Hey there everyone, this is Tominon.
I went to
Tamashii Nation 2010 at Akihabara UDX put together by the Bandai Collectors Division on 10/1, so I'd like to show you what it was like!
I arrived around noon but the place was packed and the lines were really long! These Bandai events are always huge!
As always, I'll be covering the event over the span of a few entries.
* Hobby Search was granted permission to photograph this otherwise photo-prohibited event.
The venue was divided up into themed sections like this.
In this entry I'll be going over the green area,
"It's the arts - S.H.Figuarts".
* S.H.Figuarts Shinken Red
* S.H.Figuarts Shinken Red Shiba Kaoru (Sample)
Shinken Red now in Figuarts! Along with the giant Rekka Daizantou you can have him swing around!
The Shodouphone and Shinkenmaru are planned to come with it too.
Samurai Sentai Shinkenger! It'll be awesome to have them all lined up.
* S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider The First Kamen Rider-1
* S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider1 (THE NEXT)
* S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Black

* S.H.Figuarts Fuuto-kun (Painted sample)
Fuuto-kun, the little guy from W whose popularity is on the rise (!?) is finally joining the Figuarts lineup!
They also had displays of scenes from Kamen Rider W there.
This is from episode 28,
D was Watching/Twin Maximum Fury.
Accel's head was actually made new specifically for this!
From episode 32,
B Brought on a Storm/Now, In that Shining, the memorable scene where he first changes into Extreme form.
Episode 36,
Beyond the R/Surpass them All.
Episode 4,
Don't Dabble in M/Play With a Joker. All of the Sonozaki family!
And last but not least, one of the highlights of the Figuarts booth!
A Figuarts scale RevolGarry in a scene from the show's opening,
W-B-X |W-Boiled Extreme~!
It's huge! It's going to cost a fortune if it actually gets released.
So that was the (first half of) the
It's the arts - S.H.Figuarts section. There's still more coming!
Bonus Section: Look What Else They Had There!
Mazinger Z Rocket Punch Corner!
Put on the arm part and stand there and you too can become Mazinger Z!
The staff were calling people in, saying "it's only embarassing for a moment!" (haha).
That's it! See you next time!
- Tominon
* Bonus *
They were handing out these micro Robot Spirits Gundam to everyone that went!
It's an exact miniature of the normal Robot Spirits packaging!
Clear Gundam with Momotaros.
Here, have some sushi. It's on me.
