 phoenix |  November 4th, 2010 Continue on the doll’s fashion swimsuit edition. This time is Tohsaka Rin in her red bikini. Rin’s swimsuit set (凛の水着セット) is release together with Saber’s swimsuit set by Volks. It was on sale during the Home Town Dolpa Osaka 6 held during the weekend of August 21, 2010. I tried my luck on Volks USA’s lottery for Home Town Dolpa Osaka 6 but I only got Saber’s swimsuit set. Failing to secure my Rin’s swimsuit through Volks USA, I had to use Yahoo Japan Auction to get Rin’s swimsuit directly from Japan. It turns out that after all the deputy fees and shipping, buying directly from Japan through auction is actually cheaper than buying from Volks USA. Come on Volks, this is such a simple clothing set, plenty available in Japan. I can’t believe that I enter the lottery for two and can only get one of them. Not to mention, now with only one small item, the shipping charge is nearly the same amount as the item itself. Had I known that, I would have just bought both from Japan directly. Much cheaper and faster that way. Well rants aside, here’s Rin in her sexy red two piece.

phoenix | October 30th, 2010 I have indicated in my post on Nendorid Hakurei Reimu and Kirisame Marisa that I have ordered Nendoroid Remilia Scarlet. Remilia Scarlet like the other Touhou Project Nendorids are only available in a very limited number of shops. And like other Touhou Project Nendoroids, none of the shop will ship overseas. So the list of shops that one can order Remilia from is Niconico Chokuhan, Animate, Gamers, and Tora No Ana. I got mine ordered at Animate back in April 2010. And now it has arrived.
Nendoroid Remilia Scarlet by Good Smile Company. (ねんどろいど レミリア・スカーレット). Original sculptor JUN (E.V.). Released on September 2010 with MSRP of ¥3,000.

phoenix | October 29th, 2010 Snow Miku is basically a repaint of the Nendoroid Hatsune Miku with some transparent hair parts. It is created in commemoration of the Snow Miku in the 61st Sapporo Snow Festival. A Nendorid Puchi version was released earlier but this is the normal Nendoroid size. It was an event limited release in February 2010 during Wonder Festival 2010 Winter. It was then available to order on the Good Smile Company Online Shop. But being Good Smile Company Online Shop doesn’t take credit cards as the payment method and they don’t ship overseas, I had to get my hand on this by using Tokyo Hunter. The price from Tokyo Hunter was actually very reasonable that I didn’t want to spend more time to find other cheaper ways.
Nendoroid Snow Miku by Good Smile Company. (ねんどろいど 雪ミク). Original sculptor Ageta Yukiwo (あげたゆきを). Limited released on February 2010, general release on June 2010 with MSRP of ¥3,000.
