It would appear that Griffon Enterprises is re-releasing their 2008 Shana figurine (at least one). Maybe in time for season three? According to their site they list a November release date

SHE'S HERE!

Unfortunately the DX version is 16000 Yen (including shipping) from GSC's online shop. My wallet T-T

Griffon finally showing some official proto shots of Okuu:

Nightbat® · 2011-09-01, 17:29

Hm, lately (better said 2011) I'm pretty disappointed in the figure offerings
mikus till you see blue, Touhous by the dozens, tons and tons of Nendos
(no offense to the fans of those, I guess I'm "out of the target demographic"

)

I only pulled the trigger on the Raquel Gothic/Lolita Sisters, the only figs I considered interesting so far

The only WonFes figures (which I always look forward to because it usually offers many interesting things) that caught my eye were the 18+'s (Since I have a "No Nudity Rule" those are out of the question)

Now I know there are trends every year, but I could appreciate a (to my tastes) good "N'th" Haruhi Suzuyima or one amongst 100s of Kanu Unchou figures, or dozens of characters I wasn't a fan of or even aware it existed

what has caught my attention or had me raise an eyebrow has been very little so far this year
I'm hoping things will spice up soon

user42 · 2011-09-01, 21:31

Can someone please tell me who these characters are (or who the artist is)?
They were gifts with out boxes...

Xion Valkyrie · 2011-09-01, 21:36

Those are supposed to be random girls by Range Murata, but uh, they totally look like knock-offs because the faces are really off.

LOL
Thanks.

Ichihara Asako · 2011-09-02, 00:19

I caved and ordered Yune and Erio nendos. They're too cute to pass up even if they break my collecting rules. ;.;

I'm still on the fence here.....

Something's off during the transition. But the chance of reusing the Kimono body is too good to pass up.

Ichihara Asako · 2011-09-02, 07:38

I mostly just wanted her surprised face. It's too adorable. It breaks my collection rules since she's not a mimi, but I can use her parts on other nendos, so it's fine ultimately. ^^;

grylsyjaeger · 2011-09-07, 03:44

I finally ordered some of the TSF kits from Muv-Luv.

I've got the Kotobukiya Takemikazuchi Type-00R and F/A-18 Hornet TSF inbound from AmiAmi. Looking forward to putting them together and giving them some touch up paint.

I plan to pose the Hornet like the one on the cover of The Day After VN with the combat talon in one hand and the 36mm rifle held outstretched in the other.

I just got my nendo Madoka today.

She was my fastest SAL package ever, arriving in the country in just 6 days, shipped Aug. 27 and arrived Sept. 2.

This even beat the one EMS package I had a couple of years ago, which took longer than a week to reach me. I was pleasantly surprised to get a parcel claim notice way ahead of time just the other day, since all of my other packages from AmiAmi before Madoka always reached me after more or less a month of waiting.

grylsyjaeger · 2011-09-07, 08:23

Wow that is pretty bloody fast for SAL!

The quickest something by SAL ever reached me was like three and a half weeks. Way too long!

Cute Madoka by the way, I still need to watch that show.

Kudryavka · 2011-09-07, 20:27

@ Coldlight
Yeah, that's really fast for SAL. Fastest I've gotten a SAL package is 14 days, and I live close to Customs, too. :?

grylsyjaeger · 2011-09-08, 04:22

Got confirmation that Minna has shipped today!

Coldlight · 2011-09-08, 07:27

Judging from the other comments on nendo Madoka's MFC page, it seems I wasn't the only one to experience lightning-fast (by unreg. SAL standards) shipment from AmiAmi, others also had theirs arrive in just 10 days or less.

Isn't she adorable?

I can't wait for the rest of the gang to become reality so they can join Madoka on my desk. Her show is a good watch, you gotta see it when you have time.
