Wonder Festival 2010 Winter Report - Page 2

kby01 Let's start with Kotobukiya. This is Hitagi Senjougahara from "Bakemonogatari," which is expected to be the next big hit.
kby02 Here's a yukata version of Rei Ayanami from "Evangelion." It's scheduled for release in summer, the perfect yukata season.
kby03 A sentimental blast from the (not-so-distant) past: Here's Serika Kurusugawa from the first-generation "To Heart." Even older characters are getting new versions.
kby04 This plastic model kit series is from "Hoi Hoi-san," which is an under-the-radar hit. A third character, Pest X-san, has been introduced. She looks dressed to kill--literally!
kby05 Jaldabaoth from "Super Robot Wars" is getting the model kit treatment! Just looking at the prototype, it's clear that this is going to be a big package.
kby06 This is a robot from Kotobukiya's original Frame Arms series. The new product is the militaristic Type 32 Model 5 Zenrai.
kby07 From the same Frame Arms series comes the SA-16d Kufanjaru. It seems kind of like the number-two mecha in a series, piloted by the rival character.
kby08 Kotobukiya's D-Style series (D is for "deformed," of course!) will continue with the White Glint from "Patlabor," now in the planning stages.
alt01 And now let's move on to Alter. Gigantic signs for "Lyrical Nanoha" and "K-On!" were very conspicious.
alt02 From "Oboromura Masa," here's the lead character, Momo-Hime. Her soft clothing and hard armor have been very accurately reproduced.
alt03 Here's the Mio Akiyama School Festival Version from "K-On!" Unlike the uniform version, here she looks a ilttle bit embarrassed.
alt04 Azusa Nakano from the same series. No doubt this one will sell out immediately, too.
alt05 Clalaclan Philias from "Shining Wind" will be released in an armored version. She's a gallant princess.
alt06 From "Valkyrie Chronicles" comes a Valkyrie version of Salvaria Bles. Her hair is modeled so that it looks like it's covered in flames.
azn01 And here's Azone. They're really pushing "K-On!" as well. All five members have been turned into dolls.
azn02 Keyboardist Tsumugu Kotobuki will be available in April for a price of 14,700 yen.
azn03 Here's drummer Ritsu Tainaka. Sadly, it seems that she won't come with her drum set...
azn04 And finally there's the newest member, Azusa Nakano. She really works as an Azone doll.
azn05 Here's Ma-Ryan from "To Heart 2." Although she's an older character, her proportions seem very immature--it's that Azone influence again.
azn06 Another nostalgic moment--from the magical girl series "Creamy Mami," here's Yu Morisawa.
ymt01 Now Yamato's booth. Following on the heels of the Rei Ayanami figure, a Shunya Yamashita version of Asuka Langley is in the planning stages.
ymt02 Tamaki Kousaka makes her appearance in Yamato's lineup of posable figures. her expression is from the orthodox school of moe.
ymt03 Heat Blade, in the Tsukasa Bullet figure series, is also in the planning stages.
ymt04 Here's the Super Soniko Baby Doll Version. She comes with a wealth of accessories, including a guitar, a refrigerator, and a stuffed teddy bear.
