figma Shoyo Hinata (Haikyu!!)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I was just watching a special recipe for tamago kake gohan and it made me rather hungry. I never knew there were so many different types to choose from, and even specialist restaurants!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at a figure celebrating his birthday on the 21st June…
figma Shoyo Hinata!

From the popular anime and manga series ‘Haikyu!!’ comes a figma of Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s ultimate decoy, Shoyo Hinata!

· The smooth yet posable figma joints allow you to act out a variety of different scenes.
· A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
· He comes with three face plates including a calm and composed expression, a serious expression to pose him during a match as well as a lively smiling expression.
· Accessories include a volleyball, net parts and a drink bottle to recreate various scenes from the court.
· An articulated figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

A figma of the “Ultimate Decoy” from Karasuno High School’s volleyball team!

The long awaited first Haikyu! figma is none other than Shoyo Hinata, Karasuno High School’s “Ultimate Decoy”! His iconic spiky hairstyle as well as the Karasuno High team uniform and even his shoes and other accessories have all been sculpted in lovely detail!

▲ He looks just as great from the back! ♪

The figma comes with a nice selection of interchangeable hand parts allowing for various poses, and he also comes with three different face plates to choose from! ε=(｡・д・｡)

– Composed Face –

Such a calm, composed yet valiant expression!

You can really see his devotion to volleyball through those eyes!

– Serious Face –

The perfect expression to capture Hinata going for a spike!

The sharp eyes and shouting mouth really bring out the tension of the shot! Another thing that really shines about this particular pose is when you look at his shoes from the back!! ヽ(ﾟ◇ﾟ )ﾉ

The sole design has been faithfully included!

This level of detail on an action figure is what makes the figma series so impressive!! There is also a joint included at the very tip of his toes for slightly different nuances while posing!

– Smiling Face Plate –

Such an innocent and cheerful smile! (*´Д｀*)ﾉ

His love for the sport comes out in his smile so beautifully… plus he also comes with parts that bring out the feel of the volleyball court even more!

– Volleyball Net & Ball –

An extra long figma stand is even included allowing you to display Hinata showing off his incredible jump! It’s a scene right out of the series! (´□｀｡)

The net is made with a clear sheet of plastic with lines printed on it! Simply just placing it beside the figma brings out the atmosphere so much more!

▲ Obviously the volleyball itself is also included with the figure! ♪

– Drink Bottle –

Wiping his mouth after a drink of water!!

The bottle also comes with a special hand that allows him to hold it with ease!

A total of three face plates, various accessories and interchangeable hand parts! So many display options for Hinata once he joins your collection! ♥

Here is is compared with his Nendoroid! (*´∀｀)ノ

▲figma is approx. 14.5cm, Nendoroid is approx. 10cm in height!

If anyone owns a Nendoroid but has never had a figma, this should give you a good feel for the size of a figma figure! (∩・∀・)∩

▲ Chibi and not chibi! They each have their own good points! ♪

For those who are unfamiliar with the figma series, you can find out more about them on the official figma site! Simply put, they are a collection of PVC action figures that incorporate both “Beauty” and “Articulation”! In other words they not only look great, but can also be posed in all sorts of different ways!

You can even pose them in original poses such as this sitting pose!

Be sure to move him around in all sorts of ways once he joins your collection!

Add the “Ultimate Decoy” that never gives up to your collection!

figma Kid the Phantom Thief & figma True Criminal (Detective Conan)

“Ladies and Gentlemen!“

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at FREEing’s latest figures in the figma series! Starting off with…

figma Kid the Phantom Thief!

From the anime series ‘Detective Conan’ comes a figma of Conan Edogawa’s rival – the Phantom Thief, Kid!

