Cheerful Japan Luka Nendoroid Previews!

Dancing Queen — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 21:07:07 +0000

I am still so much in love with the Cheerful Japan line. Good Smile Company’s way of helping us otaku get awesome limited edition figures while also donating to a great cause!

This new Luka won’t come with a new face sadly but does come with some awesome extra parts! New hair option to help Luka put her long pink hair in a ponytail, two adorable pink pom poms, a Cheerful Japan visor for tako luka and a tambourine!

Luka does come with all of her own original parts as well.

She also still comes with the silly “Agoaniki” face which is from the video for the song Double Lariat. It’s actually my favorite Luka song!

Luka is out for order now until the end of the month. She’s 3,500 yen and can be found online here. Get yours before they sell out!

Don’t forgot about the handmade Anime plushies I’m selling, all proceeds go to helping me getting Saber Extra Dollfie Dream.

AX Live! Every Thursday at 7pm PST! We’ve been doing Giveaways recently so make sure to check out the show to be able to win some awesome prizes!! Plus every week we give away a 4day badge to the convention for 2012!

Handmade Hatsune Miku Plush

Dancing Queen — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:22:43 +0000

My latest Creation! Hatsune Miku! For those of you who aren’t following me on Twitter or Facebook I also have made Saber and Black Rock Shooter! Please check my etsy for more dolls to come and please support!

Been wanting to make Miku for some time now, she was one I wanted to get perfect, took me a few trips to different stores to find the perfect Teal Green for her hair!

She had to have Shimapan as well, so I included some classic Blue shimapan but you can request a different color when you order your own if you like!

As mentioned she’s for sale on my Etsy page. Thanks for support me guys! I love you all!! <3<3<3

Dancing Queen — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 08:29:34 +0000

Mikatan updated her blog with the new Kaito Nendoroid for the Cheerful Japan series of figures that a portions of the sales go to Charity!

SOO CUTE!

Adorable flags

Miku looks so dapper in Kaito’s outfit.

As you can see he’ll come with a new body and it’s super adorable and awesome! I will be getting him for sure, now we just have to have our fingers crossed for a Cheerful Japan Luka! Kaito will also come with his normal body so you’ll have two bodies, but for sure I’ll be displaying him with the new body! He’s up for pre-order at GSC’s site from October 11th till the 27th of October.

Nendoroid Meiko Previews

Dancing Queen — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 23:00:41 +0000

Mikatan has just updated her site with preview pics of Nendoroid Meiko! I’m so glad they are finally making this nendoroid! The main reason I started collecting Nendoroids forever ago was because of this video that had them dancing and Miku has just been released. I pounced and got her and then the Kagamine Twins as well as Kaito! Now that they’ve released Meiko I am a step closer to having them all from the video!

Looks like no magnet design on this nendoroid.

But with the new arm design for the bases it’s easier to pose them in cool poses!

She comes with a little drunk face!

Would you *hic* like *hic* some sake? *hic*

She’ll be out for pre-order tomorrow so no price information just yet but I’ll update the site later with all her info!

For now keep an eye on all these figure retailers tomorrow for her pre-order!

Phat Company Ani M.O.V.E. Lily

Dancing Queen — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 09:02:22 +0000

Phat Company’s Ani M.O.V.E. Lily, this figure is amazing! Yet I have a few small issues with this figure. While since Phat Company is still new they are allowed some hiccups, they have some that I didn’t think were really that unacceptable.

Her face is cute but something I came across when I was doing the photos is that she’s hard to photograph, you get the wrong angle and her face looks awkward.

However she does have such a pretty outfit, not cosplay worthy unless you wanna be loaded up with plenty of double sided tape.

Love how real the monitor speaker looks!

Cute Tramp Stamp, yet horrible seam line in her hair.

Love the blue on her nails, matches her eyes.

They could have done such a better job on her hair. I love the idea of of going to opaque to clear, but it could have been done so much better.

She does look great with the sparkly background, fitting for a rock star!

a bit of boobie peaking out!

Love this picture, sadly that my favorite picture is the one where you can’t see her face. But I love her face so much!

Nice black panties! This is rare, most of my figures have white pantsu!

Side boob, near the top!

She’s cute, I’m glad I got her and don’t plan on selling her at anytime soon. However I wouldn’t recommend anyone buy her unless they were huge fans of Lily, Vocaloid or M.O.V.E. She’s cute but not an “omg if i don’t own her I’ll die!” figure.

-Figure Info-
Manufactured by Phat Company
1/8 Scale
Initial release in January ’11
Price of 7,800 Yen

She just came out recently, shouldn’t be too hard to find, try any one of these awesome retailers! All Bootleg free! Unlike those on my Black List

Groove Vocaloid Dolls

Dancing Queen — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 18:00:59 +0000

Some very interesting dolls from the ever so popular Vocaloid series have been announced for pre-order and I’m hesitant. They look amazing but something about it is off and I think I’ll end up passing, yet something intrigues me about these dolls. Maybe it’s the large head and smaller bodies that are so similar to Nendoroids and what I adore about the Nendoroids. Maybe I don’t like them for the lifelike look of the eyes and how the head is maybe almost too big. I can’t put my finger on it.

Miku here is adorable, but something just tells me to pass on this.

For sure I wouldn’t be getting the Kagamine Twins, Rin looks so mad and frowny and that’s not really my cup of tea when it comes to figure faces. I love happy smiling faces and when you see such a cute character making such an ugly face i can’t help but pass.

