I can’t remember where but I believe that Nix will be a full cast-off. Similar to Erina of the Queens blade line. I’ve also been fortunate enough to have bought every pvc incarnation of the Queens Blade line so far but Cattleya will be the Jewel of the collection. Here’s waiting for Listy!

There are no uncensored images of Nix online yet, what you see here are all that have been published. I expect we won’t have any visual evidence until she hits store shelves later this month, or until the next issue of Hobby Japan is released (whichever is sooner).

Where exactly can i see pics of the castoff Nix? Or is there none online yet? I’m deciding if I want to order her as well. that line in her leg, IS a tiny bit distracting.. Just curious if there’s pics of her in her B-suit :)

No kidding, Sign of the End Times! I want a Mega House figure of Risty as well! I guess I might have to settle for the Medicos trading fig…

For me, any Queen’s Blade figure is a safe bet. Shizuka’s no exception.

Even if that Shiori comes out in PVC, is there any hope of it being castoffable?

And speaking of, when is Cattleya gonna be confirmed to be castoffable, with pics to prove it? I’ve got mine pre-ordered, but I’d still like pictures… Just curious.

Well this reinforces that my preorder of Nix was well placed. Shizuka is a vision, but I doubt I’ll get a crack at the lighter version here in the US. Airi looks like she’s gonna turn out better than I expected as well.

Yep. Didn’t know nix’s bottom castoffable. No wonder she’s out of pre-order faster than any other QB figures (except maybe the 1st one, Reina)

Not interested in the Shizuka, sadly enough. But now I wish I’d been able to get in on the Nix – she looks way better under the clothes than the ‘with clothes on’ look! Well, guess I’ll need to wait it out and see if I can find stock of her..

Thanks Shingo for the scoop.

Looks like another addition to my growing Queen’s Blade collection. :)

Guess I’ll skip the alternate colour version. The Yen’s getting too strong for me to indulge in alternate colours of the same figure sculpt.

Here’s also hoping that Shiori will be seeing a general PVC release soon. :)

I totally want Shizuka, i’m afraid i’m going to have to say it’s one of the best looking pieces i’ve ever laid eye’s on, even the breasts look perfect.

I hope Play-Asia get her up for pre-order, it’s probably the only way i’ll get a hold of her.

Please keep us posted HD :) (I know you will anyway)

It’s in the body of the post: “the Orchid Seed Ishiyama Satoshi-sculpted Witchblade Shiori kit scooped at the Miyazawa Model Exhibition is coming out in resin at Hobby Complex 02 this Sunday, November 25th.”

Thus far the kit is described as an event-limited resin, but if past Orchid behavior is any indication we should see the announcement of a PVC version in the next week or two.

Shizuka is looking incredibly good, but now I’m curious about that Witchblade figure on the far right of your last picture. Wowza, dem’s big.
