Even though FREEing has moved on and has announced plans to release more characters from the Lucky Star cast in their 1/4 scale glory, I’m not yet finished with the original four girls ;) In the past, I have shown their seifuku and miko outfits but this time I have a new treat: Cheerleader uniforms!
Azone has released the final member of the Keion club in doll form: cute little Azusa ^^. I just so happen to have her ;)
This past weekend I had the opportunity to meet up with fellow DD enthusiast TsunamiDelta. He was is town for a local steam show and we managed to find some time to meet on Saturday. TsunamiDelta brought Moiraine Rin along to meet Yui who was quite eager to make a new friend ^^. We set out for the Canal district in search of scenic locations for the girls.
Every so often you come across one of those figures that so precisely reminds you of why you like to like to collect figures in the first place. Amazingly enough, I’ve got two such figures right here in this post, though their release dates were quite some time apart. Alter has really hit the mark with their two Odin Sphere figures: Gwendolyn and more recently Mercedes. I have decided to group these two figures together into a single, awesome-filled post ;) Read on for more details and pretty pics.
A few weeks back, I was able to spend a nice (and hot) Saturday afternoon strolling through downtown Indianapolis. Yui decided to come along for the round as well ^^;
Finally a new(ish) figure review! Good Smile Company recently released Black Rock Shooter figure found its way to me last week and I’ve got some piccies to prove it ;) Although I did not purchase first BRS figure (black rock cannon version), I seriously was tempted at the time. That is why when I saw the awesome-looking Blade version, I decided to not let her pass me by again!
There is a new reason to rejoice for Lucky Star fans. Today, FREEing started reservations for a new 1/4 scale Lucky Star figure: Yutaka Kobayakawa! Like the previous FREEing 1/4 scale Lucky Star figures, Yutaka is dressed in a school gym uniform, only this time instead of shorts, she is wearing bloomers. Yay! ;)
Yutaka is from one of the younger classes, maybe that’s why she gets bloomers? She’s super cute! I think we’ll be seeing more of the other girls coming in the future too. Good Smile says this “The Lucky Star gym uniform series from FREEing is set to continue, this time bringing all the characters in the other classes to join their older friends!”. Even more of the other girls to follow? :D
Yutaka will be released in October and will retail for 14,095 yen. A bit pricey, but she is 1/4 scale. She is available for pre-order at Amiami for 11,250 yen and Hobby Search for 11,981 yen (plus 599 points!) so you won’t have to pay the full retail price :)
Anyone going to be getting her? I am very tempted by her moe-ness! I already have the original 4 figures by FREEing and I’m compelled to get all the girls in the set. Very possible get for me!

The never-ending stream of cute Azone dolls continues, this time with Kotobuki Tsumugi, or Mugi-chan as she is more commonly known, from the popular series K-ON!. And, of course, I have acquired this cute new Azone doll and am able to present to you the following review. Let’s start with some pictures ^^