Using the smooth yet posable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
He comes with a variety of optional parts including his card gun, a playing card and a rose.
An articulated figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

“Yes, I am a thief. My job is to steal. Even if that means I must steal someone’s heart…”

The mysterious Phantom Thief that appears in unexpected places and at unexpected moments – Kid the Phantom Thief is joining the figma series!! ☆

⇒ PRODUCT DETAILS

His white suit, white top hat and white cape together with his monocle and that devious smile all capture him so perfectly in figma form!! The slightly frizzy hair has also been faithfully captured which should make fans of the Phantom Thief happy! (´□｀｡)

Even the clasps on the top of his cape have been faithfully included on the figma design!★

From the back you can also tell that the ‘fluttering’ appearance of the cape has been captured nicely! ♥

You can also see his two expressions in the photos above – a pretentious smiling face as well as an alternate smile with his mouth closed making him look a little more serious! ☆

Just looking at him makes me think of his amazing voice and lines from the series! The first character I came to love in the series would have to be Conan, but all the characters in the Detective Conan series all have such appealing designs!

Kid comes with plenty of optional parts too! ♪

You can see the Card Gun in the photos above, and he also comes with two playing cards – the Ace of Spades and a Joker, as well as a hand holding a rose as well as another hand with a dove! (●‘∀‘●)ﾉ”

Here we have a couple of photos to show off the parts!

◆ Dove ◆

▲ Kid’s expression looks so gentle with this pose!

◆ Rose ◆

▲ Taking this photo was so much fun! (灬ºωº灬)

Plus as you may have noticed from the photos above, his jacket comes with two different parts – one designed for when his hand is in his pocked and another for when he has his hands out! In other words whether or not the slit on the side of the jacket is open!

◆ Playing Cards ◆

▲The reverse side of both cards looks like the above! ♡

As you can see, the huge selection of parts allows for all sorts of different situations! Be sure to pose him by your side while imagining his smug lines from the series!!

Next up we have…

figma True Criminal!

From the anime series ‘Detective Conan’ comes an improved version of the previously released ‘figma Criminal’ – the true criminal is here with figma True Criminal!

Using the smooth yet posable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different crimes.
He comes with an all new expressionless face plate for even more ominous poses than before.
All the weapons included with the previous version are included together with an all new set of items including a crowbar.
An articulated figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

But the case wasn’t over yet… the true criminal had only just arrived!

The first criminal is never the true criminal! This upgraded version of the figma Criminal comes with a huge variety of new optional parts compared to the previously released version that was included with figFIX Conan Edogawa!

⇒ PRODUCT DETAILS

This True Criminal comes with a shouting expression and grinning expression similar to the previous version, but in addition he also comes with the expressionless face you can see above – perfect for those ominous scenes where the criminal stands behind an unknowing victim…

He also comes with a selection of new parts! ♪

A bunch of items that could easily be used as weapons… and some that don’t quite look so fearsome!

Let’s take a closer look at each of them! ε=(｡・д・｡)

◆ Crowbar ◆

Each of the parts comes with hand parts that allows the True Criminal to hold them!

◆ Pistol ◆

If you manage to get him balanced you can also make poses like this! Of course you can always make use of the figma stand for more stable poses! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

◆ Sword ◆

There were quite a lot of cases that have involved swords! There was that one where a dying message was carved into a dresser, or the case where Heiji’s mother showed just how amazing she could be… even the Crossroad in the Ancient Capital movie! There have been lots of swords in the series!

◆ Chloroform Cloth ◆

Look for an opening and knock out from behind! It doesn’t matter if you opponent is stronger if you have the element of surprise! As a side note, the Criminal’s target this time around is none other than the figma archetype next:he flesh color ver.! (/ω＼)

◆ Selfie Stick & Smartphone ◆

….. *Click* ★

(｀・ω・)｡oO （I can see this being a rather useful item!!)

It might not seem like a weapon, but you never know!! Even if it’s not a weapon you can now pose him in all sorts of selfie scenes as well!!

Anyway, to wrap things up…

figma Kid the Phantom Thief!

figma True Criminal!

Make sure you don’t miss out!!

Snow Miku Figures!! ♡

The theme for the 2017 Snow Miku was ‘Stars and Constellations of Hokkaido’s Winter’! We received a huge selection of entries for the design, but the winner this time around was this lovely illustration by Nishina!

