Wait wait wait - Ankh ISN'T EATING A POPSICLE! Is he alright? Doesn't he feel feverish or something?
L! Fun fact? First Medicom 12" figure I ever saw was L, and I have wanted him since then.
Nah, Abkh is fine. He was trying to do the intimidating thing because Anakin was showing off the Force powers.

I saw Wednesday & Loki on IG, and guessed they would have been the entry fr L. And interesting pairing for sure - others should be wary.
And I’m not familiar with the characters in M but it’s an endless source of interest that companies make such a wide variety of figures
(Yesterday I learned that LEGO started out as a general toy maker, and the original bricks were made of wood, not plastic. I wish the show had focused more on them, and less on car makers.)
Edit: I know Anakin, but not the other 2 - I needed to clarify that as a Star Wars fab
Seriously, the Tea Bunnies work so well for a definition of kawaii. It had to be done.
I had never intended Loki and Wednesday as a romantic couple, but it morphed into that over time as I was writing Room segements. They're very fun to write for though, so I'm not so fussed about it.
Apart from Anakin - who you know well as well as how extra he is - we have L from Death Note in the middle, and Ankh from Kamen Rider OOO

This is a weird sentence to type, but it doesn't make it any less true: he has some of the best sculpted feet I've ever seen on a doll or figure. I mean, it does make sense - the character is generally always barefoot, but at the same time... An odd but cool feature. The stylized head is because it's based primarily - I believe - on the manga artwork.

L from Death Note. In his canon he is the best detective in the world and hardly ever goes outside, spending most of his time in front of screens. So very, very pale.

The only thing they have in common is the company that made them...

47. N is for Nendoroid
Arrival date: 11th January 2020
Kira will be the God of the New World
Death Note is one of my all-time favourite manga. I could actually credit it as being the manga that got me properly interested in that format of comic, actually... Anyway, when I heard they were releasing newer versions of the Nendoroid, I jumped to pre-order. Light here arrived at the start of the year, and L is due April/May. I'm really impressed at how much more detail this version has in comparison to the original release. An upgrade that is worth it.
