New Preorders 33

posted in: New Preorders | 5

po33-header

Hi everyone, after some time passed since the last New Preorder post, now it’s part 33. In the meantime I placed 3 more figure orders. I remember the times where I always had like 5 new preorders in every preorder post, but with my stronger focus on Dollfie Dream, the rising costs for figures and limited room I can’t preorder so many figures at once anymore.
 

Ordered Items

 

Kantai Collection -Kan Colle- Takao Light Armament Ver.

I’m a big Takao fan, she is so alluring and has a friendly voice. Max Factory made a 1/8 scaled figure, she is wearing her beautiful uniform and her lovely curves were nicely adapted, too. I always wished for really bold figures of the Kancolle characters, you can partially blame all the Pixiv artists for all the great ecchi fanart, but the figures are mainly modest. I ordered the light version, since the ship part is not really as important for me, as the character herself.

Love Live! School Idol Festival – Umi Sonoda

At the risk of repeating myself, I don’t count Umi as my favorite among the Love Live! girls, but fortunately she is not Maki ahahaha. I adore most of ALTER’s “School Idol Festival” figures, they are all so precious and elaborately made. Especially this Umi is a wonderful example of the lineup, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw her for the first time, Umi is so cute in that outfit, also her sweet pose and expression make her extremely adorable for me.

Original Character – Succubus-san 

Like my previously reviewed Chitose, Succubus-san also combines a sweet and romantic style with ero figure qualities. The attractive figure has strong colors and a sexy body with a strong level of chubbyness. Her face is so cute and enchanting ♡. In stark contrast her outfit is a “dream” of latex and leather, the figure is completely castoffable.

Interesting figures

 
Now we take a look at the figures that were recently listed in the shops. I’ve sorted them by release date, among the listed items are a few things I totally would like to have, it’s really unfortunate when more than one nice figure is scheduled to be released in the same month.
 

Shining Wind – Touka

I have the impression that Orchid Seed is slowly getting behind the times, while other manufacturers increase their quality steadily, Orchid Seed’s figures stay on the same level, of course that does not mean that they make bad figures. This Touka for example has a very interesting atmosphere with her thoughtful pose and the diorama like base she sits on.

manufacturer: Orchid Seed – scale: 1/8 – release: December 2016

 

Persona 4 The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena – Labrys Naked Ver.

This Labrys figure looks really pretty and cool, detailed mechanical parts and a huge weapon are part of her interesting design. Somehow the robot hips actually bother me a little. ques Q also announced another similar looking cyborg girl scheduled for January 2017.

Ribbon Doll Collection – Shin Ikkitousen: Unchou Kanu

Here is a surprisingly artistic and creative adaption of the Kanu character, the unique and detailed pose combined with the womanly body and her really beautiful face make her quite appealing. Unfortunately she apparently will also be released in January .·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·.

Persona 4 The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena – Unit 024

Unit 024 is a cuter version than Labrys, at least I prefer it ;D The sea green hair with ponytail and a more gentle facial expression give her completely different atmosphere. I also prefer the black top. Oh, a January release too, damn that’s quite annoying for me *meh*

Girls und Panzer the Movie – Alice Shimada

Despite her short her appearance in the Girls und Panzer movie, Alice gets a pretty figure, she looks nicely made, with a cute face and the sweet loli dress and she even has a teddy.

manufacturer: Kotobukiya – scale: 1/7 – release: March 2017

 

CHUNITHM – Haruna Mishima

I don’t know her origin, but everything about her shouts adorable. Her mainly white uniform like outfit is very pretty and fancy and there is also this extremely cute face of Haruna.

Infinite Stratos – Laura & Charles Nekomimi Pajama

Yes, this is a great two figure combination, they do both looks enchanting in their cat pajamas. The flustered Laura and the sweet Charles together on a fluffy base. I prefer Charles, but it’s sold as set. The base is bent to have a better perspective when they are displayed.

Peach Girl Selfie – Miho Kunagisa

At least we need one bikini figure in this post. Miho is a dynamic figure with a bubbly expression and bold pink hair. She is scaled 1/5.5 and rather huge figure.

VOCALOID4 Library Stardust

This is a marvelously nice looking figure, I love her expressive face with the orange eyes, she has a slightly evil and mysterious aura, she is sitting on a nice base in a quite charming pose.
I find her extremely enchanting actually. Maybe I will be able to add her sometime.

Yuki Yuuna is a Hero – Mimori Togo

The announcement of this figure was really surprising, I mean I remembered that great anime, but never thought figure manufacturers still gave attention to it. So after Yuuna ALTER will also make a figure of the beautiful Togo. The black hair and her sweet face with the green eyes and also tightly hugging bodysuit with her toes exposed are making the figure gorgeous.

