So you have not convinced yourself whether or not to pre-order the limited and exclusive Bakemonogatari Premium Item Box? Well, let us help you to make up yourmind … by showing some official photos of the chibi-sized crab girl. XD

As you can see in the pic, Nendoroid Senjougahara Hitagi will come with two expressions, a ponytail hair, as well as plenty of her signature stationaries.

So … what do you think?

Well, it looks like another improved re-release is in the pipeline, as Nendoroid Miyafuji Yoshika: 1945 version made her first appearance in the latest hobby magazine scan.

She has the same expressions and optional parts as the first release back then in 2009, but her Striker unit will be based on the design from Strike Witches 2. Oh, and she might also have the new faceplate system. This Nendoroid will be priced at 4000 Yen and scheduled for September release – which is pretty doubtful since it is Phat Company who will be in charge of this Nendoroid.

Moving up the right side of the magazine scan is our long awaited Nendoroid Feyris Nyan Nyan from anime/game series Steins;Gate. She is fully colored and … oh my! It is an overload of cuteness! … I mean, look at her twintails!

*ahem* Anyway, she will have three expressions, and … a plate of omu-rice? She will be priced at 3800 Yen and I guess she will be available around fall. Cannot wait to see her official announcement soon~

The second part of the magazine scans contain some article about Nendoroid Morizono Ricca from Da Capo III, Nendoroid Sonic who seems to be getting a re-release, Nendoroid Petite Takamachi Nanoha and Vita.

… and last but not least is the prototype of Mr. Tony Stark in his 42th metal suit, albeit in Nendoroid form. Yes, Nendoroid Iron Man Mark XLII is based on the recent movie Iron Man 3, and this time, the Nendoroid will also include Tony’s head swap, not just his expression.

So … what do you think, Nendonesian? Which Nendoroids are you most excited for?

We have been teased over and over in the past few months, but finally, Nendoroid Senjougahara Hitagi from Bakemonogatari has been fully painted and ready to be pre-ordered as a bonus in Bakemonogatari Premium Item Box, released by Kodansha.

Aside from the Nendoroid, this bundle will also includes:

• Isin Nisio original novella arc “Hitagi figure”
• Original illustration poster by VOFAN, Akio Watanabe, Hajime Ueda
• Original illustration can badge by VOGAN, Akio Watanabe, Hajime Ueda

Bakemonogatari Premium Item Box is priced at 5985 Yen and scheduled for mid-November release.

It seems that she will also get her ponytail as well! (*°∀°)=3

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian?

I think this week should be labelled as “Idol Week” as there are another idols getting the announcement too – Nendoroid Petite: Love Live! ヽ(*ﾟдﾟ)ノ

Kousaka Honoka, Sonoda Umi, and Minami Kotori will have both their school uniform and stage costume.

They will be available for pre-order as a box of eight (3 Petites with stage costume + 3 Petites with school uniform + 1 random Petite + 1 secret Petite) or purchased as blind boxes.

Nendoroid Tamura Yukari has been announced a few days ago, and now she gets a page of her own in GSC’s product listing.

The 300th Nendoroid – Nendoroid Hatsune Miku 2.0 is scheduled to be start shipping next week, so as usual, Mikatan has received the production sample and decided to review the milestone Nendoroid.

Oh my goodness!!! It’s too cute!!!! ╭(° ﾛ °”)╯

The new, post-300th faceplate system will allow us to change Nendoroid’s faceplate without ruining the pose. The lower half of the faceplate (the one that is connected to the neck joint) will be separated from the rest of the faceplate. It seems like a pretty clever idea to minimize the risk of breaking our Nendoroids’ neck joints – a common problem that has been plaguing most Nendoroid collectors.

One of the main concern regarding the new faceplate system is about its backward compatibility, and Mikatan confirmed that it is backward-compatible. Yay! \(≧∇≦)/

Old and new Miku swapping faceplates!

The inner cardboard box can be used as a diorama (taken from Miku’s room in the 3DS game Project Mirai) and it also features special fold lines that allow you to pop out a bed and shelves in the room. Cool! (*°∀°)=3

There are a few more tweaks in the #300 Nendoroid, so kindly visit Mikatan’s blog for further details about this lovely re-boot of Nendoroid Hatsune Miku. ‎( ◕ ‿‿ ◕ )

Nendoroid Itoshiki Nozomu 1.5 from (Zoku) Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei is finally getting the re-release that has been promised since almost a year ago.

I’m in despair! I’m in despair over being rereleased!!

Nendoroid Nozomu Itoshiki is being rereleased in the new Nendoroid format introduced from No.300! The super negative teacher with a pessimistic view on everything is back once again, looking just as cute as ever in Nendoroid size!

He is posed wearing his characteristic Japanese style clothes, with both his scarf and bag included. He also comes with a despairing expression and an impatient expression to bring out his personality even more! The symbolic rope to hang the poor teacher is also included for some rather unique poses.

Yep, as you might have known, this is one of the few Nendoroid that offers a different color option – not to mention that it is not available as limited/exclusive product!

So, if you prefer the color option chosen by the manga author, Kumeta Kouji, then you can pre-order the Nendoroid Itoshiki Nozomu: Kumeta Kouji Color version.

I’m in despair! I’m in despair that I’d be released in this color!

To celebrate the rerelease of Nendoroid Zetsubou-sensei, a special version featuring colors selected by the original manga’s author, Kouji Kumeta, is being released as ‘Nendoroid Nozumu Itoshiki 1.5: Kouji Kumeta Color Ver.’.

It might not be the same Zetsubou-sensei you’re used to, but the colors were selected by Kouji Kumeta himself! The Nendoroid itself is exactly the same as Nendoroid Nozumu Itoshiki 1.5 – just the coloring is different.

Each of them will be priced at 3800 Yen and scheduled for September release.

You will also get a limited Nendoroid More: Clip Stands 1.5 in special orange color, if you pre-order him at Good Smile Online Shop, that is.

Well, what do you think, Nendonesian?

It has been nearly 8 months since the first generation of Nendoroid More stands are previewed by Mikatan. Within that duration, I am pretty sure that the team behind this project have received enough feedbacks to refine and improve the stands, and now they are going to release it with “Version 1.5″ tag.
