Nendoroid Renne, compared with her Petit version

The last time we saw this Nendoroid was at the last Winter WonFes, where she was still merely nothing but a design. Fast forward to today and we have got photos of her in full-color nonetheless.

Yep, Falcom, the team behind Eiyuu Densetsu (Legend of Heroes) series has posted two pics of Nendoroid Renne (Eiyuu Densetsu: Sora no Kiseki).

Holding her precious black rabbit doll

Aside from the scythe, she will also bring along her stuffed black rabbit doll, as expected by the fans of the series. XD

I guess her official announcement will be made soon enough in order to slide into the winter release schedule.

Well, what do you think about this Nendoroid? ^^

(Thanks for the news tip, CrossForte!)

Nendoroid Spider-Man: Hero’s Edition is Available for Pre-Order

Jul11 by animaster

Nendoroid Spider-Man: Hero’s Edition

I just watched The Amazing Spider-Man yesterday, and (IMHO) while it is not as amazing as The Avengers, the movie is still amazing compared to the previous Spider-Man movie series! XD

Anyway, Nendoroid Spider-Man: Hero’s Edition, which has been previewed last week, is now available for pre-order. Here is his official description:

The web-slinging hero is joining the Nendoroid universe!
The world-famous Spider-Man is joining the Nendoroids as a fully posable figure wearing his newly designed outfit from ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’! His entire outfit has both the spiderweb texture and appearance that fans have come to love.

Spider-Man also comes with a few optional extras, such as parts to display him shooting his web as well as a suction cup that attaches to the support prop for even more poses. He also comes with a special dioramic pedestal that allows you to display him swinging above the city, watching over the citizens of New York!

He is priced at 3800 Yen and scheduled for November release.

Are you interested to grab one of this super-deformed version of Spidey, Nendonesian?

Floating Figure Stand: Looks Awesome as Nendoroid’s Display Stand Base

Nendoroid Haqua is standing on top of a floating base

Here is a nice alternative as a display stand base for your Nendoroid: Raputer (Rapyuta), a floating plate intended as a figure stand. What’s more, the plate can also be rotated in mid-air! How cool is that? XD

The floating stand base uses magnetic force and electricity to do the “magic“, and it actually consists of two parts: the fluffy plate as the figure stand and a ground base with the magnet and AC adapter.

Nendoroid Ricotta Elmar is Previewed by Mikatan

Jul9 by animaster

Nendoroid Ricotta Elmar

Although Nendoroid Ricotta Elmar didn’t get as much attention compared to the other upcoming Nendoroid, well, at least, GSC is one of DOG DAYS‘ supporters, so I guess it is only natural for them to finish her prototype before the upcoming Summer WonFes. XD

Well, she has finally arrived on Mikatan’s desk to get the usual preview treatment. She will bring along three expressions (happy, determined, and crying), as well as a stack of books and a white flag. She also has her Emblem Arts effect part and four mini cannons to prove that she is also an artillery expert in the battlefield. XD

The cute lady with dog ears will be available for pre-order soon, and you can see her pics over at Mikatan’s blog. ^^

Nendoroid 130: Makise Kurisu

Jul8 by animaster

Nendoroid Makise Kurisu

I guess a lot of you have already familiar with Makise Kurisu, the heroine of popular sci-fi visual novel and anime Steins;Gate. I have already posted a brief description of her on my review of Nendoroid Makise Kurisu: White Coat version. XD

Nendoroid Makise Kurisu was originally released on January 2011 when the TV animation of Steins;Gate began airing. She was then re-released just in time with Nendoroid Shiina Mayuri‘s release on September 2011.

Well, actually I have already got this Nendoroid last year, around March 2011 (rather than January 2011) because of some shipping delays. Due to my ~~laziness~~ business, I only managed to get the review done just now. XD

Nendoroid Spider-Man: Hero’s Edition is Previewed by Mikatan

Jul7 by animaster

Spidey in action!

So you have watched The Amazing Spider-Man? Well, in case you really like the new movie of Spidey, you might want to see Nendoroid Spider-Man: Hero’s Edition in action, as previewed by Mikatan yesterday.

Yes, this Nendoroid is a fully-posable one, meaning that he will have more joints compared to the normal Nendoroid, that allow him to do more action poses.

Spidey will also come with a special “night street of New York” diorama pedestal, so that you can re-create the scene when he swings above the city using his webs.

See Mikatan’s blog for more pics and get ready for his pre-order to become available by next week.

Anyway, firstly I apologize if this argument annoy you, Spidey fans, but personally, the first impression I got when I saw the fully-colored version of this Nendoroid was not that great: doesn’t Spidey’s head looks like a basketball there? XD

What do you think about this Nendoroid?

Note: I just realized that the “Edition” postfix in Nendoroid product name actually indicates that it is a part of the fully-posable Nendoroid series like Saber and HMO. XD
