A preview look of the upcoming 1/8 scale figure of “Zero” from Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 by MegaHouse. Figure is standing at 24.5cm in height. Release date and price still undecided. Scan is from the latest issue of Hobby Japan magazine.
Looking at the Prototype, probably it could be the best looking figure of Zero up-to-date. You can even remove the cape and exchange the head either with the Zero’s Mask or Lelouch’s. More accessories also~ ( ^ _ ^ )

Didn’t expect this figure to get the Miyazawa treatment. Different colour scheme, but I definitely prefer the face expression on this one than the Normal Version ( ^ _ ^ );

Volks is planning to release a new line up of figures based on Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS under their A-Brand. Since it’s A-Brand, these figure most likely to be resin kits.
Looks like Nanoha and Hayate will get their turn 1st, as can be seen from the above scan. Well, atleast Fate will be released in her Shin Sonic Form ^^;
Not much info yet, but looks like more will be released at the end of the month.
Anime Festival Asia 2008 has just updated their site earlier with the addition of news that most of us has been waiting for, the Exclusives. You can view more of the list of items Here.
To tell the truth, I kind of disappointed with the range of exclusives listed, atleast for now. So far they are geared towards Gunpla collectors and also Tokusatsu fans. I’m not saying it’s bad or anything, but I’m hoping, since there’s still 1 week left, they will revealed more. Maybe they won’t list all the exclusives on site, hopefully.

Hobby Stock updated their Blog with a preview of the upcoming Nendoroid Louise from Zero no Tsukaima. Of course, they are trying to tease us by showing the not-so-clear image of the Prototype. You need to see from faaaaarrrrrrrrrrr awayyyyyyyy if you want to get a “slightly” better look ( > _ < );
