Nendoroid Inui Sana from Mashiroiro Symphony has just been displayed last week, sans the usual preview by Mikatan, but her pre-order has already begun today.

Here is a description from her official page:

As usual, the monthly hobby magazine provides us with fresh info for upcoming (and sometimes unannounced) Nendoroid. First, the adorable waitress from WORKING!! will be finally available in normal-sized Nendoroid form. Yes, Max Factory‘s Nendoroid Taneshima Popura will bring along three expressions, a menu book, two glasses of water with tray, as well as a small stool for her to stand. She is scheduled for March 2012 release, with no pricing info announced yet. I guess Popura-chan will be up on Mikatan’s blog to be previewed soon. ^^

Let’s put Nendoroid Sanada Yukimura aside, since we have already known all about him. Well, Nendoroid Jack Frost from Persona / Shin Megami Tensei series popped up again. A new sitting pose is displayed there, and it is mentioned that it will be available on February 2012 – that means a preview of the Max Factory-bound Nendoroid is going to be posted shortly. ^^

XD Anyway, the whole set of charms are included in the limited edition of Nendoroid Generation, priced at 10480 Yen and scheduled to be released on February 23, 2012.

Haqua: Sorry for forcing my way into your January pre-order list ...

After getting a quick preview at Max Factory‘s figma blog yesterday, Nendoroid Haqua from The World God Only Knows is officially available for pre-order starting today. Here is the description from her official page:

Elsie’s tsundere classmate and friend!
From the anime series, ‘The World God Only Knows’ comes a Nendoroid of the beautiful and smart, albeit somewhat stubborn demon – Haqua!

She comes with three expressions – a standard expression, an upset expression and a surprised expression. She also comes with the scythe that proves she graduated from demon school with the best grades, her purple raiment around her neck and of course a jar to seal away the runaway spirits!

Be sure to display her with Nendoroid Elsie and recreate your favorite scenes from the series!

In case you haven’t known yet: she will be available on late January 2012, priced at 3800 Yen.

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? For you who are going to pre-order this adorable tsundere demon, please raise your hand. (o///o)/

Solution for Nendoroid Hinagiku’s Face Plate Issue?

Face-plate-attaching problem on Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku

Face-plate-attaching problem on Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku

It seems that many customers who purchased Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku are complaining about difficulty on attaching/detaching the face plate off Hinagiku’s head. Yukiwo Ageta has just proposed a solution which might be able to solve that issue. Here is the translated tweet of Ageta-san:

If you buy from daisy Nendoroid, many voices will be asked to do difficult and tight face recombination. Because I like a harder material itself. Please try and hand-painted cream and toothpick grooves to receive portions of the ribs of the face. Much easier.

Yeah, I know that the translation is kinda messy, but I think I can get the general idea. Basically we simply need to smear some kind of hand lotion to a toothpick and put it on the plug holes at Hinagiku’s head, so that the face plate could slide into the head easily.

I have not received my ordered Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku yet, so I cannot confirm that Ageta-san’s solution would work. For you who have played with Hinagiku and got this problem, well, now you know how to fix it. ^^

Nendoroid Hinagiku Release Pushed Back, Tomoe Got Release Date

It seems like Good Smile Company Max Factory are having difficulties to meet the deadline for their Hayate no Gotoku Nendoroid releases. Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku is their first Nendoroid to get her release delayed and I guess it will initiate a domino effect for Hayate and Nagi as well – hopefully it would not happen. Initially, Hinagiku-chan is scheduled to release on late November and now pushed back to December. ^^;

Meanwhile, Nendoroid Tomoe from FREEing will be released in-schedule as GSC has just posted a release date for her: November 15. Yes, that’s about a week from today so you’ll better prepare to complete your pre-order payment to have your latest Queen’s Blades Nendoroid ship as soon as possible. ^^
