Alter updated their Blog earlier last week with a preview of their next Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS figure line up. Although the image is blurred, there’s no doubt that the figure is Nakajima Subaru ^^

Originally, I had some doubt on what exactly the figure is, but then I noticed the “(C)なのはStrikerS PROJECT” at the end of the entry ^^;

According to them, she is set for 2009 release. Most likely we’ll be able to see the prototype at the next Figure event. I’m thinking Mega Hobby Expo ( ^ _ ^ )
