Orchid Seed Elf PVC: Lineage II

My first review on the new machine!  Even though I remembered to save all the files from the old system I forgot to save the program files so I was busy digging out all sorts of disks.  Then when I found and reinstalled Photoshop I remembered that I had further forgotten so save any of the Adobe logs, so all my actions and settings were gone.  It was easy enough to remake that though: back before I discovered the Actions feature in Photoshop I shopped each picture manually.  Now that process is like forever etched into my memory.  Today we’re talking a loot at Orchid Seed’s 1/7th scale Elf PVC figure from Lineage II.

Too busy to do a review but here is my latest haul instead

Title says it all.  It was another busy weekend for me (you would think getting prepared to go back to school for the first time in 4 years would be easier) so I didn’t have the time to get a good review in order.  This is also why I was so late in responding to all your comments from last Friday; it’s not that I didn’t want to but I just couldn’t find the time.  So, instead of my normal review, please enjoy my latest compilation haul.  Thirteen figures from all over the spectrum; name your moe and there is a good chance it’s represented in today’s haul.

Wonder Festival 2010 Winter

Wonder Festival 2010 Winter was held just this last Sunday, one of the premier venues for both professional and amateur figure makers to show off their wares.  The companies which attended the event didn’t seem to showcase as many new figures compared to Wonder Festival 2009 Summer though.  It’s either that or the fact that I’m following new announcements more closely now so not much is surprising me.  Either way here are the figures from the event that I’m excited about.

Orchid Seed Seena Kanon PVC: Shining Wind

I’m cracking into my two week old haul with the review today.  A little faster than I usually like to do but I feel like this little gem isn’t getting the real attention it deserves.  Today we’re taking a look at Orchid Seed’s Seena Kanon PVC figure from Shining Wind.

First haul of the new year! nyoro~n

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.

A blast from the past, a wish for the future, and more

Wasn’t here last week so I wanted to go a bit further back to cover some material that I missed.  It doesn’t look like I’m alone in that since Kotobukiya too went “a bit further back” and dug up the idea to do Azumanga Daioh! figures after the franchise had long since finished.  I don’t know how this will ultimately play out for them, but I for one completely support more Azumanga love and also formally request that Kotobukiya make a Lina Inverse figure.