In addition, we also got this adorable design for Rabbit Yukine illustrated by LF to display together with Snow Miku!

In the past, all the votes for these outfits were done on a livestream on NicoNico Douga, but this time around we made a special site to vote allowing fans all around the world to get their votes in! ♡

A big thank you to everyone who voted!!

Let’s take a look at how the figures have turned out this time around… starting with the Nendoroid!! ♪ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ三ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

Nendoroid Snow Miku: Twinkle Snow Ver.!

This Winter, Snow Miku will descend from the starry night sky!

This year’s Snow Miku has been sculpted by GSC’s Takuya Ichihashi! She has such a romantic and yet still so cute appearance to her!! The soft, airy design of her outfit with long sleeves and lovely frills, her sparkling twin-tails and those ribbons in her hair with a music score written along them… the details are amazing!!

She also comes with a magical baton to display her conducting a Winter symphony! ♪

There are also a lot of parts that bring out the ‘starry sky’ theme nicely!

Moving on, we also have…

figma Snow Miku: Twinkle Snow ver.!

Snow Miku’s twinkling symphony sounds through the starry skies!

This innocent Snow Miku with a brilliant smile on her face brings out that fairy-tail atmosphere so well!! The music stand and sheet music included with her are so amazingly detailed, and the winking expression on Rabbit Yukine’s face is also a lovely touch! ♪

Plus, she also comes with this!!

A special crescent-moon shaped base!! ☆

Other accessories and expressions will also be included, so stay tuned!!

Look forward to a romantic evening under the stars with Snow Miku figures this winter!!

These two items are currently being displayed in the Snow Miku 2017 Train currently on display in Hokkaido! The planner behind the figure Hamako went down to Hokkaido to take some photos of the bus as well as the display inside! Take a look! ♡

The train features photos of Nendoroid and figma Snow Miku as well as all new illustrations by the comet! Just look how cute this main visual of the 2017 Snow Miku is!! ♡

▲ I’m sure this train will take me away to a romantic star filled sky!

Inside the train you’ll find both figures on display! ヽ(´∀`｡)ﾉﾟ

▲ The display case even follows the starry skies theme!

From their intricate hair sculpts to the details on the cute little outfits! There is so much to enjoy on both of the figures!!

I can’t wait to add them to my collection!!

The adverts inside the train are also all Snow Miku related! ☆

▲ An advert for a DIVA Module too! ♪

The 2017 Snow Miku will also be transformed into…
A DIVA Module for the games!!

figma Masaru Hananakajima

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at WING’s latest figma product!

figma Masaru Hananakajima!

From Kyosuke Usuta’s legendary anime series ‘Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san’ comes a figma of the main character Masaru Hananakajima!

Using the smooth yet posable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
He comes with three face plates including a smiling face, a shouting expression with sparkling eyes and a winking expression to recreate his ‘want you’ pose!
The mascot character from the series ‘Meso’ is included and a drink can together with spraying effect parts are also included.
He also comes with alternate ‘trendy’ back hair parts as well as special parts to pose him with his zipper open to recreate various scenes from the series.
Careful attention has been given to all the finer details of the figure including the print on his shoes.
An articulated figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

From the masterpiece comedy manga ‘Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san’ comes a figma of the head of the Sexy Commando Club at Wakame High – Masaru Hananakajima! ♪

⇒ PRODUCT DETAILS

Masaru-san’s unique hairstyle looks great converted into figma size!

His collarbone and abs have also been carefully sculpted allowing fans to enjoy his sexy, fit body whenever they please with the figma!

The golden circles on his shoulders have also been nicely sculpted. together with his tight tucked-in shirt! But perhaps the most impressive detail is put into the print on the shoes!!

