Nendoroid Sharo a.k.a Sherlock Shellingford
One of my most anticipated Nendoroid for this year, Nendoroid Sharo (Sherlock Shellingford) from Tantei Opera Milky Holmes has just been released as of today. Yep, she is included in the PSP game bundle of the same title with a steep price tag of 10290 Yen. Some photos of the cute detective have surfaced in some Japanese forums, so you just have to complete your pre-order payment and wait for her to be shipped. ^^

Black Rock Shooter DVD + Bluray Bundle with Nendoroid Petit BRS Set
Mikatan has just posted a glimpse of packaging photos from the upcoming Black Rock Shooter Blu-ray + DVD Bundle which will also include Nendoroid Petit Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master as a bonus. The Petit set itself is not entirely new, because Mikatan has posted it a few months ago. See her blog post here for a galore of drooling bonus included in the bundle. ^^

Nendoroid Petit Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master (left: fake)
Looks like some Chinese manufacturers have released bootleg (fake) version of the upcoming Nendoroid Petit Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master, and GSC has posted an article featuring the differences between the two releases to prevent their customer from purchasing counterfeit products. Well, the glossy faces and awful sculpting are some major characteristics of bootleg Nendoroid, so you might want to take note of it when purchasing these two cute Petits (with bundle!). ^^

Nendoroid Petit Kuroi Mato and Takanashi Yomi
I guess you have already predicted that these two girls will be Nendo-fied, right? Although I do prefer regular-sized Nendoroid, but both Nendoroid Petit Kuroi Mato and Nendoroid Petit Takanashi Yomi from Black Rock Shooter are still as cute in Petit size, nevertheless. ^^
No further info regarding the availability nor the pricing info, but I am pretty sure there are a lot of you aiming for these two cute Petits (yes, including me), right, Nendonesian? ^^
Nendoroid Lynette Bishop from Strike Witches
Nendoroid Lynette Bishop has been under the shadow for a while, but now you got a chance to see her pose up in action. As with the other Nendoroid from Strike Witches series, she also has a striker (or launcher?) unit on her legs. The nekomimi is a nice addition too, as well as the sniper/gun as her accessories. Sadly, there are still no info on her release date and pricing yet, but we will make sure to let you know when we get more info. ^^
Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi and Kyon - both are Disappearance version
The first Nendoroid to arrive on Mikatan’s desk -after her recent tour to China- is a brand new, never-seen-before Nendoroid Kyon (Disappearance version). Well, it looks like there are a lot of fans (particularly females) requested for Kyon to be made into Nendoroid. Fortunately, GSC granted those requests and he will be up for pre-order starting tomorrow. Two expressions, a removable scarf, two bookmarks, and a couple of body parts can be seen from Mikatan’s photos in her blog post.
Well, are you up for Kyon to accompany your Haruhi and Yuki, Nendonesian? Me? Personally, I prefer the mangaka pair of Bakuman though. ^^;

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition
I guess it has been expected that there would be some delayed releases because of the large variety of Nendoroid that due in this month. Well, I did not think THIS PARTICULAR NENDOROID would be delayed though. ^^;
As you can read in the title, yep, the release date of Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition has been officially delayed to January 2011 – together with Nendoroid Mickey Mouse, while Nendoroid Dead Master and Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku are scheduled to be released on December 22 (from December 21 and December 24, respectively).
Miku HMO’s delayed release is really disappointing, at least for me personally. Well, I hope that her QC would be better with this delay though. What do you think about it Nendonesian? T_______T
Note: Complete release date for December 2010 can be seen on this page

Nendoroid Saiko and Shujin
Another Takeshi Obata’s series has been made into Nendoroid. This time, it’s Nendoroid Saiko (Mashiro Moritaka) and Nendoroid Shujin (Takagi Akito) from Bakuman. The details are still pretty scarce at the moment, but both of them have already had a pricing. Nendoroid Saiko will be priced at 3800 Yen, while Nendoroid Shujin’s price tag is 3500 Yen. They will also carry three face plates and some accessories – would it be some kind of room/environment and stuff for creating manga? In any case, stay tuned for more updates on them later. ^^
(I hope they will also make both Miho and Kaya into Nendoroid too … ^^;)
UPDATE: Both Nendoroid Saiko and Nendoroid Shujin is scheduled for April 2011 release!

Nendonesia Nendoroid family
Note: Thanks to KairiZero, Xinq’G, and iBlaze, for providing the photos for our first gathering’s report ^^
December 12, 2010 would be marked as a special day for Nendonesian, especially who lives in Surabaya as we held our first ever Nendonesia gathering at Grand City Mall, Surabaya. We are really proud to be able to hold our first gathering six months after the birth of Nendonesia back then in July 4, 2010 (it was initially named Animaster Talks Nendoroid). (≧∇≦)/
Anyway, before we go through the gallery of our gathering photos, I would like to tell you a few stuff regarding Nendonesia’s site statistics. Let’s go past the break, Nendonesian! ^^
UPDATE: Fixed the broken image links
Atmosphere of the expo at noon
Before I begin today’s report on the 2nd day of Capsule Corp: Toy Expo 2010, I want to thank KairiZero for providing the photos to be included in this post. m(_ _)m <(thanks a lot, KairiZero!)
Well, if I were to say three words to summarize the whole event for today, then it would be “crowded“, “cosplay“, and “venomous“. Yep, today is surely packed with cosplayers, customers, and hobbyists from Surabaya and other cities, not counting the drooling and venomous Nendoroid available in the shops. OK, without further ado, let’s see today’s expo in … photos, after the break.
UPDATE: The broken links in images have been fixed.
