Dress-up Chibi Menma & Shiro: Swimsuit style

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I sometimes buy splitting cheese snacks and instead of splitting them I eat them all connected together. The luxurious way!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at some of the items currently up for preorder from AQUAMARINE! First up…

△ A beautiful young girl with light coloured hair holding ‘the flower’.

The 1/8th scale…

Dress-up Chibi Menma!

From the popular anime series, ‘Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day’ comes a figure of Meiko Honma, also known as Menma! The figure is based on a special illustration that features the young Menma dressed-up in a gorgeous dress.

Her skirt makes use of a clear material, and each of the little ribbons in her hair as well as all the little flowers patterns on her dress have all been carefully included to create a figure filled with highlights no matter where you look. In her hands he holds ‘The Flower’ while she skips around with a cute smile on her face. Enjoy the adorable Menma right by your side!

“The kind of like that means I want to become a bride!”

Menma dressed up in a rather mature looking one-piece dress! She is in a cute pose balanced up on a single leg with her skirt, ribbons and hair all blowing about in the wind – all intricately sculpted for fans to enjoy! ♥︎

The skirt makes use of a translucent effect to recreate the two layers of the dress, which really give the outfit a lovely, unique appearance! ♪

Menma’s long hair as all been tied up with lots of little blue ribbons, each painted with a bit of a glossy paint to give them a shining, fancy appearance that suits her so nicely! (●´ω｀●)

△ This angle makes her look rather grown-up!

The innocent, adorable Menma all dressed-up to join your collection!

△ This rainbow-colored hair and petite body can only be…!

The 1/7th scale…

Shiro: Swimsuit style!

From ‘No Game No Life’ comes a figure of the young princess of Imanity – Shiro wearing her swimsuit! On her head she wears an intricately detailed crown with her beautiful multicolored hair flowing out around to the sides. Together with her cute swimsuit, she is wearing a hoodie that is slowing slipping off her shoulders.

Her intricate hands and feet have been preserved with the utmost detail, and the somewhat wistful look in her eyes and sullen expression have been carefully included to capture her personality in the figure. The various different colors and gradients across the figure all come together to create an unbelievably cute Shiro for fans to enjoy in their collection!

“…how do I… look?”

The red ribbon on her white bikini really catches the eye! She looks like she is trying to hide her embarrassment, but her mysterious charm has been beautifully sculpted in this figure for all to notice! (/ω＼)

She covers up quite a lot of skin with the hoodie and her thigh high socks, but her rather revealing swimsuit still shows off her front rather nicely!

△ The ribbons on the side! A rather bold choice of swimsuit!

△ I also love the way her stomach sticks out a little!

The attention to detail is also quite outstanding! The inside of the hoodie even has a chequered pattern painted on, and the teeth of the zipper are very intricate! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Her unforgettable hair is also nicely arranged in a style that suits her swimsuit look very nicely! The flow of the hair is beautiful!! ♪

△ The standing pose is brought to life by the clothes and movement of the hair! ☆

The princess of Imanity dressed in her swimsuit – ready to join your collection!

Shimakaze: Major Damage Ver.

Today’s main feature…!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

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

Shimakaze: Major Damage Ver.!☆

From Kantai Collection -KanColle- comes a 1/8th scale figure of the destroyer, Shimakaze! She has been sculpted in her major damage version with a look of surprise and embarrassment on her face as her clothes and socks are torn away at the damage!

The original illustration from the game has been faithfully sculpted into figure form, even including the three cute Rensouhou-chan characters also taking damage around her! Be sure to dock her into your navy base!

“Hawaa~! I never thought they’d manage to hit me…!”

The ship that boasts one of the top class speeds of all the Kanmusu, Zekamashi aka Shimakaze has been transformed into a rather revealing major damage scale figure by AQUAMARINE! (´□｀｡)

The figure is filled with so many points where you just can’t see that little bit further… it plays with your imagination so very well!! Let’s take a look from a couple of different angles and you’ll get exactly what I mean!

This is how she looks from the back!

