I'm beginning to think that we should have a dedicated section for news about figures, figurines and figurettes here on Animekon. And with some positive feedback from you guys, we just might... But for now, here's another "random news" about a select few figures scheduled for release in the following months.



By unanimous decision (it only took one vote, since my comrade is busy playing with his loli dwarf in Lineage II, but I'm sure he would agree), we I quickly decided that the hottest upcoming figure is the above version of Shana (from Shakugan no Shana) offered by Griffon - more pics of it here. We first spotted it among the many other zillions of figures showcased at Wonderfest 2008 Winter, and it was PVC love at first sight. It should be released in June 2008, at a price of 6,825 yen.

Next up, since I already confessed my latest obsession today, is a new Horo figure (from Ookami to Koushinryou) offered by Taki Corporation. It's releasing in April 2008 at an adequately spicy price of 9,240 yen, but I still haven't decided which one I'd rather have, between this and the other one from Kotobukiya.

And finally, a pretty random choice would be a Lala figure (from To Love-Ru), to be offered by Goodsmile in August 2008. There are literally dozens of more new figures I came across today on Heisei Democracy, which I'm sure you'll drool over as well - see the "News of the Day" links here and here. Do note that most of them are not safe for work, which is why I haven't included here this totally-hot, totally-NSFW and totally-naked Seyada Tara figure.
