Wow! The box for Nendoroid Snow Miku: Strawberry White Kimono version looks very premium-ish!
Yep, Mikatan has just posted her (p)review of this upcoming Nendoroid which is scheduled to be released in a few days, starting from the Snow Sapporo Festival on February 9th and then Winter WonFes 2013 on February 10th.
Nothing new about the parts and accessories as they have been revealed many weeks ago, but it will not hurt to take another glance at this lovely Nendoroid in Mikatan’s blog post below.

Rejoice Kud Wafter Little Busters and Noumi fans! GSC has just announced that Nendoroid Kudryavka Noumi: Winter Clothes version will be re-released along with the summer version, which was announced previously.
Kudo-chan is joining the Nendoroids! Wafu~!!
From the PC game “Little Busters! Ecstasy” comes a Nendoroid of the adorable Kudryavka Noumi!Kudo comes with three expressions – a smiling face, a worried face and of course her famous ‘wafu!’ face, along with extra hands to recreate the full ‘wafu!’ pose! She also comes with dog ears and a tail, a Frisbee and even her pet dog Belka – a set of extras that willl let you create all sorts of adorable scenes for the adorable Kudryavka!

What do you think about it, Nendonesian? Did you miss the first release? XD

With 6 Nendoroids and 4 Petites scheduled for this month’s release, that numbers seem pale in comparison with recent months’ releases.
That said, I guess the upcoming winter WonFes preparation has taken so much resources off GSC that they even decided to delay some products there – including the much anticipated Nendoroid Iron Man. Hopefully their QC can be improved further by the delay.

Nendoroid More stands have been released just a few weeks ago, and now GSC are adding a new color option to the mix: ORANGE.
More fun ways to display your Nendoroids!
These new clip stands bring Nendoroid fans a brand new way of displaying their favorite characters! The clip can be easily attached to the frame of your cabinet or the edge of your laptop, allowing you to display your Nendoroids in places you never even considered using before!The arm attached to the clip is articulated, allowing you to move it in any direction so that you can place the Nendoroids exactly where you want them! Each stand comes with joints for both Nendoroids and Nendoroid Petites, so you can display any of your favorite characters from either series!
This product was developed by this year’s new employees at Good Smile Company. They have also been running a blog testing the development up until this point, which can be found here: http://ameblo.jp/blog-shinsotsu2012/
Both of these Nendoroid More stands will be priced at 500 Yen each and there will be only 500 pcs available at GSC’s Winter WonFes 2013 booth.

A little note regarding the Nendoroid More is also written in the page. It basically reminds us that the Nendoroid More series is only designed to work with Nendoroids (or Nendoroid Petites) that have a tabbed stand that connects to a hole in the back of the figure, thus it will not support Nendoroids that make use of other stand types.

The Mini Photo Challenge for Nendonesia’s Header and Cover Pics has received plenty of entries despite the short notice. Awesome! XD
As promised, today is the time to announce the five finalists. Here you go:

There is one common issue plaguing the Nendoroid collectors around the world: space. Yep, with an average release rate of about 7 Nendoroids each month, it is obvious that the Nendoroid boxes are piling up fastly and sucking our precious room space.
So how can we solve this problem? Some folks suggested to fold the Nendoroid boxes, but a Japanese collector Kitsune-mimi pushed that idea even further: turn the boxes into an album! W-w-wha!? ( ゚ Д゚)

Pardon me to make this post separately, although she is available for pre-order at the same time with the other two, but I have to do it as I have been waiting for this Nendoroid for years! XD
*ahem* Anyway, yes, Nendoroid Minami Kana from Minami-ke is finally announced!
The troublemaker of the Minami household!
The 4th season of the Minamike anime is now airing, and the manga is still being serialized and is just as popular as ever! The Nendoroid series of Minamike is also getting bigger, as Kana Minami, the long awaited troublemaker of the Minami household, is also coming to join the Nendoroid family!She is wearing her school uniform and also includes a school bag, allowing you to display her on her way to school. She also comes with three different expressions – her standard triumphant expression, a smiling expression and even the realistic expression she sometimes shows in the series!
A small kitchen set is also included to help you recreate even more scenes from the series!
The mischevous Kana will be produced by Gift, scheduled for June 2013 and priced at 3800 Yen.

Alongside Kana is Nendoroid Minami Chiaki who is also getting a re-release at the same month, and Nendoroid Minami Haruka who will also be announced shortly.
So … are you getting these Nendoroids from Minami family?
Psst … the sculptor for Nendoroid Minami Kana and Haruka is Yoshio (LAUGH) who, if I am not mistaken, has also made the garage kit of Nendoroid Ayanami Rei. Will we also see her soon? XD

Mahou Tsukai no Yoru‘s Nendoroid Alice Kuonji is the third Nendoroid with the name ‘Alice’ that is scheduled for release this year, after the one from Touhou Project and Momoiro Taisen Pairon. Will we see more Alices on the upcoming WonFes? XD
The witch of Shiroinu hill, in the town of Misaki.
From the visual novel game ‘Mahoutsukai no Yoru’ comes a Nendoroid of the young witch that lives in hiding, Alice Kuonji!She comes with a number of expressions including her standard relaxed expression, an embarrassed expression and a chibi face that comes from the ‘bonus corner’ found in the game. She also comes with sitting parts and a artistic moon stand that she can sit on. Her little blue bird familiar, ‘Robin’, is also included along with the ‘Diddle Diddle’ bell. Be sure to display her together with the previously released Aoko Aozaki and recreate your favorite scenes from the game!
Previously, I mistakenly mention that Alice will only bring two expressions, but it has been proved otherwise, as pointed by a reader. Sorry about that! XD
Anyway, Nendoroid Alice Kuonji is scheduled for June 2013 release and priced at 3800 Yen.

We have already covered a bit regarding the PC game Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai (A good librarian like a good shepherd) made by AUGUST half a year ago. Fast-forward to today and the game, along with its limited bundle has been released to the stores since January 25th. Yes, the limited edition of the PC game will include a pair of Nendoroid Petites: Sakuraba Tamamo and Shirasaki Tsugumi.
As a Nendoroid fan, I guess it is obvious that I am interested to see how the mass-production version of the Petites looks like. Here are some photos of them, posted by a Japanese collector who have just received the game package.
