Figure News: January 25th news roundup

January 25th 2008 at 3:01 PM, by Shingo

A comprehensive list of Wonder Festival 2008 Winter event-limited items, speculation regarding the castoffability of New Line’s Kousaka Tamaki (private version), Zero no Tsukaima Louise and Wolf and Spices Horo from Resinya, and a hot Kusanagi Motoko action figure from Medicom Toy.

Dengeki Online has posted a table with listings of all the limited edition event-only items currently known to be scheduled for release at Wonder Festival 2008 Winter. It includes entries from:

  • Azone International
  • Alter
  • Wave
  • F-Toys Confect
  • Chara-Ani
  • Gainax Shop
  • Griffon Enterprises
  • Cospa
  • Kotobukiya
  • CM’s Corporation
  • Takara Tomy
  • Platz
  • Megahouse
  • Miyabiya
  • Vance Project
  • Happinet
  • Medicos Entertainment
  • Yujin
  • Wonderful Hobby Life For You!! 7

We’ll be providing ongoing coverage of the items on this list as well as other Wonder Festival news as it is brought online.


New Line's [ERO] Kousaka Tamaki PVC from To Heart 2 - castoffable? New Line's [ERO] Kousaka Tamaki PVC from To Heart 2 - castoffable? New Line's [ERO] Kousaka Tamaki PVC from To Heart 2 - castoffable?

ASCII posted a look at a sample version of New Line’s Kousaka Tamaki (private ver.) PVC from To Heart 2 XRATED that insinuates strongly that her already revealing top may be castoffable. We’ll be on the lookout for further corroborating evidence, but this just makes an already attractive item that much more desirable (to me, at least). She’s due out in April at 8,190 yen and 1/6 scale (26 cm tall). Both the solid stockings and fishnet versions are still available for preorder from Play Asia, if you’d like to support HD with your order.


Resinya Louise PVC figure from Zero no Tsukaima Resinya Horo PVC figure from Spice and Wolf

Resinya posted two new items in their figure lineup today: first a negligee-clad, crop-wielding Louise from Zero no Tsukaima (and a black GEE!-store limited version as well), who will retail at 6,980 yen and 1/7 scale (18 cm tall), with release scheduled for March; second, a Horo PVC from Ookami to Koushinryou that’s also due out in March at 1/7 scale (19 cm tall), at 7,800 yen. Both are currently up for preorder at Amiami, and should be up elsewhere soon.


Medicom Toy's Motoko Kusanagi action figure from Ghost in the Shell

Finally, Amiami put up a preorder last night for a Real Action Heroes Kusanagi Motoko figure from Ghost in the Shell. It’s expensive at 17,640 yen retail, and the face looks just a bit off to me, but for some reason I’m really liking the look of this one… I’ve never found a figure of the Major that quite agreed with me well enough to buy it, but if I have the cash when her release rolls around in August I just might take the plunge. She’s 28 cm tall (a big 1/6 scale?) and comes with a custom-made suit and other accessories.

Jeepers! I am loving the Kusanagi doll!! Wow! She is awesome looking. Man- she is a whopper in price though.

Gonna have to have a long hard look at that…….she might be in my future.

I’m thinking that’s an assembly/connection line on the New Line Tamaki, though I would prefer to be wrong. Still a killer sculpt, the article on Moeyo the other day had some real nice shots of the sample.

I dunno, the more I look at the Louise figure from other sites, the more she looks castoffable……….

hmmmmmmmm………….

>>Work_Ethic
I’m guessing she is, just not in a naked way (there’s a bra/tank top of some kind under there, it looks like).

Work_Ethic January 27th, 2008 at 9:48 pm

Well Geez, Shingo- is there a point to her being castoffable then? LOL

Horo looks wrong. Face is weird and her forhead is too long making her ears be too high on her head.
