Preview: Sword Art Online II Sinon 1/7 by Kaitendoh painted prototype and information revealed
Seen at Wonder Festival 2015 [Winter] back in February this year unpainted, Sword Art Online II Sinon 1/7 scale figure by Kaitendoh has finally been revealed with painted prototype photos. The figure is sculpted by Del standing 33 cm tall with her sniper rifle, and is about 23 cm tall without it (figure body). Sinon is listed for a price of ¥12800 and with release date set to August 2015.
Definitely worth a mention are the pose and expression of Sinon. Shes sculpted in a dynamic pose like if she was in the middle of a super badass action, with her Hecate II held with both her hands and complete of her secondary weapon, Glock 18C, placed behind her back in its holster.
On Sinons face theres a very determined and a little scary expression, suiting the character very well and giving the figure an overall strong feeling matching the SAO heroines personality.
At this point pre-orders for Sword Art Online II Sinon shouldnt take too long to open and, in the meantime, we can take a look at the figure with recently released painted prototype photos.

Review: Grisaia no Kajitsu Suou Amane 1/6 by Kotobukiya
Series/Origin: Grisaia no Kajitsu -LE FRUIT DE LA GRISAIA-
Manufacturer: Kotobukiya (sculpt by Kamenoko, ko_nen)
Classification: Scale
Character: Suou Amane
Version: N/A
Size: 1/6 scale, 25.5 cm
Release Date: February 9th, 2015
Released in early February this year, Grisaia no Kajitsu Suou Amane figure by Kotobukiya is one of the few figures (precisely only three at the moment) dedicated to this character. The company proposes Suou Amane in a rather big scale, probably thanks to the fact that the figure is sculpted in a swimsuit, and in a relatively dynamic pose.
Kotobukiyas take at Suou Amane is a rather pleasing piece to own and watch, mostly thanks to the overall happy feeling the figure inspires in her frilly, white bikini while she plays with a green water hose, supposedly on the beach. The concept itself could be a little weird because of the water hose/beach combination, but still. This figure is actually lovely and able to add a touch of happiness to almost any collection.

Hey hey~ It's AmiAmi Otome again. I've given you one hell of a butler before, so today I'm changing it up with a butler to die for! Before we get to everyone's favorite flaming-red grim reaper, let's take a quick look at the previous ARTFX J Book of Circus offerings...
ARTFX J - Black Butler: Book of Circus: Grell Sutcliffe 1/8 Complete Figure w/ AmiAmi Exclusive Bonus [Kotobukiya]
Red is the color of fiery passion, and I am flaming!
Grell likes a good double entendre almost as much as he loves red! He was useless as a butler but certainly knows how to coordinate his own affairs♪
Now here's a case of the man making the clothes! This graceful pose brings out the best from his high-heeled boots and chic black trousers. I could learn a thing or two about how to be a lady from Grell myself(人´口`)!

Preview: Excellent Model MILD Portrait.Of.Pirates ONE PIECE CB-EX Boa Hancock 1/8 Complete Figure by MegaHouse
Meshi here, ready to deliver another heaping helping of figure previews! You say pompous, I say pure. No matter what you say about Boa Hancock you're sure to have a strong opinion! Today we're turning back the clock to before she stole the hearts of fans worldwide. Let's dig in!
Excellent Model MILD Portrait.Of.Pirates ONE PIECE CB-EX Boa Hancock 1/8 Complete Figure [MegaHouse]
Even at this tender age it's easy to identify the Snake Princess thanks to that forehead (and bellybutton).
This tiny figure stands at approx. 12.5cm tall but isn't small on craftsmanship. Just look at the attention given to this simple hairstyle and the knot in her top!
From the side the first thing you'll notice is the pronounced lack of her beloved B111s. Not that it's stopping her from sticking our her chest with pride.
I sense the workings of a whole new "Before They Were Stars of the Shichibukai" line with this baby Boa. Even her lovely long hair is more subdued here. While her body has gone through some radical changes her fashion sense clearly hasn't.