▲ I love details like this! ☆

But the figma aims to recreate more than just Masaru-san’s appearance! He comes with special articulation to recreate all sorts of scenes from the series!! For example…

＼ WANT YOU! ／

Bumping into someone’s shoulder at a 30° angle makes for the elegant yet jaunty ‘WANT YOU’ move! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ三ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

The playful winking expression just adds to the effect! You can’t be angry with that face!

I am using the figma archetype next:he GSC 15th anniversary color ver. as an example here, but you can of course recreate all sorts of WANT YOU scenes with your own figma collection! I look forward to seeing the photos!

Next up we have…

＼ TRENDY!! ／

The pose that how off the impulsive yet empty feeling of youth can also be recreated!!

A special alternate hair part is also included to complete this trendy pose! The alternate hair also looks quite nice from the front which you can see here!

▲ It’s so quick and easy to make poses with the figma series! ♪

Ah! As you probably noticed in the photo above, the figma also comes with the mascot-like character from the series – Meso! (*´ｪ`*)

＼ MUKYU! ♡ ／

▲ The surface has little bumps to recreate his fluffy appearance!

▲ The writing on the back of his cape is also included!
Plus the neck can move left and right for different poses!

（´-`）.｡oO（Plus on his back…!

There is a zipper!! A really detailed zipper!

He looks so soft and adorable and even comes with such amazing detail to boot!! But there is still more to enjoy with this figure…

(( ZZZZZZZZIP ))

The ultimate technique: Sexy Commando!!

To think you can recreate the open zipper pose with a figma!! Not to mention the glowing eyes and the shouting mouth to complete the completely indescribable scene!! (°Д°；≡°Д°；)

The above can be done by making use of this interchangeable pants part! ♪

The parts are all made with a soft, flexible plastic which still ensures that you can easily pose him in all sorts of different ways! You will need to remove his legs to swap out this part though! ★

Last but not least…

.｡.:*･ﾟFusshhhhhhh… .｡.:*･ﾟ

The image from the very first photo! Those who do not know the series may be slightly confused, but this isn’t what you think it is!! This is to recreate the scene where Masaru-san shakes a bottle and them opens it up with his back turned like above!! ★

Here we have the bottle with the splash parts! ♪

▲ The sculpt shows off the impressive force!!

Here we have Masaru with the symbol mark from the series! I drew it myself!! (∩・∀・)∩

▲ I tried my best to copy the original!

If you’re wondering how I got him to hold the paper up, I made use of the opened out fingers used for the trendy pose and folding the top of the paper around this thumbs!! I think it worked out quite nicely!

▲ This is how it looks from the side!

The amount of poses you can make are only limited by your imagination! Be sure to add the charming Masaru-san to your collection!!

figma Masaru Hananakajima!

He is currently up for preorder!!

figma Link & Zelda: Twilight Princess ver. (The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)

Strength, intelligence, courage… I hope I’ll be able to gain at least one of those traits eventually!

Hello everyone! My name is Isono, a member of Max Factory’s planning team! Today I’m going to be taking a look at these products that went up for preorder today!

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver. &
figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

(*Each sold separately!)

From The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess comes a figma main character and hero of the series Link together with the Princess of Hyrule, Zelda!

They’re both so amazing!! So… beautiful!!! With just one quick glance at the figures you can tell that the sculpting and painting of both is so amazingly detailed!! Let’s take a closer look at them one-by-one! Ladies first!

figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

▲ This first photo shows off her dignified expression as well as the sword that she holds at the ready!

▼ Let’s also take a look at the back…

She looks beautiful no matter what side you choose to look at her from! The somewhat mysterious atmosphere about the Twilight Princess version of Zelda has also been captured so nicely!

The first thing that really stands out about figma Zelda is the lovely colors! The paintwork on her accessories, dress and skirt almost all make use of a pearl paint which gives her outfit a silky, gorgeous shine. That said, the shine is by no means a glittery effect, but more of an elegant gleam that creates a lovely dignified look at captures Zelda beautifully!

By the way, although you can’t see them in these photos, Zelda’s pants and boots have also been faithfully sculpted and painted underneath the dress!