Same goes for Len, It almost seems like they are doing what i refer to as the “Duck Face” when I try to look “cool” and “badass” in pictures i go for a pouty face and it ends up looking like i’m trying to look like a duck. I feel that both Len and Rin are doing just that and it’s not something for me. At round 11,600+ yen I think I’d rather save my money for something else, will you be picking these dolls up? If so why or why not? If so check out these fine retailers who should have them up for pre-order!

Adorable Kaito Nendoroid!

Dancing Queen — Tue, 05 May 2009 02:37:10 +0000

Flickr Link

I’m such a sucker for completing sets when it comes to figures. My first Nendoroid was Hatsune Miku, and so i had to get the cute Kagamine Twins. So once i had that set of three, I knew I had to get Kaito as well! Now for GSC to pull more money from me is to make a Kaito pvc, and figma…

Flickr Link

Such a manly face, Sorry Len he’s the manliest nendo out there.

Flickr Link

But these rosy cheeks do suit him so well! Look at him enjoying his ice cream!

Wanna hug?

I wanna hug!

AWWWWW!!!

He’s just so happy!

I like changing the faces between Nendoroids, here he has one of Shana’s faces.

Flickr Link

With the Kagamine twins!

Flickr Link

With the entire gang! If they make more Vocaloid Nendos I’ll be sure to get them to make the little set complete! Also because I’d love to have them do this little dance!

Kagamine Twins Nendoroids, Live Tour!

Dancing Queen — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 22:13:05 +0000

The best part about being addicted to Nendoroids, if having tons of adorable Nendoroids to choose from! After getting Miku, i just had to get my hands on the adorable Kagamine Twins. GSC sure knows how to market to figure collectors who want the whole set. I’m a roll with these reviews, I love getting back on track with my posts!

I think out of all the Nendoroids that i own, the ones with the cutest faces are the Kagamine Twins.

I love how they came with blank faces and stickers to create your own design of silly faces! So many too choose from but this is what i came up with!

Awe Len is embarrassed to have to dress up like his sister! But Rin seems to be having fun!

just so cute!

Now they both seem much more content in their own outfits!

Miku joins them for a quick shot. Once i got Miku here in the middle not having the Kagamine twins just seemed wrong. Plus with Good Smile knowing just what they’re doing with the announcement of the Kaito Nendoroid I’m going for the entire set with the Nendos. Lets just hope on my wallet they don’t also make a Kaito Pvc and Figma. But then that would also be very awesome to own as well! Now I couldn’t get without the other, but did everyone do this or just get their favorite of the two?

Goodbye Money, HELLO FIGURES!

Dancing Queen — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 01:00:22 +0000

Wow first Macross PVC Figure and it isn’t Ranka! Not that i don’t like Ranka, I <3 Ranka unlike a certain deftoned i know… But this is refreshing to see a Kuran Kuran figure instead.

This Wonfes has been making me cream my pants and i’m drooling up a storm. I can honestly say that I will never have money saved up ever again if these figure companies keep announcing these amazing figures. Now all these photos are courtesy of moeyo.com and of ota-suke.jp since i’m still way too far to make it to wonfes…

Alter Teena Looks awesome, still need to finish watching Strikers…

Alter Sigmun, must have… Deftoned’s Take on Signum.

Another Alter Fate?!?! GOODBYE MONEY!

Hello Feito-chan! I know someone else is going to be very broke as well…

Hayate Figma looks good, I might have to find a way to get me all three girls…

Alter Louise, my brother will love this, i still need to finish watching the second season…

Wave Wonfes Limited 1/8 Yoko… ME WANTS :’(

Wave’s Limited Edition 1/8 Space Yoko. I’ve got both this and the regular versions pre-ordered… Get the Limited Version here and the Regular Here.

Eyeup 1/8 Yoko, I’ve got her pre-ordered as well. Pre-order your own here!

Eyeup Kamina is also a must get in my book! Thats why i have him pre-ordered as well! Pre-order your own here!

Keiyodo Fraulien Revoltech Yoko, I got my pre-order in already have you? get you own here!

You gotta admit she looks sweet!

I want this Yoko, But from what i know it’s a resin kit only . Someone needs to PVC this bad boy! Or Bad Girl ^_~

Pretty please! I really want a pvc of this!

Edit: OMG THEY ARE MAKING A PVC OF THIS!!! I I’ll be released by wave this winter!

ZOMG NENDO YOKO! I MUST GET THIS, MAYBE PVC OR FIGMA ISN’T TOO FAR OFF HEY GSC/MAX FACTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_~

Resin kit yoko? Hopefully being turned into a pvc on day?

Edit: Moeyo says this will be an Ami Ami figure set for this winter… No idea how i’ll go about getting her but i will find a way!

More Yoko Goodness! Love the look on her face!

Body looks great as well!

Edit:This is going to be a figure from Gift, she’s due in spring time of next year as well. WOOT

Yomako Sensei Resin? Maybe Pvc, nobody knows… Or at least i don’t She still looks amazing!

Edit: Got some more information, this is going to be an Alter release she’s set for March of next year!!! WOOT WOOT

Also this version of Space yoko to be released by Movic for a whopping 10,500 yen. Thats debatable whether or not i’ll get her. All depends on my finances at the time i guess…

Last but not least, Rin and Len Figmas. Maybe PVCs will come soon after since Miku is got the Pvc, figma and Nendo treatment.
