The really crazy thing is, the guy doing the castings (in white metal) is doing them himself in his garage, in Seattle. He learned how to cast metal just to produce figures for Anima.
I'm not sure that he has the time. He's producing all the figures for the game, which is available in a few different countries, as well as translating the Anima RPG from Spanish for US distribution. As it is, he had reduce his ambitious release schedule on the figures- I think it was originally 4 every two months, now it's more like 1-2 every two months.
Kai is his name. Great guy very talented at casting he took over doing all of our casting at the begining of the year. If you want to get in touch with him PM me and I can send you his info.
not for me. I think I like just 1 model from Anima line (girl with books and glasses).
I usually prefer fantasy minis, with manga style it's quite different - I love Inifinity (sf), I don't care about Anima (fantasy)
