[ figure of interest ] caster / tamamo-no-mae

character : Caster / Tamamo-no-Mae

series : Fate / Extra CCC

producer : Phat ! Company

official page : [ click ]

what else can we say ? those gloriously juicy pair of nikus are very captivating indeed, and we find it hard for us to divert our attention [ and eyes ] away from them. sasuga tamacchi.

anyway, phat ! company has once again set their interest into producing yet another figure of our dearest beloved tamacchi, to our greatest joy of course, and man this sure is another figure we would like to put onto our shelves despite the very minor issue we're having with the facial design for our pvc tamacchi here. but then again we could certainly live with that, so there'd be no big deal there.

clad in her alternate gosurori outfit which can be seen in the sequel game released just recently, there's really aren't much differences in this version of tamacchi figya compared to the version previously released by phat ! around last year [ save for the wardrobe change of course ] - almost everything else is just within the similar scope of quality as the previous version was, and so if you're already happy with the original tamacchi you had bought from then, than you're might probably going to love this one just as much as well.

slated for a november 2013 release, this gorgeous gosurori tamacchi is currently available for pre-orders for the price of 8800 yen, inclusive of tax.

[ figure of interest ] momo belia deviluke

character : Momo Belia Deviluke

series : To Love-Ru Darkness

producer : Max Factory

here at +ophanium, we were so damn glad to see maxfac outdoing itself with this highly captivating, moetastic figure of our great harem savior momo-sama, clad in what referred to as 'a risqué bridal outfit' [ quoting the maxfac itself ], the exact design of which itself is basically based on the cover artwork for this official to love-ru darkness artbook here. 

her sculpt work, for one, really did well in highlighting the extra-delicious curves of her fantastically dynamite figure [ which, of course is her most defining asset ] - really, really outstanding piece of work here, we must say. also, part of her outfit is made of transparent material so to add in more visual depth into her already fantastic design.

standing at approx. 250mm in height, momo-sama's slated for a november 2013 release, and is currently available for pre-orders at the price of 9800 yen, inclusive of tax.

a very cute and sexy mashiron figya from griffon enterprises, set in a very inviting pose enough to make our hearts go mega-doki doki. as far as we could say, this one definitely is a do want-class item.

LOWEST PRIORITY
description : being the lowest priority set, these series risks themselves of being deported to the on hold / dropped list based on their respective performance[s]. however, we'll still be giving them minor justice by forcing ourselves to keep on watching them just to fill in the void left in-between the release of new episodes of the two priority set above.

FAQ

Q : do you really watch all those listed on your watchlist above ? A : yes. well usually i would break down my aniwatch session into two; the weekly episodic watch and the complete full season marathon by the end of a series' run. at the start of a season block, i would often took my time and give each of these series' first / pilot episodes a try before i decide whether to put them on my weekly watch or the full marathon watch session, depending on their performance as well as the state of balance between the genres offered within a season.
