Hobby Japan brings you another deadly sinHobby Japan and Orchid Seed have teamed up for an original series of figures, "The Seven Deadly Sins." The first entry, covered by Emily (NSFW), was Asmodeus who personified lust. This time we have Leviathan, showing the world the deadly sin of tsundere. Wait, I meant "envy." You don't see a whole lot of original characters from Japanese figure makers, though Orchid Seed has been known to sell a few. I just like seeing new designs, and Leviathan looks like she'll have a nice punk look going. The prototype in the scans is pretty well executed too as I especially like her face and proportions. There's no pre-order, pricing, or release info yet but seeing as this is a Hobby Japan thing, I expect this figure to be hard to get. So I guess it does kind of play into the whole envy thing.

10:00 PM on 02.22.2013 Satan joins the Seven Deadly Sins lineAlthough there was no physical model, we can at least marvel in the design of Satan. She'll be the next to join Hobby Japan and Orchid Seed's ambitious Seven Deadly Sins figures. If you're trying to make sense of the drawing,...
9:00 PM on 02.22.2013 Hobby Japan's Kanetsugu Naoe looks pretty in pinkGender swap anime Hyakka Ryouran certainly isn't shy about showing off its female cast, and pervy figure collectors like me are thankful for it. Alter and Hobby Japan made a Kanetsugu Naoe swimsuit figure last year, and now t...
