*ahem* Yes, I know that the last time I do the Random Gallery post was … umm … almost a year ago. Nevertheless, I do not think I will post this monthly, but I will try to post one when I come across some interesting Nendoroid photos. ^^

Anyway, this time’s gallery consists of mostly the newly released Nendoroid, such as Honma Meiko (Menma), Charlotte E.Yeager (Shirley), and Desert Army-san. Enjoy! ^^

The Nendoroid rendetion of Japanese racer Kobayashi Kamui is finally available for pre-order starting today, after being teased several times previously. Nendoroid Kobayashi Kamui will bring along his helmet (both wearable and non-wearable) as well as the sponsors on his clothes and helmet. Here is the description from his official page:

Overtaking all his opponents, with Japan’s dream resting on his shoulders!
The F1 race driver with an impressive track record, Kamui Kobayashi, is becoming a Nendoroid!

Even when shrunk down to Nendoroid size, the coloring and details on his helmet and racing suit have all been faithfully preserved based on their originals – even the sponsors names are included on his outfit. He also comes with extra parts that allow you to display him either holding his helmet, or wearing it – however you’d prefer to see him!

He is priced at 3500 Yen, and scheduled to be released on late February 2012. Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? ^^

Assume that WonFes is an exhibition event for us, figure collectors (read: consumers), then consider this “Hobby Product Maker Summer 2011” an event for the figure manufacturers. The products being displayed here are generally similar to what we have seen at the WonFes, and Nendoroid Charlotte E Yeager is among those WonFes-bound products as well. ^^

Nendoroid Kobayashi Kamui also made another appearance here. The famous Japanese F1 racer is spotted alongside two helmets, which appears to be the one that has been scaled down to Nendoroid-size for Kamui-san. ^^

Meanwhile, Nendoroid Minami Haruka and Kana from Minami-ke are missing in this exhibition, after being spotted as prototype at the latest WonFes. Gift has commented on the absence of Chiaki’s elder sisters, saying that both Nendoroid are currently getting painting finalization. Wha-!? So are we going to see them as a full-colored Nendoroid soon? ^^
