Alter Starts New Line of Figures for Women

Just caught another interesting piece of news via Twitter: ClarisseG reports that Alter has started a new line of figures called Altair, which will be figures aimed at women, a relatively unusual demographic in a world of cute anime girl figures.

They promise that the female-targeted brand will feature "high quality, painted" figures, and acknowledge that it's a pretty broad aim at the moment, but they hope that we'll dig their "cool figures." Note that the word they use for "cool" here, kakkoii, is something I usually translate as "Cool with a capital C"-- a sort of more badass cool. (Boddington and I have been discussing how exactly to explain the difference between "kakkoii" and "cool" and have agreed that it's really hard to pin down.)

Anyway! They haven't announced any of their lineup just yet, as they're still thinking about it, but that while developing the line they "had the feeling, 'I want to make a figure that a woman would want to buy.'"

So, Dear Altair: I'd like to see a really good non-Nendoroid L, Kamina is hopefully a gimme, and I wouldn't mind Itoshiki-sensei from Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei and Akira from Eden of the East. Mmm.

Now it's your turn, ladies AND gents-- what male figures do you guys want? I expect to see some serious lists in the comments!
