Nendo-corner: Quick news

Нендовед XDD

Йес ай эм

The new Strike Witch there is Charlotte "Shirley" Yeager. *inb4 Airplane references*

Thanks =3

Oh, great. So there's a new exclusive every month... I'm really starting to get pissed at all the stupid exclusives. ><;

Also, it looks like that Ika Musume is probably a petite too. I guess maybe she's next month's bundle?

Well, I think Ika will be a full-size nendo cause she's new character...but now when you mentioned it...hmmm...

Well, one would hope it would be a full nendo, but for now at least it doesn't seem so (I'm sure they'll end up doing one later). The face shape is more like that of petites, and her body is in a sort of twisted pose, which they really only do on petites.

I could be wrong, but it just LOOKS more like a petite to me.

I agree, her legs is an obvious proof, full-size nendoroids don't look like this...

Alright, now I'm just completely unsure on the whole Ika Musume thing:

The face shape looks more like a full-sized nendo in these pictures. If so, I'm ok with it. Sometimes I like to be proven wrong. :3 (but there do certainly seem to be a lot of production leaks on this one, or is it just me?)

Also, it seems like they might be using the soft hair stuff for this (like on FA Saber). Which is a very nice touch, but she'll probably smell a bit when we get her. :P

=^____^=
I'm not a fan of Ika Musume anyway, but I'd like to see a full-size nendoroid of her, maybe she will be cute enough to buy? =3
And what does soft hair mean?

I can't say I've gotten around to watching much of the show myself, but she is cute.

The best example of the soft stuff I'm talking about is on figmas. Figmas use this stuff a lot lately. It's the soft rubbery stuff they'll use on clothing and sometimes hair, like the hair on Dead Master and Sakuya, King Kazuma's jacket, most any figma with a short skirt, and some skirt panels on Saber. The only Nendoroid I have that's used it is Full-Action Saber (it's on her front tendrils). It makes sense to use it on Ika Musume, since tentacles are supposed to be wiggly. >w<

Ah, I see now, like BRS coat =)) Though I kinda doubt about soft hair nendo

Oh yeah, I guess BRS's coat does have some of it. I didn't notice until now. XD

Yeah, I kind of doubt the soft hair too but am remaining hopeful none the less. I'm hoping that maybe since most of her design is a bit plain, they'll do it as a gimmick to help her sell better.

I was thinking about if there is a chance they make her hair tentacles fully articulated? x) It would be smth really special

If they make them out of soft plastic they could just put wires in them to make them posable. I'm not sure If i'd like that though because it would make them more delicate.

Any examples of such figures? I can't imagine wires in plastic Oo

The only one I can think of at the moment is the Revoltech Alien's tail is like this.

As you said before, wires are fragile so I don't think it's possible =) Just a few ball-joints would be good =3

That would be really cool, but I really doubt it. I was also hoping they'd make Strength's tail posable but they didn't do that either. :< (not that I can see anyways)

Oh, are you talking about figma? I thought her tail was posable D:

Maybe I'm wrong again, I'd very much like to be. But every picture I can recall seeing had her tail in the same pose every time.

That does look more like a full sized nendoroid now. I'd love it if it turned out to be one.

I'm hoping for a full nendo too. I'm actually about sick to death of petites. >.>;

I dont really care for them either It's hard to display so many small figures of the same hight together. I only really go for them if they are in a nice set like the Vocaloids.
