Nendoroid Yuri Katsuki: Casual Ver. (YURI!!! on ICE)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I always bring a backpack with me to work! The other day someone told me I looked like I was going mountain climbing!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Yuri Katsuki: Casual Ver.!

From the popular anime series “YURI!!! on ICE” comes a Nendoroid of Yuri Katsuki wearing a casual outfit! He comes with two face plates including the blank expression he sometimes showed in the series, as well as a drunk expression!

Optional parts include his glasses, a scarf, a backpack and an alternate head part wearing a hat! In addition, he also comes with a bottle of sake which is perfect to display together with the drunk expression and recreate the famous scene from the series! Enjoy the more casual side of Yuri’s life with this casual Nendoroid!

“My name is Yuri Katsuki!”

From the anime series “YURI!!! on ICE” comes a new Nendoroid of Yuri Katsuki, this time wearing a much more casual outfit!! ★

He looks so nice and warm wearing his scarf, beanie and jacket! The rounded backpack has also been included which all come together to capture his casual appearance perfectly in adorable Nendoroid form!

*The stand connecting to the backpack is provisional!

You can of course remove the backpack, scarf, his glasses…

…and even the hat!

You can even enjoy Yuri in his causal outfit without the glasses or hat!

In addition, he also comes with this as an optional part!

The “Invitation to the Underworld” bottle of shochu from the series! Plus he also comes with another face plate that works perfectly with the alcohol –  a drunk expression!

In the past when I reviewed Nendoroid Yuri Katsuki: Free Skating Ver. on the blog I remember writing that you could easily mistake him for an angel… this time around I don’t think there are any words to describe how adorable he is!! Just look at him!! 

▲ The absolute bliss on his face makes any pose look adorable!

The previous expression with an open mouth and slight blush definitely captures Yuri’s pure and innocent side, but this drunk expression captures another part of him so perfectly!

▲ I had too much fun taking these photos

To summarize! The following parts are included with the Nendoroid! ★

　　◇ Glasses
　　◇ Bottle of Sake
　　◇ Scarf
　　◇ Backpack
　　◇ Hat Head Parts (That hat has his hair attached. Not visible in this photo!)

In addition to all these parts, he also has two different expressions to choose from which can also be switched to have glasses on or off, or with and without the scarf and hat for all sorts of different possibilities! ♪

Recreate your favorite scenes from the series as well as your very own original situations all in Nendoroid size! Don’t forget that you can always use expressions from other Nendoroids as well for even more options!

Also note the difference in the size of the clothing between this Nendoroid and the previously released Nendoroid Yuri Katsuki! The jacket makes him look so much more puffed up!

Enjoy the more relaxed appearance of the figure skater with a glass heart!
Nendoroid Yuri Katsuki: Casual Ver.!

He’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow!

Nendoroid Kongo Kai-II (Kantai Collection -KanColle-)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

My Twitter account has reached 70000 followers! A big thank you to everyone who follows me!! Today I’m going to be taking a look at this product that went up for preorder earlier today…
Nendoroid Kongo Kai-II!☆

From the popular browser game “Kantai Collection -KanColle-” comes a Nendoroid of the upgraded form of the first Kongo-class battleship’s upgraded form – Kongo Kai-II! She comes with three face plates including her standard expression, a winking face as well as a doubtful expression.

Optional parts include a selection of cannon firing effect parts as well as some freshly baked scones for tea time! These can be used together with the tea set included with the previously released Nendoroid Kongo for an even more complete tea time! The ship parts are also highly articulated allowing them to be moved into all sorts of different poses! Be sure to add this upgraded form of Kongo to your fleet!

“Yes! Let me show you my full potential!”

The battleship that was built in Britain by Vickers Shipbuilding Company, Kongo has returned to the Nendoroid series in her upgraded Kai-II version!

⇒ PRODUCT DETAILS

All of the changes on the Kai-II design such as the decoration on her chest and the different Alice band parts have all been faithfully included on the design, plus…

The ship parts that that kind of bend around her have also been faithfully shrunk into Nendoroid size! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ 三 ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

This time around the end part of the ship parts features a drawer joint so that it can be deployed further out, allowing for various different posing options!

