Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I have completely memorized the lyrics to ‘Onegai! Cinderella’ now! Next I’m moving onto ‘Star!!’! Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at Max Factory’s…

figma Rin Shibuya:
CINDERELLA PROJECT ver.!

Hyahoooooooooooi!! (*´Д｀)=з

The long-haired ‘cool beauty’ high-school idol Rin Shibuya is joining the figma series! ♡

Everything about the figma captures Rin beautifully! The necklace shown by her loose neck tie, her cardigan mini-skirt with beautiful long legs extending out from it…! Nnot to mention that perfect expression! ♥︎

One of the Winter Wonder Festival 2013 (Winter) exclusive items was figma Shibuya Rin, but the difference with this figma is that she is based on the designs from the IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls anime series, and not the game! There are many subtle difference and brush-ups from the previous version – the entire sculpt has also been redone from the ground up!

Let’s start with a look at her expressions! 

That mysterious, mature charm is wonderful!!

The expression is also rather different to the previous version of Rin! But there is much more to Rin then this!

She also comes with a singing expression!! (●´ω｀●)

The gap between this emotional singing face and the previous disinterested expression is amazing!

You can easily switch out to the idol side with a quick change of expressions! Just pick the look you prefer! But that’s not all…. her third expression is another leap of character!

An embarrassed expression!☆ 

An ever so slight blush with a downcast look! This will allow for all sorts of difference scenes!! While you can obviously enjoy recreating scenes from the show, this also opens up so many options for original situations! ε=(｡・д・｡)

Plus…

Her beloved dog Hanako is included as an optional part!! ☆

The pose differs from the version included with figma Rin Shibuya!! (´□｀｡)

This time around she also comes with a lead, allowing you to pose Hanako and Rin out for walkies!! Other optional parts include her smartphone along with earphones!★

Be sure to check the official product page for more details tomorrow!! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Another thing that you may have noticed from the photos above, is that she comes with arms that allow you to display her with either hand in or out of her pockets! The combination of hands in pockets and the different expressions really allow for so many different situations!!  ♡

Another thing to note is that she is wearing a school uniform, which means that she’ll go really well with the figmaPLUS: Classroom and figmaPLUS: School Route Set which are on sale now! ♥︎

Keep the Cinderella Girls right by your side in figma form!

figma Rin Shibuya:
CINDERELLA PROJECT ver.!

She’ll be up for preorder from tomorrow! ♪

Plus, orders from the GOOD SMILE ONLINE SHOP will include a bonus expression!!

A sceptical expression!!!

I’ll be sure to share any new information about them as soon as I hear more!!(｀・ω・´)

By the way! Don’t forget that the rerelease of the 1/8th scale figure…

Rin Shibuya: New Generation Ver.  is currently up for order! 

Orders at the GOOD SMILE ONLINE SHOP are open until the 4th March at 21:00JST!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I am a complete indoor person… I haven’t even rode on a bike in ages!

But anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at a Max Factory figure that was shipped out yesterday…

figma Sakamichi Onoda!

Oooooh! Onoda-kun!!! (*´Д｀)=з

From the popular manga, anime and game series ‘Yowamushi Pedal’ comes a figma of the high-cadence climber, Sakamichi Onoda!

The yellow jersey of Souhoku High is so bright and noticeable! Plus those round glasses are simply fantastic! ♡

This is how the blister pack looks! (｀・ω・´)ゞ

Alternate head parts to display him with his helmet are also included!! 

But more importantly…
what is the strange plastic model like thing I can see behind him…?

Parts to put a bike together!!

Let’s see if someone as clumsy as myself can put it together! ♥︎

First compare the unattached parts to the handling instructions and make sure that everything is there!

Hmm… is this really going to build into a bicycle…? (； ・`д・´) 

Let’s start off by cutting out each part from the runner! ♪

If you read through the instructions carefully, you should easily be able to cut at the right areas!

Just be sure to check where to cut for each new piece! (/ω＼)

I prefer cutting out all the parts before getting to work, but you can also cut them out as they are needed! ♥︎

Here we have all the parts separated!

I just cut them out and left them as is, but you can also sand the cut edges to get them smooth if you want a cleaner attachment! ★

But hold on a second… there are no wheels here! 

How will my bike work without wheels?!  (´□｀｡)
 

Oh right! There were some parts in the front as well! Thanks Onoda-kun!

*I actually honestly thought the parts were missing at first. I was just about to ask Max Factory about them when I realized… 

Right then, let’s start putting the bike together! 

The explanation is very clear, and even I was able to progress rather quickly!

Putting the parts together took around 10 minutes! (Including a quick break!)

Finally Onoda-kun has a bike to ride on! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

Even though the bike is a model kit, it still has nice detail all over! The handles and front wheel can also be turned left and right to create slightly different poses. ☆

Just look at how happy Onoda-kun looks with his complete bike! ♪

I still can’t believe that those parts managed to come together into such a convincing bike! I never thought the parts I cut out would transform into the bike so easily!

Hmm?

But what is this part that Onoda-kun is looking at so intently…?

A drink bottle holder!!

That can only mean that… a drink bottle must also be included!! (●´ω｀●) 

Not only does Onoda-kun come with parts that allow him to hold the bottle, you can also insert it into the bottle holder on the bike! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Ready and hydrated, time to start riding!! ♡♡

The start looks like quite a climb!

“Hiime Hime Hime Hiime Hime! Hime na no da!!” 

After getting to the top of the hill, it’s time for a break! ♪

I can’t wait to display him together with Yusuke!

Onoda stands about 135mm tall, which isn’t too different to other figma, but the tight feeling of the cycling jersey gives him a rather small looking appearance!

He fits quite comfortably into the top of a Gacha cup!

Be sure to display him in all sorts of fun situations when your’s arrives! (σ・ ∀・)σ

figma Sakamichi Onoda!

He is on sale now!

Finally a quick notice! ♪

Kahotan Station: January Edition is tomorrow!!

My guest host this time around is Kevin (@gsc_kevin) from the WEB team!

Perhaps the broadcast will be slightly more… English than normal! (Don’t get your hopes up though!)

I hope to see you there!! ☆
