There wasn’t much to talk about this week with new figures; I bought Shoujo S and managed to get on the second order for Azusa but that was pretty much it. So I was a little worried about the content of today’s post since there wasn’t much to talk about. Thankfully my store had a shipment of new figures come and one of them - *SHOCK* - I regret getting! Can you tell which one?

Not that it comes as any great shock as Alter has been silent for so long on continuing their Rebuild of Evangelion line, but Kotobukiya officially wins the Great RoE Figure Race to get all three Eva pilots and Misato out on the market. Not that either figure maker knew they were in the Great RoE Figure Race. Not that anyone knew there was a Great RoE Figure Race. I made it up. Just now. For this post. Just goes to show how bummed I am that Alter seems to have forgotten their line. Anyway here are the figures I’m excited about this illustrious week.

I had a nice little treat waiting for me at my local store when I stopped by earlier in the week. And by little I really mean HUGE. Looks like whatever production issues that seemed to universally and negatively impact figure manufactures late last year has been resolved because the floodgates of figure goodness were opened wide this week.

I was pondering which figure to review today as I had quite a few that came in while I was doing my school applications; many of which remain un-opened. However, I happened to glance at my shelf and soon realized that I had gone months without giving this phenomenal figure a proper review. A tremendous error on my part to be sure but one that I’m correcting today. Today we’re taking a look at Alter’s 1/8 scale Narika Shihoudou PVC from Beat Blades Haruka.

Taking the cue from Aka’s recent wishlist I thought it would be fun for me to try my hand at it as well. I thought it would be something fun for the Christmas week as well as easy to write considering I spent the better part of yesterday digging my car out of two feet of snow. Following what Aka did with his I’m also trying to make a true wishlist; meaning these are figures I wish I had but are either hard to obtain, exorbitantly expensive, and/or don’t actually exist but I would like to see made. Santa Yuki is one of them. :3

The stars aligned perfectly for my return. Last week we Max Factory’s Miku Hatsune VN02 mix figure go up for pre-order. Last week also saw the arrival of this little gem from Alter which allowed me to bring her to you today. Today we’re taking a look at Alter’s 1/8th scale Jubei Yaygu PVC from Hyakka Ryoran (aka Samurai Girls).
