Hobby Side
- The final two characters in Tomy’s Tetsudou Musume vol. 2 trading figure set are scooped today, paving the way for their late March release.
- I missed the scoop a couple of days ago on these Banpresto Gundam SEED Destiny Lunamaria and Meer figures, but after seeing the actual items up close I can guarantee they’re not anything anyone in their right mind would want; shoddy workmanship all around. -_-
- Dengeki Hobby Magazine EX vol. 1, on sale in late February, will come with an April figure from Advance of Zeta (presumably a Gundam property). Also in late February from Media Works is this Rika figure from Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora, coming with April’s edition of Dengeki GAO.
- Coming in May from Bandai is this Evangelion Torikore trading figures collection, for those who can’t get enough of their chibi Eva heroines.
- Out in late February, Orchid Seed’s Petoko resin kit from Petopeto-san is now available for preorder. Nyomi! [official site]
- B-Club announces this Cagalli polystone from Gundam SEED for release in April. Slightly more flattering images are available at their official site.
- Wanfesu Corner
- Gigapulse: [ERO] I see what you did there.
- On Sale Today
- Toys Planning’s White Breath trading figures
- Mediaworks’ Dengeki GAO append Asaba Ureshiko figure from Okusama wa Mahou Shoujo
- Zetton’s Lamune trading figures
- Wafuudou Ganguten’s Fujisawa Yayoi PVC from Uchuu no Stellvia
A few figure review previews:

Did Yujin ever confirm that mold they showed for Kotona (Zoids Genesis)? That’s the one I’m interested in, as it looks like it was modeled after the T2 work.
Do you have a link to the original citation? It’s not ringing any bells…
This one. Look at top left.
Oh, right. No sign of that for preorder anywhere yet, but it should be soon – looks like it’ll be coming out in April. I’ll certainly be posting when it’s confirmed~
Just dropping in to point out a mistake — the Toys Planning figure collection is based on “White Breath ~with faint hope~”

And I forgot which update it was, but I noticed “Lisanthus” was misspelled as well, though I suspect it not being such a big deal.
Anyways, the Luna and Meer figures looked so wretched that I even didn’t bother scooping it, heh, and ohh, mega photos on POLYGONIA YAYOI~
I knew I had the White Breath reference wrong, but I couldn’t remember what the romanization of ブレス was, and after spending a few minutes poking around on the official site to no avail I gave up. Thanks for the correction.
Re: Lisanthus, I’ve probably spelled her name differently every time I’ve tried to decompress the kana. I’m afraid I don’t care enough about Shuffle (with the exception of Nerine-chan) to get it right. -_-;;
The local hobby shop is selling some old Banpresto Onegai Twins polystones for 500 yen apiece, and I don’t think they’ll go for even that – really terrible work. I’m guessing they’ll move the Luna and Meer stock thanks to completionist collectors, but they’re not much competition with Megahouse’s SEED figure lineup.
POLYGONIA YAYOI~
