Asuka Langley have seen many figures of her made over the years in more outfits than I can name; but oddly enough, she only received a handful of sculpts in her renowned plugsuit. Looking at them now, most of them were average to mediocre and would not have pass the eyeball test anyways. But times have changed, and Kotobukiya brings us a dandy with their Evangelion 2.0 Asuka Langley Shikinami. Don’t ask me why she’s called Shikinami, I haven’t watched EVA 2.0 yet. ^^;; Continue reading ‘Kotobukiya Asuka Langley Shikinami’
New Revoltech Figures
Published 10/31/2009 Figures 20 CommentsTags: Figures, Fraulein, Future Releases, Preview, Revoltech, Revoltech Expo
I was browsing over at Tokyo Hunter’s Blog and saw these photos. Instant hi-jack for my own post. ^^;;
Revoltech held their very own expo (who doesn’t?) on Halloween to showcase their current and future products with a couple surprises up their sleeves. I never knew a company can host their own “expo”, but I’m not complaining here. Full coverage of the expo can be found over at Tokyo Hunter’s Blog; I’ll be covering what I have my eyes on.
Looks like Kaiyodo will be releasing another Asuka in EVA 2.0 attire for their Fraulein line. Say what? Fraulein? I thought they gave way to the new Queen’s Blade line. Anyways, I’m all over this one because I like Asuka.

October Pre-orders update ~ Ordered, Wished, and Canceled
Published 10/29/2009 Figures 24 CommentsTags: Canceled, Ordered, Pre-orders, Wished
Another month, another edition of my monthly pre-orders update covering what I’ve ordered, what I want to order, and what I’ve chucked from my orders.
I’ll start the coverage with Good Smile’s Black Rock Shooter who, yet again, have been delayed to a November release. Hopefully the delays aren’t caused by GSC sticking a BRS logo onto the base as an anti-counterfeit measure. :P Continue reading ‘October Pre-orders update ~ Ordered, Wished, and Canceled’
MegaHouse Queen’s Blade Airi Special Edition
Published 10/27/2009 Figure Review , Figures 28 CommentsTags: 1/8 scale, Airi, Big Weapon, Brunette, Cast-off, Figure Review, Figures, Green Eyes, Long Hair, Maid, MegaHouse, Norio Kibayashi, Oppai, Pantsu, Queen's Blade, Special Edition, Tc, Thigh Highs, Twin Tail
Airi -the Infernal Temptress- is the latest gal to be re-released in what MegaHouse calls the Queen’s Blade Special Edition line. MegaHouse have been making figures from the Queen’s Blade franchise since 2007 when they launched the Excellent Model Core Queen’s Blade series, long before the QB franchise popularized from the anime’s ecchi success. Most of the original releases are now discontinued, so the new Special Editions will give newcomers an opportunity to catch what they’ve missed. Do be advised that this review is NSFW!
