Wonder Festival 2012 Summer: Game Garage Kits (part 1)"I WILL ******* ON YOUR GRAVE!!!" Gamer fans may still be squealing at the news of the D-Arts Terry Bogard but the garage kit makers are already one step ahead and have made their own poseable Geese Howard!! They just need to make an equally cool website to go with him! (Incidentally, does anyone actually know what Geese says at the start of each fight?) There was quite a strong showing from the video game side of things at this years summer Wonder Festival and leading the charge were the girls of 765 pro or, even more simply put, the Idolm@ster! No doubt, the recently aired (and rather good) anime series had more than a little helping hand here! But there were plenty of surprises as well, Including a few kits of Kat from the PS Vita exclusive, Gravity Rush! There were also kits of the mecha of Metal Gear Solid 4 as well as more of the girls from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 and we even got an Asura from Asura's Wrath. There was even a kit of the Edelweiss from Valkyria Chronicles! I'm just happy to see Takane and Chihaya getting some representation. I like Miki as well, but she's a PVC figure darling and we have plenty of choice when it comes to her! Haruka as WonderMomo was also really cute! Then again, I'm sure most of you are eyeing that Geese Howard!!
