Nendoroid Cecilia Alcott

Surprise! Nendoroid Cecilia Alcott from IS (Infinite Stratos) comes out of nowhere to accompany Houki.

DAT SPARKLING EYES! XD

The Alcott family’s earnest daughter and England’s IS representative.
From the popular anime ‘IS ‘ comes the second Nendoroid from the series, ‘Cecilia Alcott’! She comes with three different expressions including her standard expression, a expression with sparkling eyes and a slight blush and a smiling expression! She also comes with a sandwich and a basket as optional parts, allowing you to recreate lunchtime!

Her trademark rolled hair has been made to look just like the series, and even includes joints for some extra posing options – plus extra replaceable parts are included to recreate the running scene from the ending theme of the anime! Be sure to display her with the previously announced Nendoroid Houki Shinonono!

Similar to Houki, Cecilia will be made by Phat, scheduled for August release with a price tag of 3500 Yen.

Nendoroid Monokuma

Meanwhile, the evil-looking bear, Nendoroid Monokuma has also been available for pre-order alongside Cecilia today.

“Good morning everyone!! If you don’t buy my Nendoroid, expect punishment!!”
From the high-speed detective action game ‘Super Danganronpa 2: Sayonara Zetsubou Gakuen’ comes a Nendoroid of Kibogamine Academy’s self-proclaimed headmaster, Monokuma! He comes with both his standard expression and a laughing expression! He also comes with a number of extra parts to recreate the famous punishment scene, including sitting parts and a punishment button!

Enjoy posing him in your favorite scenes from the game!

The bear is slated for June release, bearing (pun intended) 3000 Yen price tag.

Nendoroid Petite x Mini 4WD: Mikoto Misaka drives Thunder Shot Special

I missed this one last week, but anyway, this should be a good news for any Misaka (and Tamiya) fans. Yep, Nendoroid Petite x Mini 4WD: Mikoto Misaka drives Thunder Shot Special has been available for pre-order since February 22.

A certain Misaka’s four-wheel-drive car!

Using specially developed parts, the Nendoroid Petite figures can easily jump into the Mini 4WD models and drive around! Each car is specially designed to suit the image and colors of the character that the car is designed for, and the figure mount is a cleverly designed battery holder! A set of stickers is also included with the Mini 4WD to add even more flair to their ride!

As you may have known, this is one of the products from the joint collaboration between GSC and Tamiya that was announced last year.

Nendoroid Monokuma is Previewed by Mikatan

Nendoroid Monokuma

Have you ever heard of a game titled Super Danganronpa 2 – Sayonara Zetsubou Gakuen? No? Me neither. But it does not stop GSC to create a Nendoroid out of the game’s character and the first result is Nendoroid Monokuma, who got a preview treatment by Mikatan earlier today.

The badass-looking bear will be carrying merely two expressions: standard and laughing face. Aside from those, he will also bring some body parts as well as a button and a hammer that are usually used for punishment time in the game.

Due to its lack of parts and accessories, Mikatan said that the Nendoroid will be priced at 3000 Yen and should be available for pre-order starting tomorrow.

Anyone interested to get this Nendoroid?
