Mages in old adventure games were generally male, wrinkled, and looked a lot like Gandalf from the Hobbit. An old school mage also wore robes and carried around a wooden staff that was as old and gnarly as he was. It wasn't a pretty sight. NCsoft wouldn't have any of that when developing the Lineage MMORPG. Their mages would be young. Supple. Half nude. With sandy blonde hair. Good Smile Company has opened up preorders for the second figure in their Lineage II toy line and collectors are treated to the vision of a Human Mage who works her magic with a "metal" staff and apparel that we can only describe as medieval beach wear. The figure is set to 1/8 scale and measures 22cm or 8.66" tall and the sculpture is by Nakao Yoshimasa. Preorders are welcome to ship in late November 2008 at JPY6800 or US$68.90 from NCS.
