Dengeki Hobby January Issue & Others

UPDATED: As promised, more updates on the posting you see as night, titled "Tamashii Web Shop Limited Merchandises". ^^

BB Senshi Sangokuden Shusou Doven Wolf is available on Hobby Search since 19th November.




In addition to that same demon-face shoulder armor, Shusou Doven Wolf shares another similarity with Kanpei Gundam: the runner for its main body is also from Ryuubi Gundam, just that it's in dark gray. Both Shusou and Kanpei are subordinates of Kan-U Gundam.

Furthermore, all their weapons can combine with each others' ^^


BB Senshi models may be small, but they are really fun ^^

Dengeki Hobby Web has posted several scans for the upcoming January issue, and as predicted, Gundam Rasiel is in the center of the spotlight.





Useful coverage on how to upgrade the kit's articulation.




Also from Dengeki Hobby, Gundam SEED Frame Astray Vol. 2 will be released on November 26th at 1,365 Yen (inclusive of tax). It's compilation of all the nice Gunpla work from the series in previous volumes of Dengeki Hobby.




* Vol. 1 was out sometime ago, priced at 1,260 Yen (inclusive of tax).

Speaking of S.I.C. Limited Kamen Rider Den-O Rod and Ax Form, a review on this bundled kit from Hima-toy:







Too bad Kintaros and Urataros Imagin are not included, :( but at least two Plat Forms are included, so you can post both Rod and Ax forms at the same time.
