Bodacious Anime Statues

Cartoon Pin-Up Figurines are Bustin' Out All Over

— April 27, 2010 — Naughty
If anyone believed that anime was strictly kid stuff, these anime statues should definitely prove otherwise. Anime statues are a hot commodity in the comics and collectibles world in more ways than one.

Highlighting curvaceous characters from some of the most popular shows such as Ikki Tousen, Beat Amaha and Queen's Blade, these anime statues are labelled "for mature collectors only" and most feature removable clothing and limbs that can be swapped out for others to create different poses.

Crafted from PVC and in 1:7 and 1:8 scale, the anime statues show "warrior women" whose outfits run the gamut from full suits of armor to school girl uniforms to nothing more than filly underpants and knee socks.

If you're a fan of anime and are looking to start up a smokin' hot collection of pin-up style beauties, you owe it to yourself to take a closer look at the various anime statues available.
Trend Themes
1. Anime Collectibles - Opportunity for businesses to cater to adult collectors with anime statues and other merchandise.
2. Curvaceous Characters - Manufacturers can capitalize on the popularity of curvaceous anime characters by producing more statues and figurines.
3. Removable Parts - Innovation opportunity lies in the creation of anime statues with customizable and interchangeable parts.
Industry Implications
1. Comic and Collectibles - Opportunity for comic and collectibles retailers to expand their inventory with anime statues and attract a new customer base.
2. Anime Merchandise - Opportunity for businesses to enter the anime merchandise market and produce and sell anime statues and related products.
3. Toy Manufacturing - Innovation opportunity for toy manufacturers to create anime statues with removable parts and customizable features.
