I'm predicting at least one of those two will be delayed, coz this is Alter, after all (I'm guessing Inshun, since Sora is only a recolour)...Just order both and try your luck...

White Sora's release date is supposed to be today...If there's more delays, I think it would've been announced by now...Optimistically, shipping should start early next week...?
As for Alter reducing their releases, I think its probably a good thing (mostly for my wallet )...Already ordered Mefmera, a few others still in consideration for early next year...

Not a big fan of this one...It seems like a second-tier ripoff of a (in my opinion) far superior figure...Getting Clalaclan is actually a cheaper option...But then again, maybe calling it a ripoff is a bit too much, considering both are from the Shining series...

I just think that when 2 figures by different companies and different sculptors look so alike, people tend to make comparisons...I don't completely hate Rosalinde though, I love the flowing hair, the top half of her armor, and the shield is pretty cool...Maybe if I didn't know the Clalaclan figure existed, I'd like Rosalinde more...

Alter's Mu-12...Damn, she looks spectacular... Apparently, the base also has LED lighting...Well, I think I can safely assume I absolutely CANNOT AFFORD HER...

The hair isn't the only thing blocking her eyes...

But lets be honest here, not many are gonna be looking at her eyes...

I have no idea how photography lighting works, but if the base LED is strong enough, wouldn't it offset the shadows caused by the fringes...? I'm sure thats a bad idea, but knowing you and your works, I'm sure you'll work some magic and figure out a way around it...
As for the price, I've already accepted the fact that I won't be getting this one unless it bins...

A-Plus' Sorceress seems to have somewhat normal sized boobs...??? (mind you,I'm just saying "normal" relative to her other figure with gigantic cans)
Shiro looks pretty cute, but somehow her head seems a little too big...Or maybe its just the hair...

Speaking of boobs...

Dear God, what the hell is this abomination...??? Definitely a worthy contender for Cattleya...

I think the next one proves that Vertex really likes em big,and not just boobs...

Looks awesome, but how the hell are you supposed to display this...? No scale yet, but even 1/8 should take up a lot of space...

Nine-tails fox FTW... Almost missed the katana and the little fox at first glance, nice touch...She looks splendid...

Not sure whether you should be asking this question, since in the end, you're the one who's going to be enjoying the figure...I don't think the opinion of others should matter...
That said, this is what I think... Quality wise, you really can't go wrong with Alter, but personally, I prefer the Penguin Parade version...The cheerfulness and energy really shows...

Dear God, this just cracked me up...

The seams at the shoulder do look suspiciously castoff-able...But don't get your hopes too high about seeing any bare boobs...From my experience, if there are no bare boobs in the source (anime,manga), the figure most probably won't have em either...

Nice siggy...Bunga ch*b*i FTW...

Didn't even realise she was painted (and already up for PO )...Wow, she turned out awesome...The flaming thigh-highs are especially hot... I've always been a sucker for Chinese dresses, and this is right up my alley...

Life-size figure of character from Expelled From Paradise... The "Do Not Touch" sign is definitely needed here...

Hmm, interesting concept...I like... Never heard of the company, Aspire, before though...More interestingly, she comes with an alternate face (and body )

My last order of 2014 (on the very last day too), and the first arrival of 2015... Next in line is Nanoha (gotta catch em all, right? xD)...

Amiami

Wow, thats a quick re-release...

When I saw the spoiler below the photo, I was half expecting the usual behind-the-scenes pics of all the elaborate props you used... I must say, this looks and feels very different compared to your previous projects... The more prop-focused ones were much more distinct, and I could probably tell 9 out of 10 times which photos were taken by you... If it weren't for the logo on the bottom of this one, I never would have guessed this was done by you...Overall, a refreshing departure from your usual style...Looking forward to more such photos (hope you don't discontinue doing awesome props though, as those are still my fav...)...

P.S: Don't be lazy, click on the MFC link and check out the full resolution pic, what you guys see here really doesn't do it any justice...

So THATS why its been rather quiet around here for the past week...The calm before the storm...
