This new figure of the legendary “Lin Minmay” from the first Macross series, will be available this coming November 2008 by CM’s Corporation for 4,500 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
Finally we get to see the finished product of Alpha X Omega‘s Kallen & Shirley at Chara Hobby 2008 ^^
To tell the truth, I’m not really that impressed with the paint work on the final one. Maybe because of the lightening or any that affects the pictures, but nevertheless, they still have time to improve on them. Looks like a rush work to me ^^; Both are scheduled for January 2009 release.
Alter also surprised us during Chara Hobby 2008 with the addition of Yoko to their line up. Not just one Yoko, but 2 Versions of her. One in her usual battle outfit and the other in her Teacher outfit ^^ Both are scheduled for 2009 release.
Alter also displayed the final coloured version of their Louise figure during the event.
The rest are already shown during Wonder Festival 2008 Summer ^^;
One of the main highlight from Good Smile Company & Max Factory Booth is probably the announcement on Figma Shana, and also the finally revealed release date for the Figma Kagamine Twins at Chara Hobby 2008 ^^
Most of the stuffs displayed were already shown during Wonder Festival 2008 Summer. Still, there are some cool ones ^^
You can view more of the booth coverage at Hobby Stock.
Danny just posted his coverage on Chara Hobby 2008 which started earlier today. First is the Gunpla section and more will be posted later on. You can view more at his site here.
As announced at Alpha X Omega‘s Website, the newly announced figure of “Kallen Stadtfeld Bunny Girl Ver.” and “Shirley Fenette Swimsuit Waitress Ver.” will be on display on tomorrow’s Chara(C3X) Hobby 2008 at MegaHouse booth.
The best part is that it’s the complete and final coloured version that’s going to be displayed ^^ I’m so looking forward to these two~XD
Just a small reminder. Chara(C3X) Hobby 2008 will commenced on August 30th until August 31st~( ^ _ ^ )/
This new 1/6 scale figure of “Kanu Unchou Volume 13 Cover Ver.” from Ikkitousen series, will be available this coming December 2008 by Daiki Kougyu for 15,800 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking pre-orders for her as of today.
Hmmm, I wonder what makes her so expensive. Material used is still PVC and not Cold Cast or anything. Still, the figure looks great though ( ^ _ ^ );
This new 1/7 scale figure of “Suzumiya Haruhi Swimsuit Ver.”, will be available this coming November 2008 by Griffon Enterprises for 6,500 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
Previously, this Haruhi figure was on sale as Garage/Resin Kit during Wonder Festival 2008 Summer, and was also an exclusive item ^^ This time she will be released for public as PVC figure ^^
This new figure of “Gwendolyn” from Odin Sphere will be available this coming November 2008 by Yujin for 5,400 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations for her as of today.
Another Gwendolyn figure, although I definitely still prefer Alter version~ ( ^ _ ^ );
This new figure of “Figma Hatsune Miku” from the Vocaloid series, will be available as early as September 10th, 2008, just few weeks away, by Max Factory for 2,500 Yen retail price. Hobby Search is taking reservations of her as of today.
The reason why it’s early is probably to celebrate Hatsune Miku‘s birthday, which is on this coming August 31st ^^
A very cute looking set of figure straps we got here ^^
The following “We’re Mini Gurren Lagann Team” figure straps set is scheduled for October 2008 release. They are sold individually for 800 Yen each, unfortunately, and Hobby Search is taking reservations for it as of now.
Edit: Updated with a much more clearer scans from Famitsu magazine and more info of the game.
Looks like a new game based on the Vocaloid character Hatsune Miku is in the making for PSP. The title is called “Hatsune Miku -Project Diva-“ and scheduled next year for 2009 release by SEGA ^^;
