Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Kahotan has a bit of an obsession with characters that refer to themselves in the first person! It’s so much cuter to hear them say their own names rather than “I”. Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Hestia!♡ 

The popular goddess from ‘Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?’ also known as ‘Danmachi’ is joining the Nendoroid series complete with ribbon and all! ♪

Everything about her design has been shrunk into Nendoroid size beautifully! From the ribbon around her chest, her long twintails, the white gloves and one-piece mini-skirt have all been charmingly captured!

Even has a Nendoroid her bust size is very noticeable!!

By the way, the area below her impressive bosom can be detached which allows you to display her without the ribbon as well! (*´Д｀)=з

The white outfit also keeps the very ‘tight’ feel to it! You can see from the sculpting just how nicely it keeps to the shape of her body!

Anyway, the first expression I’ve been using up until now if her standard smiling expression, but she also comes with two more expression parts to bring out her personality!!  (´□｀｡)

First up we have…

– Triumphant expression –

Round cheeks + triumphant smile = amazing!

In the series Hestia is probably best known for her low-angle shots, but I went for an ever so slightly high angle that still shows off her petite build! This angle still allows you to see the detail on the cute ribbon accessory around her neck! (*゜ー゜*)

I personally really love the way her cheeks have been done on this expression! It really brings out Hestia’s personality even more! That innocent confidence is what makes her such an adorable goddess!

– Spoilt Child Expression –

The sulking expression that she often saved for Bell-kun… and now for you too! How could anyone say no to her once she does this…! Plus… she also seems to be sitting in a rather adorable plonked down pose! (´□｀｡)

Sitting parts are included for a quick and easy change!

The sculpting of her bottom is also very nicely done… be sure to take a closer look once she joins your collection! By the way, the ribbon is included in three different patterns allowing you to better match it up to different poses!

But how are we going to calm her down now? That’s easy!

Give her the delicious treat she ate together with Bell-kun…

Hestia looks most content with this! ☆

You get to enjoy both the cute, spoilt and confident sides of the cute Hestia in a body that shows off her petite build perhaps even more than usual! She may be small but she has a presence nobody will miss! Be sure to add her to your collection! ♪

Nendoroid Hestia!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I was always terrible at serving during PE classes back at school. Everyone kept cheering me on but I never really got it right…

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at two products…

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata: Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver. &
Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama: Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver.

Ooooooooh!! (´□｀｡)

The first year Haikyu!! boys strongest duo are back again as Nendoroids, this time wearing their volleyball jerseys!

Compared to their previously released Nendoroids in their uniforms, these two look ready for volleyball to start!! You can find the previous Nendoroids over here:

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata

(Released January 2015)

Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama

(Released May 2015)

This is how the packaging looks! It’s rather different to usual!  (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

△The left is the Jersey version, the right is the previous released uniform version!

Not only is it a little more compact, but you also open it in an all new way!! Here is a GIF that should give you an idea of how the box opens up!! 

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata:
Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver. 

Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama:
Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver.

Rather Simple! But simple isn’t always bad! Not only is it lighter on the wallet, but there are still all sorts of ways to enjoy these two!!

Let’s start by taking a look at the optional parts and outfits! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

This is how they look from the back!

You can see the ‘Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’ written on their backs! <○><○>

You can see from the sculpt and paintwork that their bags are each made from different material! Kageyama’s has a glossy, enamel appearance while Hinata’s has a more matte appearance! 

Also, you can swap out the parts between them as well as their alternate Nendoroid versions allowing for a different set of poses for them to take! For example…

These make use of the super excited expressions included with Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata and Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama! (●´ω｀●) 

While they are certainly lovely on their own, displaying the two of them together allows for even more fun!! By the way, the Kageyama above makes use of Hinata’s hand but the bent arm part! You can mix things up for all sorts of different situations!

These two figures are a little special, so let’s go over how you can purchase them!

1) Haikyu!! Festival! Limited Presales

A limited amount of stock of both Hinata and Kageyama will be on sale at the Haikyu!! Festival taking place this weekend on the 30th August! See the official website for more information!

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’m going to be taking a look at ORANGE ROUGE’s newest member who has his birthday today…

Nendoroid Koujaku!

Ooooooohh!! (´□｀｡)

Apologies for the wait since his announcement! The reliable leader of the Benishigure who also works as a hairdresser, Koujaku is finally joining the Nendoroids!

