Griffon brings Touhou Project's Hong Meiling and Yuka Kazami to shoot for your wallet
Griffon Enterprises continues to churn out new 1/8 scale figures from Touhou Project and... and... oh my. Why hello there. And who might you be you be? Yuka Kazami? That's a cute umbrella you have there and your dress is lovely. I also like what you did with your hair. Has anyone told you that you have a sweet smile? Oh, how I wish I had gobs of money. I'm completely smitten with Yuka. This is another one of those figures where I know that it'll bring a smile to my face when looking at it. Such a friendly aura radiating from it. Then you have the other release, Hong Meiling. What happened. You try to seduce people with your midriff showing and baring as much leg as possible. But your face. What happened? It looks like you were in an old Tom & Jerry cartoon and had you face smashed in by a frying pan. But looking at sculptor Akio Akiyama's past works such as Remilia Scarlet and Houraisan Kaguya, that just seems to be their style. Both figures are available for pre-order at AmiAmi. Yuka Kazami is selling for 7,000 yen and Hong Meiling is set at 6,250 yen. Both will be available in late January. Maybe if I save up, I can purchase Yuka. Either one catch your fancy? Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I think Yuka looks charming in these photos. Meiling's face disappoints me though, which is a shame because I like her and was really looking forward to how Griffon would portray her. DNW demure (and kinda blank) Yuka. Shame, her outfit and props are looking good.
Smug or psychotic face please. 9:00 AM on 05.23.2013 Cuddle up with this Mega Man amigurumiPixelBlock's shop is full of sweet video game plushes, but this Mega Man amigurumi stood out to be. I'm not sure why; I'm not even that big of a Mega Man fan. It's a combination of the simplistic design, the attention to deta...

4:00 PM on 05.16.2013 Tomopop Review: Kotobukiya's Tekken Bishoujo LiliI haven't played a lot of Tekken games in my life, but I am enjoying Kotobukiya's Tekken Bishoujo figures. Overall, it's a solid line of figures. The latest one to arrive is Emilie de Rochefort, otherwise known as Lili. This figure has its unique charms, as I was pleased to discover during the review process. Read on to see what I mean!
