Last year I took a look at some rather twisted versions of the seven deadly sins personified. While they were the stuff of nightmares, this new line from Orchid Seed might be the cause of some very different dreams indeed. They've teamed up with Hobby Japan to produce some very sexy and very exclusive figures, with, as you might expect, each sin's "prince" personified by your usual busty vixen.
The first we get a look at is none other than Asmodeus, the Image of Lust, and what an image she is. I might not usually go for the overly endowed types, but there's no denying Orchid Seed did a fine job. Even with my weakness for redheads aside, I adore her wing-like cloak and outfit in general, and the little heart on an otherwise demonic base is a very nice nod to her domain.
Of course, being Orchid Seed, she's also castoffable, getting you a nice look at her goods as well, and it seems like they're playing up the pervy angle to the max with a special edition arriving complete with a tissue box cover. Yeah.
It's always a shame when tempting figures are so exclusive, but alas, exclusive she is. You can get an order in with your favorite proxy service though, and she'll arrive just in time to warm the chilly winter next February, though expect to fork over around ¥12,400 or slightly less if you'd like to go without the tissue cover. Hopefully it won't be sorely missed.
If you missed him the first time around, you missed out on a great Nendoroid of Nozomu Itoshiki. He was my very first Nendoroid and it holds a special place in my collection for a number of reasons. As the recipient of a grea...

We saw Alphamax's one-piece dress Kirino go up for pre-orders a few weeks ago and, as is the immutable law when it comes to Oreimo, Kuroneko was sure to follow soon. Now she's here, sporting a similar dressed-down look to Kir...

There's a fine line between milking the cow and killing the golden goose. Bandai's Premium Web Shop walks the line like a guy with a blood alcohol level of 0.08. While a few of their efforts aren't too offensive, when you sta...

Reaching into the world of hentai doujinshi, Orchid Seed shows off their classiness once again with this release of Chiharu Nishikawa from Class Maid. Perhaps a pun on "classmate", perhaps not, but knowing how "cleverly" prod...
