Nendoroid Choromatsu Matsuno

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

The weather keeps jumping between hot and cold at the moment! I get the feeling I’m catching a cold from all the sudden changes in temperature! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Choromatsu Matsuno!

From the popular anime series ‘Osomatsu-san’ comes a Nendoroid of the third son of the Matsuno family, Choromatsu! He comes with three face plates including a smiling expression, an angry expression as well as a blank expression with a variety of different stickers for you to create your very own expression!

Optional parts include a ‘Nya-chan’ bag, two glow sticks and a variety of different hand and leg parts to allow for all sorts of different poses! Be sure to display him with his other brothers who are also joining the Nendoroid series!

“Who is it? That’s right! It’s Choromatsu!”

The only one of the six brothers with a bit of common sense who becomes rather useless in the presence of cute girls – Choromatsu Matsuno is joining the Nendoroid series! ★

His downward facing eyebrows, V-shaped smiling face and the green hoodie have all been shrunk down into Nendoroid size keeping all of Choromatsu’s unique charms! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Choromatsu is also known to keep his hair very well kempt, which is perserved on the Nendoroid with hyst how amazingly smooth it looks!

△ The one little dent at the side is lovely though!

He also comes with lots of optional parts!

First up, he comes with a paper bag featuring an illustration of his favorite idol – Nyaa Hashimoto! He also comes with the CITY WORK job advertisement magazine!

We got the original data for the magazine’s design directly from the publisher which means we could create the cover down to the finest little details!!

△ Covering up his mouth makes his eyes look a little worried! ♪

Plus…

“These sticks? Yep, they glow!“

Green glow sticks perfect for an idol otaku!★

This means he can go out and cheer for Nya-chan with all his strength!! ♪ Plus from this angle you can actually see the shirt he is wearing peeking out at the top of the hoodie!

Unfortunately, the glow sticks for the Nendoroid don’t actually glow, but I thought it would be fun to display him with some actual glowing glow sticks as well!! ★

△ Now it looks more like he really is participating in a concert! ₍₍ (ง ˙ω˙)ว ⁾⁾

The Nya-chan bag has a poster sticking out the back, and if you pose him with both the bag and the glow sticks it looks like he is walking home after an enjoyable live convert! (*´Д｀)=з

△ The fact that he is still holding the glow sticks
shows how much he enjoyed the show!

Anyway, let’s move on to his second expression…

…which has a very sudden change!!

An Angry Expression!

Choromatsu has a very large range of expressions depending on how he is being treated, and the gap between his standard expression and this expression is quite entertaining!! ♡

This expression is best used with his brothers…

You can just imagine some of his angry lines as he shouts at Osomatsu for taking his glow sticks before the concert! Bringing out the atmosphere of the Osomatsu-san series is really so fun and easy with the Nendoroids!!

But that’s not all! Just like his brother’s, Choromatsu also comes with a blank expression as well as three different expression stickers to choose from! ♪

Pose him swinging the glow sticks with this expression, or standing with one of his brothers with that expression… the possibilities are endless!

Be sure to create all sorts of fun and interesting original scenes!! ♡

The cute Nendoroid of the third Matsuno brother! ♪

Nendoroid Choromatsu Matsuno!

He will be up for preorder from Thursday! ♪

Just like his brothers before him, preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will include a special round base as well as two additional blank expressions!

Okurikara

Greetings everyone!
Chan-shuu from Good Smile Company’s planning team here! (@gscs_hirase)

This is my second blog and I’m still getting used to the ropes but I think everything is getting smoother now!! Today I’m going to be taking a look at ORANGE ROUGE’s latest product…

The 1/8th Scale…

Okurikara!

From the popular browser game ‘Touken Ranbu -ONLINE-‘ comes a 1/8th scale figure of Okurikara based on his standard standing pose from the game.

The figure faithfully captures Okurikara’s aloof expression, darker skin tone and the characteristic tattoo of the Kurikara Dragon on his arm to bring out his unique charm and personality for fans to enjoy by their side! Be sure to add him to your collection!

“I am Okurikara. There is nothing else to say.”

The dark-skinned uchigatana ‘Okurikara’ as a scale figure! His outfit that looks a bit like a ‘gakuran’ jacket and his long hair covering up his one eye as he glares out the other have all been faithfully preserved in the figure!!

