Solar Powered Display Stand

A couple of weeks ago I purchased a solar powered display stand on MightyApe. I thought it would be a bit of fun, especially with how many figures I have! Videos included in this review.

DC Power Girl Sculpt Revealed!

Power Girl!!

After just taking about Power Girl in my last post, the sculpt has finally been released! And I'm already in love!

Kotobukiya 2012 SDCC exclusives!

The last couple of days, Kotobukiya have announced exclusive bishoujo figures they'll be selling at SDCC (San Diego Comic Convention.)

These figures are usually alternate designs for figures they've either already released or announced. (Emma Frost is a good demonstration for the limited versions and normal versions. The clear PVC "diamond" edition of Emma was a limited run.)

For the 2012 SDCC there will be 3 exclusives. So far two have been announced as X-23, Storm and one more soon to be announced.

Marvel Invisible Woman Bishoujo Figure

Invisible Woman turned up on my door step a few weeks ago, and I didn't have a chance to take decent photos of her due to winter and a lack of sunlight!

Invisible Woman (Sue Storm) is a part of the Fantastic Four, and was one of the earlier bishoujo figures to be released. She just wasn't high on my list of figures to get. I've collected the ones I'm most interested in first, and I knew there were still a few of her around for pretty cheap on ebay, so I didn't rush.

Rei and Asuka

This is a bit of a bonus blog entry for Rei and Asuka.
Pretty much just because I love them so much lol! So there won't be much in the way of reviewing, just showing off the figures together :)

Soryu Asuka Langley by Yamato

Earlier on the the year I purchased Asuka Langley. When she arrived I was blown away with the detail of the figure! It surprised me because I had her next to a version of a matching Rei figure, I now believe is a bootleg. That then prompted me to buy a new version of Rei which I reviewed in my last blog.

So, onto Asuka.

What you get in the box.

Rei Ayanami Ver. 2 #025 by Yamato

The story for this figure is a long one..
I've had the #015 version of this figure for a fair few years now, which was fine, and I've always loved it. Until I ordered the Asuka Langley also by Yamato, and the quality was far superior.
I'm not too sure now if the #015 version of Rei I bought was bootleg or not. Going on photos I've seen of her I'm pretty sure she's a bootleg. So I decided to upgrade to the Version 2 of Rei (#025.)
I'm so glad I did!
