Yui Hirasawa’s Beginner Guitar and Akiyama Mio’s Beginner Bass
K-ON! Let’s start a band (includes sheet music of the songs)
Electric fan in K-ON
Cellphones of the K-ON Characters
Tuners
Mugi’s keyboard
Ritsu’s drums
Azu-nyan’s cup
Ritsu's pen and bag
Mio's headphones
etc.

Spoiler for for space. THIS IS MADNESS! NO! THIS! IS! MERCHANDISE!:

I believe this clearly explains why Lucky*Star with Konata as a "mascot" has been left in limbo. The art style and the ability to saturate the screen with product make these girls absolutely perfect for product placement.

(at least until the next 4-koma band of characters comes along.... such fickleness in the industry)

Some are rather farfetched or simple though. I could easily pick a simple pen, laptop, pitcher, rice cooker, yacht and a DAMN WATERMELON with the same model and colour and say it's the same as the one from K-On.

bhl88 · 2009-11-14, 03:46

Yeah I'd agree with that XD

You know, this is why Japan has a more thriving tourism sector than the US.

According to the JT news: the otaku tourism sector hasn't decreased (It's still as booked as ever).

What company (or companies) is (or are) making the above figures?

Vexx · 2009-11-22, 16:47

Those look like "garage kits" (which are often much better than mass produced) -- but sometimes those get picked up by the manufacturers. I could see some of the more spendy figure makers grabbing these for production.

Still waiting for a Ritsu+drums and a Mugi+keyboard .... eh?

Mckendrick · 2009-11-23, 00:31

Alter's Mio has been pushed back to Jan release?! ;_;

As long as Yui still comes in Dec, all will be good.

Vexx · 2009-11-23, 01:20

Hmmm... I'd rather it be late and them get it right

(yeah, I have both Mio and Yui on order) Still hoping they'll pump out the other three (Mugi, Ritsu, and Azunyan).

Mckendrick · 2009-11-23, 02:11

Yeah your right. But i still want my Yui!! And an Azunyan is a must!
