You can head to Akiba Hobby for more coverage.
May’n 2nd TV Live performance featuring her latest single, Northern Cross from Macross Frontier ^^
1st performance is below for those who have not seen it yet, featuring Macross Frontier 1st ED, Diamond Crevasse ^^

Some breaking news were announced earlier to those who attended the press conference at Dentsu Singapore regarding the upcoming Anime Festival Asia 2008 event.
I don’t know if it’s considered “Custom”, but this is probably what it will look like if Max Factory ever decided to release “Figma Kobayakawa Yutaka” and “Figma Iwasaki Minami” ^^


From Figure/GK
Btw, the above Figmas used Figma Tsukasa as base and replaced the head of those from Clayroid Puchi Lucky Star #02, but I can see Max Factory releasing the rest of Lucky Star casts in the future ( ^ _ ^ )/
Here’s a fun typing game which involves Anime songs ^^ Type in the lyrics as the songs plays!!

Thanks to Cyberchaos @ Dannychoo.com
The game is sooo addicting~XD You can start playing TYPING MANIA 4 right here.
BTW, Motteke! Sailor Fuku is broke ( > _ < );;
First time seeing this today. Looka like a legit trailer to me, although it looks more like a teaser ^^;
There’s so much GAR in this. In this Seiyuu segment of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Viral‘s Seiyuu gets to voice Simon in one of the “Giga Drill Breaker” scene ^^
Simon = Hiyama Nobuyuki (Viral)
Guame = Fukui Yukari (Nia)
GIGA DRILLL BREAAAKERR!!!~XD
More of those Custom made Figmas. I guess the trend is increasing ^^

This time it’s Kusakabe Misao from Lucky Star, by using Figma Konata Winter School Uniform Ver. as base model.
Although it’s not a really “smooth” final product, still, I think it’s a good attempt~ ( ^ _ ^ )/

Just a reminder, Animelo Summer Live 2008 -Challenge- will start in 2 weeks, and it will be a 2 days event on August 30th and August 31st ^^ As for the complete artists listing that are going to perform, you can view them at the Official Page.
Below is the theme song for this year’s Animelo titled “Yells ~It’s a Beautiful Life~”
Can’t wait for the DVD, since I won’t be watching it LIVE~XD
The latest trailer of the second season of Gundam 00 was shown during Gundam Expo Tokyo 2008. Someone recorded it in which you can view it below:


So after Yoko, It’s Nia‘s turn to get the “Gravure” treatment~XD

I have to say, this is one nice and catchy song, can’t wait to see Ranka in action~( ^ _ ^ )/

Remember the Lucky Haruhi video I posted back in Febuary? The video is now complete with epicness ^^ You can view the complete video below:
From Dannychoo.com via member Gordon
What I like about this video, is it’s not just some Fan-Made video. It’s actually really well directed, and with smooth animation~( ^ _ ^ )/
A nice rendition of “Hare Hare Yukai” dance, by replacing the usual characters with the Chibi version ^
A bit laggy, but CUTE OVERLOAD!!! \( > _ < )/
No Kyon and Itsuki though ^^;

On the other hand…Super Haruhi!!~XD

From Mikatan’s Blog

Although most of us already know that Fate will get the Figma treatment from Wonder Festival 2008 Winter, Max Factory just updated their Figma’s Blog with the above teaser image.
This will give us a big hint that the next Figma line up after Mikuru & Itsuki sets, will most likely be and will include Figma Fate T. Harlaown ^^
Can’t wait!! v( > _ < )v
Oh, and Nanoha being all bad~XD


This new 1/8 scale figure of “Minase Yukiko” from the Hentai anime Bible Black, will be available this coming September 2008 by Miyabiya for 5,400 Yen ^^ Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
Just like any Bible Black figures, it’s Full Cast Off-able~( ^ _ ^ )/
