Nendoroid Kyon (Disappearance version) Photos by Mikatan

Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi and Kyon - both are Disappearance version

The first Nendoroid to arrive on Mikatan’s desk -after her recent tour to China- is a brand new, never-seen-before Nendoroid Kyon (Disappearance version). Well, it looks like there are a lot of fans (particularly females) requested for Kyon to be made into Nendoroid. Fortunately, GSC granted those requests and he will be up for pre-order starting tomorrow. Two expressions, a removable scarf, two bookmarks, and a couple of body parts can be seen from Mikatan’s photos in her blog post.

Well, are you up for Kyon to accompany your Haruhi and Yuki, Nendonesian? Me? Personally, I prefer the mangaka pair of Bakuman though. ^^;

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku HMO Delayed, Dead Master and Hinagiku Updated

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition

I guess it has been expected that there would be some delayed releases because of the large variety of Nendoroid that due in this month. Well, I did not think THIS PARTICULAR NENDOROID would be delayed though. ^^;

As you can read in the title, yep, the release date of Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition has been officially delayed to January 2011 – together with Nendoroid Mickey Mouse, while Nendoroid Dead Master and Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku are scheduled to be released on December 22 (from December 21 and December 24, respectively).

Miku HMO’s delayed release is really disappointing, at least for me personally. Well, I hope that her QC would be better with this delay though. What do you think about it Nendonesian? T_______T

Note: Complete release date for December 2010 can be seen on this page

Dec13 by animaster

Nendoroid Saiko and Shujin

Another Takeshi Obata’s series has been made into Nendoroid. This time, it’s Nendoroid Saiko (Mashiro Moritaka) and Nendoroid Shujin (Takagi Akito) from Bakuman. The details are still pretty scarce at the moment, but both of them have already had a pricing. Nendoroid Saiko will be priced at 3800 Yen, while Nendoroid Shujin’s price tag is 3500 Yen. They will also carry three face plates and some accessories – would it be some kind of room/environment and stuff for creating manga? In any case, stay tuned for more updates on them later. ^^

(I hope they will also make both Miho and Kaya into Nendoroid too … ^^;)

UPDATE: Both Nendoroid Saiko and Nendoroid Shujin is scheduled for April 2011 release!

Note: Thanks to KairiZero, Xinq’G, and iBlaze, for providing the photos for our first gathering’s report ^^

December 12, 2010 would be marked as a special day for Nendonesian, especially who lives in Surabaya as we held our first ever Nendonesia gathering at Grand City Mall, Surabaya. We are really proud to be able to hold our first gathering six months after the birth of Nendonesia back then in July 4, 2010 (it was initially named Animaster Talks Nendoroid). (≧∇≦)/

Anyway, before we go through the gallery of our gathering photos, I would like to tell you a few stuff regarding Nendonesia’s site statistics. Let’s go past the break, Nendonesian! ^^

Before I begin today’s report on the 2nd day of Capsule Corp: Toy Expo 2010, I want to thank KairiZero for providing the photos to be included in this post. m(_ _)m <(thanks a lot, KairiZero!)

Well, if I were to say three words to summarize the whole event for today, then it would be “crowded“, “cosplay“, and “venomous“. Yep, today is surely packed with cosplayers, customers, and hobbyists from Surabaya and other cities, not counting the drooling and venomous Nendoroid available in the shops. OK, without further ado, let’s see today’s expo in … photos, after the break.

Capsule Corp: Toy Expo 2010

The first day of Capsule Corp: Toy Expo 2010, Surabaya’s one and only toys event for this year is finally over. Unsurprisingly, it was pretty crowded with mostly figure-collectors hunting their figures/figurines of interests. ^^

I met a couple of Nendonesian there, such as rendoroid and Mr. Stephen. I heard that some Nendonesian from Nendonesia’s Facebook were also coming there, such as yozz00 and a few others, but unfortunately I did not meet any of them. ^^;

Anyway, I got a few photos to share with you, Nendonesian. There are only two stores here that sell Nendoroid, but their selection is awesome! See the photos after the break.

Note: The first two photos below are from Divine & Infernals x rendoroid shoppe and the next set is from Wajuwa Toys.

Dec10 by animaster

Nendoroid Petit Fuuka

So you pre-ordered the 9975 Yen limited edition Disgaea 4 because they included Nendoroid Petit Fuuka? Well, now you get a chance to get a closer look at the adorable Petit of the infamous Prinny hat girl from the game. Yep, her school backpack and the Prinny hat is removable, but I have no idea about the baseball bat. In any case, you will also get a 44-page art book and two CDs of Disgaea 4 soundtrack selection inside the limited edition package.

Now that you have seen the actual bonus in the pack, are you going to reserve it, Nendonesian? ^^

Note: If she was released as a regular-sized Nendoroid, I would have consider purchasing the limited pack. ^^;
