This past weekend the Tokyo Big Sight (東京ビッグサイト) was host to the 6th annual Tokyo International Anime Fair (東京国際アニメフェア) and Hobby Stock has put up a report detailing their ventures and nerdgasms round the exhibit halls. Nothing particularly new at TAF as far as the hobby side of things go, but for those who have been living under a rock as WF2007 Winter wafted by earlier in the year, the Hobby Stock report provides glimpses of what we're to expect from the Good Smile Company contingent during this year.
Note: For a much more thorough report of TAF 2007, I recommend heading on over to Danny Choo's blog.
And as expected, further promotion was out in full force for GSC's collaborative plans with Broccoli and RED Entertainment's Shuraki series. I still maintain the excitement swirling around me for the news ever since it was announced at WF2007.
And towards the end of the report you will see yet another release for the Onegai series.
But crikey, these look rather good. Very good, actually. If these unpainted prototypes are any where near indicative of what we'll get fresh from the wrappings, I'd be tempted to declare these -- presentation and sculpt altogether -- as the best in the Onegai series of trading figures. Even rivaling Kotobukiya's past One-Coin offerings.
Moving on to yesterday's postings from the quarters of Lolipuni are scoops from the latest issue of Hobby Japan~

Excellent Model Core Queen's Blade Tomoe & Elina
1/8 scale | PVC | 5,250 yen (each) | July 2007 | MegaHouse | Queen's Blade

Excellent Model RAH.DX G.A. Side-07 G.A.13 Sochie Heim (ソシエ ハイム)
1/8 scale | PVC | 4,200 yen | July 2007 | MegaHouse | ∀ Gundam

Alicia Florence (アリシア フローレンス)
1/8 scale | PVC | 5,800 yen | Summer 2007 | Max Factory | ARIA

Kureha (クレハ)
1/7 scale | PVC | ???? yen | August 2007 | Max Factory | Shining Wind

Shana (シャナ)
1/8 scale | PVC | $42.99 USD | May/June 2007 (North American release) | Yamato USA | Shakugan no Shana
Everybody's favourite melon bread munchin' Flame Haze represents from Yamato's Extra! Story Image Figure! lineup. A notable feature will be Shana's sword being made of die-cast metal.
Finally what we have here from DreamTech is surely something to add to your amassing ToHeart2 collection.

Lucy Maria Misora (ルーシー・マリア・ミソラ)
1/7 scale | PVC | 5,145 yen | Summer 2007 | DreamTech | ToHeart2
DreamTech appears to be a new subsidiary of WAVE which promises to cater to the fastidious of hobby collectors with their higher quality of goods, as they proclaim in their mission statement. An ambitious claim indeed and considering Lucy is one of my more favoured characters from TH2, plus the added meido element, and a rather impressive Honami and Eri PVC, DreamTech is really stroking my g-spot here, so I'd say they're off on the right foot with their moelicious lineup~
