  • Remember when Dengeki announced two figures of Miyuki Shiba from Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei? Don’t worry, I didn’t either until I saw this post. But wow, here she is! Sculpted! Well, one of them is sculpted–the clothed one. ASCII Media Works will be producing her, and they sure did a bang-up job on the sculpt. Just kidding, it kind of looks like she’s wearing a potato sack. Wow, what amazing clothing details. Good job. I must admit that her base is awesome, but other than this it’s pretty much the most generic anime figure ever. You picture PVC, you picture this dull figure. But, um, she’s 1/7 instead of 1/8, so she has that going for her. [via Dengeki]

It means extra features (garage kit roundup and wishlist) on top of, well, the event coverage and we have three reviews to work on this week! So when I remembered scans were tonight I nearly cried. For real, ask Stephen. So, let’s just dive right in. Wow, such figures! So PVC! Wowwwww! Maybe I’ll just do every post in Shibe…
