July 9, 2008

Another new entry from Art Storm’s Character Series is ready for reservations. This time it’s Yoshizaki Mine‘s turn ^^

limit gunz

This new 1/6 scale figure of “Limit Gunz” from the Lilics series, will be available this coming November 2008, and will be retailing for 8,400 yen. Hobby Search is taking pre-orders for her as of today.

Just like Shunya Yamashita‘s Kanaru, this figure is listed as Volume 1, so the possibility is high that more will come in the future.

If you are not familiar with the name Yoshizaki Mine, he’s actually the creator of the famous Manga Keroro Gunzo (Sgt. Keroro), which anime series is still running as of now. He’s also the character designer for the arcade game Otomedeus and apparently he will also be designing one of the new Soul Calibur IV‘s guest character named Angol Fear ^^

This figure is gorgeous, love that big gun!!~XD

This figure is part of Shunya Yamashita Character Series, and it’s stated as Volume 1. So I guess more will come in the future. A good addition to any Shunya Yamashita’s fans out there ( ^ _ ^ )/
