Merry Late XMAS from Everyone at HenshinHobby!!! Hope Everybody got a Lot of new toys for Xmas!!!
Now a New Gallery to celebrate!!! Poor Puck, Maybe Next Xmas..
Yes folks life is good.
This is labeled as the "Directors Cut" of the first episode. Why directors cut? Well the show hasn't technically aired yet and this episode is longer than your average episode by a couple of minutes but hey, lucky us for special previews right?
Enjoy this episode everybody as this is just a taste of the awesome that is to come.

Walk into a bar.
Actually no they don't.
I don't know that joke. Still here we have a figuAX gallery that have several (but not all) Go Nagai characters. All legendary in their own way. You got Devil Man, Sister Jill, Satan and others in 3D glory.
Sadly however, there is no Violence Jack.
Fan Favorite Actor Odagiri Joe is finally Immortalized in beautiful 1/6 scale form!!! Based on his famous role in Popular Detective Drama Jikou Keisatsu (Time Limit Detective) Kiriyama Shuuichiro (Played by Odagiri Joe) is a detective that has an interest in solving unsolved cases that are past the statute of limitations. A past time that he does without permission for his own uncovering of the truth. The Kiriyama 1/6 figure appears with his signature hairstyle, police uniform and even includes an inscale "I Won't Tell Anyone" Card. He is joined by a figure of the female lead of the show Mikazuki Shizuka who was played by Popular actress Asou Kumiko. This way you can have Kiriyama and Mikazuki solving cases together! Both figures will be available in July '08 for the price of 15,540yen (tax included)
As this is one of my favorite shows expect to see a gallery of them both at some point!
Yep, AMAZON RAH 220 is here!
Due out July 2008 for 10,290 YEN.
But I digress.
One of my all time favorite Riders is getting the DX treatment. He's awesome in so many ways but you just got to see it for yourself.
Yep it's time alright.
True I haven't paid much attention to the musician releases from Medicom. I guess it's because I'm not huge fan of the Rolling Stones. Actually I think they suck and it's sad a pathetic that Mick Jagger is 60something years old singing "Satisfaction".... something he said he'd never do.
But I digress.
But when it comes to Freddy Mercury? Yeah I'm there and I'm glad Medicom did my favorite version of him. For those who don't know him or what he sounded like just click the video below and be prepared to see what a REAL front man sounds like.
Here are some more images of Son Goku. I get more excited and excited with each picture. The outfit, hair and face look perfect.
Man I can't wait to do a gallery of him!!!
THE GODS LOVE ME!!
After updating some gut wrenching news about the upcoming Dragon Ball movie I needed something like this to make me believe in the forces of good again. Medicom has done just that by announcing that on deck for 2008 (July actually) is an RAH of Son Goku!!! This Son Goku looks to be based off the early Freeza arc (pre-Super Saiyajin).
There will be more images and a price point released within the next few days and whether or not this is a BM production of just Medicom solo effort but we'll get the answers soon enough.Just look at him, doesn't he look incredible? I still need to see more shots but man, they've nailed his look even down to the strands of hair he has sticking out.
2008 can't come fast enough!
UPDATE: Here we have a new image which is essentially an image of the ad that will run next month. The Price on him is 15,540 yen (136.25USD) and as mentioned before is due out July 2008.

