First up is this incredibly beautiful figure of Velvet. She was originally a garage kit crafted by legendary figure sculptor Bubba! and was presented way back in 2007 at Hobby Complex 07. Figure producer Yamato announced earlier this week that they picked up Bubba!’s sculpt and will be mass producing it. Yamato is also the company who will be producing the equally as gorgeous Mercedes figure, who is also from Odin Sphere. This figure also features a castoff skirt revealing a sexy pair of see-through panties.
When Odin Sphere was first announced by Vanillaware, it was Velvet’s incredibly sexy pose that originally got me interested in the game (as shameful as that sounds.) To see that same dynamic pose being immortalized into a PVC statue has made this particular piece a must-buy for me. She’s expected for a December 2009 release date with a 9,800 yen price tag. If the price seems a bit steep, it’s because this figure will be approximately 10 inches tall, giving her a good 2 inches over a regular 1/8 scale model. Needless to say, as soon as pre-orders open up for her, I’ll be the first in line.

Next up is this Alice figure. Now, I don’t want to upset all of you, but for now, this figure is only offered as an unpainted, un-assembled garage kit that can be bought at this years Wonder Fest 2009 for 5,800 yen. But don’t fret! All the wonderful Odin Sphere figures that have been – and will be – released all started out as garage kits. So it is very possible that this figure will be picked up for mass production. Quite possibly by either Alter, who handled the Gwendolyn figure, or Yamato who is handling both the Velvet and Mercedes figures mentioned above.
It would just be an utter shame not to put a custom figure of this quality into production for the fans of Odin Sphere. It’s also a fact that we just don’t see enough gothic lolita figures on the market. As a fan of the design, it’s a shame that there are currently no figures sporting that aesthetic in my collection. If this figure does happen to push its way into mass production, I’m hoping that Socrates will be castoffable. I’d still display him next to Alice, but I think the figure would look better without him on her lap. Maybe he can be interchanged with the book she reads the stories from? That’s an accessory I would definitely like to see packaged with this figure.

Sure, we’ve had to wait quite a while after Odin Sphere’s initial release to start seeing some quality figures of the characters, but at least we’re getting some! Hopefully this isn’t a trend for Vanillaware titles, as I would hate to wait a long time for Muramasa figures to start showing up on the scene.