Shinwa Taisen Gilgamesh Knight – Deena Challenger

This cheerful, young, blonde girl is Deena Challenger, I’ve used a close up picture for startes on purpose, she is actually sitting on an elaborately designed bike, but her official pics were far away from good, HobbyJapan should really provide bigger product pictures for their expensive figures. Deena is dressed in a eccentric slutty outfit, but with such a cute face she comes away with it. The figure is sexy and her bike is stunning.

She is an exclusive figure and with 20.000 Yen she is the most expensive figure of this post.

Hyakka Ryouran – Yagyu Jubei – Final Bride Ver.

After seeing the 2 Hyakka Ryouran – Samurai After OVA, I was reminded that I will always think of Hyakka Ryouran affectionately, not that story was very compelling, but it was the chemistry between the funny and sympathic characters that made it special for me.
ALTER announced a figure of the cute Jubel in the Samurai Bride outfit, it’s a truly stunning design, I like it a lot, unfortunately it’s sold as exclusive figure. On the good side she will be released in a unbusy months considering figure orders. I could still strike.

Soukou Akki Muramasa – Ashikaga Chachamaru – Wedding ver.

Chachamaru has always been overshadowed, by the more popular Sansei Muramasa, but she is also a heroine in that ridiculously violent game. Here Chachamaru is adapted as quite pretty bride with nice blonde hair and wow who gave her that amazingly attractive butt?! (⁄ ⁄^⁄ᗨ⁄^⁄ ⁄).

    ah except kureha all are next year so I guess no need to worries of next year contents of this blog XD Definietly Takao and that succubus:D I also just watch of episode 2 of that samurai after so yeah finally realize where that dress come from lol I wonder if Sen with that black dress also made XD Chachamaru also interesting but she need skirt as optional i guess 😛

    • wieselhead

      The plan was to reduce my figure interest steadily, but the latest figures are too good 🙁
      Yeah, both are nice big girls for f-san ♡ Ah yes there it was shown. The black Senhime figure was released last year, for me the wedding dress looks better 😀
      It’s funny how all the bride related figures are half naked, the manufacturers always add a veil, but no skirts XD

      • Aya

        The classroom won’t be anytime I guess XP , but yeah this blog didn’t turn into a doll blog this year, Like what I think would be since last year 😛
        Ah didn’t realized they already released one last year ahaha without watch the samurai after I wouldn’t think that Senihime lol if just see the picture without description XD
        Half naked only lately i guess, or it’s rather Lingerie for wedding night XP also those to love ru figures of them wearing wedding lingerie

    It is quite sad you don’t have five new pre-orders every time, just think of all the figures that won’t be getting nice photos anymore.

    I’m also a very big fan of a Takao. ;D When I saw the Takao and Atago combo at Wonfes I thought they looked very nice. I’m also quite happy that for once a GSC Kancolle figure doesn’t feel incomplete if you buy the light armament version.

    I also ordered Alter’s Umi, dunno what it is but there was just something magical about her. Very rarely do I fall in love with a figure such as this. Can’t say same the same about Umi herself though. 😛

    You know, I have been paying attention to Orchid Seed figures for the entirety of my collecting years but I never actually bought any, not sure why. Seeing Touka seems like a blast from the past though, I remember when the days when Shining Wind kept getting figures left and right.

    You should order Labrys or her sister, they look so ridiculously good. I still find Soejima has the ratio of robot and girl in robot girl down perfect ever since I first laid eyes to Aigis when I played P3 nearly a decade ago.

    Also get Touhou, Yuuna needs to see pretty photos of her wife!

    I’m also quite interested in ordering bride Chachamaru, not sure I wanna go through a proxy for her though. I could order online and ship to my buddy I suppose as well. If I did I would probably order the version with the marriage registration form, I find it very amusing.

      I don’t think it’s actually sad to have less orders anymore.
      Being limited in the number of figures you can buy makes the hobby more dramatic XD
      Haha cool ^^ Yeah, both seem to be a good pair, but I’m not really happy about Atago figures so far,
      they all miss a certain thing, I haven’t figured out yet. I don’t need the guns, so it’s nice to have the choice.

      Umi looks just awesome in that figure adaption, the anime failed a bit with showing her adorable side, we only saw drill instructor Umi.

      Well, Orchid Seed made some nice figures with and without boobs in the past. Kureha is not their first
      Shining Wind figure. Shining Wind can’t be so bad as the anime reviews imply, I will watch it soon ^^

      I bet the robot girls will look great, maybe I’ll grab one on release.

      I still think about Touhou… to pre order or not 🙁

      It’s a cute bride after all.
      a marriage registration 500 other guys have… ewww XD
