I'm currently occupied getting a submission ready for FDQ.

Prepare for a treat with Hatsune Miku Halloween Nendoroid launch events
On the official Hatsune Miku Facebook page they've revealed two big east and west coast events for the USA of particular interest to us here at Tomopop. On October 11 and 12 the Los Angeles Center Studios will be hosting the Hatsune Miku Halloween Party event and exhibition. Meanwhile Wallplay in New York will be hosting the Hatsune Miku Universal Positivity art exhibit from October 9 to 19.
The big news is that these will both act as the US launch events for the upcoming Hatsune Miku Halloween Ver. Nendoroid figure! Based on stunning art by Suoh (seen above) this is going to be one heck of an eye catching Nendo. Aside from the one preview shot of the figure from behind we don't know a whole lot about the figure, but I'm sure we'll see more as we move towards the fall.
Looks like this figure will be a real treat! The only trick will be getting your hands on one as the'll only be available at special events.

Matty Collector to unleash Doomsday after all
After repeated insistence from Matty Collector that the company would NOT be releasing an "Unleashed" Doomsday in any way, shape or form because Club Infinite Earths tanked, Matty has announced that it will, in fact, be releasing that Unleashed Doomsday.
No price point has been announced, but he's slated to sell some time this Winter and will come in a window box diorama. Of course, my inner cynic is under the impression that Matty Collector intended to release the "Unleashed" Doomsday but held off on the announcement so the company would have an easier time moving the less-popular containment suit version. However, I'm just happy that we'll have an opportunity to get on our hands on this one.
Check out the gallery for an image of the Unleashed Doomsday as seen at a previous con as well as the previously leaked packaging (which may not necessarily reflect the final product).
