It would be nice if they were ever available to order somewhere but they are always show exclusives and sell out pretty quick. I gave up trying a couple years ago, the resellers would always be walking away with them by the time I got to the table.

No idea where you can order him from though. Sorry  Is it just my imagination or did the Anime style sofubi have a stronger showing this year than normal? Not complaining as I rather enjoy it, just making an observation. liquidsky wrote: Someone explain this to me: It puts the lotion on it's skin... I think it's just a captured Astro Boy figure. Pretty sure the locker was just for display.

 Re: WonderFestival 2012 [winter]
Goldar looks absolutely massive. What is the size? 2 feet or something?
Also and please let's not start the hype train (I'm hesitant to even post this and probably should not) anyone know if the new pinkish Butanohana Garamon debuted here?

The Goldar is here on their site but it is not available: http://dbk.fc2web.com/ There is also one on Japan Ebay for a mint.

 Re: WonderFestival 2012 [winter]
I can see why this table was empty when other tables were covered in toys. Easily the best pieces at the show hands-down. They have so much substance, come from a cultural perspective of developed characters and further a imaginative story based world, something I wish more toys had. Maybe if people who make new toys had more to offer than "buy my sculpt" it would be more meaningful to others.

Love these two. They look more like statuettes but still very cool.

This is from Hi No Tori or "bird of fire" - commonly titled as Phoenix - Her name is Komu. And it is indeed Osamu Tezuka. This figure was actually put out originally over 2 years ago WF 2010 with some other characters from the manga.
