Damn Bioware charging $10 more for the exclusive and it doesn't even come with different accessories! I'm pretty sure the Bishoujo Cdr Shepard Exclusive cost the same as the original plus the added bonus of a different gun.
Bought it like a dummy because I really like Tali.

Yeah, my WW Link is good enough for me.
This one has cool accessories though!

The exclusive is going to skyrocket in price, though. Good call.
I managed to hit the "save for later" button before checking out on AmiAmi because I needed to save money. But now I'm tempted.....
thanks for the heads up. the exclusive has a good color variant. preordered the normal one from AmiAmi.

Nendoroid Snow Mikudayo-
Chilled
Mikudayo-!
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Today Im going to be taking a look at this figure that went up for preorder today
Nendoroid Snow Mikudayo-!
Ooooohhh!! (´□｀｡
The mysterious Mikudayo- that people fall in love with before they know it is being released in a snow version!! ☆
- Previous Mikudayo- Figures -
☆ Nendoroid Petite: Mikudayo-
★ Nendoroid Mikudayo-
★ 1/8th Scale Mikudayo-
☆ Nendoroid Sakura Mikudayo-
But anyway, lets get back to todays snowy version! ♪
As you might expect from the name, this Mikudayo- has all sorts of relations to snow! (｡･ω･ﾉﾞ
In addition, her miniskirt, arm covers and rather plump boots have all been given a shiny silver coating!! ε=(｡・д・｡
The same thin and flappy twin-tails that fans have come to love have been coated with beautiful snow flakes, also a lovely silver color!
But anyway, lets move onto her optional parts!!

Nendoroid Ooyodo
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I spent some time playing table tennis during my Summer break which has left me with really stiff thighs and by some time I mean about a total of one hour. I guess this shows just how unfit I am at the moment !
Anyway, today Im going to be taking a look at
Nendoroid Ooyodo!
Oooooh!! (●´ω｀●
The light cruiser that was specially designed as a flagship, Ooyodo is joining the Nendoroids! Her lovely long black hair and blue headband not to mention the gentle eyes behind her bottom-only framed glasses! All the details that make Ooyodo herself have been faithfully shrunk into Nendoroid size!♡
Her rather unique skirt that shows off some thighs has also been faithfully preserved!
Personally I also love the creases in her skirt, as well as the armor on her legs!
Not to mention the huge seaplane hangar on her back!!
△The top of the hangar even features small yet detailed radars and towers!♪
The hangar has two lanes and even allows the included two seaplanes to be stored inside!!
Anyway, lets take a look at her other expressions! (｡･ω･
Just as planned!
A smiling expression just brimming with confidence!
Those eyebrows and the V-shaped mouth are so cute! ♡
The standard expression from the first few photos and this expression definitely both bring out a rather different side of Ooyodos personality! (๑̀ㅂ́
Also note the catapult to launch planes on her arm you can even see that one of the planes is connected and ready for take off!!
Aim, and FIRE!
She also comes with a more serious combat expression!
Combined with the included shooting effect parts you can recreate some epic naval warfare! She also comes with bent leg parts that allow for more dynamic looking poses! ♪
By the way, the hangar on her back is connected with a double Nendoroid joint that attaches to her hips! This makes it easy to match the hangar parts with various poses! ★
△ The joint makes it easy to move the hangar in almost any direction needed! ♥︎
Nendoroid Ooyodo!

