Both of these figures were scooped here recently, and are now beginning to make their way online. Alter’s Kuramoto Ikuma (Millimeter Modeling) sculpted Saber (maid ver.) PVC from Fate / stay night is now available at Rakuten Happinet and Amazon, and two versions of Sofmap’s [ERO] Shingyouji Mao kit from Boy Meets Girl are up at, predictably, Sofmap (regular and Sofmap limited editions). Saber is due out in late September and Mao is slated for August; there are currently no details on what sets the Sofmap limited version apart from the regular Mao kit, but we’ll keep you posted. In other news, Alter has updated their official website, which now contains listings for both maid Saber and the Yurie-sama diorama from Kamichu! that they’re producing in collaboration with Happinet. Looks like they’re getting their promotional strategy slowly straightened out… (no more)

It’s nice to see another large PVC from Alter, and the Yurie is cute, and the only other one apart from the Yujin one which sold out too quickly…
As for Mao, Sofmap links are dead, saying they don’t have the numbers listed…
Gah, I thought Sofmap had finally decided to put the Mao pages up for good – those links have been going up and down since yesterday, I wish they’d make up their minds. Rest assured they’ll be up again eventually. -_-;;
I know a few people are looking forward to the Yurie-sama diorama. Hopefully Alter carries off a 1/7 maid saber better than CLAYZ’s effort.
i’m hoping for maid rider and caster
please, make my dream comes true ;__;
p/s: yey~, my 1/6 skimpy rider has arrived :D
ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━( ﾟ∀)━( ﾟ)━( )━(ﾟ )━(∀ﾟ )━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!!!!
Sweet! Saber, here I come! I’m pretty sure Alter’s maid saber will be better than CLAYZ. That has traditionally been the case, especially in terms of details and finesse. I’m guessing Hobby Search (1999.co.jp) is the only store right now that has it on pre-order and will ship to the U.S.?
I’m looking forward to the Yurie diorama as well.
On a side note, Alter’s website is looking rather nice. Perhaps not as cool as their previous Flash hybrid, but definitely just as aesthetically pleasing and even better in terms of usability.
Darn you Amazon for not shipping to the United States.
Ahhh… hentai.. can’t have that in my room with my sisters dropping by to play Maple Story all the time. :(
