Re: New Ani*Statue Winter Releases

I got all excited when I saw "Vampire" in the title imagining all sorts of blood-drenched goodness but oh well.... I guess there are people into this kind of stuff too.

Just wish there was some company taking care of us horror figure-starved fans of the late great Movie Maniacs, Now Playing, etc. (I am excited about NECA's Exorcist boxed set, just need MORE!)

New Ani*Statue Winter Releases

Dance in the Vampire Bund, So Ra No Wo To, and Bakemonogatari...

KANATA SORAMI ANI*STATUE

Coming to you straight out of the So Ra No Wo To franchise is the eager young bugler KANATA SORAMI. Dressed in her regulation olive army uniform complete with short pants and cute little boots, Sorami is captured as she walks jauntily and prepares to play her trademark bugle.

BAKEMONOGATARI



KANBARU SURUGA ANI*STATUE

From the anime series Bakemonogatari comes the third in a series of Ani*Statues, the basketball playing lesbian KANBARU SURUGA. Originally on the track team, Kanbaru attempted to use what she thought was a mystical monkey's paw to wish herself faster. A demon in disguise, the arm grafted itself to the girl's body, and she must learn to live with its presence. Practicing her moves, Kanbaru is seemingly frozen in the midst of a complicated exercise involving two basketballs. Sculpted by Hirotoshi Nakamura, Kanbaru stands just over 6 inches tall (1/8th scale) on a specially designed display base that also captures her second basketball in mid-air.

Available in January, 2011 priced at a SRP of $69.99.