As she is posed with her legs lifted up, the figure does have a bit of a compact feeling to it… but then when you look at the long hair flowing around her ship parts and all the Rensouhou-chans that are posed around her, you’ll notice that there is a lot more volume to the figure than first meets the eye! (｡・д・｡)

A look from the side shows her ship parts nicely!

Plus it also shows off even more of the major damage!

I won’t say too much, but as you can see even the areas that were never visible in the original illustration have been carefully thought out for the figure’s design! ♪

The rather unique pose with her hips thrust forward is also very enjoyable from the side! This is what makes the world of figures so enjoyable!!

You can enjoy Shimakaze from all sorts of different angles! (●´ω｀●)

Another area that really grabs my attention is the way the skin sinks in around her torn knee-high socks!!

Plus the curves of her hips, stomach and chest…

Her belly button is also perfect!!

Also take note of her expression! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Shimakaze is normally very confident, so at times like this she has a cute little blush on her face! That pouting expression is so cute too!She’s trying so hard to hide it, which is just the way I like it!!

The three included Rensouhou-chans are also all adorable!

△ The screws on the back and even their little arms have lovely details!

Not only do you get to enjoy Zegamashi-chan, but all three of the Rensouhou-chans as well!

Be sure to take a nice close look at them once they join your collection! ☆
Filled with details and a pleasure to look at from any angle!

The 1/8th Scale…

Shimakaze: Major Damage Ver.

She is currently up for preorder! ♡

Golden Darkness -Trance of Darkness-

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

When I eat taiyaki I always eat from the head first. The best filling is without a doubt red and sweet bean paste! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at the product currently up for preorder…

Golden Darkness -Trance of Darkness-

From the anime series with a second season coming in July 2015, ‘To Love-Ru Darkness’ comes a figure of Yami-chan, also known as ‘Golden Darkness’, transformed into her forbidden Darkness form! The figure has been intricately sculpted by the proficient sculptor, Abira.

Her long hair flowing around her is complimented by the pose that makes her appear to be floating in the air. Her rather sinister horns and claws are starkly contrasted by her cute expression and very revealing outfit, creating a very naughty looking Yami-chan for fans to enjoy in their collection!

The ultimate transformation that will send the universe into chaos! (`・д´・ ；)

Yami also known as Golden Darkness has been made into a lovely 1/8th scale figure transformed into her ‘Darkness’ form! Even though she has posed floating in mid air, the figure is perfectly stable! The mischievous  ‘Darkness‘ look has been captured so perfectly on that face too! ♡

A lower angle look from the back! <○><○>

Yami-chan’s long hair flows all around her body together with her outfit!

The sculpting really captures a perfect instant! The dynamic appearance is amazing! ε=(｡・д・｡)

I doubt there is anyone… but for those wondering why I decided to take a photo from a low angle, it was to show that the details normally hidden behind her hair have been beautifully sculpted too! Just take a look for yourself!

Another area that shows off the intricate details is her cute little toes! (●´ω｀●)

All the bumps and indents from her heel to the tips of her toes are lovely!

This is the kind of detail that separates scale figures from other categories!

Everything about this Yami-chan is gorgeous, but I really love the area around her thighs and hips!

They bring out the ladylike beauty of Yami-chan’s lovely figure! Be sure to take a nice close look if you choose to add her to your collection!

△ If you look close you can see the bumps of her rib cage!

Whoever thought that we would see the Yami wearing an outfit like this when she is so against perverted things…!

The outfit shows off so much skin…

…and the mischievous smile just makes it perfect!

Another thing to note is that while her skin looks lovely and soft… the contrast with her rather scary right hand is quite an eye catcher!

The sharp claws twisting around really look they could rip through anything! It really adds to the ‘little devil’ personality… creating a lovely contrast to her soft skin and smiling expression! Delicious!  *nom* (○´ㅂ`○) *nom*

Enjoy the ultimate transformation right by your side!

Yukikaze: Major Damage Ver.

“H-Hey!! I-I will not sink!!”