NEW GALLERY UP!!! The Bust of the Millenium!!!!!!!!
One of the Hottest recent figure releases from MAX Factory and the 4th figure in their Kinu Nishimura Collection. Originally released as a Resin Kit (Aren't they all?) This Mai based on Nishimura Kinu's Artwork has definetly wowed many fans despite having so many different figures in the market. Safe to say, Mai Has become a staple in collections of Video Game Heroines. To Be Honest I've never been a huge fan of this particular artwork of Mai but The Sculptor Hamasaki Takeshi has done an incredible job bringing the illustration to life at the same time adding that special "touch" that has won me over. Now I'm all about this version, Enjoy checking one of the Finest Mai Figures released in years.
At least that's what it looks like according to the trailer. This is the KUNG FU DUNK movie which was reported here before many moons ago as a live action version of the staple 90's manga SLAM DUNK. From the looks of it this has JACK to do with the manga. Not that I didn't expect it but they really went the Shaolin Soccer route with this one.
I mean goddamn it's Shaolin Soccer with Basketball. Maybe Jay Chou's hair won't fly off his head when he slam dunks *ahem*. Screw it.
"Enjoy" the trailer.
So along with most ancient deities add Chow Yun Fat to the list of people that hate me. Great. For some reason Chow Yun Fat has agreed to play Muten Roshi for James Wong's upcoming movie Dragonball: The Quickening.
Why he's in it I don't know. Every actor needs a paycheck movie so I guess this is his. Or maybe both he and Stephen Chow lost some horrible bet and are forced to be a part of this movie.
Other than being the coolest man ever to complain about people not liking his rice I think he's one of the best actors out there. But hey, you gotta get paid right? That means I have to see this movie after all (hey I sat through The Replacement Killers and that was murder).
Since this is film is being shot in Mexico I figure I'd show you the Spanish version (as opposed to the original Klingon). Why would I do this to you? To make you feel the pain I feel.
FEEL MY PAIN!!!!
I have a soft spot in my heart for Final Fantasy, more specifically Final Fantasy VII. Maybe it's pure nostalgia to a simpler time I don't know but every time I see Cloud I can't help but smile a little bit.
Now while I'm pimping just Cloud this isn't an FF VII set. This set includes several mini-characters that span several FF games (sadly no evil octopus). Rinoa, Penelo, Van & Yuna are also represented in this set and they look great (especially Yuna).
Enjoy the Gallery and thanks for looking!
This is Shana from Shakugan No Shana. Like most anime shows, things aren't always as they seem and Shana is no exception. Sure she looks like a school girl she's no pushover.
And again this gem is from Max Factory.
Below is the first opening of the series just so you can have an idea of who she is (and what the series is like).
As you know I have my doubts about this movie and Stephen Chow being attached to this project doesn't ease any of those doubts. I could go on and on about how this looks, who's playing who (or what) but whatever. I have no faith in this at all.
At least he's wearing orange. That's one minor step forward for Dragonball kind right there (not enough to make up for the billion step backwards it's taken).
Images exclusively from the Spanish language movie website HoyCinema (which means Cinema Today) have recently appeared. I don't know much about the site itself but since the movie is filming in Mexico it might be worth your time to check it out every so often.
Click the image below to go to HoyCinema.
Certain statues, action figures, dolls, diecast can speak for themselves by their sheer quality.
This is one of those times. This is Mai Shiranui from Capcom Vs. SNK 2 from the skillful artists at Max Factory (This isn't a KOF statue as some have called it).
You know who she is so I'll just leave you with a little teaser.
Singer, actor, Heavenly King - All those words can be used to describe one person. A person of class and respect. However this isn't about Andy Lau, this is about Jay Chou (hey he's cool, seriously).
ENTERBAY in conjunction with Chou are doing a one-sixth. Jay will over see the production himself (I know, you were worried weren't you).
For those of you who don't know who he is check out the vid below. He's done a lot actually (and he is talented) but there is this sick desire I have to see a Mandarin hip hop video on this site. I don't even like hip hop to be honest but it's 2:41 AM and I feel like torturing myself.
Of course I would love it if one day, I don't know... ENTERBAY broke the news that they were doing a Donnie Yen one-sixth.
Until then here's Jay Chou.
And it's exactly as I felt it would look which is a good thing. Overall these images look great and get me more and more excited about this release. It's hard to tell what exactly is different with the proposed new body. I can't tell from these images. Oh well, I guess I'll have to keep speculating on this new BL-2 body.
Visually however it's so far, so good.
Enjoy the pics below.

I'm not a huge, huge fan of Aliens and Predators. I mean I was at one time but there's so much over saturation with A&P products that quite frankly bore the hell out of me. I mean I LOVE the FEWTURE ALIEN stuff but that was during a time when there wasn't that much stuff out there ALIEN wise. Years later I think nothing has equaled the coolness of the FEWTURE Alien products. But overall my excitement was in an all time low.
That crappy Paul W.S. Anderson AVP movie didn't help matters as it removed the balls from both franchise. I don't know how an experienced director can make an AVP movie that both comical and terrible but he succeeded. There's a special circle in hell just for him.
Still this new movie AVP2: REQUIM looks good. Hell it looks VERY good. Looks like the balls have been stapled back on the franchise (harsh image I know but work with me). So far everything I’ve seen looks ballsy and violent. Outside of money, violence is the international language and this movie is speaking my language. Check out the Japanese trailers below (follow the link) and enjoy the poster below.
JAPANESE TRAILERS -
Actually it's more of a Go Nagai thing than just a Devilman thing but couldn't think of a Go Nagai pun. Yep, well is dry on that one.
This is one of my favorite Trading Figure busts sets.It doesn't just have Devilman as Cutey Honey, Getter are accounted of as well. Expect this gallery soon.

This is El with Reideen. I can see how this can be misleading but this has nothing to do with a Super Robot of the same name. However this beauty can be the center of attention anytime!
This is an original character coming from the sculpting gods at Kaiyodo who constantly put out grade A stuff.
Enjoy the gallery folks!

Street Fighter IV is about seven months away which feels like an eternity. In October a teaser trailer was released and now we have our first screenshot of the game. According to 1up the gameplay is strictly 2D. We don't have a full roster of characters but that question will be answered in time (although it is fun to speculate).
Check out the first official screenshot of Street Fighter IV below!!

Last week I posted up the Megahouse Tomoe Mushamiko gallery and today I give you the Elina Gallery also from Queens Blade.
Needless to say other than the ability to remove her clothing this PVC statue also comes with one unusual yet awesomely Freudian accessory.
And please Only click on this if you are 18 and Over.
I'm not a huge fan of angst myself but I do have strong, strong nostalgia for this game. Back to a time when PS one ruled the world and I was living off pizza. Good times. Expect to see this Cloud and his buddies on this blog soon.
Now that I think about it I haven't seen "Knights of the Round" in years. Good thing we have youtube. And just like that the vid is right below. Oh yeah I should mention that it's a long one so let it load. ^_-
Oh.My.God. I'm older than the school the in game.
Now I'm depressed. I need some alone time.
Anyway get ready for her gallery.
