eBay Today: Custom TMNT Dojo Diorama With Turtles
If you recall, early photos of Playmates' Nickelodeon TMNT figures showed the half-shelled quartet decked out with hyper-detailed paint applications that even included painted weapons. While the retail versions of the turtles didn't get the same paint treatment, artist and CTR reader Bret Newton took matters into his own hands. Bret's custom-painted ninja turtles and dojo diorama show just how great Playmates' sculpts are and how amazing they would have looked with a little booyakasha! The before and after pics are a must see, especially the ones of the "woodified" dojo dio.

Cu-poche Kousaka Kirino
Figure maker Kotobukiya was kind enough to let us raid their offices the other day and take photos of a few of their up n coming figures including Cu-poche Saber and the most gorgeous Sword Art Online Asuna.
Cu-poche is non-scale posable action figure series that was recently started by Kotobukiya. This new figure line features super deformed characters equipped with many points of articulations in the neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist, waist, knee and ankles. Magnets are implanted into the feet parts, so the figure will be able to stand firmly without relying too much on the arm-stand.
This time Cu-poche adds Kousaka Kirino from light novel/anime series Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai into their line-up. Cu-poche Kirino will come with three exchangable face parts, a cellphone, a school bag, as well as several optional body parts.
- Product Name: Cu-poche Kousaka Kirino
- Series: Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Wake ga Nai
- Scale: Non-scale
- Material: PVC, ABS, magnet
- Height: Around 110mm
- Spec: Pre-painted action figure
- Sculptor: Hideaki Oya
- Release Date: May 2013
- Retail Price: 3,500 yen
Head along to Kotobukiya for more info about Kirino.
There is a poll embedded in this article.
Looks cute to me! Look forward to getting my grubby mitts on these - maybe stick some on the fridge seeing as they got magnetic feet.
If you are interested in pre-ordering this figure then check out the following trusted online retailers.

Review > Vykron (Masters of the Universe Classics, Mattel)
When the designers behind He-Man first pitched the concept to Mattel’s upper management, their idea was that the main character would be put in different outfits and fit different eras. This was a common idea at the time, and one the designers would most likely have been familiar with from their own childhoods – the [...]