Before and after it has been deployed outward it can also move to the left and right allowing for a huge amount of customization! ♪

This is what the drawer effect looks like from the top!

The shield part and center part of both the left and right sides also feature a double joint that allow the part to be moved vertically and horizontally! (●‘∀‘●)ﾉ”

As with all the previous KanColle Nendoroids, she also comes with a nice selection of firing effect parts for powerful attack parts, and also comes with a winking expression! ★

▲ You can also bring the shield parts around like this!

She also comes with…

Freshly baked scones!! ★

All of the Nendoroids in the KanColle series have almost always come with some kind of food part, and this time around Kongo comes with scones!! Just look at the golden brown top and overall delicious appearance!! She even comes with oven mitts to take the hot tray out of the oven! ♪

“Admiral! Would you like a freshly baked scone?”

She also comes with a doubtful expression that suits the above line so nicely! She looks a little unsure, with that open mouth looking so cute!

You could instead switch it over to the winking expression which makes the line “I made scones! Waiting for you” fit better! ★

Various parts for all sorts of situations from the game as well as original poses!

The English born, Admiral-loving battleship!
Nendoroid Kongo Kai-II!

She is currently up for preorder!★

Phosphophyllite (Land of the Lustrous)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at the 1/8th scale…
Phosphophyllite!

From the popular manga series currently being serialized in Monthly Afternoon magazine, “Land of the Lustrous” comes a 1/8th scale figure of the main character, Phosphophyllite! The figure has been sculpted by Shokubutu Shojo-en’s Iwanaga Sakurako, who has created a figure that captures Phos’ beauty in a work of art.

The figure makes use of a large amount of translucency in order to capture Phos’ jewel-like appearance as faithfully as possible, with the hair making use of a metallic paint that captures the dazzling look in careful detail. Be sure to add this beautiful gem to your collection!

The phosphophyllite gem!

From the popular manga series that currently also has an anime airing, “Land of the Lustrous”, comes a 1/8th scale figure of the main character and youngest of the gems at just 300 years old –  Phosphophyllite!

The figure has such a unique appearance that really captures the atmosphere from the series! Let’s start off with a quick spin to take a look from various different angles! (∩・∀・)∩

The sculpting is done by Shokubutu Shojo-en’s Iwanaga Sakurako, and as always the sculpt looks absolutely stunning! The intricate details and subtle touches all over the sculpt make you want to stare at the gem for ages!

The tight fitting black outfit sticks close to the curves allowing you to make out all the little bumps along the hipbone even through the outfit!

The contrast of the black outfit and the pale and soft looking skin of the thighs is lovely, and the curves of those thighs are also so beautiful!!

▲The creases in the outfit are also very intricate! (*´ｪ`*)

The gem-like hair is made completely using a translucent green that also makes use of a special glowing metallic paint that creates a kind of oil-like effect that really captures that gem-like appearance of Phos’ design! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ 三 ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

The way the hair catches the light differs depending on the angle you choose to look from, so be sure to try all sorts of different angles once it joins your collection!

Plus, if we take a close-up of the face…

You’ll notice that the eyelashes are actually sculpted onto the figure! This also makes use of a metallic paint which makes the whole eyes glitter beautifully and differ depending on the angle you choose to look from – just like an actual gemstone! ★

Such beautiful long legs and arms also in fact make use of an ever so slightly translucent appearance to add even more to the gemstone feel! ♪

Now let’s take a look at the base!

The main part of the base has a watery-look with ripples all along the water surface!  The ripples are coming from Ventricosus jumping out of the water!

▲ The details of the water are really a treat for the eyes!

Phos is attached to the base like so!

▲ If you look close at the base you’ll see some pieces of the arm! (´□｀｡)

Be sure to add this gem to your collection! 

The 1/8th Scale…
Phosphophyllite!

The gem will be up for preorder tomorrow!

Keep your eyes on the Good Smile Company website for more details!

Hatsune Miku: 10th Anniversary Ver.

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Hatsune Miku: 10th Anniversary Ver.!

Hatsune Miku celebrated her 10th anniversary on the 31st August 2017. In commemoration of the anniversary, Hatsune Miku’s character designer KEI illustrated a brand new illustration of Miku featuring the outfit designed by manga artist Mari Shimazaki. This illustration has now been transformed into an intricate scale figure by sculptor Takayuki Kawahara, filled with 10 years of appreciation toward the virtual idol!

Her body shines with a rainbow glow, and the transparent areas of the design have all been captured on the figure, together with the meticulous detail of her twin-tails and the ribbons in her hair. The huge, iconic ribbon from the illustration has also been included on the figure, and even flows down to form the base of the figure as well.

In addition, the figure will include a 390 page A4 size commemorative book called the “Hatsune Miku Archive”, which will include the winners of the pixiv Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary illustration contest as well as other contents to look back on Miku’s 10th anniversary. Be sure to add this commemorative figure to your collection and celebrate ten years with Hatsune Miku!

Celebrating 10 years of Hatsune Miku!

This year is the 10th anniversary of Miku-san!! We have taken her 10th anniversary design and transformed it into a 1/7th scale figure!

▲ The flow of her twin-tails and ribbon are so amazing!

The figure is of based on the 10th anniversary that was specially illustrated by character designer KEI! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

The lovely Miku that we all love has been transformed with a metallic look and rainbow colors all over for a familiar yet new appearance! This version of Miku was designed by the designer and manga artist Mari Shimazaki! This was the original design!

⇒ Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary x Good Smile Company Special Site

The original illustration and design were of course amazing… but the figure has all been brought together by Good Smile Company’s very own Takayuki Kawahara!

Here are some items sculpted by him in the past! ↓↓


▲ Saber & Saber Motored Cuirassier

▲ Sakura Kinomoto: Stars Bless You

 

But anyway, let’s get back to today’s main feature with a quick spin!

You can see just how large the huge ribbon on her back is, and speaking of ribbons, the rainbow-colored ribbons in her hair and glittery outfit bring so much lovely color to the figure! (●‘∀‘●)ﾉ”

The Nendoroid has to have some of the ribbons removed to fit in the mini-size, but the scale figure faithfully captures all seven different colors on each side! ♪

Each of the ribbons also has a glittery effect making it sparkle! So pretty!

Let’s take a look at three points that make this figure so special!

– Cuteness –

Just look at this adorable face!!

The feeling that KEI captured in his illustration has been preserved on the figure so beautifully! She looks so innocent and pure with a smile that could warm anyone’s heart! I could stare at this adorable expression for ages!

– Transparency –

If you look closely at her shoes you’ll notice that the tips are actually translucent!! In order to capture the illustration as faithfully as possible, the feet were completely sculpted first and then the shoes with a transparent layer on the outside! The inside isn’t just paint – it’s all actually sculpted!

The combination of transparency and glitter on her arm covers is also lovely!

▲ From the front you can’t really see them, but the panels on her arm covers are also of course included! ♪

– Shininess –

The rainbow gradient on the metallic part of her outfit has been carefully adjusted as not to be too overpowering, but still create that lovely colorful look!! ε-(o´ω｀o)

▲ Even the soles of her shoes have a metallic rainbow gradient!

Another area you have to take note of is the bottom the skirt and top of the socks!

Not only do they feature a glittery look, but the inside is also painted to make it look like the inside is glowing in order to capture the lighting effect from the illustration! ♪

The areas circled in red here have a kind of glowing effect that looks so amazing!!

It really is an absolutely stunning figure in terms of sculpt and coloring!! There is so much to see and enjoy! You really need to see her for yourself though!!

▲ She is so sparkly!

A commemorative item to say thanks and congratulations to Miku!
Hatsune Miku: 10th Anniversary Ver.!

She’ll be up for preorder tomorrow! ★

Take a look at the Good Smile Company website for more details!

This figure will also come with a 390 page A4 size commemorative book called the “Hatsune Miku Archive”, which will include the winners of the pixiv Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary illustration contest as well as other contents to look back on Miku’s 10th anniversary!

 

A book filled with Miku to enjoy together with your figure! ♥

In her hand she holds a tray with a teacup and teapot!