As with the previous scale figures from Touken Ranbu -ONLINE- the figure is based on his standard standing pose from the game! Okurikara has that intimidating gaze and one foot forward in a pose that makes him look ready to react to anything! (ﾟＡﾟ😉

Let’s see how he looks from the back!

The arch in his back shows him standing up straight with confidence!

The creases in his jacket, rolled-up sleeves and warm loose waist-cloth wavering at his legs make for such a manly appearance! The tattoo on his left arm also looks amazing… but I’ll take a closer look at that a little later!

“I have no intention of being friends.”

The powerful, cold gaze just seems to match his line from the game so perfectly! The tightly closed mouth has a bit of a frowning look to it, yet there is something about his eyes that shows he has a somewhat gentle side to his personality! His expression tells so much!

Note the red tips of his hair at the back!

The very top of his head has black hair, but as it flows down to his neck it gradually fades into a dark red!

Also take a close look at that neck while we’re here! Just look at those masculine neck muscles, his collarbone and the Adam’s apple slightly visible from this angle!! It’s such incredible detail!! (;ﾟ∀ﾟ)=3

The paintwork also emphasizes the shadows making everything stand out so nicely!

Next up we have his jacket!

The jacket has a half-glossy black paint with shiny golden buttons and highlights that match beautifully! The necklace also matches up with the jacket for a simple yet stylish outfit – the necklace even has the small Sanskrit characters carefully carved into it! The white V-neck T-shirt also contrasts with the black jacket so effectively! （つД+ *）

Even the shirt has very slight shadows painted on to it! This had to be done rather carefully to ensure that the darker areas did not end up looking like a dirty shirt instead of shadows. Seeing the work done on this figure really shows just what artisans those who worked on it are!

As he is sculpted in a confident pose pushing his stomach out the creases on the back of his jacket have been carefully sculpted to match that pose.

You can also see the way the jacket has collected up at his elbows due to the way he has rolled up his sleeves – the movement of his body is so clear even over all his clothes.

His tassets and waist-cloth!

From the front, the purple cloth tied around his waist really stands out…

From the back the wavering of the waist-cloth stands out!

The armor on his upper legs is known as ‘tassets’, and you can tell from the sculpt and painting that they have a very different texture! They have a much heavier appearance to them! If you look really close you can even see the layer underneath the tassets is also sculpted onto the figure!

Then we move onto my personal favorite area…

The tattoo of the Kurikara Dragon on his left arm!

In his hand he grips his sword with it’s beautiful purple scabbard and golden guard… but what really pulls the eye is the tattoo along his arm – the tattoo of the Kurikara Dragon, which is where Okurikara gets his name from!

Also take a nice close look at the muscles on his wrist! Lovely! (*´ω｀*)

The tattoo has actually been redone again and again trying to get it to follow his bone and muscle structure as naturally as possible! I think we ended up capturing it really nicely in the end though! His black leather gloves and the tightly gripped fist inside are also one of his many highlights!

His pants and shoes!

Even all the way down here the sculpting of the creases is incredible!! The pants are not too loose and not too tight – just the right size to cover up the ankles!

The shoes really look like they are made from leather thanks to the glossy paintwork – but it’s a very different kind of shine when compared to the jacket! It looks like he just shined his shoes to perfection!!

▲ Finally my favorite shot for today! This angle captures his body-line so well!

The 1/8th Scale…

Okurikara!

 

Preorders will be open from tomorrow around noon Japan time! Preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP…


…will also include this Okurikara Sword Charm as a bonus!╭( ･ㅂ･)و̑̑

Make sure you don’t miss out!!

Nendoroid Batman: Justice Edition

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at this product currently up for preorder!

Nendoroid Batman: Justice Edition!

From the popular movie ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ comes a Nendoroid of Batman dressed up in his armor. The Nendoroid is a part of the fully articulated ‘Edition’ series of Nendoroids which allows for all sorts of action poses from the movie! His characteristic armor has been shrunk down into Nendoroid size keeping the epic appearance while also adding that cute Nendoroid charm!The paintwork has also been very intricately tuned to give the armor a heavy and metallic appearance. His batarang is also included in an all new sculpt for the Justice Edition, as well as a new Bat Signal based on the Batman v Superman design.

The Battle of the Century!

From ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ comes a Nendoroid of the Dark Knight and Vigilante of Gotham – Batman!  While the previously released Nendoroid Batman: Hero’s Edition which had more of a glossy appearance, this version of Batman has a more metallic appearance that has been preserved in the Nendoroid nicely!

