It seems like Griffon may be preparing to host a Queens Blade tournament of its own, as suddenly there's a bevy of hotties from, well, Queens Blade all set to be re-released this coming November. Get those credit cards ready! A huge amount of characters are all arriving with release dates in close proximity, so I feel very bad for completionists and series fans who haven't picked these ladies all up in the past.
You'll be seeing no less than Nanael, Allean, Claudette, Echidna, Airi, Ymir, Mellona, and Tomoe's 2P version, all ready to duke it out. As far as the ridiculous perviness of Queens Blade goes, I have to say that at least the figures are of generally decent quality--though I prefer those with castoffable options to remain as covered as they're able.
I like the less over-the-top characters myself, so I've got my eyes on Nanael and Allean in particular, with Airi a close third. Mellona on the other hand, well. No thank you. I like my lady parts to refrain from shooting acid goo, thanks. In any case, prices will range from ¥7,600 to ¥7,980, so they won't come cheap! Any battling beauty catch your eyes?

When Kotobukiya first announced that Jonouchi Katsuya would be to be joining Yami Yugi (reviewed) and Seto Kaiba (reviewed) in the ArtFX J line, I was pretty ecstatic. As a fan of the Yu-Gi-Oh! series, I felt the line was a ...

No doubt that Transformers Masterpiece figures are popular. Be it from Hasbro or Takara Tomy they have a tendency to sell out pretty quickly as pre-orders, to say nothing of their actual release date. It's pretty common for t...
