Oh Ichiban Kuji, how you love to torture me with all your unobtainable seductions! A little while back Chris Seto gave us a look at some of the unpainted shots of these upcoming figures, and the final images have really piqued my interest. Next week Macross Frontier:Wing of Goodbye is set to drop in theaters theaters along with a bunch of Ichiban Kuji goods celebrating the release. 

I'm pretty hyped for the "A" prize Ranka figure. The entire outfit is removable revealing a swim suit of some sorts underneath. The most appealing detail has to be the sandals. The awkward and realistic fit to them is starting to make me think I have some sort of foot fetish! 

I can't quite put into words what a huge Macross F fan I am, but for some reason I can't stomach any of the chibi figures they have released for the series. There is something about the styling of the eyes in combination with the small forms that just doesn't sit well with me. When I first saw the pictures of Sheryl in the military outfit I really did think it was Mikhail at first. To me, that's just not a good thing. Does anybody on Tomopop collect them? Am I missing out? Hit the jump for the full release.

Prize A - Maiko outfit Ranka

Prize B - Military Sheryl

Prize C - Nyan-Nyan mug

Prize D - Sheryl sports towl

Prize E - Girasama Sheryl phone strap

Prize F - Diva Collection figure - 4 different blind box figures

All in all, this is not a bad Ichiban Kuji line up. Any of these getting you ready to book your ticket overseas? If you do happen to be in Tokyo at the time, makes sure to purchase your tickets early to get a chance at some of these goodies, and please snag me a Nyan-Nyan mug to add to my Nyan-Nyan bowl set.

I'm also a very big fan of Macross F. The previous chibi figures haven't really appealed to me either. But I have to say these look really cute. My wallet already is at near bursting point with everything amazing that's coming out this year. I think I might try to get these though. I'd definately go for Ranka in the maiko outfit. I'd dare say it's one of the really nicer figures of her I've seen. It's a shame her hair seems a little flat, but that aside I really like the pose. Wish there was some more Klang. I'd love to see some nicer ones of her. Hopefully with the second movie out we'd see some more stuff come out.
Ooooo...As a huge Macroos F fan I must have those Sheryl's. They are all too cute. I hope I am able to grab the set somehow. With the movie being released next week I'm sure more goodies will follow. I wish they would make another Alto chibi like they did for the first set of Ichiban prizes.
I also must get that pretty Ranka, at all costs! (I kinda gave up on chibi prizes since I never get what I want.)

I also thought it was Mikhail there o_o personally I love her previous military uniform (the one she uses to sing Iteza Gogo Kuji Don't be late) so I wasn't happy with this new one.
Ah, Ranka my love, my weakness, I will figure out how to get thee.

Shizuoka Hobby Show: Roll out the re-colors edition

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...

Senran Kagura's Ikaruga fights her way to pre-orders

With a number of producers trying their hands at the lovely Katsuragi, it's only natural Griffon would jump on the Senran Kagura bandwagon themselves. While the blonde beauty seems to be everyone's favorite, Griffon's branche...

Kaitendo's Enma reignites for more pre-orders

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...
