Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Atelier Hiro and Atomic-Bom

Spotted at Treasure Festa in Ariake 9 were Atelier Hiro's gorgeous Miku kits, along with his Girls und Panzer pieces. The two Mikus look particularly amazing; look at the detail on her hair! I especially like the one with the...

Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Amie-Grand

Amie-Grand had some nice figures at Treasure Festa with my personal favorite being Asuka. I like the concept, with her chilling on a really cool NERV-themed base. You can also see a polystone 1/6-scale Chuubou Sonken from Ikk...

X marks the spot for a re-release of Rei

It seems like even longer than a couple years ago when we took a look at Amie Grand's gorgeous gothy Rei of Evangelion fame. In the time since then, I've grown no love for the overly popular character, but nor has any been lo...

Miyazawa Model Expo 31: Vertex and Ques Q

For smaller companies, Miyazawa Model Exhibition serves as a good place to remind us what they're coming out with. Both Ques Q and Vertex did that, with Ques Q bringing its swimsuit Aisaka Taiga and school uniform Aegis....

Miyazawa Model Expo 31: Kaiyodo's Revoltech

EVA-01 and Mark.06 team up in this Revoltech twin pack

If you just can't get enough of Revoltech's take on the Evangelion mechs (and heaven knows there have been a lot) then this latest two pack might be just the trick.  Kaiyodo have taken the previously released Revolt...

Wonder Festival 2013 Winter: Vertex

Vertex seems to have a thing for girls with swords, if their prototypes at WonFes 2013 Winter were any indication. First and foremost, the previously announced Mitsuru was there as a full unpainted figure ... but I dunno abou...

Wonder Festival 2013 Winter: Sega Prize figures

The scorn of many collectors is that of the prize figure. Oh so cheap yet so much harder to reliably get. The newest collection of prize figures by Sega may just enrage you by how much you'll want them. There's the typical su...

Pirate Asuka takes to the seas

We saw this Asuka figure in magazine scans a while ago, but then I just kind of forgot about it. Now Kotobukiya's latest Asuka treatment is up for pre-order. The preview galleries for this figure sure do look pretty. This is ...

Kotobukiya's Asuka looking lovely in these scans

This month's batch of scans has given us a little something fun to look at: the first color images of Kotobukiya's upcoming Asuka figure from the Evangelion films. While their past Asuka really haven't set my world on fire, t...
