Guilty Gear X 1/7 Scale I-NO Figure - New, In Stock

The first word that comes to mind when checking out Max Factory's Guilty Gear X I-NO figure is "funky." Some other words that might be bandied about the room could be "flaky," "ditzy," and conditionally "sexy" in a crazy sort of way.

As one might have surmised from the product header, I-NO hails from the Guilty Gear X games where she serves a shadowy figure known as Ano Otoko. Under instructions from Ano Otoko, I-NO machinates and manipulates the fighters in the Guilty Gear X game against each other. In the Guilty Gear XX sequel, I-NO is the boss character and the ultimate opponent in the game. I-NO's primary weapon is an electric guitar which she strums to blow out sonic blasts and wreaks havoc on opponents by swinging it like an actual axe. I-NO's witch hat also provides offensive capability to stun oncoming attackers.

Max Factory's Guilty Gear I-NO PVC figure is set at 1/7 scale and measures 26.50cm or 10.43" tall. The likeness of the figure is true to I-NO's wacky video game persona and her body is posed in a manner which conveys her unique personality.

Dengeki Figure Navi Vol. 1 - Old Import, In Stock

A couple of years ago, NCS cleared out a few thousand Japanese gaming magazines that were sitting in storage. Famitsu was well represented as was Saturn Fan, Playstation Fan, and a bunch of magazines from the Dengeki publishing empire.

Today's Dengeki Figure Navi Vol. 1 mook (magazine/book) is a few months old and many of the toys featured on its pages have either been released already or will be released soon. Some examples:
