Yep, we are getting near to the release of Nendoroid Black Rock Shooter’s rival: Nendoroid Dead Master, which is scheduled for bloody December release. GSC president Takanori Aki managed to take the first sample of this cute scythe-wielder and shared a photo of the box content on his Tweet just now. Four face plates, two hair sets, a scythe, a pair of wings, hands, and palms, plus a special Dead Master-themed stand base. Looks pretty minimalistic compared to the massive amount of parts and accessories inside Nendoroid BRS packaging. ^^;

I bet most of you are waiting for this cutie, aren’t you, Nendonesian? ^^

It seems like FREEing has another Nendoroid up in their sleeves. Beside making Nendoroid of Queen’s Blade, apparently they are also developing Nendoroid from Hyakka Ryoran series, with Nendoroid Yagyu Jubei as their first attempt. There is still no further info about her availability yet, except a vague release schedule – 2011. I guess her release date would be mid 2011 (around June – August). ^^

(Thanks to Singer_Yuna of nendoroid.es for the news tip ^^)
