Volks are going full force with GK for Wonder FestivalThe monthly magazine scans may have given away much of the surprise but it seems that Volks still had a few tricks up their sleeves as they have just opened up their Wonder Festival page on their main site to show what they will be taking to the event in a couple of weeks time. As shown in the scans, there will be a new kit from an add-on for Walkure Romanze in the guise of Alice Weinberg. She will be joined by the other two recent releases, Ryozouji Akane and Bertille Alchiselle at the Volks booth. Also, a completely new kit of Koishikawa Tamami from new eroge hanairo Heptagram will also be on sale. There was a tiny pic of her in the magazine scans but we have a clear (and coloured) look at her now! Akiyama Akari will be on display for the charagumin side along with yet another member of the Girls und Panzer cast, Isuzu Hana. Rounding up the rest are various senjustuki variants from Muv-Luv alternative and the enormous duo of KOS-MOS and T-ELOS, both with huge pricetags to match their 1/4 scale. It's great to see KOS-MOS available again after years of nothing but I can't help but be at least a little annoyed by the release of T-ELOS since she will be released as both a regular unpainted kit and a charagumin kit! Having recently received the Charagumin kit, I'm not all that impressed by the workmanship, as the colour resin kit still needs a lick of paint to look decent, in which case, I would have preferred to go for the unpainted (and ¥10k cheaper) regular kit had I known that they would have made it available again so soon... Dammit... [via Volks WF page] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.

1:00 AM on 05.07.2013 [NSFW] Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Mouse UnitAn old friend returned at Treasure Festa from the folks at Mouse Unit, the bikini-clad Zettai Tora. All colored up, she probably needs to invest in a bigger swimsuit, but she looks pretty damn good regardless. Her hat's even ...

I'm highlighting three of them in this post: From 83 C, we have an old kit of theirs of Yagami H...

10:30 PM on 05.05.2013 Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Atelier Hiro and Atomic-BomSpotted at Treasure Festa in Ariake 9 were Atelier Hiro's gorgeous Miku kits, along with his Girls und Panzer pieces.

10:00 PM on 05.05.2013 Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Amie-GrandAmie-Grand had some nice figures at Treasure Festa with my personal favorite being Asuka. I like the concept, with her chilling on a really cool NERV-themed base. You can also see a polystone 1/6-scale Chuubou Sonken from Ikk...
9:30 PM on 05.05.2013 Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Girls und PanzerFor every one of these events, there's always the glut of characters flooding the tables. Miku, Saber, Tamaki, Nanoha, etc. It just goes on and on. While those girls are here too, I've noticed that one new show has begun to d...

3:00 PM on 05.05.2013 Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Moon WriterIt's no secret that there are figures posed in very, very odd ways. It's even more odd to explain it to family members. They're provocative without any semblance of reality. "Why is her back like that?" "She's going to topple...
2:30 PM on 05.05.2013 Treasure Festa in Ariake 9: Gift chooses its Saber BrideTo my disappointment, Gift has held on to making more plushes than PVC. When they do get to making a PVC, it's usually a Saber. I'm not in anyway a fan of Fate, but I love this marriage of the two entities. It's fitting then ...
