MegaHobby Expo 2012 Spring: Alter
Hi folks! It's a lovely day to be indoors and admiring awesome upcoming figures and goodies from our favorite companies, and now that Natalie has kicked off our coverage with this intro post, I'll start by posting up Alter's offerings for the show. Some of the highlights include Accelerator (fully painted, Altair), an unpainted prototype of Mirakurun from Yuru Yuri, Laura Bodewig from Infinite Stratos, Yagyuu Gisen (recently seen in this month's magazine scans), an adorable Cure Muse being created by Alpha x Omega, and some teases for an upcoming Fate/Zero figure (announcement for Water Velvet) and Ittoki (Altair) from Uta no Prince Sama. Pictures for these last two are from Akiba Hobby. From Moeyo I included an image of the announcement for Panty and Stocking's Scanty. Check out the gallery, courtesy our friends at Tokyo Hunter and the photographer, Ramon McGlown! Everything looks great, and I'm pretty excited to see prototype images of the UtaPri boys as well as painted versions of some of the other things we're seeing today. Did you know?

10:30 AM on 08.15.2012 Connect with pre-orders for Aquarion's MikonoEasily one of the trippier giant robot series around, there's at least no denying the appeal of Aquarion's character designs. Bright and colorful, they seem to beg to be turned into collectibles, and we've already seen a numb...
11:00 AM on 06.29.2012 Get inspired to pre-order this Cure MuseDespite my love for all things mahou shoujo, I still have yet to see anything related to the behemoth that is PreCure. I've always wanted to get started, but it's more than a little daunting! Even so, I've always looked on th...

7:00 PM on 12.28.2011 A new Suzaku gallery? Yes, my Lord!While I may not be the most eager to cover the already-limited number of male figures we see every now and then, I am a huge enough Code Geass fan that I'll be ready to jump on just about anything new from the franchise. In t...