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

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

Yukikaze: Major Damage Ver.!☆

From the popular anime series ‘Kantai Collection -KanColle-‘ comes a scale figure of the ‘miraculous’ destroyer, Yukikaze! She has been sculpted based on the major damage illustration that she takes in game after taking a large amount of damage!

The ship parts all over her design have sculpted down with great attention to detail, and eve the smaller details such as the lens of the binoculars are made with translucent parts to faithfully produce a highly detailed figure. The tear in her eye is made using translucent resin for a very faithful rendition of the original illustration. She may be damaged, but she will never lose her determination! Enjoy displaying Yukikaze by your side!

Ooooooohhh!! (´□｀｡)

The so-called ‘miracle ship’ and Kagero-class destroyer #8, Yukikaze is becoming a 1/8th scale thanks to AQUAMARINE! She is posed in the slightly sexy pose that she takes after taking an attack in the game! All the details from the original illustration and more are included on the figure! Yukikaze is known for her innocent look and carefree smile, making this figure a bit of a contrast to her normal appearance! ♡

This is how she looks from the back!

The contrast between the soft skin and the metallic ship parts is always such a pleasure to see! 

The reverse side of her binoculars are also very nicely detailed! Note the eye pieces as well as the leather-like strap around her neck! The ribbon on her chest that you can see blowing about even from the back also gives a nice dynamic feeling to the figure. ♪

Plus as if the ship parts and lovely skin weren’t enough, she also has a lovely sailor suit blowing about in the wind! Let’s take a look from another angle!

Just look at that lovely see-throughness!!

Also note how the wet outfit is sticking onto her skin on the back and her upper arm! This isn’t actually see-through at all… it’s all done by paint and sculpting! It’s amazing what can be done – it looks so real! (/ω＼)

Taking a look from a little lower…

She is pulling down on her skirt in embarrassment…
which only makes the shape of her body stand out more!

Even the reverse side of the cannon and torpedo launcher are also so nicely detailed! It’s these kind of details that make scale figures really stand out from the rest! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Plus, as I’m sure you’ve already noticed…

They’re even labelled with her name!

Yukikaze has a rather petite build, but when you take a close look she actually has a rather shapely body!

Plus I just love the way the skin is squished by the panties!! You really need to have a look at it for yourself! It is so amazingly sculpted!! (´□｀｡)

Another area I personally love is her calves!

They look so smooth and soft! Perfect for a growing girl like Yukikaze!

The bumps and turns all along the legs are such a pleasure to look at! Plus if he go right back up to the top, you can enjoy her rather unique radar-on-head fashion! This angle also gives a nice look at the creases in her outfit! (・∀・)

She really is a figure that you can enjoy from the top of the head to the tip of the toes! Be sure to add her to your collection!! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Saber of “Red” -Mordred-

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I don’t think I can even do a single push-up… the movement alone seems impossible for my body, nevermind the stamina needed… I’m also just as confident in my inability to do push-ups!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at AQUAMARINE’s latest item that went up for preorder today…

Saber of “Red” -Mordred-!

From the novel ‘Fate/Apocrypha’ comes a figure of Saber of “Red” -Mordred-!

She is posed slinging her red jacket over her back, as she looks over her shoulder with a confident smile on her face! The figure is based on an illustration by the novel’s illustrator, Ototsugu Konoe, faithfully keeping the details of her boots and jacket as well as her tough appearance.

The casual clothes she wears shows off the amazing curves of her body as well as her healthy abs! The pendant and bracelet chain are made from metal parts bringing out a premium, realistic appearance even to the smaller parts of the figure. Be sure to add this charming, fearless Saber to your collection!

Hyahooooo!! (´□｀｡)

Three Sizes: B73/W53/H76 – and she is ready to show off her slender body and lovely curves to everyone!

A 1/7th scale figure of the Knight of Treachery with a confident smile across her face! ♡  She holds her red biker’s jacket as she turns to look over her shoulder with an almost mischievous look to her! She’s beautiful! (*ﾟｰﾟ*)

The expression is one thing… but just look here…!!

Such a beautiful body…!

Just look at the slight outline of her abs which have been so beautifully sculpted!!

