TOYS Xenosaga III T-elos JPN

New Import: US$68.00/each
 TOYS Xenosaga III T-elos 1/8 Scale Figure  - New Import
«©NCSX» Alter continues their tradition of sharp-looking figures with T-elos of Xenosaga fame. The 1:8 scale figure measures 21cm (8.26") tall and appears to be a nigh perfect recreation of the video game hellion. The Greek word "telos" means "final" or "end" which is somewhat fitting since she's one of the three bosses towards the end of the Xenosaga III game. Namco didn't give T-elos a major part in XIII but she's memorable from her first appearance to the final battle. 

   In the Alter figure sculpture, T-elos wears revealing body armor with a color scheme that's dark as opposed to KOS-MOS' bright pastel hues. The ebon-warrior carries an energy blade on her left arm which she uses to beat the silicon (silicone?) out of our beloved KOS-MOS. T-elos also has flowing blue hair which is similar to KOS' mane. Maybe battle androids are supposed to have flowing blue-hair to accentuate their mighty nature.

   The first batch of preorders will ship today but the remainder is expected to ship tomorrow when the rest of our shipments arrive. New orders for the Japanese version of T-elos are also welcome to ship on Tuesday. Pricing is set at US$68 + shipping.

TOYS Mini Drink Jidouhanbaiki JPN

Preorder Import: US$20.00/set
 TOYS Mini Drink Jidouhanbaiki - Preorder, Ships May 2008
«©NCSX» The Japanese are enamored with the miniaturization of things such as scaled replicas of food, Van Gogh paintings, animals, candy, and pretty much everything else under the sun. Epoch's Mini Drink Jidouhanbaiki toy miniaturizes soda vending machines.

   Five different vending machines (colored yellow, red, white, blue, and orange) are featured in the set and three replica cans are soda may be loaded into the machine for proper dispensing. If you want a can of soda, insert one of the three plastic coins into the machine, press the button, and a can of soft drink slides out from the bowels of the dispenser.

   The Mini Drink Jidouhanbaiki is usually sold randomly via gashapon machines in Japan but we'll gather together them into complete sets of five. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late May 2008 at US$20/set.
