zoids kotobukiya model kits

Takara Tomy and Kotobukiya will release a series of Zoids plastic model kits that turn the robots into cute girls. The project will officially start in 2025.

Illustrator Nidy designed the first two figures of the upcoming T-Spark Metamorverse series of Zoids plastic model kits. The Blade Liger looks like a blonde girl wearing blue armor. Like the Blade Liger, she has two long ear-like protrusions, which serve as ribbons for her pigtails. Other feline details on her include barrettes in her sideburns that resemble cat whiskers. The other figure will be one of Fiona from the Zoids anime and manga, but wearing armor that resembles Zeke.

This is not the first time that Kotobukiya has taken iconic mecha and turned them into cute girls to sell as figures and plastic models. In 2022, Kotobukiya released figures of personified cute girl versions of Optimus Prime and Megatron from Transformers. These were part of the Bishoujo series of figures. While there aren't any details on the Metamorverse goods, we know that they'll be plastic kits with joints on the figures to allow for poses.

The Takara Tomy and Kotobukiya Zoids Metamorverse plastic kits will appear some time in 2025. More information on them may appear within the year.

sanrio rainy day

Sanrio announced a Rainy Day event featuring four Sanrio characters dressed up in raincoats and holding umbrellas. The event will run from June 7, 2024 to July 9, 2024 at Sanrio's Harmonyland.

The Rainy Day event is for plum rain (tsuyu) season in East Asia. The late spring and early summer months tend to get a lot of rainy and flooding, as well as high humidity. During the Rainy Day Sanrio event, people who visit Harmonyland will get to see the raincoat-wearing mascots performing a live show, as well as take pictures with them and at special photo spots. People will also be able to purchase goods of Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, Keroppi, and Kuromi. Some of the photo spots and events are only available on rainy days.

Harmonyland is, like Puroland, a Sanrio amusement park that is in Kyushu. Like in Puroland, you can see Sanrio characters hanging out and take pictures with them, eat snacks, and purchase merchandise. Harmonyland also features rides such as a ferris wheel and a train. You will actually be able to take the pictures with the train from employee-only seats during the Rainy Day event. However, this will be limited to rainy days.

The Rainy Day event at Sanrio Harmonyland will run from June 7, 2024, to July 9, 2024.
