NCS Preorder Update
«©NCSX» The twelfth SFX Revoltech toy pays homage to the most formidable member of the Lepidoptera order in recorded history - Mothra. It's pronounced "Maw-soo-rah" if you're Japanese. Toho Studios released the Mothra film in the summer of 1961 and movie-goers were treated to the theatrics of a vengeful oversized insect who went on a mission to rescue two little beauties from Infant Island. The tiny beauties were played by a pair of singers who called themselves "Peanuts." In a scene towards the close, Mothra's metamorphosis from cocoon to moth is completed at Tokyo Tower and it is there that she goes on a wing-flapping rampage.
The Revoltech toy rendition of Mothra as sculpted by Kinoshita Takashi features a 195mm (7.67") wingspan and 13 joints which allow for leg movement and wing adjustments. Revoltech Mothra's six legs can be maneuvered and manipulated independently of each other. A prop of Tokyo Tower is also included in the toy packaging so that film fans (with a lot of time on their hands) can recreate scenes from the Mothra movie or create new footage for the Youtube generation.
Preorders for the Revoltech Mothra toy are welcome to ship in September 2010 at JPY2800 or US$39.90.
NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The original Ultraman and nineteen cohorts go to war against each other and an assemblage of 70 mighty monsters that bear names such as King Joe, Dada, Alien Baltan, Garamon and more. Although a game that's titled Dai Kaiju Battle Ultra Coliseum DX Ultra Senshi sounds like it'll be an all-out 3D fighting fest of epic proportions, NCS can assure you that it's not. Sure, there's battling but not in the conventional sense where monsters are controlled directly by the player. In Bandai's Wii interpretation of big movie monster battles, the Remote is wagged feverishly from side to side to perform certain moves which are then followed by other Wii Remote operations to ignite other fighting actions. In this manner then, the game is what NCS would call a flick-action fighting game since the moves are broken up into sequences that require Wii Remote movement before they're triggered. In other words, you won't control the monsters directly but your actions with the Remote decide how the beast under your control behaves and acts on screen.
In addition to the flick-action fighting, Bandai throws in three mini-games which also require Remote waving motion. One of the mini-games features tug-of-war between monsters. That alone is probably worth the price of admission. Or at least 1/4 the price of entry.
NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Remember a series of games called Monster Farm? We do but mainly because we still have hundreds upon hundreds of copies of the games in our warehouse. In Monster Farm, players inserted a music CD, game CD, or data CD into the Playstation console in order to generate a unique monster. The new Nintendo DSi-only title Monster Finder also uses a special gimmick to generate monsters. Take a photo of any object, person, or place and the Monster Finder software will analyze the image and generate one of 150 monsters based on the picture. We're thinking it's based on color balance and pixel positioning... Early preorders will ship with a bonus Monster Finder carrying pouch in 40% ratio. Please note that this game can only be played on Japanese Nintendo DSi handhelds.
NCS Game Synopsis
«©NCSX» Travel to the strange city of Kagura and meet monsters. Not just any run of the mill monsters however. These motley assortment of oddly appointed beasts are called Tsukibito and only some people can see them. Notably, most adults don't have the ability to see the Tsukibito because old folks just aren't hip to the preternatural. Two young heroes including a boy suffering from amnesia enter Kagura and interact with the Tsukibito, solve life's little mysteries, and engage a number of mini-games. One of the mini-games plays similarly to Dance Dance Revolution where arrow cues must be tapped in order to bring the monsters out and about in the burg of Kagura. The game is broken up into 10 chapters, each of which features a different mystery or adversarial drama to overcome.