▼Another thing to note is the intricate changes in color all over the figure!

The arrows all point to areas that have been painted with the utmost attention to detail!

▲ Next up we have her smiling expression!

Such a gentle smile that just overflows with both kindness and beauty! The next point I want to make everyone aware of is the accessories and ornaments on her outfit… the shoulder armor, crown and various other parts are all made using 3D sculpting! The fact that they are made this way allows the more intricate patterns and shapes to be preserved!

▲ The Bow of Light she used in the battle with Ganondorf is also included!

The bow also of course features pearl paint! The bow and arrow itself has also been beautifully sculpted from top to bottom creating stunning beauty that you would normally never associate with a weapon! The skirt is also articulated allowing for a wide range of different posing options!

figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

She comes with two expressions: a standard expression and smiling expression as well as two accessories: a sword and the Bow of Light!

She will be available for ¥5,600 (Before Tax)!

Next up, we move onto the hero of our story…

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver.

▲ This confident expression with tense eyes always leaves such a strong impression!

The build of his body has been captured so nicely showing off just how handsome this version of Link is!! The overall sober tone of colors used makes him look a little more grown-up compared to the previous figma figures of Link! Let’s take a closer look at his heroic outfit!!

▼ The arrows here show the chain mail armor made with 3D sculpting!

You can see each of the little chain links creating a lovely texture for the armor!

▼There us also a joint located in the hat, which allows it to be moved around both horizontally and vertically!

▲ Next up we have a face with clenched teeth!

This glaring expression is perfect for combat poses and instantly makes Link look more skilled with his weapons! The series classics have been included with the Master Sword and Hylian Shield both included!

NAMCO Arcade Machine Collection (Tank Battalion / PAC-MAN / Galaga / Galaxian / RALLY-X)

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

We’ve reached the months of the year where a cup of warm tea really hits the spot! Because of that my percentage of Japanese snacks has increased quite substantially! (Mostly dango!)

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at one of FREEing’s items that went up for preorder earlier today…

NAMCO Arcade Machine Collection
(Tank Battalion / PAC-MAN / Galaga / Galaxian / RALLY-X)!

Legendary NAMCO brand arcade game machines are being transformed into 1/12th scale miniatures! The game line-up includes classic games such as Tank Battalion, PAC-MAN, Galaga, Galaxian and RALLY-X!

Using the original designs of the arcade machines the shape and size together with the placement of the joysticks and buttons and even the artwork have all been miniaturized as faithfully as possible! The machines can easily be used together with 1/12th scale figures to have your favourite figures playing the classic NAMCO games!

*Each sold separately

Legendary arcade game machines recreated in detailed miniature size!

I’m sure there are many figure fans out there that will remember these arcade machines! They have all been faithfully converted into 1/12th scale miniature size for fans to enjoy as is, or to display with similar sized figures such as figmas! ★

⇒ Product Details

The actual frame of the machines are obviously made to look just like the originals, but that’s not all! The actual screen, the position of the buttons and even the area to insert the coins are all intricately made and faithful to the original machines!!

These are all ‘upright’ video arcade machines, which simply means they are made to be played while standing! It brings back memories of the retro games from the movie ‘Wreck-It Ralph’ for me! (∩・∀・)∩

The line-up includes these five games!

– Tank Battalion –

– PAC-MAN –

– Galaga –

– Galaxian –

– RALLY-X –

（。´-`）.｡oO（ I know of PAC-MAN and Galaga thanks to the movie Pixels, but I honestly don’t know anything about the other three… but they are so colorful and the 8-bit graphics look so cute!）

This should give a better idea of the size! ♪

▲ The 1/12 scale matches with figma figures nicely! ☆

The joysticks and buttons on the machines have all been elaborately included on the designs, so posing the machines with someone to play on them creates a rather realistic scene!

▲ I can just imagine the clicky-clacky sounds of the joystick moving!

