A lot of my first PVC figures were from Kotobukiya’s Shining Wind/Tears series. I started out with vinyl, so I base my purchases on design, and very few people are better at that than Tony Taka. I remember being stunn... more
Ever since Max Factory unveiled their 1/6 Mari Illustrious (reviewed), I've been waiting for orders to go up for the other girls. MF likes to cash in on long figure lines, like their K-On! gals, but it seemed like Mari would ... more
Kidrobot's booth seemed to be packed every time I walked by it during SDCC. But then again, with their plethora of exclusive releases and signings, the lines were really no surprise! They had MAD's Robber Dunny in an exclusiv... more
We already showed you some previews of Munky King's SDCC releases, the Ryniak Misfortune Cat and Luke Chueh's White In Black, but that wasn't all this awesome company was showing off at the convention! They had a third exclus... more
Super7 brought out the big guns again this year at SDCC, with a veritable ton of exclusives and several shiny new prototypes. Their exclusives were flying off the shelves, and throughout the show they had to restock several t... more
One of the nice things about SDCC is that most companies tend to stay in the same place. For example, Kotobukiya was at the same giant booth as last year, right across from Diamond. However, their displays changed a lot fr... more

Kotobukiya really seems to be on a roll with their SDCC releases. Last year, they had just White Phoenix (reviewed), but this year we have Evil Supergirl (reviewed), Diamond Emma Frost (reviewed), and a special version of Sue... more
So the new X-Men movie was pretty decent, and the only thing that really bugged me (aside from the brutal mispronunciation of Azazel) was Emma Frost. Emma is supposed to be a strong-willed, feisty woman who doesn't take shit ... more
When I reviewed the original Supergirl, I liked her a lot but she didn't rank among my favorite Bishoujo simply because I am not a huge fan of her character. The sculpt was great, I loved the clear hair, but she's just a bit ... more
Last year at San Diego Comic Con, Munky King debuted a vinyl rendition (reviewed) of Luke Chueh's Black in White painting. Anything designed by Chueh is bound to be a commercial success, so it was no surprise when a second bl... more
Once upon a time, Chris Ryniak made an amazing custom out of Playge' Misfortune Cat. The custom ended up at a show at Munky King, and it was so wildly popular that they decided to make a production version. The piece was shru... more