△ You can make for epic poses just by adjusting the way the light reflects! ☆

As with the last Batman Nendoroid, this one is a fully articulated figure with joints in areas like the knees and elbows which allows for various action poses! ε=(｡・д・｡)

△You can also twist the body itself quite freely!

Plus if you take a closer look at the body itself you can see the details of the sculpt on his suit and belt – even the armor on his wrists and legs has a nice sharp, heavy appearance that really sets up the atmosphere nicely!  (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

The parts of his armor closest to his body have a matte finish that contrasts against the metallic look of the other parts very nicely!

The Nendoroid also includes his batarangs, but this time they have a much sharper appearance to better match the designs from the new movie!! (/ω＼)

The entire sculpt and color have both been completely changed!

This Batman has been specially tuned to match his setting from ‘Batman v Superman’! Let’s take a closer look at his cape! ★

The cape is separated into two sides and fitted with a ball joint!

This allows you to move the cape around to match all sorts of different movements and easily match the cape with your pose!

Plus you can also get a rather rare look at the reverse side of Batman’s outfit – it is nice and detailed as well, so be sure to take a closer look once he joins your collection!

Standing atop a building with the wind blowing his cape…

△ Also note the little tears at the end of his cape! Lovely details!

A Bat Signal based on the new design is also included! ♪

△ The bat silhouette is slightly larger compared to last time!

It also comes with parts to display it shining out into the night sky to bring out that Batman atmosphere even more! ₍₍ (ง ˙ω˙)ว ⁾⁾

△ This is still the prototype so it looks a bit like a sticker here,
but the actual product will have the bat printed directly on the light!

Fine tune the lighting to recreate some awesome arrival scenes, or make use of the flexible joints to recreate original action scenes! The possibilities are endless!!

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword – 1/7th Scale Link

Hello everyone! This is I.G. Sakai from Max Factory’s product planning division! Today I’m going to be taking a look at this figure from ‘The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword’ that went up for preorder today!

1/7th Scale Link!


You can just feel the spirit of Link flowing out of the figure! The sculpting by Yuuki Ishiyama and painting by Hiroyuki Hirose of Decomas Lab has come together so perfectly to create a figure filled with variety! As you can from the photo above, Link looks amazing with a shadow cast over him!

▲The photo almost looks more like a painting than a figure!

Taking photos of Link against a black background really makes the figure stand out in a way that it looks more like a painting than a figure! You can see how carefully the figure has made use of the effects of light and shadow as accurately as possible!

▲Size comparison with an iPhone5!

Link is a 1/7th scale figure, but he has a more bulky figure than most female figures giving the figure some very noticeable volume! But anyway, that’s all I’m going to be taking a look at on the blog, but we have also set up a special site where you take a look at more highlights, so be sure to take a look!

■ 1/7th Scale Figure Link Special Site
http://special.goodsmile.info/whs_link/en/

The special site features close up photos with little explanations, so be sure to take a look! Here is a little peek!

▲ You can really see the detail on the chain mail with a close-up!

Also be sure to take a look at the product page where we have also prepared a video to take a closer look at the video!!

■ Link Product Page:
http://www.goodsmile.info/en/product/5678/

The 1/7th scale Link is a part of the WONDERFUL HOBBY SELECTION series of top quality products! Note that while this product is exclusive to the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP in Japan, he will also be available as always in our international partner shops! Make sure you don’t miss out!

Anyway, that’s all from me for today!
Here is a quick summary of the product details!

■ Product Name: 1/7th Scale Link

◎ Buy Tickets!

In order to get into the event you need to buy tickets before hand! There are various different areas all with different price tags!

|дﾟ) Note that you can’t get into the event without a ticket! 

The tickets cover six different areas and come in three different types: 2 DAYS/1DAY (Qualifier) /1DAY (Finals). A lot of ticket types have already sold out, but there are still other types available, so those who are still interested in going to the event be sure to take a look at the ticket sales page here:  http://rbar.jp/en/ticket.html

(ΦωΦ)／ Personally I think the Qualifier B Area for Photographers looks interesting! You can easily see the full course for all sorts of photos!

 

◎ Make Preparations!

(੭ु´･ω･`)੭ु⁾ Preparing before you go to the event will make it all the more enjoyable! 

