It appears that this FigurArts Nagisa figurine may also come with an AR Card:

Got my Vol 4. Interesting that it comes with a kid like map (as if it was draw by a kid) of Akibastar, with a more detailed part of Akiba Island (where is the AKB0048 theater) and Akiba Fashion Town.
On the character profiles: Takamina basic data: Real Name: 有沢栞 (Arisawa Shiori?) Birthday: 01/08 Age: 21 years old Height: 148.5cm Home Planet: 宿務星 (セブスター Sebustar) Sae basic data: Real Name: 朝宮陽子 (Asamiya? Youko) Birthday: 12/20 Age: 16 years old Height: 166.5cm Home Planet: 尾久玉星 (オクタマスター Okutamastar) Makoto is from 奈仁波星 (ナニワスター Naniwastar), while Kanata is same as Sonata 沙原星 (サハラスター Saharastar) I should get the vol 1-4 booklets scanned around the middle of next week.

I doubt that anyone will care, but at the latest Tokyo Dome concert (that was released on DVD a few days ago) there's a MC about AKB0048 as well. They have a small animated sequence in which most of the idols "look forward" to the Tokyodome event and they tried hooking up Karen to some device so that her movements will be mimicked by an animated Nagisa on screen behind her... which didn't really work.

Them vids must be on Youku somewhere.
When I first found this pic (it was part of a bunch of recent magazine scans), it screamed COSPLAY on it because the real-life Mariko had the glasses with her.

And Acchan's real name? Katagiri Atsuko. She is as close as she gets to the real Acchan down to the name

EDIT: Looking around more, it does seems to be indeed a rumor that got out of hand. On the Japanese wikipedia they list it but saying on that side that a source is needed. On the japanimation website they used to have it there (as it's possible to see through google's cache for it), but now they took that part down.

Thank goodness I was done with my coffee an hour ago, otherwise I would've spat the screen upon seeing that while drinking. So they're cousins? Now if we could find the source, then this will confirm Tsubasa's very close connection with Acchan, but unfortunately, we couldn't at this moment. Anyway, the website had been changed in preparation for the Next Stage. Production is underway, peeps. https://twitter.com/AKB0048_ura/stat...81154065309696 https://twitter.com/AKB0048_ura/stat...71322243428352

^^ Am I the only one to notice Chieri and Nagisa's legs being a bit... stretched?
Also, Seeing the mechas makes me wonder if they'll stop re-using animations from the battles. The first time I saw the mecha v mecha action (episode 2) I was like O.O Then it was re-used in the last chapter and I was like meh. IT was still a great shot, fighter v fighter (with mechas) but re-using animations? big no on my part. Arty

I hope they don't recycle this time, but with Tom telling us it would be "epic", he could be saying we'll be seeing better furballs than the last.
And (a bit off-topic) something I came across: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/inte...-animated-show What?

It's funny because I find the whole concept of mechas disturbingly bad, but I somehow enjoyed seeing AKB do this. Maybe I should pick up Evangelion or Macross...
Anywho. I'm all for an endor type battle. Screw the micsabers, ME WANT SPACE WAR Arty
