The Wonder Hobby 9.5 event, which is currently ongoing till today at 5pm (Japan Time), have already tempt people with some beautiful figurines.. Well, there isn’t any new figurines that were showcased during Wonder Hobby 9.5 since it is just a re-run of the Wonder Hobby 9 which some people didn’t have the chance to attend..
The event was held at Hirose Event Hall near JR Akihabara Station.. Well, there is no hurt in taking a look at those wonderful figurines/nendoroids/figmas, some current and upcoming ones such as this Black Rock Shooter.. xD
As quoted from Jon (Wcloudx),
The difference is that, this time, you are allowed to take photos of the items that weren’t allowed previously, not all of them ^^; Also this time, they managed to display some of the new figures in full colour, which was still unpainted during Wonder Hobby 9 (See last picture below) ^^
Well, I will let you take a look at the rest of the pictures.. Enjoy!!
Apart from just the figurines, Good Smile Company (GSC) also showcased the “Di:Stage”, a stage set that allows any users to create battle scenes using figmas in so many different ways.. Well, its somewhat better than just using the standard figma stands.. xD
Good Smile Racing (GSR) also displayed some of their new products such as the new Kagamine Twins stickers for anyone who wished to do a mini-Itasha on their miniature vehicles just like the Hatsune Miku version which was released a few months ago..
Max Factory also have an interesting stuffs on display, their new figma accessories and clothings which was already shown in Wonder Hobby 9..
I am looking forward to these 5 new clothings for any kind of figmas, excluding the Lucky Star characters due to their head size being slightly bigger than standard figmas..
Max Factory also collaborate with FREEing to create 3 nice-looking vehicles just for figmas, the bicycle, the scooter and the Segway..
There are also new accessories for figmas as well.. Wonder how they will fit well with the figmas.. -_-;;
Now, back to more pictures of figurines.. xD
Ok, I dunno what does a Llama have to do with figurines.. @_@
Figma Kagamiku, another highly-anticipated figma which alot of people wished to obtain..
Well, this is one of the figurines that was previously not painted during Wonder Hobby 9 but was done just for Wonder Hobby 9.5.. This figurine is a 1/8 scale Sakurai Kanade from Candy Boy by Good Smile Company.. Looks very beautiful indeed..
For more pictures of the event, you can view them from these sources, Akiba Hobby and Amiblo.. I hope to see more wonderful pictures from the event itself which will end today.. Thanks to Jon for the info about this event.. xD

Okay, the Figma di:stage is definitely a must get.
@ Zhlink: Yup, it will be great to utilize the di:stage when it is out, not to mention the figma vehicles.. They look so cool.. xD
