Actually, I have seen this Petit back then on February, but I did not know the name of the character she based on, and then I forgot to search about her since there was so many post-WonFes Nendoroid news back then. Well, Jeff Teo posted a pic of her again in our Facebook page and it reminded me to dig some info about her.

Well, it turns out that she is actually Nendoroid Petit Kanon from an upcoming PSP game PhotoKano. The Petit would be bundled with the first release of the game, priced at around 7140 Yen, and scheduled for late September release.

What do you think, Nendonesian? ^^

Nendonesia's 1st Anniversary greeting by Vocaloid Nendoroid ^^

It has been a year since our first post in Nendonesia and so much things have been accomplished since then. We have posted up several hundreds of news and twenty-some reviews to the blog so far. We have also expanded Nendonesia into other (social) media, such as Facebook, Twitter, Forum, Flickr group, DeviantART group, and Tumblr. An official Nendonesia T-Shirt has also been distributed a few months ago, with part of the sales being donated to aid Japan’s relief effort.

UPDATE: Anniversary greeting pic by CinnamonFox has been added. Thanks!

GSC’s trip to attend JAPAN EXPO at France results in yet another new Petit set, which came from a slice-of-life themed manga/anime titled La Croisée dans un labyrinthe étranger (a.k.a Ikoku Meiro no Croisée). Nendoroid Petit Yune, Claude Claudel, and Alice Blanche are being diplayed in the exhibition.

I don’t know whether GSC is doing it on purpose or not, but the series itself has a French culture theme. The story follows a girl named Yune who ends up alone in the lower-class neighborhoods of Paris in the last half of the 19th century. She ends up working at a shopping district with a boy named Claude. The anime adaptation is scheduled for broadcast on July 3.

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian?

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Support version will be Sold at LA ANIME EXPO

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Support version

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Support version

Well, you read the title – Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Support version will be put on sale at Mikunopolis 2011 booth at the Los Angeles ANIME EXPO. Although the official pricing has not been revealed yet, they did mention that for every sale of the figure, 1000 Yen will be donated to Japanese Red Cross to aid the relief efforts in Eastern Japan.

In a side note, I thought GSC mentioned that charity products will be a made-to-order basis, but now we are seeing Miku to be sold out of the web pre-orders. Inconsistency? Well, in any case, I hope GSC will expand the charity product sales outside their own web pre-order. ^^

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian?

(Thanks for the news tip, Otaku00! ^^)
