I know this is sudden... But Gabas is on his way to planet sicksick, so I'm standing in for him. Yup, hey there everyone. Tomeko here. Then again, I always end up sharing the weirdest things... I guess I shall just take my time blabbing on about items that caught my attention recently. Legend of the Galactic Heroes Fleet File Collection Vol.9  [Legend of the Galactic Heroes], a.k.a. [LoGH], a Sci-Fi war story based on the battle between the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance, set in the galaxy. This Fleet Files Collection is the 9th of the long series that has been turning the ships from the story into models. This latest volume is centered around Bittenfeld's flagship Konieg Tiegel, the "Wild Boar" of Lohengramm, and the fleet under his command. And the past series are also going to be restocked, so why not take this opportunity and collect the lot? Doki Doki (Heart Pounding) Animal Series -Capybara- (seated)  The 3rd volume of the series that turns interesting animals popular on the web (?) and turns them into models. First was the Alpaca, then the Shoebill, and this time it's the world's largest known mouse, Capybara! Apparently the name means [Lord of the Meadows], if you trace back its origin. My lord. But yeah, the snout. I could just picture it sniffing around making weird noises. So innocent.  The bottom looks so puffy! So charming, isn't it? I've seen the cage of Capybara at Ueno zoo before, but I remember it just lazing around, not showing any signs of intent on moving at all and all I could see was mostly its back... Oh and the image there is the sitting version, but there is also a standing version will also be released at the same date. You can get the one you favor, or collect both so they won't be lonely. May be if you buy two and leave them in the dark, Right, anyway. The last item to share for the day is the latest of mecha figurine series by Alter, popular for their high quality, the [Almecha] series. The previous item, ARX-7 Arbalest was a top class product, regarding the coloring, mold, and its range of poses. Linebarrel  Linebarrel Override Miyazawa Limited  The popular comic that was even turned to anime, [Linebarrel of Iron], the main character machine is here. Plus, the Override version from when the heroin was piloting it has been produced as Miyazawa limited edition and released at the same time, a very extravagant move.  The complicated form and sharp outline has been strongly reproduced. It would've turned out very messy if it wasn't for their high level of skill. As expected from Alter, they won't slack even the slightest.  It can be posed very well. Lets display it with your favorite stance! Since it's a robot, you can't help play around with it.  The cockpit can be opened too,  and the pilot is different, between the Normal Version and Override version too, strictly true to the original settings. So there you go, the two high quality items, with slightly high cost (...) But since the SAL sale is still on, I would recommend you to take advantage of it while you can! Only til feb 28th, so be quick! Right, its getting warm, but I hope everyone will be careful not to catch the cold. By Tomeko, who prefers the Atrocious path, over the Obvious or the Glorious. |
