This month's magazine scans brought two shapely ladies to my attention. First is a reveal of what will be the next deadly sin: Mammon. As you might know, Hobby Japan and Orchid Seed have been collaborating on a series of figures based on the seven deadly sins. By the looks of the gold coins piled at Mammon's feet, it's safe to say she probably represents greed.
Next up is a 1/8-scale Kanu Unchou, but not that Kanu. This one is from Shin Koihime Musou which, like Ikkitousen, also bastardizes a bunch of legendary Chinese heroes into buxom women. Guan Yu would be rolling over in his grave if he could see this figure. At least she comes with a spear - they got that part right. She'll be out in June 2013 for ¥9,980.

I've said before that not all blatant fanservice figures are just trashy porn, and as usual, the masterful Tony Taka proves me right again. His earlier designs from Fault!! were absolutely gorgeous, and this original Snow Whi...

Griffon continues their hit or miss streak with this lovely lady from School Days, Katsura. This time I don't think the blame is all on them however, as the series' fairly big-eyed art style is a bit awkward when viewed in 3D...

Kristina and Pedro already mentioned some of the goods that MegaHouse had on display at the MegaHobby Expo in Japan but the series that really caught my eye are the Koubu from Sakura Taisen (Sakura Wars, in English). As you m...

Despite all the Muv-Luv attention out there, I can't recall seeing too much attention given to one Meiya Mitsurugi, at least compared to some others like, say, Inia. I'm definitely pleased to see Kotobukiya stepping up to fil...

Since Pedro already posted up the Naruto-related G.E.M. series additions, I am taking up the slack here with a Gintama-related G.E.M. series figure, Ginpachi-sensei! This prototype was shown at Megahoubby Expo by MegaHouse, a...

At the spring Megahobby Expo, Kotobukiya unveiled some very nice new figures. For me, the biggest news was seeing a new addition to their Yu-Gi-Oh! ArtFx line. Yes, among the previously released Yu-Gi-Oh! figures, there was ...

Continuing with our Megahobby Spring 2013 coverage, I present a pair of, wait for it, G.E.Ms! *crickets* Ahem. Well, awful humor aside, I've seriously got some new additions to the G.E.M. line, both from the perennially&...
