They seem very solid, you don't have to put them together, I think they parts are glued together or something.

Actually, they aren't parts at all.
They are solid because each one is individually sculpted/molded from/with PVC.

Good. It'd be nice to have figures that actually stay together for once.

Then i'd like to hear Houk explain why the nendroid box is used for promotion.

I'm not speaking for Houk but my guess is simple. There's nothing to actually represent the actual package that we are getting as nothing can possibly be manufactured already. So they just mocked up, using the existing Japanese promo pictures.

As for why we're not getting the Nendoroid...I have no idea. I asked around, and it seems like the decision was made higher up the food chain.

Thanks for checking and asking around.

There actually is, the Promo box they used clearly depicts the prototype art for the nendroid petite, as opposed to generic fuuka art. By doing this, they have highly insinuated that we were getting the nendroid


Also in my defense, Houk's post doesn't exactly say "admin" on it

*sigh* And here I was hoping for the nendo petit. :cry: That and the fact that the art book is soft cover are really starting to turn me off of the anything more than the regular edition...

Guess I'll have to go buy the nendo here then :|

This is basically it. We used the Japanese pics as a mock-up with the caveat listed at the bottom that the art was temporary only and didn't represent the final product. Also this is just my guess, but it's possible that when it was put up, it hadn't been decided if we'd be including the Nendoroid or not. It's unfortunate that things got mixed up like this, but we've put an image of the actual Fuka figure on the pre-order page to clarify. So now hopefully everyone can make proper, fully-informed decisions on their D4 purchases!

(PS if anyone is still wondering about the artbook, it will in fact be soft-cover as noted. Again, the image we used was from the Japanese promo, which did have the hardcover, but ours will be soft. So soft...luxurious...almost sexy...)

Speaking of the sets, in Japan, the LE sets came with a special DLC code for Fallen Angel Flonne. What's NISA going to do about that?

As much as I prefer hardbacks, I suppose it'd be a little of overkill to have a hardback for such a comparatively small artbook, at least I'm guessing it won't be that large, as one of the only ones I own for something is like 140-odd pages, and that doesn't look like that size.

I also could be simply waffling. Might be better to ask any rough idea on the size of the artbook.

I have a question for Houk (if you can answer):

you said that the fuuka figures is not the nendoroid (bouh so sad), but you said although that with the super premium version we have the regular fuuka from the regular set plus 9 other figures, but I already have the completed trading set figures and it contains 9 figures with fuuka (so it is 8 plus fuuka).

so for the super premium is it in total 9 figures (with one is the fuuka of the premium edition)

or is it 10 figures (with one is the fuuka figure of the premium edition and the other is something else like a blue penguin ^^ but it would be too nice....)

I ask it because if it is 9 plus the fuuka, we have 2 figures which should be the same right? And my other question is can we change the reminder pre order thing because, with the fuuka figure not being a nendoroid (and I think the super premium set will end in only 9 figures with fuuka), I think that I will end up with the standard maybe.... but the artbook.....

From what I gather I guess the figurines you'll get with the super premium are the 9 figurines you already have + that one Prinny figurine that you can't seem to buy anywhere.

Btw, Houk, I see the changed picture.. But you're still using the box stock photos of the Nendoroid behind it. shouldn't you just take those out? Or is it because you don't have any pictures of the box that Fuuka figurine comes in? ( If so, I can take some pictures of em so you can at least take away that Nendoroid box photo )

that could be it. but with the photo that lets us hope that fuuka was the nendoroid version,I wait for an official statement on the number of figures and so the fact that it is the completed set of 10 and not the regular 9 set.

For the super premium it is 10 unique figures in total, with the other being something else that for various reasons I am not able to confirm the identity of, dood.

As for changing your pre-order reminder, you'll have to contact RosenQueen Support or PM Robbie about it, as I don't know the first thing about any of that stuff.

RE: Using the Nendoroid box stock photos - that whole thing is well out of my hands. I voiced my concerns about the situation with our web/marketing team, but that's as far as my influence goes. They discussed the issue and that's the solution they're going with. If they decide they want to do something more/different, that's something I don't have any say in (other than to pass along/point them in the direction of fan comments, which I certainly will do).
