HOBBY★ROCK WonderFestival 2016 Sneak Peek (Updated)
LBD "Nytetrayn"
In t-minus 9 days and counting (so around December 16th or so, if I’m correct), the annual Japanese hobby show WonderFestival will be in full swing. Attending as always is HOBBY★ROCK, a table designated for Rockman-specific model kits and products.
(Update: Okay, apparently there was some incorrect information from the source/original article here; the HOBBY★ROCK website that previews the wares they’ll have on hand launches on that date, not the biannual WonderFestival, which will be at the Makuhari Messe Convention Center outside of Tokyo on February 7th, 2016.
And while they’ve attended frequently, including 2015, they’re apparently not actually there every year, and the stuff they sell is apparently only available for one day and tend to sell out quickly, leaving fans to scour auction sites to gather the goods.)
Via their Twitter account, HOBBY★ROCK has been showing off a number of such figures and model kits that one can expect to find at their table this year. Following are several of the kits, along with a rough translation (per Twitter itself) of the tweets that accompanied them.

For what it’s worth, I’m pretty sure this was one of last year’s offerings. What I can’t tell is if they’re saying it’s being resold again this year, or if they just wish it was.
So we changed the structure of the hip poses get easier I will. Maybe. Maybe a!
