The formidable community of artists who focus their attentions on Strike Witches contributes a conceptual Nendoroid version of Nazi Witch Gertrud Barkhorn here, perhaps saving Good Smile some work. Currently, we are only due Yoshika and Francesca…

Here we have a rather elegant figure rendition of Hime (Princess), the major character of supernaturally themed manga/anime Princess Resurrection (怪物王女 / Kaibutsu Oujo, or Monster Princess).

This optimally executed Nagato Yuki lolita version (the fashion tribe, rather than loli as such) looks set to become a classic, being hailed with less dishonesty than usual in the advertising copy as the “Ultimate Nagato”.

Noted artist Tsukasa Bullet (or Tsukasa Jun, associated with Range Murata) has contributed the design to a recent figure which has been attracting much attention; qipao/China dress wearing (and not wearing) character China-san, from the Spirit of Wonder OVA, features some rather striking cast off capabilities.

We’ve see some acomplished fan created Nendoroids previously, but this Jigoku Shoujo/Hell Girl Nendoroid goes the extra mile; you’ll notice that the creator has actually gone to the trouble of creating a completely authentic looking set of packaging (not for sale, it is said) for the figure… This is really fan made?

This interesting Shana figure has won over plenty of fans, but looks set to win over even more fans with the news that her cast off capabilities reveal a chest even flatter than Nagi’s, and looking by all accounts to be rather appealingly modelled.

By now now are probably thinking this is the perfect Shana figure, so do confirm this apprehension by viewing her in detail below.