★ How the Race Works

The pilots all race through the course set out with pylons, avoiding penalties while aiming for the fastest time. The same pilots take part in each of the eight race venues and receive points based on their performance in each race. The pilot with the most points at the end is crowned the champion! The Chiba race is the third race, and the scores at this point after the first two races are as follows… 

More About Each Pilot can be Found Here:
http://www.redbullairrace.com/en_US/pilots

(ΦωΦ)／ Japan’s Yoshihide Muroya is currently in 11th place!
I hope his homeland will provide him with a good 3rd race!! ＼(ΦωΦ)

▲ Yoshihide Muroya at Fukushima’s Air Show! 
Below is the racetrack layout for the Chiba race! I can’t wait to see the planes flying through it!

( ˘ω˘ )／ The Start/Finish line is just in front of the B Area!

You’ll be able to see the results right in front of you!! The family area has a nice rise for the planes which should also be amazing to see and hear up close!

★ About the Venue

Before heading out to the venue be sure to confirm the rule of the venue! I a lot of questions have been answered over on the FAQs – Race page!

Other than the lounge tickers with a parking ticket included, there is no parking available, so it’s recommended to use public transport to get the event venue! The closest station is Kaihim Makuhari station, and the QVC Marine Field bus leaving from the south exit will be running from 09:00 to 13:30 on the day of the race, so it should be easy to get there! Note that the access gate depends on your type of ticket, so be sure to confirm that ahead of time! (`・ω・´)


◎ Buy Goodies!

There are lots of T-shirts, towels and other goodies to remember the event by on sale at the event! They will also be useful to have at the event, so I’m looking forward to picking them up!

( ;∀;) “I always end up buying way too much without thinking…!” ・・

The sales list of official goods at the event has been revealed! A total of 49 different items to choose from!


▲ The Chiba Limited goods were designed by Good Smile Company staff!

(ΦωΦ)／ Buying too many items at the event might make it hard to carry them home!

There will also be a sales site to purchase them ahead of time if you’d rather not carry them around with you at the event! You can see the full line-up on the following site: http://event.goodsmile.info/rbar_gsc/product/ (Japanese)

Sales areas will be in all the different areas, but certain items may not be available in certain areas! Keep your eyes on this Twitter account for sales information: @rbar_jp_gsc!

◎ Enjoy the Side Acts!

The Makuharikaihin Prefectural Park has various side acts going on between races in the air, on land and at sea!

(*’▽’)／ Enjoy a relaxing time watching the side acts while you’re waiting for the next race to start!

FMX, PARKOUR, JET DECK, STREET SESSION STAGE and more will all be performing some amazing looking acts!

You can find out more about the acts here: http://rbar.jp/info160502.html

Plus there will also be this special event by the national partner XFLAG….

XFLAG™ presents Pylon Strike!

Normally hitting the pylons in a race lowers your points… but this side act will instead have the planes heading straight for the pylons?!

(; ･`д･´) I can’t really picture how it will turn out… which makes me really look forward to seeing it!

◎ Foot Court!

Around 80 different stalls are planned to be open at the event! This photo is from last year’s race! 

Enjoy Taco rice, roast beef and rice, Okinawan soba noodles, Hakata fried chicken, Fujinomiya yakisoba, octopus balls, eel and many more popular Japanese meals! There are also all kinds of snacks such as mango shaved ice, shaved frozen strawberries, churros and crepes! In addition there will also be standard well known stores like Pizza-La, Yoshinoya, Coco Ichibanya and Lawson! (*’▽’)

(/・ω・)/ I have no idea what I’ll end up picking to eat! There is too much to choose from!! But that’s one of the fun things about the event!

◎ Meet the Race Queens!

The very first Air Race Queens to make the Red Bull Air Race even more exciting!! Four lovely image girls as sort of mascots for the event, as well as 14 cheerleaders that will be cheering on the pilots for the races!!

( ♡∀♡)／ Plus some of you may know two of the four image girls! 
They are also part of the Racing Miku Race Queen team!
Noa Mizutani & Tsukasa Arai!

 

Votes for the best of the 14 cheerleaders are currently going on online, and these results will be combined with votes on the day to decide the ‘Princess of the Sky’ – The Air Race Queen Champion!  The winner will be announced on the day of the finals right at the event!

You can currently vote over at the website below! (｀・ω・´)

(ΦωΦ) There we have it! My quick summary of the Air Race!! I hope it was useful for someone out there!!

