It’s quite a while since I’ve done a proper figure review, hasn’t it? ^^;
Time to change that! This time, I have a special treat. Following the Super Konata and Super Kagami reviews from last year, it’s a Super Tsukasa and Super Miyuki double review! These lovely ladies round out the last two entries of FREEing’s 1/4 scale Lucky Star set. Continue reading '“Super” Tsukasa & Miyuki (FREEing)'»
Some recently acquired goodies ^^. I’ve got a long list of figures that I have not yet had a chance to post about but have been quite busy recently (more on that soon). First up is the adorable and unique Kagabu plushie from Lucky Star. Kagabu is not an official character from the series. From some Google’ing, I found that there is a doujinshi comic in which Kagami is a pig/girl thing and this is what it’s based on. I haven’t read the manga so I don’t actually know what it’s about ^^; However, that didn’t stop me from wanting my own Kagabu :D
ぶーぶー
Lucky Star and FREEing strike back with the recent release of Hiiragi Kagami in 1/4 scale. This is a follow-up to last month’s “Super” Konata, a figure of epic proportions (literally). Luckily, “Super” Kagami does not disappoint ^^. Continue reading 'FREEing 1/4 “Super” Kagami'»
Returned home today to find a rather large package from Hobby Search waiting for me. It was packed full of delicious bishoujos :D
Three new Lucky Star girls and a Kyou challenger appears! Since I’m quite cheap and shipping EMS is quite expensive, I try to package as many items into a single order as possible. Hobby Search is great for this as they will hold your items up to a month and then ship them all together. Results in a slight delay for some items that are released early in the month but saves a lot of money on shipping ^^
I’m looking forward to playing with my new toys over the long Labor Day weekend :-D

On a unrelated note, I have been keeping myself busy with a few new games (new to me, at least). Picked up LittleBigPlanet (PS3), God of War 2 (PS2), and borrowed Persona 4 (PS2) from a friend. Too many games, too little time xD The PS2 games play quite nicely on my PS3 thanks to the backwards compatible hardware in the 60GB model.
And lastly, I’m almost done with final part of my Italy trip coverage. Should have done that a while ago ^^;
Hey, look at this ^^ At the ongoing Chara Hobby 2009 event, FREEing displayed new, alternative outfits for their 1/4 scale Lucky Star figures. Konata was released last month and Kagami will be out in a few days. By default, all the figures come with gym uniforms but it looks like we’ll have the option to pick up cheerleader, miko, and winter serafuku outfits as well!
So awesome! It now makes perfect sense why they designed the figures to be (mostly safe) cast-offable ^^ Buy the figure once and you’ll have the ability to dress it in multiple sets of clothing :) It seems the cheerleader outfit will be the first one released. Now we just need some details on pricing and release dates.
Will probably be more interesting goodies shown at Chara Hobby later ^^

Haven’t been able to post recently due to work being extra busy the past week (yay broken servers) and having some family visit from out of town. But it was worth the wait since I can now finally review the FREEing Konata I received a bit ago. I present here “Super” Konata! Continue reading 'FREEing 1/4 “Super” Konata!'»
Quite literally, that is…
A sneak peak at my latest acquisition which arrived today. I knew right away what it was based on the size of the package ^^; Konata is FREEing’s first figure in their 1/4 scale Lucky Star set and was released last week.
I know it’s 1/4 scale and is supposed to be big but I’m amazed by the size of this figure >_< The above picture shows Konata against my monitor. That’s a 26″ monitor and it really shows the sheer size of Konata ^^. Also, the gym uniform is nice. Real fabric!
Anyway, no time for a full review right now. I will be posting more pics and a proper review sometime this week. Look forward to it :)
Looks like I got back just in time ^^. The last of the four Lucky Star girls in FREEing’s 1/4 scale set went up for pre-ordering yesterday. This time it’s Miyuki Takara, the moe-clumsy meganeko. I like her pose here, it definitely captures her moe-centric personality :)
You can place your pre-order at Hobby Search for a mere 11,581 yen ^^; The figure itself will be released sometime in October. For those who like Lucky Star, FREEing’s 1/4 Konata from this set was released a few days ago. You can order her right now for a slightly less, but still hefty 10,677 yen price tag.
