like this – it ended up with these three strings connected at the bottom!

Last but not least, there is also a red ship propeller on her back! Not to mention that each of the torpedoes in her hands also each have a little golden propeller on the end!

△ The comical expressions on the torpedoes are also a cute touch! (●´ω｀●)

So much to see on a single figure! Add the destroyer to your collection!

Yuudachi Kai Ni!

She’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow!!

Plus, preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will include an Original B2 Poster Illustrated by kujouitiso as a bonus! ♪

Be sure to consider it when preordering! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Plus, this figure is designed to be displayed with the previously released Shigure Kai Ni! Be sure to display them together if you have previously picked her up! (●´ω｀●)

△ Display them as friends or as allies! Both look great! ♪

Plus… Shigure Kai Ni is also going to be rereleased!

For those that missed out on her last time, this is your chance to display the two of them together! Don’t miss out this time!

The rerelease will be up at the same time that Yuudachi Kai Ni goes up for preorder tomorrow! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

* The GSC Online Bonus is not included with the rerelease.

Saber/Souji Okita

Today’s Main Feature…! 

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at an item currently up for preorder…

Saber/Souji Okita!

A 1/7th scale figure of Sakura Saber – the character who originally appeared in ‘Koha-Ace’ serialized in KADOKAWA’s Comptiq magazine, and then went on to take part in a limited time event in Fate/Grand Order! She has been sculpted wearing the Coat of Oaths Noble Phantasm, showing her dressed just like her true name, Souji Okita! The figure is sculpted by Ken Kawanishi.

The characteristic blue-green coloring of the coat has been faithfully reproduced, and she holds her carefully detailed katana ‘Kiku-Ichimonji Norimune’ ready for combat, creating a figure that fans will be proud to own. Be sure to summon the confident solider of the Shinsengumi to your side!

Souji Okita, dressed in the Coat of Oaths.

Such a fearless and gallant appearance! A 1/7th scale figure of Sakura Saber in her ‘true’ form as Souji Okita!

While the figure is a rather simple pose, the feeling of movement of the wind blowing her coat and scarf creates a lovely dynamic element to the figure that is such a treat for the eyes! Plus while the clothes are blowing about in the wind the body looks rigid and ready for combat, creating a kind of tense element to the figure as well!

Let’s see how she looks from the back! ( ✧Д✧)!!

The creases in her outfit are perfect!

The flow of both the pale green haori coat as well as the white kimono she wears beneath it are sculpted so effectively that it’s almost hard to believe that they are not made from actual fabric! But while the clothes are amazing, let’s not let them take away from just how amazing the sculpting of Saber herself is!

Just look at the elegant fingers holding the sword! ♪

In her hands she is holding the sword ‘Kiku-Ichimonji Norimune’, but just look at the way her fingers curl around the sword, making her seem to be holding it with such nimble grace. The details of the grip and ornaments on the sword are also not to be missed! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

Also take note of her lovely legs!

The curves of those soft white thighs as she stands on tip-toe…<○><○>

You can’t help but want to run your finger along them! At least I know I can’t! I can’t show it on the blog, but you can actually see even more of these lovely thighs from a lower angle!

Be sure to have a nice close look from all sorts of angles once she joins your collection! ₍₍ ◝(‘ω’◝) ⁾⁾ ₍₍ (◟’ω’)◟ ⁾⁾

Another thing that I have to mention is the detailed sculpting of her hair!

From the ribbon that ties up the hair down to each of the stands blowing in the wind… the sculpting matches with the entire figure very nicely!  (/ω＼)

Such beauty and grace for a combat pose, but her expression captures the tension of the combat! 

Such an imposing glare, showing strength though calm… 

Add the confident Shinsengumi soldier to your collection!

Saber/Souji Okita!

She is currently up for preorder!

Product Details: http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/5460/

Orders at the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 24th February 2016 at 21:00JST! Don’t miss out!  ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Nendoroid En Yufuin

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I eat chocolates without even realizing what I’m doing! I know I should stop buy I also know my body will not let me! *nom* (๑´ㅂ`๑) *nom*

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

Nendoroid En Yufuin!

From the anime series ‘Cute High Earth Defense Club Love!’ comes a Nendoroid of the Binan High School 3rd year student En Yufuin in his transformed form – Battle Lover Cerulean! He comes with three expression parts including his standard expression, a smiling expression and a sighing expression!Optional parts include his ‘Love Stick’ wand to display him firing out splash attacks, as well as parts that allow you to place him in his post transformation pose! A special bath-time body part is also included which allows you to display him relaxing at the Kurotamayu bath house as well! Enjoy all sorts of fun scenes from the series!

Hirameki Prince, Battle Lover Cerulean!

The Binan High School 3rd year student who could do almost anything he puts his mind to but never really puts his mind to anything, En Yufuin is joining the Nendoroids! ♥︎

His unique hairstyle and lovely blue and white outfit have all been faithfully converted to Nendoroid size! 

Even the little ribbon at the top of his chest and the little accessories around it have been intricately sculpted!

From the back you also get a nice look at his light and wavy hair!! Not to mention the awesome tailcoat jacket!! (*´Д｀)=з

△ The gentle flow of his hair is so beautifully done! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Optional parts include his Love Stick allowing you to pose him as if firing out his splash attacks! He also comes with various different arm and leg parts allowing you to recreate other popular scenes from the series!

For example…

“All you who would defile this beloved Earth…”

You can display him in the pose just after his transformation scene! (●´ω｀●)

“…I shall teach you the power of love!”

It wouldn’t be right if he couldn’t take these poses!

The ‘Battle Lover’ pose is also available in Nendoroid size! Plus if you use the same pose but switch out to his standard expression… it’s like he lost all of his inspiration! 

△ The contrast between the heart hands and listless expression is lovely!

Plus he also comes with this third expression…

A sighing expression!

Perfect for someone who finds things troublesome all the time!

This pose really suits his personality nicely! But there is another rather special optional part that is also included…. (´□｀｡)

Bath-time Body & Yellow Bucket! ♥︎ 

These parts were even kept a secret during WonFes! ♪

Note that his chest muscles, belly button and collarbone have all been sculpted onto the design! Both arms are also fitted with joints for slightly different nuances!

△ A bit of an embarrassed look with the sighing expression!

Plus, take note of his left arm! ☆ 

This body even includes his bracelet!

You can even see the little heart shape! Even though it is so small it is very noticeable when he is hardly wearing anything else! ♪


△ The right arm is bent, so even a little movement can make quite a difference!

With multiple expression parts and an alternate body, there are so many different poses you can enjoy from the series! 

Make sure you don’t miss out!! (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾♡

Nendoroid En Yufuin

He will be up for preorder from tomorrow!
Plus, orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will include a Nendoroid Plus Rubber Strap: En Yufuin as a bonus! Be sure to consider it when preordering! ★