Nendoroid Kogane Asabuki + Migite-chan Set

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Ever since it started getting hot last week my intake of barley tea has increased substantially! Whenever it starts to get hot I always consider it the perfect drink to cool down! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Kogane Asabuki + Migite-chan Set!

From the anime series ‘BBK/BRNK’ comes a Nendoroid of Kogane Asabuki together with Oubu’s right arm, ‘Raijoudou’ – also known as Migite-chan! She comes with three expressions including a smiling face, a worried face as well as a frenzied expression to capture the other side of her personality.The included Migite-chan is also partially articulated allowing you to recreate a variety of different situations from relaxed scenes to tense battle scenes! Enjoy both the lively Kogane as well as the unforgettable Migite-chan together with this set!

“I will fight! Together with Migite-chan!”

From the anime series ‘BBK/BRNK’ comes a Nendoroid of the innocent Kogane Asabuki as well as Oubu’s right arm that she inherited from her father – ‘Raijoudou’, also known as Migite-chan! ♥︎

The flowers that make up her hair accessory have all been so intricately sculpted! Kogane herself has a very light coloring to her that makes her look so sweet, while Migite-chan has all its vivid patterns faithfully included on the Nendoroid design!

Another part that really stands out is her hair sculpt! It has so much volume when you take a look from the back or sides!! (・∀・)


△ Her cute backpack is also included even with the adorable cat print!

Anyway, Kogane-chan comes with three alternate expressions to switch between, so let’s take a look at each of them! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

First up we have her smiling face!

Such a gentle expression that captures the kind side of Kogane so nicely! ♪

Next up we have this one…!

A worried expression! ε=(｡・д・｡)

Those worried eyebrows and the upside-down V-shaped mouth give Kogane such an pure and innocent appearance!! You can have her hold hands with Migite-chan and pose her walking home in a bit of an upset mood…

Although she also has a bit of a determined look to her!!

I’m sure fans of the series will be able to come up with all sorts of fun original situations with the Nendoroid!! ♪

Anyway, before we move onto the third expression I first want to take a closer look at Migite-chan!! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

＼Ta-da!!／

All of Migite-chan’s fingers are fitted with various different joints for all sorts of different poses! The thumb is even fitted with a Nendoroid joint!! ★


△The index finger and pinky finger are fitted with a simple joint,
while the ring finger and middle finger have ball joints!

The overall form of Migite-chan is so cute that it looks cute almost no matter how you place him! Its so flexible that he can even be posed to help you at school or at work! Here we have Migite-chan holding a pencil ready for use!! ♪
△ You could probably get it holding other items as well… as long as they balance! ♪

Anyway, moving onto her final expression… an expression to capture the other side of her personality…

A Frenzied Expression!

“I’ll gouge out everything!! Your eyes, your nose, your throat, and your guts… I’ll gouge them out with this very hand!!” 

A fierce attack with Migite-chan attached to her right hand!

The pose has such a powerful presence to it! She comes with a special attachment part that allows you to attach Migite-chan with ease! ♪

△ You can’t see her expression…
it’s hard to imagine that cute smile can become so fierce!

If you put her in her worried expression pose with this frenzied expression… 

Eeep! (˚ ˃̣̣̥ω˂̣̣̥ )
There is still something cute about it, but taking a good close look at this expression shows just how fierce she looks!! You can really jump from all the extremes of her personality with this Nendoroid! ☆

I look forward to seeing some of the original scenes fans will make with the cute Kogane-chan and the flexible Migite-chan! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

Add the world of BBK/BRNK to your collection!

Nendoroid Kogane Asabuki + Migite-chan Set!

Nendoroid Ainz Ooal Gown

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

The temperature has warmed up quite a lot now! We’re definitely in the season for ice cream now! Whenever I’m in at the shops I always take a look at the ice cream section to see if there are any new releases!

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

Nendoroid Ainz Ooal Gown!

From the popular dark fantasy series ‘OVERLORD’ comes a Nendoroid of Ainz, the leader of the Ainz Ooal Gown guild and ruler of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. His air of supremacy as the ‘Ruler of Death’ has been faithfully preserved with an impressive and dignified appearance – even when shrunk down to Nendoroid size!His face features movable parts and he comes with various different arm parts that can be used to recreate various different scenes from the series! Nendoroid Albedo is also planned to be released, so be sure to display the two of them together!

“I am the Supreme Ainz Ooal Gown!”

