Nendoroid Miyafuji Yoshika: Shinden version

Well, it turns out that the Nendoroid Miyafuji Yoshika is an entirely new release! She will have the new post-300th Nendoroid spec as well as the rear-plug stand for more posability.

Taking off with updated equipment!

From ‘Strike Witches 2’ comes a new Nendoroid of the highly requested Yoshika Miyafuji, using the new Nendoroid specifications from #300! She is the same cute Yoshika as before, but the overall Nendoroid design and coloring of her guns have been reworked.

Her Striker Unit is the new ‘Shinden’ unit that featured in the later episodes of the series as well as in the movie and she also comes with the Zero-Type 22 Aircraft Cannon. The propellers can be swapped out with the previous version for even more play value, and of course her dog ears and tail are included as before!

Nendoroid Miyafuji Yoshika: Shinden version from Strike Witches 2 will be priced at 4000 Yen and scheduled for September release. Oh, and yes, she will be handled by Phat Company, similar to the old Yoshika. XD

The ghostly gardener of Hakugyokurou.
From Shanghai Alice’s popular game series, the “Touhou Project” comes a Nendoroid of Youmu Konpaku – the ghostly gardener who serves Yuyuko Saigyouji.

As she also serves as Yuyuko’s guardian and sword instructor, she also includes both of her swords: the long bladed Roukanken and the shorter Hakurouken, as well as a ghost to float around her. She also includes a total of three expressions, including her standard face, an angry face and a face with closed eyes. A large variety of parts allowing you to recreate all sorts of situations!

The magazine scan

The magazine scan

After Nendoroid Annelotte (Queen’s Blade Rebellion) went for pre-order last month, the usual “how will the 2P version look like?” thought crossed on my mind.

Thankfully, I don’t have to wait long, as Nendoroid Annelotte: Dark Knight version made her debut in this month’s Dengeki Hobby Magazine. Interestingly, she does not bear the 2P version remarks that have been the case with the previous alternative versions of Nendoroid from Queen’s Blade. XD

*ahem* I have to say that she looks really gorgeous with those red eyes, elven’s ears, and a glittering golden equipments. I’m totally sold, FREEing, good job! ^^

Anyway, it seems that she will be available as a limited and exclusive product, as usual, with a price of 3500 Yen. The evil-looking lady will be released sometimes this year.

Meanwhile, Phat Company‘s Nendoroid Gertrud Barkhorn from Strike Witches series gets another highlight in the magazine scan. This time, she brings along her Striker unit and shares a few new poses with us.

(Un)surprisingly, she is still uncolored, eventhough it is already more than a year since the first time we saw her. At least she got a release schedule, albeit a little vague: Autumn 2012. XD

Note: Oh, and while we’re at it, how are our Disgaea duo (Flonne and Etna) doing there, Phat-san? Hopefully you don’t plan to cancel abandon forget them, because some of us have been patiently waiting since you showed them to us last year. XD

Well then, what do you think about it, Nendonesian? ^^

(Thanks for the news tip, Jeff Teo!)

Well then, see the photos after the break. XD
