Hunting the Elusive

I got these two magazines some time ago, but have only just gotten all my equipment together to be able to do a post about them. Here, I present photos of the posters included in Dengeki Hime Aug 07, and the dakimakura cover which came with G's Festival. It's also going to be a little mini-release post (consisting of two high resolution PNGs scanned from the posters), and readers will also have the chance to request poster scans.

Dengeki Hime August 07 came with ten double-sided folded posters, mostly from games. I've seen the Little Busters bikini one floating around, but I was of course struck by the double-sided Itou Noizi featuring the new "Alice" game as well as "Nanatsuiro Drops Pure" (on a tangent, it bothers me to no end to see magazine scans for the anime being categorised under the artworks of Itou Noizi in image boards). As you can very well guess, it is this poster which makes up today's mini-release.

Here I have taken photos of the collection of posters. Some are pretty good, but posters are such a pain to scan and process that I can't do them all (it'd take ages). So if anyone has a request for a poster to be scanned, feel free to ask in the comments. Note that I don't remove the seam lines because it usually ends up being an ugly waste of time for me, so if any patient geniuses out there wants to do it themselves, you're welcome.

Secondly (and I thank Windbell for telling me about this a few weeks ago), the G's Festival featuring Little Busters comes with three bonuses in the "treasure box": a fairly simple jigsaw puzzle, a mobile hanger, and the de rigour dakimakura cover. This one is double-sided so you can choose your favourite side and neglect the other. Guess which side I like more?

Interestingly, the magazine includes a "personality test" which matches what you do with the dakimakura with the game character type that you are.

And finally, the Lucky Star pillow cover that came with my auction shipment last month.

The Konata side is so fun: it says "You are slowly getting sleepy" with the da-da-da-da-da! pose.
