Feito-sama’s True Sonic Form

Well, that came faster then expected… I am not complaining, it is just that I have a lot of computer parts lying on my desk and well yeah! I didn’t have enough room. Heh. So I have been waiting for this for a while, I saw the price and my mouth closed a little, but the figure size and beauty and the fact that it’s Fate (I love Fate), made me compulsively preorder instantly.

Of course I am talking about the StrikerS figure, Alter’s 1/7 Fate T. Harlaown True Sonic Form PVC and while I like the younger versions of the characters, I couldn’t resist getting this one because in all honesty; This is the best looking Feito figure to buy at the moment and probably for a long ass time.

Umineko no Naku Koro ni – 09

Checking up on Kanon and Jessica, the remaining nine find only her corpse behind the door to her room, marked with a pentagram. It is speculated that only one of the servants master keys could have locked the door and therefore they are suspected by Rosa, and further attention is directed at the missing Kanon as the culprit or that his key was used. Battler reflects on possible events and stumble across the fact that Kanon’s key is still in Jessica’s pocket.

NEW Higurashi Pocket’s to DIE for…

banpresto_higurashi01
More Higurashi stuff to collect! So as title suggests there is going to be another set; Banpresto’s Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Deformation Maniac Figure Collection – Pocket Vol.3! I know it’s a mouthful. This set features a “Take Home” Rena, a Nekomimi Rika, Miyo Takano!, and some crappy “Bawww” Satoko.

These figures like the preview set, will sell at about ¥600 each, and released in mid April 2010 (Too far away!) But be careful though, these cute little girls may have you stabbed, shot down, injected, or pushed off a bridge just to get them. I’m not going to take my eyes off of these until they become orderable, or else I might end up scratching out my own throat if I miss getting them.

The Shrine of Otaku Fandom

I haven’t really made many figure posts primarily because, where do I begin? I don’t usually get many figurines, and suddenly to start blogging about them is a little daunting. I do get some novelty figures, like the Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Daybreak Gachapon collectables and the Pani Poni Dash tradables, but that was mainly a perk of the hour. I have a few reasons for not doing posts like these.

It isn’t exactly a great shrine and it does not stay like this unfortunately, Haha. These are just some of the prominent pieces of the subculture merchandise I have collected primarily over the past year or so. At first I thought buying this stuff was kind of silly, but I have grown to love acquiring it all and collecting them. As you can tell, I’m an avid fan of Higurashi / Umineko / Shana. You could also say a fan of Haruhi except expectations and standards have been lowered recently, and I shouldn’t have to go into that.

So what we have here really is my figure collection, artbooks, DVD’s, and some miscellaneous. I shall go through it all!

Rosa finds the key in the letter Maria received earlier and opens the chapel doors only to stumble upon the corpses of her siblings, their stomachs gutted and filled with candy. The first twilight has begun.