From ‘OVERLORD’ comes a Nendoroid of the skeletal overlord and strongest magic caster – Ainz!! ★

His dark red eyes seem to almost be glowing with the black around them, and his skeletal body looks amazing together with the mantle he wears over it!

Even as a Nendoroid he looks so intimidating!! (/ω＼)

The golden accessories contrast against his dark outfit so nicely!! Let’s see how he looks from the back!

The flow and creases of the fabric on his hood and cape are so beautifully sculpted! ε=(｡・д・｡)

Even though he is nothing but a skeleton underneath the cape, I can’t help but think he is nice and warm under that cape!!

Unlike most Nendoroids he doesn’t come with alternate expression parts, but he does instead come with alternate eye plates that can be replaced for a slightly different look!

△ A rather different layout compared to most Nendoroid parts!

Plus as you can see from above, his mouth can also open and close!! ★

The alternate eye parts fit into place between the upper and lower jaw! This is how he looks when you replace the glowing red eyes with the pure black eyes!

With the red in his eyes gone he looks a little calmer, and he even comes with a background sheet that represents the thing that calms him down when he gets too excited! This allows for various fun scenes from the series as well as from the ‘Pure Pure Pleiades’ spinoff!

But where are his arms? Lake a look!

This Part…

Covers his arm like this…

To end up like this!

In other words you can display him with his arms completely covered up by the cape!  

The arm parts are also fitted with ball joints allowing you to move them around in any direction for various different nuances! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Plus, even the bone parts above his eyes are movable parts, allowing for more comical poses from this intimidating eyes!

△ Open just one eye up wide for this rather cute pose! (●´ω｀●)

Changing the amount of his eyes that are shown can really change the overall feeling of the expression, giving Ainz quite an impressive range of expressions!

Although he doesn’t need it to stand, the final version of the Nendoroid is planned to be released with a Nendoroid stand to help him stand out!

△ Displayed with a Nendoroid Petite for size comparison!

He also comes with special arm parts to display him holding his head in his hands in worry! <(´□｀｡<)

△ The troubles of a supreme overlord…!

The size of the body and expressions are a little different to most Nendoroids…

But the enjoyment factor is the same as always!! ♡

Add the palm-sized supreme overlord to your collection! 

Nendoroid Ainz Ooal Gown!

He’ll be up for preorder from Thursday!! ★

Plus, this Nendoroid is also currently in development!

Nendoroid Albedo!

Nendoroid Co-de Hatsune Miku: Sweet Pumpkin Co-de

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I prefer my pumpkin on the sweet side! To the point that it could rather be a dessert!! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at a figure that made her painted debut on last week’s live broadcast…

Nendoroid Co-de Hatsune Miku: Sweet Pumpkin Co-de!

From the SEGA feat. HATSUNE MIKU Project’s ‘Hatsune Miku Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone’ comes a Nendoroid Co-de of the popular ‘Sweet Pumpkin’ module!The Sweet Pumpkin module was based on the illustration by ICA used for the ‘Miku LOVES Famima Campaign 4th Happy Halloween TRICK or MIKU?’. The colorful outfit has been faithfully recreated from the various little accessory designs to the ribbons on her dress and long twintails! Be sure to add the cute outfit to your collection!

“Time for some tricks and treats!”

A Halloween-themed Miku-san is joining the Nendoroid Co-de series!☆

The Sweet Pumpkin module was based on the illustration by ICA used for the ‘Miku LOVES Famima Campaign 4th Happy Halloween TRICK or MIKU?’!

Her rather light hair looks like some sugary candy and all the ribbons, stars and other accessories make for such a lovely cute and colorful outfit! The puffy pumpkin-shaped skirt and sleeves as well as the bat-shaped hair accessories help bring across the Halloween spirit too! (●´ω｀●)

The outfit with its pumpkin-shaped balloon skirt has a nice original feel to it, and Miku herself also has a very unique feeling to her! The way her hair is tied up down at the very bottom is a rather characteristic design! ♡

Note how the orange of the skirt is glossy while the white above it is matte! 

Even the textures brings out that extraordinary feeling about the outfit! (/ω＼)

The twintails are also fitted with ball joints allowing for slight changes in nuances while posing! ♪

△ Changing the angle of her neck and hair creates a rather different impression!

Anyway, 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, with the ability to dress-up in various ways!

They are designed to be fun for Nendoroid collectors to collect, and for younger fans to enjoy playing with and creating all sorts of new dress coordination! You can see all the figures released so far over on the..

