We begin catching up on figure news today with a raid on the past week of Hobbynet listings, and come away with a few hot items: a great Cagalli PVC from Megahouse in the works, a second item in their Tsukasa Bullet lineup, late fall/winter listings from Alter (and a PVC version of Orchid Seed’s Ignis… why did I buy the resin again?), updated release dates for several old items and a roster of things now on sale (topped by Kaiyodo’s succulent Masane from Witchblade). Heisei-era figure coverage is back!
