You know, I have pretty much zero interest in Canaan. I've heard mixed reviews, and I still hold the hours I wasted on the first eight or so episodes of Fate/Stay Night against Type-Moon. (Yes, I know, I shouldn't, but I can't help it!)
And yet somehow the series seems to have acquired some of the best figures I have seen in the last year or so. First there was the titular Canaan, also shown above, right in an action shot, gun out, and she looks amazing. Not overly sexualized but still hot, beautifully rendered but not ridiculously unrealistic...it's really just a matter of whether that figure stays up solidly.
Now the Good Smile Company Mikatan blog is offering up photos of a second figure from the show, this time of Alphard-- but with what is undisputedly a similar level of awesome. Amazing pose, gorgeous design, absolutely amazing facial expression-- you name it! Preorders will open up on October 20th, so I think you'll have to wait until then for pricing and release date info...but more pictures will pop up, too, so yay!
Okay, let's hear it: do you dig this figure?
