A YOUTUBE FIRST. A new addition to my collection. I'll do a proper review of the figure when i open it up... Probably... BTW, that was my actual phone... I have the same ringtone as Konata.

Quite a bit of footage taken from the show this time.

Lucky Star (らき☆すた, Raki☆Suta?) is a Japanese four-panel comic strip manga by Kagami Yoshimizu. The strip has been serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Comptiq magazine since January 2004. Cameo strips were published in other magazines such as Shōnen Ace and others. Like many four-panel comic strips, it has no ongoing plot, and typically focuses on the daily lives of the characters.

In August 2005, a drama CD based on the series was released, and in December 2005, a Nintendo DS video game entitled Lucky Star Moe Drill, was released. A sequel, also playable on the DS, called Shin Lucky Star Moe Drill was released in May 2007, and a PlayStation 2 visual novel was released in January 2008. In September 2006, it was released to the press that Kyoto Animation would be animating an anime based on the series; it contains twenty-four episodes. The anime first aired on the Chiba TV Japanese television network between April 8, 2007 and September 16, 2007, though aired concurrently on other networks. A light novel was released in September 2007. The anime has been licensed in the USA by Kadokawa Pictures and distributed by Bandai Entertainment; the first of six DVDs will be released on May 6, 2008.

The Tokyo Wonder Festival is an annual event to display and sell "garage kits", which are sculptures that usually replicate anime and game characters, but also often recreate popular mecha/sci-fi characters and creatures. These models are extremely detail oriented, and many of these sculptures appear in very small quantities due to the amateur nature of their reproduction. Unusually skilled artisans are promoted specifically during the "wonder showcase", in which their works are given special attention and limited quantities of their masterpieces are sold for high prices to avid collectors. Many of the garage kits now sold at the Wonder Festival are oriented around female characters, often displayed in very exposing and often erotic positions. The market for these figures has spread overseas, and they have now become increasingly popular among collectors in many countries outside of Japan.

  • You should have bought 3...

    One to open, One to keep boxed and One to preserve

    XD

  • Too bad you didn't open it, but I know you have your reasons. I (personally) don't get it why you wouldn't open it though, it's not like I'd sell a figure I bought anyway. Why not open it up and enjoy it?

    Well, again, that's my own opinion. Though it's kinda weird to review a figure if you don't open the box. I really enjoyed your other reviews anyway ;)

see all
