Since there have been interests for figurines and gashapons, I've decided to start a NEWS thread dedicated to all things Bots, Figurines, and Gashapons.

This thread will be updated weekly for those that might be interest in upcoming [toy] releases.

Do keep in mind this topic may contain scantily-cladded female characters (don't worry, there will not be nudities), so it may not be suitable for children under the age of 13.

Okay, first Geek News hot off the press:

Kaiyodo will be releasing a beautiful 1/6 prepainted Cammy figurine from the Street Fighter series. Price have not yet been announced.

A shot of yet another Cammy figurine seen at the recent toy show:

Make, material, price, and scale is unknown at this time. Info will be updated as soon as it's available.

Those last ones were kind of sick :scared

I will say the first one is done with more class than some of the car wash figurines. :nicejob

Thanks for the pics Souky! :cheers

I just saw the preorder Cammy figures on HLJ, but didn't have pics, it looks fantastic! But since it's a Kaiyodo, I'm waiting for NA release, it'll be 10 times cheaper :lol

BTW I was a a local model store (known for high prices) yesterday, and he was trying to sell Maya SP repaint for 75 CAD! CRAZY! EVery vendor at the Anime Convention was selling for around 25CAD... beware, buyers! REsearch your prices! :giggle

Souky, have you heard of a PVC figure company called ALTER? Their new upcoming figures (Takako KnioSh*ta of Pia Carrot 3 in bathing suit, and KOS MOS of Xenosaga) look fantastic, and prices are not too steep (Around 5000 yen region). I just wanna know their quality before I buy any

From the looks of it, the quality seems to be quite decent.

Kaiyodo is coming out with a 1/8 Kos-Mos as well, under the Mon-Sieur BOME line (Vol 8).

CLICK.

Priced at 3900 Yen and scheduled for Dec release.

Oh my, Thanks for the news Souky! I'm SOOOO getting these 2. I was thinking the BOME collection was getting kinda crappy (starting from Halloween Girl to the twins recently). But starting from KOS MOS, they're getting back in the game! SWEET!

BTW, why is Eclair's clothes all shiny? :confused

This is a preproduction version, so the actual product may be different. In any case, expect a variant.

Look for 1/6 (12 inch) Asuka & Rei from Medicom (under the RAH series) in March of 2006. Price: $160 USD each.
