Hey there everyone, this is Tominon.
I went to the
Hobby Maker Show Summer 2010 (for hobby distributors and industry people) at Akihabara UDX!
Most of the samples were already shown at Wonder Festival earlier but I was able to get lots of pictures of new figures!
I'll be covering this show across a few entries, so here's the first!
WAVE
* Costume K-On! Series (Winter 2010 onwards)
Bet you didn't expect those creepy costumes from early season two to become figures!
Their faces are disturbing, but yet... kind of... cute?
* Anegasaki Nene Wave Version
* Kobayakawa Rinko Wave Version (Winter)
WAVE wasn't going to release only Nene. Now we finally have Manaka and Rinko!
Here's Rinko - check out the anatomy on this one. Her ribcage, hips, and around her collar, shoulders, and of course that chest!
* Takane Manaka Wave Version (Winter)
The sideways V pose from
that scene.
I guess she liked it enough to do it again at the beach.
* Kuroko Shiraishi (Winter)
Kuroko, running towards Mikoto with her arms open (never to catch her, of course).
This bikini sure is tiny... I can't wait to see it painted!
* Izumi Konata Beach Queens Ver.
* Hiragi Kagami Beach Queens Ver.
They're great individually, but twice as cute locked together like this!
Kagami's buns are adorable and you can swap them out for her usual hair if you want, too.
* Kusakabe Misao Uniform Ver.
* Kawashima Ami Wave Ver.
* Kushieda Minori Wave Ver.
* Aisaka Taiga Beach Queens Ver.
Toradora!
These figures are based on the swimsuits from episode 10 of the anime. Two hairstyles are included for twice the fun.
* Fujino Shizuru Wave Version
* VF-1A Fighter General Machine
To think that this is only 1/100 scale!
KONAMI
* Busou Shinki Sharatang
For the first time ever, Busou Shinki light up! This one had flashing red lights.
* Busou Shinki Baby Razz
And this one blue.
* Busou Shinki Renfa
* Busou Shinki Gabrine
Yoshitsune Izuna (Gad Guard, Diebuster mech design, etc) designed Renfa and Gabrine.
They come with three different face parts.
* Busou Shinki Maryceles
* Busou Shinki Proxima
* Busou Shinki Olbern
* Busou Shinki Zilvern
* Busou Shinki Artille
* Busou Shinki Raptias

Amiami
* Strike Witches Perrine Clostermann
She's just about to unleash her lightning spell
Tonnerre.
Perrine herself looks great, but so do her Striker Unit and Bren!

Well that's it for this time! See you soon!
