wolfx Posted December 21, 2010 Author Posted December 21, 2010 So the white-haired girl's called Strength, huh? Is it just me or do her weapons look different here? IIRC, they looked like pile-drivers things in the anime, not gauntlets. Gotta watch the DVD again to confirm. I see they actually included the bio-mechanical vertebra/tail thing, too. Wonder if it's articulated as well. Remembered it as gauntlets in the anime. Besides she only appeared in passing shots. Quote
GU-11 Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Remembered it as gauntlets in the anime. Besides she only appeared in passing shots. You're right. I just checked the anime, and it looks pretty similar to the figure (the upper half, anyways). Couldn't really make out the details in the anime, though. Then again, BRS sports a much larger canon in her action figures and statues, but in the anime it was really downsized. I guess the figs aren't really meant to be 100% anime-accurate, which is fine by me if it's an improvement. As for Strength, I actually like her fig better than her anime incarnation; IMO, she looks somewhat more "chibi" in the anime. Quote
wolfx Posted December 22, 2010 Author Posted December 22, 2010 Kirino and araragi-kun :3 Didn't they already released Yoshika some time ago? Quote
shiroikaze Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Nice attention to detail with Araragi's ahoge. Didn't they already released Yoshika some time ago? I thought she got delayed. Quote
Shaorin Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) More and more figmas. http://www.amiami.jp/shop/shop?vgForm=ProductInfo&sku=FIG-KAI-2371&template=e_review.html&set=english Come On-ta!! Eee-Hee!! Ouw!! Edited January 2, 2011 by Shaorin Quote
wolfx Posted January 20, 2011 Author Posted January 20, 2011 woah are her heels that high? XD She's from Shoot The Bullet right? Quote
shiroikaze Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) Yep, and Double Spoiler. Though I think she first appeared in one of the books... Fortunately, GSC was kind enough to include little clear stands for her shoes so she can stand on her own without the figma stand. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of 'em at the moment. I wish they painted her laces... Edited January 20, 2011 by shiroikaze Quote
wolfx Posted January 20, 2011 Author Posted January 20, 2011 Sigh. If only the touhou stuff aren't exclusive. Quote
shiroikaze Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 Sigh. If only the touhou stuff aren't exclusive. I know, I wish the same . But can't you order from Otacute? They supposedly ship internationally. Quote
wolfx Posted January 26, 2011 Author Posted January 26, 2011 (edited) White Rock Shooter....an exclusive to come with the PSP game. Edited January 26, 2011 by wolfx Quote
shiroikaze Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 (edited) Oh ho ho! Best way to sell what seems to be a crappy game. Anyway, more upcoming figmas (interesting choice on the left there...): Edited January 26, 2011 by shiroikaze Quote
wolfx Posted January 27, 2011 Author Posted January 27, 2011 I'm on the fence for Kirino and Kuroneko figmas. Not sure if i want them in action figure format.. Oh and this is some worthy news although its not figma. http://www.amiami.jp/shop/shop?vgForm=Prod...tml&set=english Quote
Negotiator Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Oh ho ho! Best way to sell what seems to be a crappy game. Anyway, more upcoming figmas (interesting choice on the left there...): OMFG DOROTHY! Thanks for the news!!!!!!! Quote
wolfx Posted January 31, 2011 Author Posted January 31, 2011 more BRS news. New character, and vehicles! It can only mean one thing. More figures and vehicles. http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/1018/b58bcedee3b99f035d89cb1.jpg http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/7788/9496a9dc88aee3a28a8d7b9.jpg Quote

Really hoping they're regular releases; that bike would look SO sweet with BRS riding it! Dear or alive, you are coming with me : http://reggiocomics.blogspot.com/2011/02/wonderfest-2011-winter-figma-robocop.html I'll buy him if they plan to release a ED-209 along with him. Quote