Nendoroid Link: Majoras Mask 3D Ver.
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I am without a doubt a Winter person. I miss Winter so much right now that I keep listening to songs about the Winter months !
Anyway, today Im going to be taking a look at
Nendoroid Link: Majoras Mask 3D Ver.!
Oooooohh!! (´□｀｡
From The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask 3D comes a Nendoroid of Link!! He is ready to use all sorts of masks to help him get through the mysterious world of Termina a world that is set to be destroyed if Link doesnt do something about it!
He is very different to the previously released Nendoroid Link: The Wind Waker ver. which had a more comical feel to it! This time around Link has a much more confident yet just as lovable expression! ♡
His hair neatly parted in the center as well as his characteristic pointed ears have all been transformed into Nendoroid form perfectly! (●´ω｀●
He also comes with his Heros Shield which is lovely and detailed, as well as his sword which can have the blade removed to be placed into the scabbard on his back for an alternate look!
Plus his classic green hat is separated into two parts the back part can be moved around for different poses allowing you to match even his hat to any scenes you may want to pose! (・∀・
For example, a combat pose might leave his hat fluttering behind him!
It makes for a more realistic action scene!
He also comes with special shoulder parts that are used above, which allow you to pose him swinging the sword around more effectively! ☆
But this is just the start of Links optional parts! He comes with all sorts of optional parts that help to being out the Majoras Mask universe! (｀・ω・´)ゞ
Lets take a look at each of the parts one-by-one! ♪
- Red Potion -
Anyone that has ever played a Zelda game will know the red potion! It is the standard recovery item for Link whenever he takes a bit too much damage! The bottle it is in is really cute, and the expression with the V-shaped smile also makes it look like he is drinking to a certain degree! (σ・∀・
Plus his yellow fairy companion Tatl is also included! ♪
The wings make use of a partially translucent gradient that really brings out Tatl just as he looked in game!
- Bunny Hood -
A useful item that makes you move faster when worn!
The item was always cute in game, but in Nendoroid size it has even more of a fairytale-like look that makes Link look so very adorable! (*´Д｀
He also comes with bent legs that allow you to pose him as if running! ♪
- Masks -
The mask that when worn turns Link into a Deku Scrub !
The Deku Mask ★
The strange round mouth area has been beautifully sculpted along with the black to brown gradient! The shades around the eyes have also been included to really recreate the sullen appearance! Its kind of strange and yet at the same time rather cute!
Along with the Deku Mask, he also comes with the Goron Mask and Zora Mask! (｡･ω･
Each of the masks has a little hole on the bottom allowing Link to hold it in his hand as you can see with the Deku mask above! ヽ(*・ω・
But there is still one more mask !
Majoras Mask!!
The sinister yet still so colorful look of Majoras Mask has been faithfully converted into Nendoroid head size, and can even be placed on Link as a kind of expression part! （/ω＼
By the way, the mask connects onto Link through use of a special attachment part that connects into his front hair part! The part is placed between his hair and then allows the mask to be connected onto the front of the expression!
△ It connects in very reliably! No worries about it falling off!
Even from the side you cant see the attachment parts, so it really looks like he is wearing the mask!!
His hair and pointy ears are still there and yet nobody can see his expression
You really can enjoy all sorts of fun and original scenes from the Legend of Zelda universe!! Be sure to add the cute hero to your collection! ☆
Nendoroid Link: Majoras Mask 3D Ver.!

