Did you forget that racy anime Ikkitousen had more cast members than Kanu? It's alright, it happens to the best of us. Griffon is here to jog your memory with a pair of blasts from the past, however, in the forms of re-released versions of Sonsaku and Ryofu. It may not be as good as new products entirely, but let's take a look and see if they may be worth a second glance anyway.
Sonsaku is first up, with a blatantly NSFW soaked shirt, presumably from all the water comprising her base. I'm not a huge fan of the figure itself, particularly the lack of detail for "modesty's" sake given her shirt is see through with seemingly nothing beneath. Still, it's one of the coolest bases I've seen in awhile, with some awesomely fluid water spiraling around her.
Ryofu may not get such a cool base, but her figure does have its own appeal. I may prefer it over Sonsaku herself, and I especially love the pattern and texturing on her dress to capture the sheen of silk. Both girls will show up in November, with Ryofu retailing for a comparatively cheap ¥6,500, and Sonsaku's fancy base skyrocketing her price to ¥7,600. Anyone ready to step into the ring with these vixens?

While last year's release of Kaitendo's original design Enma didn't seem to strike any fire in the hearts of readers here, she was apparently popular enough to warrant getting a second run. In case you missed her the first ti...

This year's Shizuoka has been my Itchy and Scratchy Land. Ready to go head over heels at all of the sights, only to be disappointed by the sameness of it all. That's not to say that there aren't gems and things to be excited ...
