Nendoroid Annelotte: Dark Knight version
GSC has just updated their Nendoroid listing with the upcoming limited-exclusive Nendoroid Annelotte: Dark Knight version from Queen’s Blade Rebellion.
Here is the official description:
The alternate, darker version of Annelotte!
From the anime series ‘Queen’s Blade Rebellion’ comes a Nendoroid of the Knight Princess and leader of the Rebel Army, Annelotte – this time in a much darker form that before!
See the official pics after the break. ^^
Nendoroid Takatsuki Ichika (uncolored prototype)
There will be a live broadcast titled Wonderful Hobby Live News Watch today at GSC x Tetsujin Cafe, featuring some new figures as well as news recap for this week. The details surrounding this broadcast have been posted in GSC x Tetsujin Cafe website, and it does mention a few interesting tidbits.
Aside from Nendoroid Super Sonico: Tiger Hoodie version, the post also mentioned about Nendoroid Takatsuki Ichika from Ano Natsu de Matteru. I guess the prototype should be fully colored by now, and perhaps she might even get a preview treatment by Mikatan today! XD
In any case, you can watch the live broadcast here: http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv93869976, starting at 18:00 (GMT+7).
Nendoroid Super Sonico: Tiger Hoodie version
I know that we have already seen most of her pose previously, but I guess it won’t hurt to take another look at the official pics, right?
Yep, GSC has just updated the official page of Nendoroid Super Sonico: Tiger Hoodie version with a slew of new photos, which you can see after the break. ^^
Nendoroid Annelotte: Demon Knight version
Just after we saw the 2P version of Nendoroid Annelotte (Queen’s Blade Rebellion), dubbed as Nendoroid Annelotte: Dark Knight version, we got treated to a few new pics and some information regarding this Nendoroid, courtesy of Hobby Japan. Nice!
The promotional banner
The pic above popped up on Happy Kuji website, revealing slightly further information about Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Family Mart version (usually called as Famima Miku). First info is regarding her release schedule: August 2012, and the second one is her raffle price: 800 Yen. One of her accessories is also revealed here: her hand holding a bag of nuggets (or cakes, or some other kind of food).
What is a raffle, you ask? Well, a raffle is a competition in which people obtain numbered tickets, each ticket having the chance of winning a prize. At a set time, the winners are drawn from a container holding a copy of every number. The drawn tickets are checked against a collection of prizes with numbers attached to them, and the holder of the ticket wins the prize. (Wikipedia) Yes, you might call it a lottery. XD

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? ^^
Note: I could guess that some of you will comment like this: “No more Miku please” or “Please do other character” or something like that. XD

Nendoroid Petit x Mini 4WD display
Note: This news is a week old, but I guess it is better to post it late rather than never, right? XD
In order to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Tamiya’s 4WD, GSC has teamed up with Tamiya and Dengeki Hobby Magazine to create a special joint product known as Nendoroid Petit x Mini 4WD. The collaboration project was announced at 51st Shizuoka Hobby Show (May 17th – 18th).
The announced line-ups are:
Yep, as you can see in the pic above, the announced Nendoroid Petits will be riding their own special mini 4WD as mentioned in the list.
Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? ^^
The magazine scan
After Nendoroid Annelotte (Queen’s Blade Rebellion) went for pre-order last month, the usual “how will the 2P version look like?” thought crossed on my mind.
Thankfully, I don’t have to wait long, as Nendoroid Annelotte: Dark Knight version made her debut in this month’s Dengeki Hobby Magazine. Interestingly, she does not bear the 2P version remarks that have been the case with the previous alternative versions of Nendoroid from Queen’s Blade. XD
*ahem* I have to say that she looks really gorgeous with those red eyes, elven’s ears, and a glittering golden equipments. I’m totally sold, FREEing, good job! ^^
Anyway, it seems that she will be available as a limited and exclusive product, as usual, with a price of 3500 Yen. The evil-looking lady will be released sometimes this year.
Meanwhile, Phat Company‘s Nendoroid Gertrud Barkhorn from Strike Witches series gets another highlight in the magazine scan. This time, she brings along her Striker unit and shares a few new poses with us.
(Un)surprisingly, she is still uncolored, eventhough it is already more than a year since the first time we saw her. At least she got a release schedule, albeit a little vague: Autumn 2012. XD
Note: Oh, and while we’re at it, how are our Disgaea duo (Flonne and Etna) doing there, Phat-san? Hopefully you don’t plan to cancel abandon forget them, because some of us have been patiently waiting since you showed them to us last year. XD
Well then, what do you think about it, Nendonesian? ^^
(Thanks for the news tip, Jeff Teo!)
English version of the website
When Mikatan announced about Nendoroid Official Site‘s revamp, she also mentioned that the English version of the website would be launched soon. Well, apparently, the time is now, as the English website has been launched today.
Curious to see what’s new there? Kindly go directly to the website and tell us how you think about it in the comment, okay? XD
Nendoroid Flandre Scarlet and Izayoi Sakuya
