Medicom Toy x Good Smile Company x Max Factory bring us a Real Action Hero version of Madoka! A fantastic looking release here and a real treat for those who buy her. Then again, if they make a Tomoe Real Action Hero…
Asuka Evangelion Decoupage Cabinet
Thought I would jazz up my plain bedside cabinet using cuttings of Asuka from old Evangelion Comics.
Finally getting around to painting the Asuka bust, hopefully I’ll get some pics up soon.
Super-creative and super-awesome, this is a great customisation!
I haven’t been watching Senki Zesshou Symphogear but I’m a sucker for sci-fi style figures (like my Exelica Nendoroid) and I really like the look of the newly announced Hibiki Tachibana (たちばなひびき) Nendoroid. I’ll have to see if I can fit it into my collection when it’s released!
I couldn’t resist posting a photo of this cute little critter, known as a pangolin - kind of like an anteater, armadillo and skunk rolled up into one, but not related to any of those! Unfortunately, those razor-sharp scales means it will never be as cuddly as it looks…
After seeing the popularity of my Welcome to Nerv Base post, I thought I’d post something else that I really like but haven’t been able to get - the Tsumivine Battle of Evangelion vignette set. It features five different sets, each portraying a pivotal battle scene from the first two Rebuild of Evangelion films. Even better, you can put them together to make one awesome Evangelion vignette!
Each set features one of the Evangelions - Unit 00, 01, 03, Provisional Unit 05 and 06 - against one of the Angels, with the exception of Unit 06 which didn’t get any on-screen combat time.
Really looking forward to the third movie by the way… You Can (Not) Redo… “This time, Shinji Ikari, I will make you happy!”…
I’ve opened the J-List fukubukuro (lucky bag) package now and found out what I’ve got! Check out my review and thoughts on my blog at http://www.kyokohunter.net/blog-items/10-japan/66-j-list-2012-fukubukuro-review
Something interesting has arrived on my doorstep this morning from J-List - a box with an anime ‘fukubukuro’ (lucky bag) inside! Can’t wait to open it later!
Here’s something really awesome - the Welcome to Nerv Base set featuring Petit Eva! My partner and I picked up two of these sets when we visited Evangelion World at Fuji-Q Highland. Unfortunately we didn’t realise just how hard these would be to find, otherwise we would have got all of the sets to build the Nerv headquarters!
I love how you can slot them all together to make the building and then open it up to show some of the key locations in Evangelion. We have the Gendo and Asuka sets, so we only need three more to complete!
Imuka and Makise Kurisu - Nendoroid Double Review on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
Imuka from Valkyria Chronicles 3 and Makise Kurisu from Steins;Gate are two of my most recent Nendoroid additions to my collection, so I thought I’d pit them against each other in a double review battle of brains versus brawn!
