This new 1/6 scale figure of “Eve Sakakibara” from Infinite Fantasia, will be available next year in January 2009 by Wafudoh Ganguten for 9,500 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
Not very familiar with the series, but she looks good. First time I saw her was in the latest Hobby Japan magazine~ ( ^ _ ^ )
A preview look of the upcoming Nendoroid Pixel Mari-tan by Good Smile Company from the latest Hobby Japan magazine scan.
As you can see from the scan, there will be 2 different figures that are going to be released. The left side is “Nendoroid Pixel Mari-tan Battle Assault Ver.”, which is a Limited version and will be another Hobby Japan exclusive. The right side is the normal “Nendoroid Pixel Mari-tan” version.
The Limited version will be up for 4,000 Yen retail price and is scheduled for Febuary 2009 release. The pre-order period for her already started since October 14th, 2008 and will end on November 17th, 2008. You can start ordering her online at Hobby Japan Online Shop.
As for the Normal version, she’s scheduled for March 2009 release for 3,500 Yen retail price. As you can see one difference between both versions is that Limited gets the Bazooka set and Normal gets the Giant Anchor set. One thing for sure is that Limited gets more accessories than Normal.
Also, more info will be given in the upcoming December issue of Hobby Japan magazine.

This new figure of “Holstein Hanako” will be available next year on January 2008 by Daiki Kougyo for 15,000 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
To tell the truth, I don’t know what makes her so expensive. She’s made out of PVC, a Non-scale, and staning at 21 cm in height. Well, she does have Cast Off features, but I don’t think that should made her tha high ( ^ _ ^ );
We went for our Fantasy Photoshoot earlier on Saturday at Chinese/Japanese Garden. There will be both Day and Night photoshoot, so plenty of shots available ^^
I will post them probably by today or tomorrow latest, since I’ll be pretty busy in the next few days. So look forward to them~ ( ^ _ ^ )
Next review is this super cute looking figure of “Nendoroid Pastel Ink” by Good Smile Company ^^

Doesn’t look half bad~ ( ^ _ ^ );
Well, we all know that Alter’s Yagami Hayate is going to be huge!!! standing at 30cm in height when displayed. So one might think, how big will her box be?
So earlier, Alter had just revealed the size of her box to retailers. This is needed so that retailers can reserve enough space for the goods when they arrived at the warehouse.
Hayate’s box is measuring at 45.5cm in length, 27.5cm in Width, and 38.5cm in height.
Wha–? Did I just said that correctly? Yep, 45 CM!!!~XD That’s what I called Big!!. I don’t know if it’s bigger than Alter’s Fate, since I don’t own one.
I ordered one myself, but now I’m having second thought because of her size. I don’t know if I have enough space to display her now~XD

We’ve seen her a lot ever since Wonder Festival 2008, and now she’s up for pre-orders ^^ This will be the 2nd from the series by Max Factory with Kureha as the 1st. A must get if you already own Kureha. Most likely it’ll be another hard to get item~ ( ^ _ ^ );
A first look at the upcoming figure of Akashiya Moka from Rosario + Vampire by Sega, scheduled for January 2009. Didn’t mention the scale, but the figure is standing at 18 cm. Supposedly it’s another prize item, but they might release it for public ^^
