So really, the most important thing is that…HAO IS NOW COLORFUL!
Yaaaaayyyyyy! Gorgeous, isn’t he? And look! The cape is made out of real fabric! I can’t wait for preorders to start on this guy. I’m passing on Anna (who I so far have not seen photos of. She may be MIA), but I most definitely getting Hao. No Ren so far :'(
There are a couple other things to report, too. First, even though I don’t like this character, even I can admit this is pretty cool!

It’s Jeanne! Sorry for the blurry pic. It’s the only one I’ve been able to find so far. Andy and I actually knew about this a couple days ago since Takei retweeted the “in progress” pics from the creator:
Thing is, this isn’t, as Andy originally thought, a bust. Nor is it a 1/7 or 1/8 scale figure. IT’S A 1/3 SCALE. That means the figure is about 1/3 of Jeanne’s actual height! Crazy! Unfortunately…they have said this is the only one they’re making, so if that’s true, I’ll never be able to have it in my apartment to “accidentally” topple over when I’m annoyed. Life is so cruel…

One more thing that came out of left-field:
Terriermon! I mean…that thing from Mappa-Douji! I *don’t* think this comes with Hao and is just a random thing since the site I found it on (ComiTama ftw) listed it at the bottom, and not the top with Hao. I could be wrong. I wasn’t there. Maybe someday we will be!
If anything else interesting comes up, we’ll be sure to pass it along!
