Paris Fashion Doll Festival 2013
Pictures from the Paris Fashion Doll Festival are coming out and I'm in the process of getting permission to repost them on this blog. Keep checking back for more as I add them.
The Sybarite doll, Gateau, from collector Lilianaamigita:
She is a winner in every way. Gorgeous face, stunning outfit. There's nothing I don't love about her.
Next from Nina-chan who apologized for the quality. We don't care about quality; just feed us pictures and our imagination will make up for the rest! We appreciate any and all pictures that help us be a little part of the event.
Here is a link to a blogger who has posted the Silkstone:

WhiteDove has been busy this time around on the Plush Compilation! In addition to the Dr. Whooves we see up in the header image, there's also Queen Chrysalis, and both Filly Twilight Sparkle and Alicorn Twilight Sparkle that she's created. In addition to her work, there are also some adorable shoulder ponies that were created, one of which was Rarity and I want her badly.
The telegram Scootaloo is especially cute as well, and I adore the spy mission Fluttershy plush. Flim and Flam even made an appearance this go around! Be sure to head on over to Equestria Daily to learn more about the artists who created these great plushies.

Diamond Select doesn't hold back on new Ghibli merch
I don't believe Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki need any sort of introduction here. There's probably very few of you out there who haven't seen or at the very least heard of one of their many animated masterpieces. As anime studios go they've probably got the highest profile in the world, thanks a lot to Spirited Away winning an Oscar back in 2003. Merchandise sales have always been good for them, though much of it has been sitting in Japan with very little available at retail in the west. Diamond Comics Distributors and Japanese distributor BENELIC are ready to fix that with a new line of Studio Ghibli products.
Follow me after the jump to see the full selection that blurs the line between whimsical and practical. Many of which will be available as soon as next month!

Pre-order this shiny new Golden Darkness
Despite the harem filling the cast of To Love-Ru, the order of the day seems to be still more Golden Darkness, this time brought to us by Vertex. I can't say I'm surprised, though. Nanoha's Fate is certainly an appealing character, and it stands to reason her doppelganger here would have the same aesthetic attractiveness.
I'm still not a big fan of the "lolis in school swimsuits" cliche, but it's hard not to be drawn in all the same. Vertex has crafted an attractive pose, deviating from the norm a bit with top shrugged half off and one foot slightly raised. Naughtier minded viewers will also certainly notice the slight tug at the bottom of her swimsuit, an admittedly nice touch when compared with the many, many designs that lay flush against the character's figure.
I can't say I'm too familiar with Vertex, but as a fan of Golden Darkness I find her a little difficult to pass up. She certainly may be worth forking over the ¥7,280 when she arrives this May.

[NSFW] Mazinger's Sayaka is a bit tied up at the moment
With the ongoing popularity of the ancient Mazinger series, it should be little surprise to see heroine Sayaka Yumi showing up in PVC form at some point or another. It also shouldn't be too surprising to see her caught up in such a predicament either, given creator Go Nagai's total disregard for modesty in any form.
Given the full name of Artemis A, I'm assuming she's supposed to be in one of her robots' cockpits, though if this is the kind of thing Mazinger pilots deal with, I might have to say to just leave Earth to the villains! Still, she doesn't exactly seem to mind the situation at all, and amiami Zero's captured the classic feel of Go Nagai's artwork rather nicely.
While it may be straying a bit too close to tentacle porn for some, I have a feeling any Go Nagai fan isn't going to mind in the least--so you'll want to keep an eye out for her June release and be ready to fork over about ¥9,500.

Pre-order these Komeiji sisters by Griffon Enterprises
What's sweeter than one cute Touhou girl? Well, if you answered "two" cute Touhou girls you may want to check out Griffin Enterprises latest sculpt of Satori and Koishi Komeiji by Griffon Enterprises.
These are not as detailed as Griffin’s previous releases of these ladies. Still, there is something very heartwarming about the whole scene and I love the colors that are used. Though cute, these yokai ladies pull off the quirky too with their their "Third eye", they are those red or blue things you see hanging around their chest. They create a neat effect and I like how they have those strands that wrap about and loop into shapes. In particular Koishi's, pictured right is very cute how it loops into a heart shape.
Speaking of heart shapes, these two ladies are sculpted standing atop a heart shaped base. I really think this is a cute touch, but kind of wish that since Griffon went so far as to sculpt a combined base, that they had these two sisters holding hands or something, that would have made this figurine super cute to me, but it still is good.
If you’re interested in these ladies you won't have to wait long. They should be shipping out in late May of this year. However they do come with a steep price tag of about ¥10300.

"Game On" @ 1AM SF - featuring makes from Carson Catlin & We Become Monsters
“GAME ON” is a videogame-themed group customs show launching a 1AM SF on March 22nd (exhibiting thru April 20) - with the show featuring a gamut of disciplines from graffiti art, street art, traditional paintings, drawings, custom vinyl toys. Artists participating include Vogue / Jesse Hernandez / Frank Kozik / Monty Guy / Robert Bowen / Sam Rodriguez / Pemex / Satyr / Nate1 / Christopher De Leon / Mike “BAM” Tyau / Estria / Tim Diet / Goser / Toro / Ardabus Rubber / JC Rivera / Igor Ventura / Carson Catlin / Grimsheep / Mark Troup (Gomi) / Rsinart / Clark R / Chris Moore (We become monsters) / Timbone / Sekure D.
Today we get to take a closer look at two Artists' work for the show, featuring Carson Catlin (memakepretty.com) and Chris Moore (We Become Monsters):
"I was recently asked if I would participate in the "Game on" group show at 1AM SF. I jumped at the opportunity and whipped up these two guys. Brothers is a reticulated Mario and Luigi. They will retail for US$500 a piece or you can get both for US$900." ~added Carson
"In a world where flowers can let you spit fireballs, and mushrooms can make you grow instantly or even gain an extra life, eating the wrong mushroom can have terrifying effects."
The piece is titled "Ate the Wrong Mushroom" and is sized 9 inches tall with base (Removable base, articulated / removable head) and made on a 'We Become Monsters' resin figure "The Hell?" - which is an unreleased, so "this is somewhat of a debut"! - and with acrylic, Epoxy, Wood, on a vinyl Mario 5 inch figure (the Hat), plastic eyes.
