Nemmy's first arrivals of 2012

It's the start of the new year and I've already received a vast assortment of items (the AmiAmi haul also got my ass heavily stung by Customs).

I was able to finally play Ougon Musou Kyoku CROSS (which was a pain in the ass to get installed properly) and the official English release of Osananajimi wa Daitouryou (my purchased copy took too long to arrive so I got it via 'other means' as soon as it became available). I also have the much awaited Katawa Shoujo ready to play as well (I've been wanting to see more of this since I finished the Act 1 demo).

Another load of toys fresh from Japan

Today brought me another delivery of toys from Fan2Fan.


Most of the items were of the figma and Revoltech variety.

• Revoltech SFO He Tai Shou
• figma Makina Hoshimura
• figma Haruhi Suzumiya Cheerleader Ver.
• figma Mikuru Asahina Cheerleader Ver.
• figma Haruhi Suzumiya Summer Clothes Ver.
• Revoltech Revolution Jagi
• Revoltech SFO Chun-Li
• Revoltech Fraulein Yoko Movie ver.
• figma Signum
• figma Saber Casual Ver.
• figma Shirou Emiya
• S.H.Figarts Masked Rider Gaoh
  

But I did get a couple of anime figures too.

Max Factory 1/8 Haruhi Suzumiya Gekisou Ver.
Alter 1/7 Fate T. Harlaown Shin Sonic Form

This will probably be the last of my 'big' hauls for 2009, and it was a pretty decent one at that.

Nemmy has returned with another load of toys

It has been a couple of months since I last posted here but never-mind; having a lack of motivation in-between getting distracted by other things isn't the best thing to have when thinking of stuff to write for a blog.

So once again I'll just be putting more of what I've been buying.


First we have some Animated repaints I got from a sale on Play.com.

• Animated Shadow Blade Megatron
• Animated Blazing Lockdown
  

Next we have the DX Ixa gear I was lucky to get on clearance from HobbyLink Japan.

• DX Ixa Belt
• DX Ixa Calibur
• DX IxaRiser
  

Then to further complete my need for black repaints I went to Kapow Toys and picked-up this little beauty.

• Alternity A-01 Convoy Super Black
  

Now we come to the first part of the latest haul I received from Fan2Fan.

• Griffon 1/7 Mikuru Asahina Gothic Punk ver.
• Alter 1/8 Haruhi Suzumiya Uniform Ver.
• Kotobukiya 1/8 Tomoyo Sakagami
• Alter 1/8 Haruhi Suzumiya Chara-Ani Uniform Ver.
  

Now here's the second part of that haul from Fan2Fan.

• Revoltech VF-1J Hobby Japan Milia Ver.
• S.H.Figuarts Masked Rider 2
• figma Saber Lily (with PS2 game)
• figma Ryoko Asakura
• Revoltech Revolution Rei
• S.H.Figuarts Masked Rider Decade
• figma Yuki Nagato Evil Witch Ver.
• figma Fate T. Harlaown
• Revoltech Fraulein Haruhi Suzumiya (with Wii game)
• S.H.Figuarts Masked Rider DiEnd
• Nendoroid Yoko
• Revoltech Fraulein Yoko Animate Movie Ver.
  

And finally today from Play.com, we have the repaints of the only RotF toys I own.

• Revenge of the Fallen Swerve
• Revenge of the Fallen Dead End

I think that's everything covered now. I don't think there's anything major missing, but knowing me I've probably forgotten something along the way.

Starting the week with a load of new toys

I'll keep this brief as I want to have a better look at this haul I received from Fan2Fan.


I got me some figma, Revoltech and Souchaku Henshin.

• figma.BP Suzaku Kururugi x2
• figma Doala Visitor ver.
• figma Rin Kagamine
• figma Len Kagamine
• Revoltech Fraulein Mami Futami Snow Strawberry Ver.
  
• figma Shana Enpatsu ver.
• Souchaku Henshin Masked Rider Arc & Rey

A few more anime figures.

• Gift 1/8 Saber
• Alter 1/7 Teana Lanster
• Lilics 1/6 Limit Gunz
  

And finally, I have these Valkyries from Macross Frontier.

• DX Chogokin VF-25F Messiah Alto Custom
• DX Chogokin VF-25S Messiah Ozma Custom

This little assortment of goodies will keep me busy for awhile until my next shipment arrives.

