Disney? Not the usual anime or sci-fi post, but still a great one. The Princess and the Frog is Disney’s comeback to traditional cel animation. No tired 3d animation here… and it’s not just bland hand drawn animation either… it’s full blown classic-style animation that Disney got it’s rep from. Another thing bringing it back into the classic Disney style is the subject matter and setting… New Orleans and/or The South…. like where the Haunted House is and other classics like Brer Rabbit, and even Steamboat Willie. Some characters are designed loose and exaggerated, almost look like graffiti style. The animation is reminiscent of the old animated movies like Secret of Nimh and games like Dragon’s Lair. The character design and animation is enough to make any artist/animator/Disney buff want to go to the movie and drool. Opening Nov. 25.

Check out these new little figures coming out. They’re called Weenicons and based on different pop culture icons. First peeks show figures for Michael Jackson and Mr. T and the rest of the A-Team. Other figures include Rocky Balboa and Alex from A Clockwork Orange.
These are great. Everyone is bound to like something from this line. The figures will be released in polyresin first then hopefully in vinyl.
Hot Toys has a 12″ Sheva figure from the Resident Evil 5 video game. It’s fully articulated with thirty points of articulation and comes with the regular fabric clothing and lots of gear. She has jeans, leather-like boots, tank top and bra, armbands, earrings, and necklaces.
Her weapons set is a virtual arsenal that includes a knife, a M92F handgun, VZ-61 machine gun, an AK-74, an H&K PSG-1 rifle, a big Magnum handgun, an M3 shotgun, and Ithaca M37 shotgun… and don’t forget the hand grenade.
She also comes loaded with lots of accessories including ammo packs for her handguns and machine guns, a headset, radio, five interchangeable hands with gloves, and a stand with the Biohazard 5 logo (Resident Evil is called Biohazard over in Japan).
Now someone has to make her in her alternate bikini costume.
Watch for Sheva later this year.

Yamato has a new sexy girl figure coming out… Iroha from the video game Samurai Showdown. It’s the next in line in Yamato’s Story! Image! Figure! EX collection. The figure is 1/6 scale and sculpted by Diskvision, the sculptor of the awesome “Eve” figure coming out soon. The figure comes with a display stand that looks like a wooden floor and weapons. Not sure if Iroha’s costume is cast-off, but it looks like it might be from the pictures. We were not totally sure if Yamato’s Arisa was cast-off and look at how great that turned out for those of us who picked one up. Iroha is up for preorder now and is expected to arrive in August or September from Yamato USA.
