Pre-orders open for Kotobukiya's Ikaruga kit

Pre-orders open for Kotobukiya's Ikaruga kit photo


Rewind to October of last year, when we first saw the unpainted model of the Ikaruga shown at the All Japan Hobby Model Show. This is not the first time we have seen a model of the ship from the beloved Dreamcast shooter, but it is by far the most affordable kit we've seen so far. And now you can buy it!

Thanks to the sharp eye sof Tomopop reader v2gundam, we now know that Kotobukiya's kit is open for pre-order. It's slated for a release in June and will cost ¥3,840 (US$46.55). Now, assembly is required, so be aware you aren't going to get a box with a complete ship in it, but if you're willing to do a bit of work, you can have this beauty on your shelf very soon.

Assembly and paint or just assembly?

If it's anything like previous kotobukiya kits-paint optional (recommended perhaps).
Hopefully decals will be provided for those pretty details.
I'd so steal that.
pre ordered so fast. Now I want the black one.

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku 2.0 is ready to go

It feels like forever and a decade ago that we found out that (unsurprisingly) Hatsune Miku would embody Nendoroid #300. I guess it also helps that the announcement was rather forgettable, but this release preview by Mikatan ...

Tomopop Review: Kotobukiya's Tekken Bishoujo Lili

I 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!
