Why does everything have to be about lottery prizes and thus limited to Japan?

Hmm...I don't read japanese, but seems too much soon to speak about that kind of distribution.
However, in every case, there're two ways to find the "limited" items:

tokyo hunter
celga/yahoo japan

[Revan21]

The dresses will probably be painted like this

More previews here

That's why they have A, B, C next to the figures. Those are their categories for the prizes

Best CG artbook, EVER! Now all I need is the previous Rebels edition xD

[Bonzo]

Hmm...I see.
However, figures of 25 cm. considering the size, the price will be more of 6000 yen on yahoo when the time will come.
In that auction site, to find limited, exclusive/prize items is easy.

Like the knightmare Galahad, a exclusive model for a postcard draw of a code geass artbook.

You can buy it easily there:

Thanks for the info.

[Bonzo]

Ahh...what a idiot, I forgot Bandai planned another code geass kmf after the listed names.

The Lancelot club.

[bladeofdarkness]

what ?
they are going to add a machine that isn't even IN the show proper before completing the show roster ?
i mean, i know they added the gekka prototype arm to the limited toudo gekka, but a completely new model that wasn't even in the show proper ?
how about releasing the portman, and the chinese and EU type mass production models first, and only THEN going for the models that aren't really in the show

[Bonzo]

Lancelot club is more simple, just take a offshoot lancelot mark.1, change the head, colors and...it's done.

Not just the arm, inside the moonlight gekka there was a kit to change arms, head, hands and weapons for to mute a blue damashii jikisan to Rai's gekka of lost colors.
Then, why not for the lancelot club? the videogame lost color had a good success in japan, after all they "spared" Nonette's life just for don't upset the fans.

About the chinese "drink-machine" kmf and the UNF hummel, they already said no.

Does anybody know when this item is out because want to add it my my collection, that's all. Thanks for any ino you can provide.

[Bonzo]

I made a check, but no news about it, a preorder, a price...nope.

Often a lot of time is necessary from the prototype expo to the commercial item.

[Bonzo]

Like I said, on yahoo japan some seller started to put preorder for the lottery item.

28000 yen for the stock

12000 for one of wedding figure.

Melody Cards

Just got these the other day. I believe these were posted about some time ago. I got lazy, but there's pictures on the reverse sides as well that goes on to show Orange, Euphie, Anya, and Xingke.

Overview:


Wrappers:


Cards:

[Bonzo]

Now, there's a preorder for a little accessory compatible with some robot spirits model.

wings set for black knight kmf, akatsuki, jikisan, zangetsu...the wings can be closed like the shen-hu model.
More realistic and a spare of space inside a display cabinet.

I finded some news, that doll will out in 2010, but nothing about month or day.

For the rest, is a semi-deformed doll of Kallen big more or less like a figma 13 cm, together there's a SD version of the guren.

If you disassemble the little guren, put the parts on the doll to make the armour, like saint seiya.

In my opinion I don't know, a nice and bizarre experiment, but....

[Bonzo]

Well, the pre-order for C.C and Kallen in bride version are a reality.

For the rest, the china piracy made a good favour to the collector with few money, I'll post the photos tonight.

REALLY ?
Where, when, how ?
I definitely want my Kallen bride. And I might even order C.C. as well. But Kallen is a MUST HAVE.

[Bonzo]

Here the news, about 2 years ago, Banpresto made a big C.C statue, a "Ichiban Kuji Premium", the medium prize is about 100€ now, because out of stock.

Well, the chinese, like all the other rare PVC statues, made a copy of that item, I waited to receive a specimen:




Well, at last they copied everything, the box, accessories, the pedestal...there're just two differences able to differentiate, the original one from this copy:

1)the green hair have a different translucent tonality
2)the gold in the belt is less "shiny"

For the rest, same details, good PVC quality and a faultless colorization.

And above all, you can buy it not for 100€ like the original, but for 15$, repeat, 15$.

I don't like to publicize the illegal imitations, but when the original take a unjustified price...

Here you go:

Yahoo japan is only for japanese people, but there's groups buy them for the foreign people like me and you:

tokyohunter
celga

The same for the galahad, a limited item for a extraction lottery connected with a artbook:

http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b107438513

There're a lot of galahad on yahoo japan.
