Hobby Complex 06 Tokyo

Yet another hobby event in Japan. Hobby Complex 06 was held in Tokyo yesterday as figure companies and individual makers showcase their masterpieces and latest works. These are times when I wish I lived in Japan.

Strangely though, I didn’t think there were too many new figures since I have seen the majority of them. I guess that’s because most of the figures on display were resin / garage kits. Here are some new figures spotted:

 

Nice Tomoyo figure there and also the Namae no nai Onna figure which is still in the works. The following blogs provided much more extensive coverage of the event with tons of pictures (for mature readers only, pls):

My recommended coverages are by Hobby Stock and GA Graphic. For GA Graphic, the coverage is categorized into 3 parts and you can view them here, here and here. Pictures below from GA:

 

 

 

 

 

Good looking Rei figure. Anyway, there are many nice figures , although nothing that really make my heart beat faster. Probably because they are mainly garage kits and not many major PVC figure makers took part in the event.

I wonder if any figure fans out there would fly over to Japan just to attend such hobby events. The only one that I would really be interested in attending would be Wonder Festival or WonFest for short. Even then, just imagining the queue to get into the event arena is probably enough to deter me from going. (^_^)”
