Wonder Festival 2013 (Winter) / ワンダーフェスティバル 2013［冬］ Big Company Toy Displays

In what has fast become a Wonder Festival tradition since the show's move to Chiba, one of the aircraft hanger sized sections is largely devoted to exhibitions by larger companies like Kotobukiya, Revoltech, and the Good Smile Company. It's also the hanger with live concerts (photos strictly prohibited), but I haven't got my idol dance moves down yet, so I don't spend much time in that corner.

The displays are a major draw, making it tough to get good photos unless you want to spend hours in the section jostling for position. KK's focus of course is on indie toys, but I did manage to squeeze in a few minutes running from pavilion to pavilion to check out the figures and snap some pics.

Revoltech Exhibition at Akiba Zone

From December 2-4, the basement level of Akiba Zone hosted a number of exhibits. The other day, I posted a report about an interesting, though somewhat chaotic, 30 Years of Garage Kits exhibition held in the space. Just to the side of that show was another put on by Kaiyodo, featuring its blockbuster Revoltech line.

I don't collect the line, but I've reported on the company several times. I have a lot of admiration for their level of detail, poseability, and personality spark the company infuses into each new figure. Kaiyodo also puts on amazing Revoltech displays at toy shows.

Here are pics from the Akiba Zone exhibition:

I wonder if anyone's made a stop-motion Revoltech movie. Because there isn't a lot you couldn't do with these figures!
