Custom Nendoroid Barnaby Brooks Jr. with Hatsune Miku

I guess there are a lot of folks who want to see characters from TIGER & BUNNY to be shrunk into Nendoroid size. Well, due to some potential licensing issue with a certain figure manufacturer, I don’t think we will ever see Nendoroid rendetion of the super heroes. XD

Worry not, the Nendoroid realm is full of creative and talented folks who are more than willing to pump their effort in order to create a Nendoroid rendetion of their fave character, as shown in this custom-made Nendoroid Barnaby Brooks Jr., one of the main character in TIGER & BUNNY. Kindly see the pics after break. ^^
