A preview of the upcoming figure of “Ivy Valentine” from Soul Calibur III by ebCraft. The scale is 1/6 and it’s standing at an impressive height of 30 cm ^^ It’s scheduled for August 2008 release at a whoopin price of 12,800 Yen ^^;
Well you guess it~It’s made with PVC + ABS ^^; Nice looking figure though, despite the high price ^^
Haha, speak of the devil~XD Just when we were talking about the releases, Figma Kanu reservations just opened ^^;
This new “Figma Kan’u Unchou” by Max Factory is scheduled for July 2008 release and will be up for 2,667 Yen retail price ^^ Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.

OOOO!!! Can’t wait!!! ( > _ < )!! One particular confirmation is that Figma Kanu is scheduled for July 2008 release ^^
Another new entry by Griffon Enterprises ^^ I think this was shown during Wonder Hobby Festival 2008 Final.
This nice looking 1/7 scale figure of “Uesugi Kenshin” from Sengoku Lance series is scheduled for August 2008 release, and will be up for 9.800 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservation for her as of today.
It’s expensive alright ^^; I wonder if the final product supposed to be like that. It’ll be a much better looking figure with colours on though~( ^ _ ^ );
This new figure of “SMC Kanu Unchou” from Ikkitousen series, will finally be available for August 2008 release by Toys Works ^^ It’ll be up for 6,980 Yen retail price, and Hobby Search is taking reservations for it as of today.
This figure was first shown during Wonder Festival 2008 Winter a while ago ^^
I have to say, one of the nicest looking Kanu~( ^ _ ^ )/
I’ve decided to start off with the review on “Saber Alter 1/8 Scale” by Solid Theater ^^
This figure was released on May 13th, 2008. It was originally scheduled for March 2008 release, so it’s quite a delay alright ^^;
A little bit of info on the character ^^ Saber Alter or Dark Saber, only appears during the game “Heaven’s Feel” storyline. Supposedly she was possessed by Angra Mainyu which transformed her onto the darkside, and also at the same time became Sakura‘s servant. She was later defeated by Emiya Shirou.
I never played the game though ( > _ < )
To tell the truth, I think the wait is worth it. This is probably the most coolest, fearsome, and gruesome Dark Saber up to date. The quality and the details are great. I like the way they painted and did the Dress Armor. It really shows that sense of weight and power.
The figure comes with the “Dark Excalibur” and an extra head with the Faceplate on, which you can switch around. As for the stand, it was made so that it can be connected with “Dark Sakura”, which is going to be released soon ^^
On with the shots~

Close up on details~
Pants (No pantsu this time~:p )
Did some Photoshop effects~
The rest of the reviews will follow later. Look forward to it~( ^ _ ^ )/
Two new entries from Alpha Omega are now ready for reservations ^^ If you didn’t know or new to the call name “Alpha Omega”, it’s actually a joint project and a team consisting of Alter and Mega House. So you can expect a good and high quality product from them ^^
Anyway, these 2 new figures of “Lala Satalin Deviluke Uniform Ver.” and “Golden Darkness (Konjiki no Yami)” from To-Love Ru series, will be available this coming September 2008, and both will be up for 6,300 Yen ^^ Hobby Search is taking reservation for both of them as of today.
I personally like Yami better for this. She looks Moe~( ^ 0 ^ )/
These just arrived today ^^

Hmm, I might get him, but we’ll see ^^;

It’s too bad that Hobby Stock doesn’t have an English page ( > _ < )
Update: Hobby Search just opened the reservations for her ^^

All I can say is…wow~^^ I’m more surprised with Len’s ribbon. Looks like it’s made out of some soft rubber material ( ^ _ ^ )
Some of you might have seen these at Mikatan’s Blog, usually played together with the Figma figures~
These devices are actually “Device Metal Charm Collection” by Good Smile Company, which are based on Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha series.

On the other hand…Super Haruhi!!~XD

Now, the person who posted this stated that those are Figma figures, and I really doubt they are ( > _ < ) It’s too big to be a Figma and it looks more like Volks’ Hatsune Miku. So they might be PVC figures. The base stand really shows it all.
Well, what do you guys think? ^^;
On the other hand, here’s a new image of the Nendoroid Kagamine Twins posing with fellow Nendoroid Hatsune Miku ^^