Plus if you line-up a number of the machines you can recreate a complete game arcade for your figures!! This should allow for all sorts of fun situations in the figure world!! ヽ(゜∀゜ヽ三ノ゜∀゜)ノ

▼Here we have The Thinker carefully thinking which game to play with his ¥100 coin!

▼ “Man… this guy is good!” The kind of thing most people think when watching someone play.

As you can see they are awesome to display just by themselves, but using them as accessories to figures can create a lovely world for your figures to come alive in! (/ω＼)

Add some classic arcade games to your figure collection!

NAMCO Arcade Machine Collection!
(Tank Battalion / PAC-MAN / Galaga / Galaxian / RALLY-X)

Currently up for preorder! ♥

Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 20th October 2016 at 12:00JST! Don’t miss out! ε=(｡・д・｡)

Nendoroid Kashima & figma Hikaru Shidou

Today’s Main Feature!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

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

Nendoroid Kashima! ♥︎

From the popular browser game ‘Kantai Collection -KanColle-‘ comes a Nendoroid of the 2nd Katori-class Training Cruiser – Kashima! She comes with three face plates including a standard expression, a half-damaged expression and a winking expression.

Although she may be a training cruiser she still comes with effect parts to display her firing her turrets in the case of combat! She is also the first Nendoroid to include a Type 94 Depth Charge Projector which even comes with effect parts to display her firing off a depth charge – training cruisers are not to be underestimated! Her searchlight also comes with an interchangeable part to display it lit up!

A lunchbox filled with sandwiches and well as a gratin are included as the usual food parts, and she even comes with a selection of parts to recreate her Christmas graphic from the game! Enjoy Kashima by your side in all sorts of different poses!

“Training cruiser Kashima, on duty! Ufufu.”

The latest in the KanColle Nendoroid series! The 2nd Katori-class Training Cruiser Kashima is joining the Nendoroids! Just like the previously released Katori she has a rather tight-fitting outfit, but unlike her older sister she is wearing a pleated skirt which gives her a more casual look! Plus just like her older sister her impressive boobies have been faithfully included even in Nendoroid size!

The ship parts on her back, binoculars in her hand and the Type 94 Depth Charge Projector have all been so intricately sculpted, and the pouch in the shape of a ship’s bridge makes use of a strap made from actual cord and her lovely fluffy twintails are fitted with joints which means you can pose them swinging to the left and right to better match your poses! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Plus she comes with all sorts of lovely optional parts! Let’s take a closer look! (/ω＼)

“Enemy? Is it an enemy ship?“

First up are these firing effect parts!

Plus she is also the very first KanColle Nendoroid to include a Type 94 Depth Charge Projector, and she even comes with parts to display it firing! (´□｀｡)

“Kyaa-!“

You can combine the depth charge parts with the expression based on her half-damaged pose to recreate a scene where she accidentally set off a depth charge! (・∀・)

Plus if you’ve been paying close attention you’ll also note that the searchlight on her ship parts comes with interchangeable parts to display it lit up! They are pretty small parts so be careful not to misplace them!

Plus, as with all the KanColle Nendoroids before her, she also comes with food parts! This time around two different parts, the first of which is some sandwiches for lunch! ♥︎

△ Looks like some egg and ham sandwiches!

Then for dinner we have a Kashima special – Chicken Gratin! ★

△ The little bread crumbs on the top are such a nice touch!

In other words you can enjoy all sorts of Kashima’s home-cooked meals filled with love! But that’s not all…

“Admiral! Merry Christmas!“

She even comes with a completely interchangeable upper body part to transform her into the limited edition Christmas version seen in the game!! The hand-knitted red sweater has such an intricate little pattern!! (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾♡

In addition to the body she also comes with a Christmas hat with accessory as well as a fluffy looking Christmas cape to really complete the festive appearance!

△ She pretty much comes with a completely alternate body!

As you can see above it suits the winking expression really well, but you can also switch out for the half-damaged expression…

…! (There are no words!)

Simply pick the expression that you think suits her best!! ((＞д＜))

Add the small and cute training cruiser to your collection!
Nendoroid Kashima!

