Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

We’re already into the second week of the year, so this already feels a little bit out of date, but…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Over the last year Kahotan Blog reached its 1000th update and was filled with all sorts of new figures, and this year I will once again be bringing everyone all sorts of figure reviews and news!! I hope everyone is looking forward to the 2018 releases! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

The first blog of 2018…

Will be a look at GSC’s Happy New Year Card!! ♪

This time around we went for a simpler design compared to some of the more eccentric cards we have sent out in the past! ☆

▲Clean yet stylish! I think it suits GSC nicely!

However, inside the envelope…

Are all sorts of stickers!!! ε-(o´ω｀o)

Back in primary school sticker books were really popular, so seeing a huge set of stickers come out of the envelope is more than enough to get me excited!

There are a total of seven different stickers, each one representing some of the new challenges that GSC is currently undertaking! ♪

Let’s take a closer look at each of them! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ三ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

◆Nendoroid x DOLL◆

A brand new idea coming to the Nendoroid world soon!

This plan was first revealed at Wonder Festival 2017 (Summer) – a new project that will combine the world of dolls and Nendoroids! Stay tuned for more info!!

◆Harmonia bloom◆

◆DX Excalibur Proto◆

◆model：d proto◆

huke x Masaki Apsy x GOOD SMILE COMPANY!

This is an all new plastic model body project!

▲Displayed at the 57th Japan Hobby Show

There is still a lot of mystery surrounding this product, but for now just think of it as something like the mid-point between figures and plastic models!

And that’s all!

2018 will feature these and more new ideas to come! We hope you will enjoy them and continue to support us throughout the year!!