You can’t help but want to run your finger along them to feel the intricate little bumps!! You can also tell she has some muscle on her upper arm!

But the front is just the start! From the back…!

Those shoulder bones and the line down the center of her back!! <○><○>

The intricate little bumps have been sculpted so naturally that they look incredibly realistic! Also note the way the bra strap is applying pressure to her skin, or the hot pants that are cutting it close in terms of length!

While her body is certainly the first thing most of our eyes jump to, also note the detail of her clothes and accessories! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

△ The shining pendant around her neck makes use of a real chain!

△ Similarly, the bracelet on her arm also has a real chain!

The texture of the metal chain contrasts against her soft white skin so very beautifully! ♡ Speaking of texture… just look at the jacket she holds over her shoulder!! Σ(･ω･ﾉ)ﾉ

The glossy appearance you should expect from a leather jacket has been recreated beautifully through the gradient paintwork! (●´ω｀●)

Each of the teeth of the zipper are so intricately sculpted, and the fluttering movement of the jacket really makes it look as if she has just slung it over her shoulder! The dynamic movement adds even more to the realistic effect of the figure! ♪

Also note the unique design of her boots! ε=(｡・д・｡)

△ Why is it that cute girls can look so good in such masculine shoes?!

An incredible body, wonderful expression and intricate outfit all very carefully put together for an amazing figure! ♡

AQUAMARINE’s cute and stylish Saber!

Fate Testarossa: Swimsuit Parka style & Twitter Header Images!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

It has finally become cold enough to add a blanket to my futon… but it makes it all the more difficult to get up in the morning!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at a product by AQUAMARINE announced earlier this month…

Fate Testarossa: Swimsuit Parka style! ♥︎

From “Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha: The Movie 2nd A’s” comes a figure of Fate Testarossa wearing a blue bikini.She has been sculpted with a gentle smile on her face, with her white Parka carefully sculpted and her partner ‘Bardiche: Assault Mode’ by her side – his sharp, black appearance contrasting against Fate’s soft white skin. She is posed leaning over with Bardiche held behind her back, showing off her youthful curves and blond hair – all the charms that fans of the A’s series have come to love!

Oooooohhhh!!! (´□｀｡)

A lovely blue swimsuit and white Parka!

Not to mention her dazzlingly bright smile!

The blond twin-tailed magical girl prodigy Fate Testarossa as a 1/8th scale figure in a beautiful blue bikini! ★

This is the Fate from the second movie, so she still has her very youthful looks and innocent smile!!

This is how she looks from the back! ♪

Her soft and supple looking skin is contrasted beautifully with the sharp, mechanical look of Bardiche Assault beside her! The fact that the difference in texture between two things can be brought out so nicely through sculpting when the material is actually the same never ceases to amaze me! (｀・ω・´)ゞ

The way her Parka is blowing up in the wind also allows a peek at her lovely thighs and bottom!! Just as the product description says, it really ‘shows off her youthful curves’! 

The curves around her hips look so very soft and touchable!! 

The ups and downs on her waist have been very carefully sculpted!
*nom* (๑´ㅂ`๑) *nom*

Taking a look from the side you can also see how her stomach is sticking out a little! Lovely!

She is definitely a figure that has lots of eye candy to enjoy once you add her to your collection! <○><○>

Just look at her… from her cute bottom, her hair and Parka blowing in the wind and the delicate little fingertips holding onto Bardiche… there are so many little details that really show off AQUAMARINE’s sculpting prowess!!

While the pose itself is a rather simple standing pose, having all these little details to the body and outfit makes it an item that fans simply cannot miss out on! ♪ 

Also in case anyone missed out on the announcement, brand new Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha anime series has been announced, so I’m sure we can expect some more wonderful figures soon! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

A figure filled with Fate’s innocent and beautiful charm! ♥︎

Fate Testarossa: Swimsuit Parka style

She is up for preorder now!! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

During the last Kahotan Post Office I asked everyone to send me some photos that I could use for my 2014 Autumn Twitter header! (Kahotan Post Office #1)

A big thank you to everyone who send in photos!!

As I mentioned on Twitter the other day, I decided on my Autumn Twitter header!