She’ll be up for preorder from the tomorrow! ♡

As usual, preorders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will also include a ‘Nendoroid Kashima’ Special Box Sleeve & Special Nendoroid Base as a bonus! (●´ω｀●)

Be sure to consider it when preordering! ★

Plus another product up for preorder tomorrow!

Max Factory’s…
figma Hikaru Shidou!☆

The legendary Magic Knight is joining the figma series!

She comes with a cheerful smile, a shouting expression and even a sword made from the legendary mineral ‘Escudo’!

Plus she also comes with a grinning expression that captures her innocent personality so nicely! ♡

Last but not least she also comes with hair parts with cat ears to recreate the scenes in the series where she would sprout the kitty ears!

Be sure to check the GSC Official Site or figma Official Site tomorrow for more info! ♪

figma Samus Aran: Zero Suit ver.

Hello everyone! I.G. Sakai from Max Factory’s planning team here!

Today I’m going to be taking a look at this figma from the popular action game ‘METROID Other M‘…
figma Samus Aran: Zero Suit ver.!

At first glance you might think this is a scale figure as the joints don’t stand out at all on her design – her unique body line has been preserved perfectly in figma form! Not to mention that the color of her Zero Suit has also been faithfully retained!

Her healthy looking body as well as the tight metallic suit make for such a treat to look at, and those stomach muscles really go to show off just how fit she is! Her main weapon, the handgun is rather small, but very intricately detailed!

The Zero Suit from the back… quite the view!

In this photo the handgun is holstered by her hip!

A little clip is included like this to be attached and removed whenever you switch between having her handgun drawn or holstered!

The shoulder and hip joints make use of drawer joints which allow for all sorts of epic action poses! Her ponytail also has a ball joint to match up with the poses!

Her first alternate expression is this Glaring Expression!

She also comes with Adam’s Helmet to recreate the Bottle Ship escape scene!

She even comes with short hair parts to recreate the flashback scenes from the game! The expression here is her Smiling Expression!

Here she is displayed with the previously released figma Samus Aran which was wearing the power suit! As you can see, she comes with hand parts to recreate her classic thumbs-up pose as well!

figma Samus Aran: Zero Suit ver.
She is up for preorder from today!!

Make sure you don’t miss out! Preorders at the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 13th July 2016!:

figma Shizuo Heiwajima

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

It’s rather nice and warm today! Weather like this makes me want to take a walk along the Kanda river and enjoy the sun!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at the ORANGE ROUGE item…

figma Shizuo Heiwajima!

From the anime series Durarara!! x2 comes a figma of Ikebukuro’s strongest man, Shizuo Heiwajima!

The strongest man in Ikebukuro is joining the figma series!

The classy bartender clothes and sunglasses recreate the unique look of the man that is not to be messed with – Shizuo Heiwajima! His rather slender appearance and rather simple expression make you realize just how much his personality changes when showing off his more angry side!

He with the sunglasses, hand parts holding a cigarette and his orange cellphone! (/ω＼)

△ The hand holding the cigarette is included for both the left and right hands! ♪

You can also choose to display him without the sunglasses!

It gives you a better look at his Shizu-chan’s cool and calm eyes! (´□｀｡)

△ He also comes with a signpost to wield in his battles!

Shizu-chan stands around 155mm in height, which is rather tall for a figma!

△ Displayed with an iPhone6 for size comparison! ♪

It’s always fun to compare the heights of characters in the figma series! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Shizu-chan also comes with a grinning expression and an angry expression, but unfortunately they were already sent off to the factory for production when I started to write this blog!! You can see the poses you can make with them over on the official product page – posed angrily jumping to punch his opponent or smiling with a bit of a teasing grin!

You can see these and more over on the product page! (●´ω｀●)

Add Ikebukuro’s strongest to your collection!

figma Shizuo Heiwajima!

He is currently up for preorder!

Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP are open from the 30th March at 21:00JST!! Don’t miss out! っ(｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ
