Alter just released some shots of their new Aigis figure, based off of the cover of Shigenori Soejima's Art Works collection. The base they showed off at Wonderfest was gorgeous enough, but the painted version is just... amazing. The detail work is superb; I'm a big fan of the text imprinted on her shoulder and the hair. (Yeah, it says Aegis, but I'm not the sort of person who really makes a distinction between Aegis/Aigis.) This is definitely the be-all, end-all Aigis figure. Really hope I can find the cash to buy it. Their site says something about 9/14 news, so I suppose then they'll be talking about starting pre-orders or at least announcing a price.
