Solution for Nendoroid Hinagiku’s Face Plate Issue?

Face-plate-attaching problem on Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku

It seems that many customers who purchased Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku are complaining about difficulty on attaching/detaching the face plate off Hinagiku’s head. Yukiwo Ageta has just proposed a solution which might be able to solve that issue. Here is the translated tweet of Ageta-san:

If you buy from daisy Nendoroid, many voices will be asked to do difficult and tight face recombination. Because I like a harder material itself. Please try and hand-painted cream and toothpick grooves to receive portions of the ribs of the face. Much easier.

Yeah, I know that the translation is kinda messy, but I think I can get the general idea. Basically we simply need to smear some kind of hand lotion to a toothpick and put it on the plug holes at Hinagiku’s head, so that the face plate could slide into the head easily.

I have not received my ordered Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku yet, so I cannot confirm that Ageta-san’s solution would work. For you who have played with Hinagiku and got this problem, well, now you know how to fix it. ^^

Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku packaging

The packaging of Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku from Hayate no Gotoku series has popped off Yukiwo Ageta’s tweet just now. Yep, Max Factory‘s first Nendoroid is going to be released in a few days, after being delayed from last month’s release. With Christmas due this week, Hinagiku-chan would be a perfect gift for anyone; don’t you think so? ^^

Now where is my Nendoroid Dead Master? (≧∇≦)/

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition

I guess it has been expected that there would be some delayed releases because of the large variety of Nendoroid that due in this month. Well, I did not think THIS PARTICULAR NENDOROID would be delayed though. ^^;

As you can read in the title, yep, the release date of Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Absolute HMO Edition has been officially delayed to January 2011 – together with Nendoroid Mickey Mouse, while Nendoroid Dead Master and Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku are scheduled to be released on December 22 (from December 21 and December 24, respectively).

Miku HMO’s delayed release is really disappointing, at least for me personally. Well, I hope that her QC would be better with this delay though. What do you think about it Nendonesian? T_______T

Note: Complete release date for December 2010 can be seen on this page

Nendoroid Hinagiku Release Pushed Back, Tomoe Got Release Date

Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku

It seems like ~~Good Smile Company~~ Max Factory are having difficulties to meet the deadline for their Hayate no Gotoku Nendoroid releases. Nendoroid Katsura Hinagiku is their first Nendoroid to get her release delayed and I guess it will initiate a domino effect for Hayate and Nagi as well – hopefully it would not happen. Initially, Hinagiku-chan is scheduled to release on late November and now pushed back to December. ^^;

Meanwhile, Nendoroid Tomoe from FREEing will be released in-schedule as GSC has just posted a release date for her: November 15. Yes, that’s about a week from today so you’ll better prepare to complete your pre-order payment to have your latest Queen’s Blades Nendoroid ship as soon as possible. ^^
