Kotobukiya is going to release the Kobato [Hanato Kobato] ( こばと [花戸 小鳩] ) non-scale PVC figure from the manga/anime “Kobato.” ( こばと。 ) . Will be released in October 2009. Around 180mm tall, 4,800 yen.
I used to be a big CLAMP fan, but somehow I lost interest in their work around 3-4 years ago and I couldn’t pickup their manga anymore. Like the Kobato. manga, I only read couple pages of chapter 1 and I dropped it. I really don’t know why, but it’s like something in their manga really against me. XP
Well anyway, Kobato. is going to have anime soon! It’s scheduled to be broadcasted on October 6, 2009. It’s a really good news for CLAMP fans. But from the look of the wallpaper, Kobato in the anime doesn’t looks like Kobato to me at all… Let’s hope that it’s just the wallpaper. (-______-.
Btw, 4,800 yen is REALLY CHEAP for a figure like this. I love you Kotobukiya! Let’s keep the price down!!!

——Description from Wikipedia—— Kobato is sweet and perky girl, but also extremely naive about the world around her. She has a “mission”, which is to fill a mysterious bottle of hers with the suffering from people’s hearts so her wish to go a certain place that she desires to go can be granted. However, she has a restriction, she is not allowed to fall in love with any person whom she heals the heart of. |

Another win for kotobukiya! Nicely done figure + low (relatively speaking) price tag means shes a sure get for me. I do wonder how they can sell her at that price though- not that I’m complaining.
I was planning on getting her anyway, but that price was a pleasant suprise. ~_^
The hair in the back is very strange… Plus despite being unique, the colors aren’t very appealing. Since I don’t know the origin of that dog thing in the cage, I won’t say that’s it’s really out-of-place.
Nah thats her…errr…what to call him…Supervisor? Ah anyway a foul tempered plush doll looking dog that breaths fire. :p