Nendoroid Co-de Special Website!♪

Anyway, let’s get back to today’s item!!

Obviously the Nendoroid Co-de Hatsune Miku: Sweet Pumpkin Co-de is also compatible to switch out between all the previously released Nendoroid Co-de Series, which means that you can mix and match with various other characters for all sorts of possibilities! ♥︎

For example…

Head:  Shion Todo – Baby Monster Cyalume Co-de
Upper/Lower/Shoes:  Hatsune Miku: Sweet Pumpkin Co-de

Her hair accessory fits with the Halloween theme so nicely! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

 

You can also change Miku’s outfit! 

Head: Hatsune Miku: Sweet Pumpkin Co-de
Upper/Lower/Shoes:  Falulu – Marionette Mu Cyalume Co-de

The pink frilly outfit matches with her lighter hair very nicely!

I can’t wait to see some of the original outfit combinations from everyone soon!!
Be sure to add the sweet Halloween-themed Miku to your collection!

She’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow! ♪

Nendoroid Shigure Kai Ni

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Tonight was Snow Miku Live Broadcast! There hasn’t been a broadcast for awhile, so I was a little nervous…!

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

Nendoroid Shigure Kai Ni!

From the popular browser game ‘Kantai Collection -KanColle-‘ comes a Nendoroid of the 2nd Shiratsuyu Class Destroyer, Shigure Kai Ni! She comes with three expressions including her standard smiling expression, a determined expression great for combat scenes as well as a rather worried looking expression based on her half-damaged illustration.

The large ship parts on her back can be separated and equipped as cannons for her to hold, and the smaller single and double-barreled turrets on the sides can also be removed from the main ship parts and equipped separately, allowing for all sorts of different weapon setups! All of her turrets as well as the torpedo launchers also come with firing effect parts to really show off the full fire power of a destroyer – even in Nendoroid size!

She also comes with various optional parts to recreate both her ‘Valentine’ and ‘Summer’ seasonal outfits from the game! Enjoy the destroyer both ready for combat and in more everyday scenes!

“I am the 2nd Shiratsuyu Class Destroyer, Shigure!”

Shigure is joining the Nendoroids in her ‘Kai Ni’ upgraded form! Her cute hair that sticks out at the sides almost like animal ears as well as the single braid that lays over her shoulder both look so cute in Nendoroid size! Accessories like her hair accessory and neck tie also have lovely detail, and the outfit with slightly puffy sleeves as well as those ship parts all look so good!! (´□｀｡)

The mechanical, heavy feeling ship parts on her back have also been sculpted so nicely! Just imagine how strong she must be to carry this on her back all the time!

△ I also like the loose appearance of the fabric at the bottom of the barrels!

Not to mention the gentle smile on her face that brings out the personality of that kind and loving Shigure Kai Ni who is always looking out for others!


△ The smile on the Kai Ni version gives her a slightly more mature look!

However! You can also enjoy a more serious version of her with this determined expression! (｀・ω・´)ゞ

But it’s not just her expression that has changed! You’ll notice that the double barrel turret that was on her ship parts has now been equipped onto her left hand! (●´ω｀●)

Plus, the ship parts on her back…

…are fitted with a Nendoroid joint for all sorts of original poses!

But that’s still not all! The ship parts on her back can also be separated down the middle…

 “Enemy Sighted!”

And equipped to both her hands!!

This is very similar to the transformation that you could do with the previously released 1/8th scale Shigure Kai Ni, so those who own that figure might find it quite familiar! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

△ The previously released 1/8th Scale Shigure Kai Ni!

The turret parts that connect into the back of the Nendoroid stand not only have a ball joint, but each of the two arm parts also has a joint to allow for various different angles and nuances while posing!

You can move the turrets in so many different ways that the possibilities really are endless!! I can’t wait to see some of the photos that this Nendoroid will inspire!! ★

To make the combat poses even more epic, she also comes with shooting effect parts for all her turrets as well as the torpedo launchers on her legs!! You can connect all these parts at once to create a powerful pose that shows off the fire power of a destroyer! ( っ•̀ω•́)っ

△ The impression is so very different compared to her smiling face above!

However… there is still much more to come! ☆

This time around the Nendoroid includes parts to recreate two of the seasonal outfits from the game!! (/ω＼)

– 1 –

A bowl filled with chocolate, a spatula and an apron?!

