Move Over for the Power Forward of Seirin High


Redeeming MegaHouse for the lack of exciting POP announcement this January is the second addition to the Kuroko No Basuke Figure Series, the challenger to the Generation of Miracles - Taiga Kagami. A follow up to their Tetsuya Kuroko from the same product line and anime/manga series. Preorders for Kuroko No Basuke Figure Series - Taiga Kagami will start on the same date and time as the POP Sailing Again - Trafalgar Law (re-release) which will be next Thursday, 16th of January 2014 at 18:00 (JST).

We first seen the uncolored prototype during the MegaHobby EXPO 2013 Autumn last November. It then appeared again if full color at the Jump Festa 2014 event last December. So far MegaHouse has the best offerings for Kuroko No Basuke figures. Judging from the first two figures - Kuroko and Kagami, the sculpt is top-notch, the face is spot-on and they got the essence and personality of the character in their dynamic pose. Really love it.

To follow-up sometime later will be Daiki Aomine & Shintarou Midorima which was also shown during the Jump Festa 2014 event while still on uncolored prototypes. It's exciting to see the rest of the Generation of Miracles. I believe MegaHouse is serious producing all the major character from the series, given the fact that they made a separate figure series called "Kuroko No Basuke Figure Series".  I hope they will also produce Satsuki Momoi too :) (yeah, I sounded like a pervert again).

No pricing and release date announced yet, so keep your eyes peeled on this site or on my Facebook page.