Nendoroid Koujaku
Todays main feature
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Today Im going to be taking a look at ORANGE ROUGEs newest member who has his birthday today
Nendoroid Koujaku!
Ooooooohh!! (´□｀｡
Apologies for the wait since his announcement! The reliable leader of the Benishigure who also works as a hairdresser, Koujaku is finally joining the Nendoroids!
The long hair that covers his right eye, his intricate yet beautiful red kimono, gentle eyes and just overflowing manliness have all been beautifully transformed into Nendoroid size! (/ω＼
Just look at details of his outfit!! <○><○>
The bottom of the kimono not only has a lovely gradient effect, but also has all the flower patterns faithfully printed on at the bottom even in Nendoroid size!
The details of his hairpin and sword are also absolutely stunning!! ♪
Plus the sword is also included unsheathed as a separate part, so you can pose him showing off his strength and vigour with his sword drawn! ♡
Plus as you probably realized from the above he comes with alternate arm parts that allow you to choose between placing his arm inside the kimono, or instead through the sleeve! ヽ(*・ω・
The pose with his arm inside the kimono is definitely how many fans known him so it simply had to be included, but he still comes with standard arm parts for all sorts of other posing options! The short tied up bit of hair over his shoulder is also fitted with a joint allowing you to match it with your poses! ♪
Lets take a closer look for more detail !
All the strings, ornaments his sash and even the prayer beads on his wrists theyre all separately painted! The strings and kimono itself make use of a flat paint while the various baubles and ornaments have a glossy paint to create a shining appearance that really looks amazing! The prayer beads have a pearl paint applied to them which also looks fantastic!! ( ；∀；
Of all the characters in DRAMAtical Murder, Koujakus outfit probably has the most intricate details! Weve really done as best we can keeping his charms even when shrunk down to Nendoroid size, changing the paint colors and type even for smaller details like like the ornaments not to mention the prints at the bottom of his kimono! We hope to create the same level of detail on the final product Im sure all will go well!
I personally love the way the one finger on his right hand is slightly lifted!! (*´Д｀
Just that slight change makes me think he was just thinking about something that caused him to put strength into his arm it adds more to his manly character!! I dont know if everyone will fell this way, but it really catches my attention for some reason !
Anyway, lets move on to another part included with Koujaku
His sparrow AllMate Beni!! (๑̀ㅂ́
Even the cute geta sandals on his talons have been carefully sculpted!! If you balance him carefully you can even pose him in places like this!
His neck can also be moved from left to right for slightly different nuances!
Just having him nearby in any pose makes it instantly seem more colorful! ♡
By the way, even though his face is covered by his hair, the details of the expression including his other eye and the tattoos on his face are faithfully included! Be sure to take a look once he is in your collection! (｡･ω･
Anyway, lets move on to his other expression parts, starting off with his
Lovely smiling expression! ☆
Im pretty sure if anyone ever met me with a smile like this I would fall for them in a second!! Of course posing him smiling together with Aoba is great, but even just posing him alone looking upward makes for such a lovely smile to look down upon whenever youre feeling down!
Onto his third and final expression !
An embarrassed expression!
Note that there is an ever so slight blush in his cheeks!!
You can see he is trying really hard to hide his embarrassment and keep his confident expression!! Koujakus embarrassed expression is a rather rare sight but with the Nendoroid you can enjoy it whenever you like! (・∀・
It allows you to create scenes like this !
Parts to hold hands with Nendoroid Aoba!!
Holding hands just like when they were younger! As you can also see in the photo (although it got a little cut off), Koujakus base is a longer, rectangular base! Its the exact size of two Nendoroid bases placed together! ε=(｡・д・｡
This allows for easy posing together with the other characters!!
You choose to display him with Aoba like above, or perhaps instead with Nendoroid Noiz in a scene like below or with any other Nendoroid! ヽ(*・ω・
They look like they are provoking someone by showing off how unconcerned they are!!
Their personalities never really got along at first, but as Nendoroids they seem quite happy beside each other! Even from the back it looks like they are having an interesting conversation with each other! (-*)(,_,*)(-*)(,_,*)
As you can see above, you can also have Koujaku hold the sword in its scabbard! The hole it uses to connect to his back will be visible on the sword though!
Also note the pouch and tied up sash of his kimono! The attention to detail never ceases to amaze me!! ♪
Enjoy all the details of his outfit and various sides of his personality!
Nendoroid Koujaku!

even better it confirms that we'll get N in three months from now too

Does anyone remember how long it took for Red to get sold out? I just want to know if I can actually get some sleep that day or if I have to keep refreshing the page xD
I wonder if it'll be available on Amazon like Red was. Sucks that I passed on Red thinking that they would keep ample stock through the holidays.
Thanks for the heads up. Will be picking one up for sure.
Sweet, still don't think I will get her, but good that they are still doing US releases, so will look at checking out N then.
He was up for like at least 3-4 days I believe.
Also "More Nendoroid figures will be added to the Pokémon Center in the future, with plans to unveil a new character about once every three months."
Oh damn.

I wonder who will be next?
Also I guess the Yen is low enough to justify both my imports :x You never can be sure with what gets localized nowadays.
Nope.

Any idea when the Saitama Nendo pre-orders might happen?
I have a strong feeling it's going to be Dawn. Or at least that's what I want.
You're gonna take your Dianthia and you're gonna like it.
I think Iris might be more likely if they stick to a male-female rotation.
Dandy Crocodile

I'd love that! Do you think they'd pair him with Metagross or Latios/as?
It'd be Metagross. He doesn't even use Latios/Latias in the Champion battle.
Nobody likes Iris though.

well he beat the previous champion, so he does become it even if he discards the title like a second later
He can have Eevee.

The joint broke when I tried to adjust her pigtails. But I bought from Mandarake so they included replacement parts (which also give me an extra rod for the mic stand).