The first seasonal outfit is the outfit that was available for the Valentine’s event!! ♥︎

She’s so cute!!! (*´Д｀)=з

The pale pink apron together with her mixing up chocolate… the perfect example of a young maiden trying her best for Valentine’s day!! It’s so cute it almost hurts!!

The apron part is planned to be included like this, with the neck area also a part of the apron! When you want to transform her into Valentine mode you will need to first remove her standard neck tie parts and then put this on in place! (・∀・)

– 2 –

…a pink tube?!

The second seasonal outfit to be included is her special Summer outfit!! ♪

A whole different kind of cute!!!

An entirely separate Summer body is included to switch her out to this mode! The swimsuit itself isn’t damaged or anything, but the slightly worried look from the included half-damage expression suits is so nicely! ♥︎

The slightly opened up mouth is just so adorable!!

△ The white coat slipping off her shoulders gives a nice relaxed look! (*ﾟｰﾟ*)

By the way… if you combine the half-damaged expression with the Valentine body…

… (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾

 

It’s as if she is simulating passing over the valentine’s chocolate to her Admiral… covering up her embarrassment a little with the spatula!!! This figure really allows you to bring out Shigure’s charm in all sorts of amazing ways!!

Last but not least, she also comes with a ‘Night Battle Background Sheet‘ with some drizzling rain to match with her name ‘Shigure’ which means ‘seasonal rain’ in Japanese! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ


△ The sheet connects to the base with a special attachment.

Destroyers are strong in night battles!

Which means the all-out pose with all the effect parts really fits with the night battle background sheet to fully bring out Shigure’s battle charm! (´□｀｡)

From smiles, to embarrassment, to combat! Be sure to add her to your collection and enjoy all sorts of scenes! ♥︎

Nendoroid Shigure Kai Ni!

She’ll be up for preorder from the 24th May 2016 JST!

Preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will also include the usual bonus of a Special Shigure Kai Ni Box Sleeve and a Special Nendoroid Base! ★

* Shigure Kai Ni’s Special Base will be a slightly larger (80mm x 80mm) base.
* The sleeve design will be announced at a later date.

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

Sagiri Izumi

Hi everyone, Suwabe here!
The once-a-week Kahotan blogger from the Corporate Planning Team!

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

Sagiri Izumi

From the popular Dengeki Bunko series with an anime on the way ‘Eromanga Sensei’ comes a scale figure of the main character’s younger sister, Sagiri Izumi! The figure is based on the cover illustration of the first light novel, and features Sagiri with her tablet in hand, carefully studying the source material in front of her.

The tightly closed mouth, soft-looking cheeks, loose hoodie and long bare legs have all been faithfully sculpted to ensure the world’s cutest little sister looks adorable in your collection!

The main character from ‘Eromanga Sensei’ as a 1/8th scale figure – Sagiri Izumi

I personally absolutely love those cute little ribbons in her hair! AQUAMARINE have really done an amazing job with capturing the character!! Thank you AQUAMARINE!!

Let’s take a closer look at her from various different angles!

From the Front!

There is something about the figure’s appearance and expression that somehow make Sagiri look not only super cute, but also have a somewhat sexy look! Personally I love the red shading on her knees!

From the Back!

The sculpting of the creases in her hoodie as well as the shadows that have carefully shaded on all over really make the paintwork stand out! You can also see that the curves of her body are captured quite nicely from the back! let’s take a closer look…


Wo-Wonderful!

I could stare at this for ages! You might also be wondering what is underneath that hoodie… but I’m afraid I can’t tell you! I didn’t look! I swear!

From the Right!

Even the pen she holds has been sculpted in such detail… and just look at the determination in those eyes!! The slightly pink areas on her ears also look so cute… I want to give her a hug!

From the Left!

The slight gradient of her hair has been faithfully transferred from the original illustration seen on the cover of the novel. Those cute ribbons that I mentioned above are also so adorably sculpted and the coloring makes them look like cute little candies!

From the Top!

She is holding a drawing tablet in her left arm… we can only imagine what she must be drawing with such deep concentration!

From the Bottom!

I wanted to take this photo from an even lower angle, but… you’ll have to bear with this until she joins your collection!

You can see she looks adorable no matter what angle you choose to look from!

Sagiri Izumi!

Currently up for Preorder!

Preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the
1st June 2016 at 21:00JST!


▶ Sagiri Izumi (GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP)

 

Anyway, that’s all from me for today!
I hope to see you all again next week! (*´ω`*)
