Actually I wanted to put this together with Alter, but I guess they deserved their own entry ^^
Anyway, remember the 3 “Secret” figures image earlier? One of them is indeed Kuran Kuran Chibi form ^^ Scheduled for November 2008 release.

Still have to wait for more pics for the others ^^;

On other news, a poster was spotted at Alpha x Omega booth announcing that they’re planning to make figures of Kalen and Shirley from Code Geass, scheduled for December 2008 release ^^ I have the feeling the other 2 secret figures might be the 2 of them ( ^ _ ^ );
Many thanks to Figure/GK

As we all can see from the image above, looks like Alpha x Omega going to announce 3 new figures during this coming Wonfest 2008, or atleast they are going to display the finished product ^^
My only guess is that those 3 might be from Macross Frontier. I know that the far right is Kuran Kuran Micron Ver. since they have already shown the prototype before. The middle one looks like Alto to me~XD Well, we’ll just have to wait for tomorrow I guess ^^

On other news~ According to Shine Na Blog, we will get to see some new Shining Wind figures displayed/announced during tomorrow’s Wonfest 2008 ^^ They includes Kotobukiya‘s Ryuna (Above Image), and others might be Alter‘s Claclaclan Full Armor Version, and Max Factory‘s Seena ^^
I’m so looking forward to these~( ^ . ^ )/

That’s what Good Smile Company trying to tell us. Looks like the trend of fake figurines is starting to get out of hands that GSC has to resort to this.

Good Smile Company just updated their “Imitation” info with a new line up figurines. This time it’s “Clayroid puchi Lucky Star Season 01”. The above image are Fakes. Other info includes bad paint jobs, shiny and oily-look surface, and different base stand. You can view more info on the fake items here. The one in RED is Authentics, and BLUE is fakes.

Other discovered GSC fakes product include Nendoroid L, Nendoroid Asahina Mikuru, and Max Factory‘s Saber/Zero. You can view them here.
I think this is a really important matter to anyone who is also a figure collectors like myself. I’ve never gotten any fakes before, but this info does give me more insight on what’s happening out there. I know some people who already got tricked before. So please be careful when you are trying to purchase figurines from an unknown sources, especially Ebay and Yahoo! Auction.
More research on the stuffs you want to get is one thing you could do. Be smart peeps!! ( ^ _ ^ )/

From Figure/GK
Another look of the upcoming figure of “Ignis” by Yamato from the latest scan. Although looking at it, it might be another exclusive figure, this time it might be Hobby Japan magazine August issue mail order exclusive ( > _ < ). Just hope I’m wrong. The figure itself is scheduled for November 2008 release and will be up for 8,190 Yen retail price.
Sculpted by Cerberus Project, in which you can view more of her here.
One of the coolest figure of Ignis. I really like the dynamic pose ( ^ _ ^ )
