Moeyo's Best of Hip 2013

It's hip to be square round, thick, and luscious

Moeyo, unquestionably the world's foremost resource on PVC-rendered butts, has released their Best of Hip 2013 lineup, and the cast and the castings are quite varied, from shonen series to hentai starlets, with trading figures, resin kits, and garage kits all finding room among the standard issue retail offerings.  

1)  Nami from One Piece H.O.O.K. -Film Z- Version by Sentinel.

2)  Konome Kiritani from Pisuhame! 1/6 scale by Daiki Kougyo.

3)  Ayase Aragaki Thanatos Version from OreImo 1/8 scale by Kotobukiya.

4)  Secret Elephant X-Rated! 1/7 scale by Native.

5)  Bertille Althusse from Walkure Romanze 1/7 scale resin kit by Volks.

6)  Komaki Manaka Bunny Version from To Heart2 1/5 scale by Orca Toys.

7)  Super Sonico Sonicomi Package Version 1/5 scale by Orchid Seed.

8)  Mammon 1/8 scale by Orchid Seed.

9)  Peace Keeper Daisy 1/6 scale by Kotobukiya

10)  Liliana-san from Waga Ie no Liliana-san 1/5 scale garage kit by Mouse Unit.

Considering the amount of manipulation and destruction that went into discovering the assets Nami holds, I am personally inclined to call shenanigans on these results, but cannot one at the same time say the best things in life are earned, not given?  

Moeyo's Best of Bust 2012

With the end of each calendar year, we denizens of the intertubes can expect our favorite websites to crank out annual "Best of 2012" lists--otaku interest site Moeyo submits perhaps the most useful of these lists annually by examining and recapping the most essential features of anime figures, starting off this year with their Best of Bust rankings for 2012. 

1)  Sasara Kusugawa from ToHeart2 Dungeon Travelers 1/6 by Daiki Kougyo

2)  Kanu Unchou 1/7 scale Swim Wear version from Ikki Tousen by Griffon Enterprises

3)  Tamaki Kousaka Vacation version 1/6 scale To Heart 2 by Griffon Enterprises

4)  Misa-nee 1/7 scale by Native

5)  Queen's Gate Kanu by Hobby Japan

6)  Unico Wingedhorse from Pandra by Daiki Kougyo

7)  Hotori Yoshii by Native

8)  Nami H.O.O.K. Bust Collection from One Piece

9)  Mai Ichijo 1/7 scale from Mai Favorite by Orchid Seed

10)  Tamaki Kousaka 1/5 scale from To Heart 2 by Orca Toys

A bit of a surprise winner at the top of the fixture this year; Moeyo itself calls Sasara's assets "not too large, not too small," showing some love for a figure that actually finds itself within the realm of human physiological possibility.  My vote stays with that stunning Yuniko Wingedhorse figure, personally, with the DFC of Oyari Ashito's Princess Mordina a close second (note: Mordina was released in Japan in 2011, but made her way to the States in 2012, and it's my blog so deal with it), and SkyTube's delectable Ai Saeki a solid third.
