Tsume-Art has just sent us a news update on the Zaraki Kenpachi high-quality statue ... which gives us the perfect opportunity to talk about him for the first time! The 42-cm-tall resin Kenpachi, limited to 300 pieces, looks amazing wieldng his zanpakuto. Like the Byakuya figure, this one's a bit expensive, too, and will likely be retailing for €339 after taxes. 

Unfortunately, it's already sold out on the Tsume-Art online shop and has been for a while, but the news update we were sent was to let us know it should be available at retailers who pre-ordered Kenpachi. We'll keep an eye out for shops that might have him in stock, but if you know of any, please feel free to let us know!

Artist Riusuke Fukahori has a pretty unique style. What looks like real goldfish or even real goldfish trapped in resin is actually 3D painting done by hand. He pours in resin – then paints a layer and pours in more layers of resin and more layers of painting until it looks eerily real … (the [...]

While not exactly having been impressed by the promotional posters so far going for MEN IN BLACK 3, this trailer males all the difference to me now, and I CAN NOT WAIT to watch it! Will Smith is back with Tommy Lee Jones (who has a Josh Brolin acting as a "younger K" in 1969) for more alien-hijinks. Just imagine this all came out of a black-n-white comicbook way back (which frankly was not as

Tonner Doll Company has revealed photos of their Rogue Tonner Character Figure. This 16" tall dressed doll will be limited to a run of 300 pieces. It's currently available for pre-order and priced at $159.99. Maybe the best female superhero that Tonner has produced? Thoughts?

Falcom and The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky fans alike, if Estelle Bright is one of your favorite characters from this PlayStation Portable title but the Nendoroid Petit version was too small for you, then you're in luck. With the second volume of The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky: THE ANIMATION out on DVD and Blu-ray, Mika-tan's blog has a preview of the upcoming Nendoroid figure based on Estelle's anime version.

I found the Nendoroid Petit version to be cute and I now find this twin tail lady twice as cute in standard Nendoroid form. I will have to agree with Mika-tan about Estelle's action face. Despite being in a fighting mood, she looks so cute. Speaking of fighting, Estelle will come with her rod and a set of arms to have her hold it one-handed or two-handed. Also included is her Orbment and Joshua's harmonica. A sad face is included to go with the harmonica but why would you want a sad face? I don't want to feel down when looking at my figures. An amazing accessory that also comes with Estelle is a fishing rod because Japan loves themselves some fishing mini-games.

Overall, another adorable addition to the Nendoroid family. Pre-orders for Nendoroid Estelle are set to start some time soon. Is anyone planning to pick her up? How many of you would prefer to see a static PVC figure of her instead? I know I would just for that hairstyle and twin tails alone.

A Little Bit on The MotorStorm RC Side: Vita owners, rejoice! MotorStorm RC will be available for FREE for a limited time starting tomorrow thanks to Scion. You’ll also get a Vita exclusive custom RC version of the Scion iQ (which Scion was rad enough to let me test drive a few months back).

This game’s been getting some pretty good reviews, so it’s pretty awesome to see Sony tossing it out to us for zero bucks.

So excited to say that I now have my very own Kooky plush! (Thanks Ken and Jen- you guys rock!) He's absolutely adorable. If you don't know who Kooky is, he is the hero of the the movie of the same title. It's a Czech puppet/live action film, and it is one of the most magical and creative films that I have seen in a long time. It's about a young boy whose mother makes him throw away his Kooky plush because she is worried that Kooky's stuffing will aggravate the boy's serious asthma condition.  Kooky then has to find his way back to his owner, who still loves him.

If you haven't seen this film, I highly recommend it! The character designs are amazing, and the film is pure magic.

If you are wondering where to get your own copy of the movie, or your own Kooky, the film's director Jan Sverak has plush and the movie (in PAL format), as well as the new making-of book (text in Czech) available to purchase on ebay. To find out more about the film, here's the link to the Kooky facebook fanpage.

I am busily creating new plush and haven't had time to post any photos, but I promise to reveal what I am working on soon! Until then, I will keep updating my blog with all the new additions to my plush collection.