▲ Three teacups are included! I’ll explain why shortly!

She comes with three face plates including the lovely standard expression you can see in the photos above! Her second expression is this disappointed face plate!

That eye really makes it seem like she wants to say something!

The fact that the one eye is hidden behind her hair also means that changing the angle can make for quite a large change in the feel of the expression!

▲ An expression that can tell so many stories!

Let’s move on to her third expression: a cheerful smile with closed eyes! ♡

I can just imagine her cheerful voice playing through my head! Plus as you can also see, she comes with a café table as well!

Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype) & Ascension Ver. (Fate/Grand Order)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Tomorrow is the Animate Girls Festival! You can expect quite a lot of new info to come through at the event!! I hope everyone is looking forward to it!

Today I’m going to be taking a look at ORANGE ROUGE’s latest Nendoroid…
Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype)!

From the popular smartphone game “Fate/Grand Order” comes a Nendoroid of the Saber class servant, Arthur Pendragon (Prototype)! He comes with three face plates including a handsome standard expression, a heroic shouting expression as well as a slightly more bashful blushing expression.

His sword Excalibur with all of its beautiful details is included for him to wield, allowing for various different poses from the game! Enjoy your very own knight in shining armor shrunk down to adorable Nendoroid size!

“Seal Thirteen… Decision Start!”

From Fate/Grand Order comes a Nendoroid of the knight in shining armor, Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype)! The details of his armor have been so amazingly detailed even in tiny Nendoroid size!! ★

The layering of the armor has also been faithfully preserved on the Nendoroid making it really impressive to look at! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

The laced part of his armor on his right hand, the iconic hood, the long cuffs of his outfit and even the shoulder armor have all captured so nicely! Different parts of the armor mix and match between a glossy and matte finish to differentiate the different textures of the armor as well!

▲ The flow of his hair also looks great!

He comes with a lovely smiling expression above as his standard expression, as well as a shouting expression more suited to combat scenes!

He also comes with special parts that allow you to pose him with his sword held upward with both hands to recreate the scene from the game!

▲ I can just imagine his intrepid voice!

Plus he also comes with this third face plate…

An embarrassed expression! (/ω＼)

The expression is based on expressions that are seen in the game, but when they are converted into Nendoroid proportions the face looks even cuter than ever before!!

According to the figure’s planner, the above pose has been tuned to match nicely with this pose from Nendoroid Saber/Altria Pendragon!

▲ Released in July 2016

Another detail that I really enjoyed was the nuance of his fingers for the open hand part! They aren’t completely open but instead have a slightly bent look that match with this embarrassed expression very nicely! I’m sure it can be used for various other poses as well!

▲The ever so slight blush and almost waving hand… so cute!

Arthur Pendragon is best known for his knightly appearance and combat scenes, but it is lovely to have a more gentle, cute looking pose like this one to choose from! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Be sure to add the little knight to your collection!
Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype)!

He’ll be up for preorder from the 7th November!

 

However… that is not all!

We also have an alternate version with some bonus parts!

Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype): Ascension Ver.!

From the popular smartphone game “Fate/Grand Order” comes a Nendoroid of the Saber class servant, Arthur Pendragon (Prototype)! This special “Ascension”” version includes all the parts that are included with the standard version together with bonus parts for even more display options!

He comes with three face plates including a handsome standard expression, a heroic shouting expression as well as a bashful blushing expression. His sword Excalibur with all of its beautiful details is included for him to wield, allowing for various different poses from the game!

The “Ascension” version also includes parts to recreate Invisible Air and his powered up version during his Noble Phantasm. He also comes with hood parts that allow you to pose him in his pre-ascension form as well as a cape to convert him into his third stage of ascension! Enjoy your very own knight in shining armor shrunk down to adorable Nendoroid size!

“Come now, Master. The world awaits you!!”

As you can see from the photos above, this version comes with hood parts as well as an “Invisible Air” sword! (●‘∀‘●)ﾉ”

In addition, the cape that is seen on his third ascension is also included, along with both a sword and effect sheet to pose him making use of his Noble Phantasm!

