Suzu from Nagasarete Airantou made by Kotobukiya

suzu-kotobukiya-header-named

When already running out of space you shouldn’t order old figures I would say XD

While I was searching for a cover illustration of the Nagasarete Airentou anime, a picture of a cute figure appeared and I was enchanted by her charming appearance and I wanted to see more of her. In the end I bought her on ebay, after I’ve asked the seller to make her cheaper, my price was quite bold, but luckily he accepted it, I wonder if he would have sold her for even less ;)

Nymph – Sorano Otoshimono f by Kotobukiya

Nymph

Today I want to show you a new figure review about one of my latest purchased figures, it is Kotobukiya’s cute little Angeloid Nymph, her origin is the popular anime Sora no Otoshimono. Kotobukiya released this Nymph under their 4 Leaves label, this figure is scaled 1/6 and has a sitting height of around 12 cm, her release date was at the end of july 2011. She is the first 1/6 scaled figure in my collection and I was eagerly waiting for the day of her release.

This Nymph figure has a few nice features like a soft cushion base, an castoffable cape and also the big collar around her neck can be taken of, as well as her pretty semi transparent blue wings.

Nymph comes in a rather place saving box, nevertheless I had to pay 2980 Yen for the EMS shipping, regarding her 1/6 scale I think its a fair price. In the past shipping costs appeared less expensive, or maybe I just had this impression, because I’ve  bought only a few figure in the past. Nymph was wrapped up in many layers of foil so unpacking took a few minutes :D

WonFes 2011 or better said Wonder Festival is always a nice event.This winter Wonfes of 2011 took place on  February 6, 2011 at the  Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall and was opened from 10:00 to 17:00.

Well I always liked the Wonfes events a lot, there are always are many new, nice and pretty figures and other figure collecting hobby related stuff and of course many nice garagekits.

A big wish of mine is to travel there one day in the future and explore all the booth there. Continue reading »

I have days when I think “Arghh where should I put all these figures” and on other days I think “Oh theres enough space for a few more figures” ^^

Takamachi Nanoha – everyday wear by Kotobukiya

Hi Mina san, today I will write about the cute Takamachi Nanoha – everyday wear version which arrived last week. As this figure was announced my reaction was quite intense I was like “AHH, HOW CUTE!” “KAWAII!” “DO WANT!” in summary I totally freaked out in this moment XD
Lately cute figures really became my weakness, you could say that they are my kryptonite.
After I regained my consciousness I waited well-behaved for the opening of the preorders.
Without giving it a second thought I just ordered my Nanoha figure. I haven’t bought any figures of Nanoha so far, but I found this casual cloth version of her pretty appealing.

Her Origin is Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha The Movie 1st the latest project of the Continue reading »