They're making some really odd choices, oh please oh please claymores! Edited February 7, 2011 by Negotiator Quote
Funkenstein Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Max Factory probably saw the success of Kaiyodo's Tokusatsu revoltechs. I imagine that the Alien/Aliens xenomorphs were extremely popular, which probably led to MF buying up the Robocop license. I completely believe ED-209 and RoboCain will get produced shortly after Robocop. Quote
mechaninac Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 ... I completely believe ED-209 and RoboCain will get produced shortly after Robocop. I hope you're right on that score, with the caveat that they should all be in scale with each other (app. 1/12)... if so, then I'm in for a whole set. Quote
Save Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 All I will ever need is this from the figma line. Quote
shiroikaze Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) So aside from, Dorothy from Big O (she's a June release by the way) Robocop Kuroneko from Ore no Imouto White Rock Shooter Strength from BRS another 10 different Kamen Rider figmas and that one figma that I can't identify from that magazine scan... I don't know how many of you follow Wonder Festival, but it looks like Max Factory/Good Smile is in full force, pumping out figmas and nendoroids for this year and next. http://www.dannychoo.com/post/en/26010/WF2011+Winter+Good+Smile+Company.html http://www.dannychoo.com/post/en/26017/Miku+Append+Figure.html http://absurdnormality.wordpress.com/2011/02/07/winter-wonderfest-2011-figma-coverage/ So far, what they've got for their figma line-up including the above (and not including what's up for preorder last I've checked) are: A redesigned Drossel from Fireball Suika of Touhou Miku Append Three Love Plus figmas Kanbaru and Hachikuji from Bakemonogatari Kaiji Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika two figmas from Kotono no Tsurugi There's probably more that got announced, who knows. I'm not even gonna bother listing the nendoroids cause the figmas are making my head spin already. But notably, Panty and Stocking are getting nendo releases. Cirno is the next Touhou nendoroid after Youmu and Yuyuko. Most interestingly of all is that Mickey and Minnie Mouse are getting a nendo release. Pics of the figmas, nendos, and other stuff by Good Smile in the links by the way. Random pics of release dates here from various sources. [edit]Also forgot to mention, Touma is getting a figma. Comes with nine individual cans! Edited February 20, 2011 by shiroikaze Quote

GU-11 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) BRS Strength and Miku Append are definitely on my "to pre-order" list once these are open for PO at my local hobby store. WRS looks sweet, but it's a real pity it's bundled with the PSP game; and I don't own a PSP. If only it came witha PS3 game, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Edited March 10, 2011 by GU-11 Quote
shiroikaze Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Weird, Suika is slated for a July release yet Miku Append is due in August. Yet Miku is up for preorder already... Also, production images for the Nendoroid Cirno (looks like she'll be up on Otacute soon): http://www.goodsmile.info/product/en/3109/Nendoroid+Cirno.html This is good news for me, http://www.goodsmile.info/product/en/2568/Nendoroid+Reimu+Hakurei.html http://www.goodsmile.info/product/en/2701/Nendoroid+Marisa+Kirisame.html If they're getting a reissue, that means there's a high chance that Figma Reimu will get reissued too!

raptormesh Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Managed to pick up a Miku Live Stage ver while in Osaka for 5kY(curse them limited editions ) after having no luck at all in Tokyo.(The hunt was a lot more fun than the purchase!) Needless to say, pre-ordered a couple units of that Miku Append. Edited March 11, 2011 by raptormesh Quote

shiroikaze Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Oh man, that mini Suika! The figma'd be perfect if it came with more than just one! Also, what? Nenderoid Tachikoma Here's another that's not by Max Factory/Good Smile Company, but it can walk! Megahouse Toko Toko Tachikoma Edited March 25, 2011 by shiroikaze Quote
shiroikaze Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Good Smile Company is putting out a special Nenderoid Miku reissue for preorder. Priced at 3000 yen, every 1000 yen per Miku bought will be donated to relief. http://gscmikatan.wordpress.com/2011/03/24/nendoroid-miku-hatsune-support-ver-is-here-to-cheer-on-the-recovery-of-eastern-japan/ And apparently GSC is directly making this available internationally as well. Regular preorder starts 3/25, international preorder starts 4/8. Edited March 25, 2011 by shiroikaze Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Also, what? Nenderoid Tachikoma I'm still not entirely sure how this is different from a normal tachikoma. Quote
Lynx7725 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 I'm still not entirely sure how this is different from a normal tachikoma. Proportions are a bit more SD than usual. Not that it's especially noticeable, but take a look at the arms/ pincers. Quote