Better late than never is a good way to describe this purchase

Like I said when I got my Henkei Convoy. I had some eBay vouchers, and I redeemed the 10% off voucher on this Reinforce Zwei figure from rosarybox.


Reinforce Zwei was one of the first releases in the 1/7 scale Nanoha StrikerS figure range by Alter, and I rather foolishly missed out on getting her while she was still readily avilable on the market.

I didn't have anything else in mind for that voucher, so it became the perfect chance to finally get her into my collection of anime figures.

Minato will now have a Fate to stand with

I just saw something today that reminded of that 'Minato' figure I made an post about in late January.

And the reason why I'm mentioning it again now is because of this.


Good Smile Company have just made it harder to do that Minato comparison with their swimsuit Nanoha by releasing a matching figure of Fate T. Harlaown in her swimsuit attire.

I originally had little interest in getting that Nanoha figure, but now I kinda want it as there'll be a Fate to display with her.

How can anyone resist having these Nanoha and Saber figures?

Well, it appears Alter will be getting more of my money now that I've seen their awesome looking (StrikerS) Nanoha Takamachi and Saber Lily figures.

Both of these figures have a release date of October, and that gives me a little over four months to scrape together some funds to get them.

I know one thing that'll probably scare me about Nanoha once I have her in my possession. Her box might be even bigger than that of Hayate!

I never thought this haul would arrive today!

I got myself quite the unexpected haul from Fan2Fan today.

The reason it was unexpected is because I didn't even know that Ryan had sent it until the Parcelfarce guy arrived with them.

More importantly though, here are all the wonderful toys that were in those parcels.


These were the Revoltech, figma and S.I.C. items I received.

• Revoltech Fraulein Haruka Hasegawa
• Revoltech Fraulein Miki Hoshii Noel Angelic Ver.
• S.I.C. Masked Rider Shadow Moon & Black
• figma Miyuki Takara Winter Uniform ver.
• figma Sun Seto
• figma Sakura Hime JPWA Tag Tournament ver.

These were the Nendoroid and freebie items I received.

• Nendoroid Miku Hatsune
• Nendoroid Rin Kagamine
• Nendoroid Len Kagamine
• Nendoroid Shana Epatsu-Shakugan Ver.
• Nendoroid Saber Lion
• Some gashapon-esque Masked Rider Zanki figure
  

This was (by far) the largest item I received.

• Alter 1/7 Hayate Yagami

And finally, these were the anime figure items I received.

• Good Smile Company 1/7 Shiki Ryougi Garannodou
• Alpha x Omega 1/8 Kallen Kouzuki Bunny Girl Ver.
• Wave 1/8 Yoko Space-Look Ver.
• Alter 1/8 Asa Shigure
• Resinya 1/6 Kudryavka Noumi Wafu pose ver.
• Kotobukiya 1/8 Kyou Fujibayashi

Personally, I think the biggest shocker inside this haul for me was the Hayate figure cos the box for her was so fucking huge she needed her own damn photo!

The first Wolkenritter figma enters the fray

Another figma is now available for pre-ordering, and this one is going to be awesome.

Here we have Signum of the Wolkenritter to continue the range of Nanoha figmas.


Some of you may remember that I got a figure of her in a haul not too long ago.

Anyway, I will say Max Factory have done well here in giving Signum the Schwertform, Schlangenform and Bogenform versions of her Armed Device Laevatein.

And even though she wouldn't have been my first choice of the Wolkenritter to see as a figma. It does give me hope that they'll do one of Vita later on.

I'll be the one in a Riot if I don't get this Fate

Of all the characters from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS that Alter have been making into figures. This one is easily my most wanted of the bunch as Fate Testarossa played a major part in drawing my eye to the Nanoha franchise to begin with.

Their newest figure is of one Fate T. Harlaown with her Barrier Jacket in New Sonic Form wielding Bardiche Assault as either the Riot Blade or Riot Zanber.


Again, this is another figure that is due for release in August.

Ugh, I'm still pissed that I haven't managed to obtain Alter's previous Fate Testarossa as I consider it to be one of the most awesome and impressive figures that I've ever seen.

And with that in mind. I will not be missing my chance to get an order in for their newest figure of Fate!
