Nendoroid Noumi Kudryavka: Black version?

It is just a matter of hours before the awaited Winter Wonder Festival 2011 begin, and the first Nendoroid has been leaked. It is Nendoroid Noumi Kudryavka: Black version, made by Gift. So far, the noticable differences are the color of her clothes, her expression, and her dog. No further info is seen on her display card though, but we would probably see more later. ^^

Nendoroid Calendar 2011

Mikatan posted an article about some goodies that would be given away at the upcoming WonFes – which is scheduled to be held on Sunday. The Nendoroid Calendar is one item that caught my attention, other than the Nendoroid Listing poster. Apparently, those goodies would be given away for free if you visit GSC booth on the WonFes, although the stock is pretty limited too. In any case, visit Mikatan’s blog for more pics and info on the goodies. ^^

Another Look at Nendoroid Black Rock Strength

Jan23 by animaster

Nendoroid Black Rock Strength

Nendoroid Black Rock Strength (a.k.a STR) has been spotted for quite a few times already, but the poses were similar – STR wearing the Ogre Arms. This magazine scan revealed STR’s CHANxCO expression and pose (how adorable! ^^), as well as how she looks like without her Ogre Arms equipped. Her pricing has been announced as well: 3500 Yen. No info regarding her release date yet, but I guess GSC would announce it in the upcoming WonFes. ^^

Nendoroid STR is already inside my purchase list. What about you, Nendonesian? ^^