This is the same pose as above but with the cape, powered-up sword and effect sheet! The pose suddenly looks a lot more powerful!!

In other words, this alternate version will cost a little extra, but will come with everything that is included with Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype) as well as the following bonus parts!

◆ Cape Parts
◆ Noble Phantasm Effect Sheet
◆ Excalibur Powered-Up Version
◆ Invisible Air Sword Parts
◆ Hood Part (Head)
◆ Hood Part (Neck)

All the expression parts and other parts included with the standard version are also of course included! ε-(o´ω｀o)

▲ The hood can be used to create all sorts of stories!

Enjoy the knight in his enhanced form! ★
Nendoroid Saber/Arthur Pendragon (Prototype): Ascension Ver.

Also available for preorder on the 7th November!!

Nendoroid More: Robobot Armor & Kirby (Kirby: Planet Robobot)

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid More: Robobot Armor & Kirby!

From “Kirby: Planet Robobot” comes a Nendoroid sized version of the Robobot Armor that Kirby makes use of in the game – the armor stands approximately 15cm in height! Nendoroid Kirby can be placed inside the Robobot Armor just like he does in the game and the armor features articulation at all of its joints allowing for various dynamic action poses!

In addition, a special Planet Robobot version of Nendoroid Kirby that features an all new face plate to recreate the box art of the series is included with the armor, and a helmet part for Nendoroid Kirby is also included! Add this Robobot Armor to your collection and bring out the atmosphere of Dream Land more than ever before!

Kirby is back, and this time with his robot armor!

The Robobot armor that featured in the Kirby game “Kirby: Planet Robobot” is joining the Nendoroid More series in order to give Kirby even more playability than before!

The shiny metallic pink appearance together with the creamy white areas that gleam in the light… the mechanical appearance of the design has been captured with a sharp sculpt that also keeps that cute Kirby-like appearance as faithfully as possible!

▲ The shape of the Robobot armor is so cute!

In addition, as you would expect from the Nendoroid More: Robobot Armor & Kirby product name, A Nendoroid Kirby is also included with the armor

He comes with a special face plate that allows you to recreate the cover art of the game – with sharp eyes and an open mouth smile! (´□｀｡)

※ Only this single face plate is included with this Kirby!

As a side note, other than the facial expression the main body itself is identical to the previously released Nendoroid Kirby! The body has a rubber paint coating making him feel all round and smooth and the arms and legs are all attached with magnets that can be moved around freely for all sorts of poses! ♥

As a side note, the helmet that magically appears when Kirby rides in the armor is also included, but it is a separate part that can be removed if you would rather have the standard Kirby on display!

Anyway, let’s take a closer look at the Robobot Armor itself!!

▲ The cockpit has also been nicely detailed! ♪

While in the game the arms and legs of the Robobot armor are “floating” around the main body, this has been captured on the figure with use of large transparent joints! (っ’ω’)っ))

While still capturing the appearance from the game faithfully, this also allows the arms and legs to be moved around in all sorts of different ways for awesome poses!

If you move the joints around a little…

You can even pose it in the idle mode before Kirby jumps into the driver’s seat! This was one of the many highlights that the product’s planner is very proud of! ε-(o´ω｀o)

When you place Kirby into the cockpit you can remove his hand parts entirely to have him fit in just right, but you can even attach the hands while he is riding for even more different nuances while posing!☆

▲ Throwing his hands outside the cockpit!

Here is a size comparison with an iPhone6s!

▲You can even use it as a smartphone stand! You could even hold two!

All sorts of different poses with Kirby and his Robobot armor!
Nendoroid More: Robobot Armor & Kirby!

Up for preorder from tomorrow! ☆

Plus, we also have another option! 
Nendoroid More: Robobot Armor

The armor will also be sold by itself without Kirby, allowing those who already own Nendoroid Kirby to enjoy the armor without needing to get another Kirby! (Not that having two Nendoroid Kirbys is ever a bad idea!)

In addition, the helmet is also included with this version!

*Note that no face plate is included with this version.

Simply select the version that suits you! ♪

Keep your eyes on the Good Smile Company website for more details!
