Super Sonico poses for Alphamax's gravure photoshoot

Super Sonico poses for Alphamax's gravure photoshoot photo


The busty mascot of Nitroplus has seen her fair share of figures based on the many pieces of art that exist of her. And there's still plenty more to come with the number of drawings that keep getting produced. Alphamax has one coming that does away with complicated outfits and keeps it simple.

Next year, Alphamax will be releasing the 1/6 scale Super Sonico Swimsuit Gravure Ver. featuring Sonico in a simple swimsuit and her trademark headphones. ...wait. If this is the gravure version of Sonico, then what were all those other figure releases? There really isn't much to say about this figure. It's Sonico. In a swimsuit. She also comes in a shirt with stockings and heels. ...wait again. Who wears stockings and heels for a swim?

Anyway, Alphamax brings every round, shapely curve of Sonico into this figure that I actually don't mind. Maybe because of its simplicity of just her being in a swimsuit that doesn't have me looking away. Of course it wouldn't be an Alphamax figure or a Sonico figure for that matter if you can't remove her top... Aye...

Alphamax's Super Sonico Swimsuit Gravure Ver. is retailing for ¥8,200 and will be available in May, 2012. What do you say? One of the nicer Sonico figures or is there one you already like or wish to see made? I'm still waiting for someone to finally make a cat ear hoodie version of Sonico but that'll probably never happen because, you know, she's completely dressed. I'll just look at my plush version and keep dreaming.

Tomopop Review: Alphamax's Ichika Takatsuki

Every time this lovely lady shows up, I've mentioned my attraction to the similarly styled Mizuho from Onegai Teacher. That series may be long since over, but Mizuho's successor from Waiting in the Summer has certainly been m...

How appropriate, Sena. You look like a cow

[update: Added an image to the gallery that is probably the source artwork for this figure! It also appears that this originates from something in the manga. I don't know anything else beyond that at the time of writing~][upd...

Alphamax's Golden Darkness looks golden in this preview

I make no bones about it: I'm critical of swimsuit figures because to me, they're pretty lazy from a design perspective. There is, however, one thing that sets Alphamax's Golden Darkness apart. It's all about that little...

Catch Alphamax's Chinatsu before she takes a dip

There are as many swimsuit figures as there are fish in the sea, but that won't stop Alphamax from adding to the selection. I suppose as long as there are characters to fit into swimsuits, there will be swimsuit figures. This...

[NSFW] This latest Fault!! figure goes all in

We've seen some rather racy Fault!! figures before, but compared a lot of trashy designs they managed to pull the style off thanks in no small part to the lovely artwork of designer Tony Taka. The lineup is apparently quite a...