The header photo was taken by Orchidcat! ♪

* I had to trim out a bit of the image for the header size
This picture has been taken because I love Mami, and I’ve always thought that she is a big fan of the tea, coffee, sweets and other kind of pastries. I put her on the Wagnaria restaurant with a lot of food and drinks, as I think she would like to be in an autumn refreshing afternoon :)Picture name: Mami’s date

Orchidcat send the photo in all the way from Spain!! I’m so glad to see that Mami-san is loved all over the world!! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

I received so many photos that deciding was very difficult, but this one really caught my attention! (ﾉω･､)

That said, I want to show off some of the other photos I received too, so here we go!

Chris Yukine: Bunny style

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

The other day I went out to buy a costume for the upcoming Halloween Live Broadcast! Although the broadcast will be a bit before Halloween on the 23rd October!

Today I’ll be taking a look at a figure announced by AQUAMARINE last week!

Chris Yukine: Bunny style!


From the anime series that has claimed fans all over the world, ‘Senki Zesshou Symphogear’ comes a 1/8th scale PVC figure of Chris Yukine! The figure features Chris dressed up in a bunny outfit, based on an illustration by the character designer and animation director of the series, Satoru Fujimoto! The illustration was used on the cover for the ‘Staff Book’ sold at the Satelight Booth at Comic Market 85.

The original illustration only featured the upper front half of Chris, so Satoru specially drew the remaining areas in order for the full design to be transformed into a figure by sculptor Abira. Each and every change was also supervised by Satoru himself to ensure a faithful rendition of the original! Everything from her curvy bottom, bountiful bosom and long slender legs have been beautifully sculpted for fans to enjoy! Even the slight frown on her face has been faithfully preserved!

Oooooohhh!! (ﾉ*´Д｀)ﾉ

As if Chris-chan wasn’t already cute enough, she is now coming to us as a 1/7th scale figure in a sexy bunny girl outfit! ♪

Just look at the way her hips are twisted… or that embarrassed look on her face! Not to mention the shiny pink outfit and sexy stockings creating a very sexy appearance!

The figure is based on an illustration by the character designer and animation director of the series, Satoru Fujimoto, and sculpted beautifully into the 3D world by Abira (Purazuma Houriki Mokei)! The figure is released by AQUAMARINE!

Which means of course that as of this month, AQUAMARINE’s products are bring distributed by GOOD SMILE COMPANY!

So let’s get right back onto the figure!

This is how she looks from the back! ♡

From the back you get a good look at her long and curly hair which also features a lovely purple gradient! The hair is also sculpted to match the flow of her twisting hips, adding to the dynamic feeling of the pose! ♪

The stockings are also painted so nicely!
You can tell how soft the skin underneath them is!

The sacred relic ‘Ichii-Bal’ is also included! (in a very comfortable place!)

Her bountiful bosom is definitely where one’s eyes tend to jump, but there are many more highlights when you take a look! Just look at the detail on the ribbon around her neck, the bottle in her hands… or even the delicate fingers holding that bottle! <○><○>

Even from this angle her chest is the most noticeable!

Delicious!! _(°ω°｣ ∠)_

I really need to try and get off of these boobies now! Let me start by taking a look another area that I personally love…

That hip-bone sticking out at the sides!

You don’t often see Chris-chan is an outfit that shows her hip-line so nicely! ♪

Being able to see bare skin that isn’t normally visible is always such a treat! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

The bare skin isn’t the only thing though – the detail on her shiny pink outfit is also lovely! Just look at those arm and leg bands… and that fully bunny tail that I really wish was really fluffy! I want to touch it! ♥︎

The frills on her arm and leg bands are very intricately sculpted!!
ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

All this combined with that pouting expression and glamorous outfit!

It’s all so enchanting!!

Chris-chan is known more for her victorious smiles…  

\ Making this expression all the more impactful! /

*nom nom nom* (๑´ㅂ`๑) *nom nom nom*

The body may be full of highlights, but her face is also superbly done! ♡

Grab the cute and sexy bunny girl for your own collection!
