Double Feature Figure Friday - Oshino Shinobu and Matsumae Ohana

Sometimes, there are too many great figures coming out at the same time for me to pick just one to feature.  This is one of those weeks, making this the first Double Feature Figure Friday.  We’re going to be looking at two different types of figures from different shows; a statue figure of the adorable loli Shinobu from Bakemonogatari, and the Nendoroid adaptation of the spunky waitress Ohana from Hanasaku Iroha.

Featured Figure Friday - figma Sengoku Nadeko

Starting this week, I’ll be running a weekly article on up and coming, out of this world figures about to be unleashed on the otaku masses.  I’m an avid figure collector, so I hope you’ll be able to enjoy these beauties as much as I do!

This week’s figure is the next in the much-anticipated Bakemonogatari figma line; just officially released this Thursday, the cursed snake girl Sengoku Nadeko.
