Earlier today, I received a letter containing a BRS-themed di:stage Cover Skin from WHL4U committee (GSC x MF). It is given for free as a prize for participating in the photo contest which was held on early July. Since I don’t own a di:stage (yet), I just put it up along with BRS and snapped a few photos of them, which you can see after the break. ^^;

Nendoroid BRS Arrival
I finally got my hand on Nendoroid Black Rock Shooter. Apparently, it also comes with a bonus DVD containing first episode of Black Rock Shooter OVA. Well, I haven’t had time to open it yet, but it should be soon – I guess most of you have already known what’s inside anyway. ^^;

This year’s Animelo, dubbed Animelo Summer Live 2010 -evolution- had Black Rock Shooter as its main theme. Aside from treating the visitors with various BRS-themed products (drinks, figurines, etc), they also had a few Nendoroids exhibited there. Enjoy the photos past the break. ^^
Nendoroid Dead Master Available for Pre-order

Nendoroid Dead Master
So you have gotten your hand the Nendoroid Black Rock Shooter? Now’s the time to pre-order her companion: Nendoroid Dead Master. Yep, some online retailers have started taking pre-order for her today.
Just like BRS, Dead Master also brings along some extra ordinary accessories: death-scythe, Nendoroid-sized skulls, a pair of horns and devil wings. She also has a facial expression based on CHANxCO illustration (BRS has one too)! Really cute!! ^^
She’s slated for (guess, guess) December 2010 release, with a price tag of 3500 Yen. *phew* My poor wallet will be getting holes everywhere on this year’s end. T__T

Black★Puchi Miku

Black★Puchi Miku, originally uploaded by animaster.
Whoa … Miku joins Black★Team!? … or not. She simply mimics what she has just seen on Black★Rock Shooter OVA. ^^;
The idea came up after I watched the OVA and comparing B★RS with her Nendoroid form – which has not been released yet. IMO the blue flame on her left eye is supposed to be “transparent” as seen on the OVA, isn’t it? ^^
