The 48th Japan Mokei Hobby Show is being held through October 16 to 19 at Makuhari Messa. As you may be able to tell by the name it is more of a model kit show then a toy show but there was no lack in interesting items. Unlike Wonderfest or C3 x Hobby this is a military and mecha centered show so if that’s what your looking for you’ll get a mouthfull of it. It is open to the public on Saturday and Sunday so if you’re in Japan and live nearby you might want to take a look at it. All pictures were taken on Thursday October 16. Lets start off with the Bandai Booth in particularly the Macross Frontier toys they had. Lots of new stuff were on display for the first time and as expected they will be coming out with lots of products from the series. First up is the Model Kits they were displaying. As well as the VF-25 Messia Ozma Version scheduled for November four other types were seen for the first time. The VF-25 Mikhail (Micheal) and Luca as well as a Super Parts version of the Alto version was on display. As a surprise a Bajra model kit was also being shown. No official announcment on whether everything shown will be released but with the way the Alto Ver. sold it looks highly probably.
Next will be the Chogokin Damashi Series VF-25 Messia’s. As with the model kits be they’ll be coming out with all four Alto and Ozma in November (Maybe December) followed by Mikhail(Micheal) and Luka in March of 09. Made in, I believe 1/60 scale, they were much larger and impressive then anything I imagined. Alas no huge Bajra was there to be seen.
The 1/100 VF100 series Bandai is coming out with were also being shown for the first time . The first release will be the VF25 Messia and is scheduled for a February 2009 release.
As for the rest of the booth there was the 1/12 Gundam Beam Saver Toy that is currently under development as well as many of the new Gundam model kits. The Gundam Fix Z Plus looked impressive along with the new Robot Damashi toys that will soon be released.

We’re back with Part 2 of our Cx3 Hobby report. All pictures were taken on Augest 31 at Makuhari Messa. To see what you missed on part one click here. http://www.over-drive-inc.com/overdrive-blog/info/1303.html Let’s begin the second part with a look at some of the larger companys that we missed on part 1. Good Smile Company and Max Factory are up first. The main attraction of the Good Smile Booth was the Hatune Miku Figma figures that were being sold at the event before it’s official release a week later. As you can see from pictures the booth was covered with Hatune Miku. A Miku splatered Good Smile sponsered race car that is actually used in domestic races was put on show. Next is the Volks and A-Zone booth. Both are famous for their very popular dolls. Volks is also famous for being one of the pioneers of mass producing and selling resin kits. The Macross Frontier Itasya made it’s appearance at the show. The fifth picture is of the small pack of tissues that was being handed out at the booth. The two giants of the Japanese hobby magazine industry Hobby Japan and Dengeki Hobby were also there with booth right across each other. They were both displaying the model kits that were customed made for their magazine articles. As for what it was like inside a few pictures. It’s not really super crowded like the Wonderfest or Comike unless you happen to run into the crowd at the Seiyuu events being held but still a fairly well attended event. They was a playable version of the newest Super Robot Wars game as well as the new Macross PSP game. There was even a AKB48 sighting there. Seven of the girls were there to put on a small concert at their booth three times a day. The fanatic fans who were there to see them were camped out in front of the booth doing their stuff the whole day. The strangest thing that was found at CX3 Hobby was bar none the Military Recrutment Booth. For some reason the JSDF (Japanese Self Defense Force: for those of you who wonder about thing like this we’re actually prohibided by law from calling them the army) chose to have a booth at a hobby event and try to recruit new soldiers. They were offering to let anyone try on a uniform and sit in the seat of a Hummer and take pictures. There was also repotably a 30 minute training session with a real Sergeant screaming at you held on the first day for those who were brave enough to register. In the end it ended up being another spot cosplayer could pose at but it kinda looked weired when the military personal started taking pictures too. This wil be the end of our report on C3XHobby. Hope you enjoyed it
