With her cute expression, some of you might find her hard to resist. Reimu Hakurei, from the Touhou Project is due out in March of 2010. For your viewing enjoyment, here are a few shots…
Lone Otaku
Nakano Azusa figurine (reservable)
K-On fans will no doubt recognize Azunyan. This Benpresto figurine is now available exclusively from Otacute. Price is about $80US at the time of tis post.
I may have to pass on this version. Keeping my fingers crossed to see what Alter or Good Smile might do. To me there is something about this figure where it does not quite look the same as the character in the series… What do you think?

UpLark Festival Costume Akiyama Mio closer to release!
Back in September I posted an entry where UpLark was working on their version of Akiyama Mio. Looking at those images then, the potential looked very promising. Well, just recently UpLark has updated their blog announcing pricing and release dates for this figurine! With that post they shared some exciting photos. I’m liking the detail guys! Nice work… Here are a few of those shots…
According to the UpLark Blog, pricing is to be around 8,190 Yen. Release date somewhere around February – March 2010.
I’ve not located vendors taking reservations for this one yet but I’ll update this page when I do…

Got a couple of new figures this month… Super pleased with Drossel, she is one cute robot. Yui comes ready to play whether at practice or the final concert of the series. I’ll post some pictures some time when I can.

Yui Hirasawa Mobip Action Figure
Index – GSC – Scale Figurine
From the anime To Aru Majutsu no Index, Mikatan has posted images of Good Smile Companies version of Index.
I think this is a cute version. I like how her face has a soft expression. One can almost be jealous of Sphinx as he gets hugged.
This version of Index comes with changeable arms as well. Here she prays for Tōmas safety… probably safety from Mikoto Misaka…
Index will be available for reservation on November 17th! Keep an eye on your preferred vendor sites.
Deformeit Series Harada Takehito Collection Rider (Reservation)
If you have watched Fate/Stay Night then you are no doubt recognizing this figure as Rider. Rider is now up for reservation, retailing for roughly 5,500 Yen.

Rider - Fate/Stay Night
You can reserve her at Hobby Search today.
Rider appears to standing ready to do her masters bidding. The chain detail is nice. I think I prefer a more dramatic pose for her character though.
Toys Woaks Collection 2.5 To Aru Majutsu no Index (Reservation)
If you are a fan of To Aru Majutsu no Index (A Certain Magical Index) then you may get a kick out of this new collection from Chara-Ana… Toys Woaks Collection 2.5 To Aru Majutsu no Index 12 peice set.
This set is up for reservation now at Hobby Search. Retails for around 7,776 Yen.
Index is cute in this set but I think I prefer a larger scale version.