The long hair that covers his right eye, his intricate yet beautiful red kimono, gentle eyes and just overflowing manliness have all been beautifully transformed into Nendoroid size! (/ω＼)

Just look at details of his outfit!! <○><○>

The bottom of the kimono not only has a lovely gradient effect, but also has all the flower patterns faithfully printed on at the bottom even in Nendoroid size!

The details of his hairpin and sword are also absolutely stunning!! ♪

Plus the sword is also included unsheathed as a separate part, so you can pose him showing off his strength and vigour with his sword drawn! ♡

Plus as you probably realized from the above he comes with alternate arm parts that allow you to choose between placing his arm inside the kimono, or instead through the sleeve! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

The pose with his arm inside the kimono is definitely how many fans known him so it simply had to be included, but he still comes with standard arm parts for all sorts of other posing options! The short tied up bit of hair over his shoulder is also fitted with a joint allowing you to match it with your poses! ♪

Let’s take a closer look for more detail…!

All the strings, ornaments his sash and even the prayer beads on his wrists… they’re all separately painted! The strings and kimono itself make use of a flat paint while the various baubles and ornaments have a glossy paint to create a shining appearance that really looks amazing! The prayer beads have a pearl paint applied to them which also looks fantastic!! ( ；∀；)

Of all the characters in DRAMAtical Murder, Koujaku’s outfit probably has the most intricate details! We’ve really done as best we can keeping his charms even when shrunk down to Nendoroid size, changing the paint colors and type even for smaller details like like the ornaments… not to mention the prints at the bottom of his kimono! We hope to create the same level of detail on the final product… I’m sure all will go well!

I personally love the way the one finger on his right hand is slightly lifted!! (*´Д｀)=з

Just that slight change makes me think he was just thinking about something that caused him to put strength into his arm… it adds more to his manly character!! I don’t know if everyone will fell this way, but it really catches my attention for some reason…!

Anyway, let’s move on to another part included with Koujaku…

His sparrow AllMate ‘Beni’!! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Even the cute geta sandals on his talons have been carefully sculpted!! If you balance him carefully you can even pose him in places like this!

His neck can also be moved from left to right for slightly different nuances!

Just having him nearby in any pose makes it instantly seem more colorful! ♡

By the way, even though his face is covered by his hair, the details of the expression including his other eye and the tattoos on his face are faithfully included! Be sure to take a look once he is in your collection! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Anyway, let’s move on to his other expression parts, starting off with his…
Lovely smiling expression! ☆

I’m pretty sure if anyone ever met me with a smile like this I would fall for them in a second!! Of course posing him smiling together with Aoba is great, but even just posing him alone looking upward makes for such a lovely smile to look down upon whenever you’re feeling down!

Onto his third and final expression…!

An embarrassed expression!

Note that there is an ever so slight blush in his cheeks!!

You can see he is trying really hard to hide his embarrassment and keep his confident expression!! Koujaku’s embarrassed expression is a rather rare sight… but with the Nendoroid you can enjoy it whenever you like! (・∀・)

It allows you to create scenes like this…!

Parts to hold hands with Nendoroid Aoba!!

Holding hands just like when they were younger! As you can also see in the photo (although it got a little cut off), Koujaku’s base is a longer, rectangular base! It’s the exact size of two Nendoroid bases placed together! ε=(｡・д・｡)

This allows for easy posing together with the other characters!!

You choose to display him with Aoba like above, or perhaps instead with Nendoroid Noiz in a scene like below… or with any other Nendoroid! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

They look like they are provoking someone by showing off how unconcerned they are!!

Their personalities never really got along at first, but as Nendoroids they seem quite happy beside each other! Even from the back it looks like they are having an interesting conversation with each other! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

As you can see above, you can also have Koujaku hold the sword in it’s scabbard! The hole it uses to connect to his back will be visible on the sword though!

Also note the pouch and tied up sash of his kimono! The attention to detail never ceases to amaze me!! ♪

Enjoy all the details of his outfit and various sides of his personality!

Nendoroid Koujaku!

He’ll be up for preorder from the tomorrow!!☆

Check out the ORANGE ROUGE official site for a look at the other figures in the line-up!
⇒　ORANGE ROUGE Official Site

Plus! The first edition of the figure will include a special inner cardboard sheet that will recreate one of the backgrounds from the game, just like the previous two Nendoroids from the series! The design will be announced at a later date!! ♪
