Kotobukiya made a splash yesterday evening with the preorder listings of a whole gang of new figures, including Shining Wind’s Shiina Kanon, To Heart 2 Another Days’ Silfa, Moetan’s Nijihara Ink and Pastel Ink (TV color version reissues), Zero no Tsukaima’s Louise (koakuma ver.), and Evangelion’s Rei (plug suit ver.). They’re all due to street in December and sort of blur together in my mind in a big lump, though the Rei does stand out (perhaps due to viewing under the influence). My brain tells me that the road to Eva goods collection is paved with financial death, but my itchy preorder finger is hovering over the button… ;_; (no more)
I think akibajin did a review of kotobukiya rei a while back. It certainly does look pretty ero;)
Shiina Kanon FTW! Er… I mean, I’ll be preordering her when the usual places have her up ^^;;
The Rei fig isn’t bad either but I dare not get into Eva much due to the same reason as you Shingo. I like having *some* money ‘ya know.

Yeah, we mentioned her after Wonder Festival as well. Just a heads up now due to the preorder listing. :3

I’m limiting myself to Clalaclan from among the Shining Wind figures coming out, so I figure I can just maybe justify a Rei here or there… Man I need to stop this line of thought, it’s dangerous. -_-;;
Wow- the Lousie is totally doing it for me- I’m a sucker for bare feet and- yeah- she might be going on my “to get list”! And the two Ink’s look sooooo disgustingly cute……I might break down…
I will need to get the Shiina to compliment the others from the series by Kotobukiya.
Silfa just looks very typical for a To Heart 2 figure – i.e: not too different from another…so I’m not really interested.
As for the two Inks, I have the original versions, so they’re not on the list at all.
The Louise is a MUST-BUY! ^_^
Rei is nice, but I just wish that they’d do a really nice size of her instead of the sitting down or whatnot when in larger scale…
