Here are some preview shots of the upcoming figurine of Hayakawa Yuzuko in the scale of 1/8 from the manga series Peppermint Yuzuko. She’ll be produced by the good folks of GSC.

No retail price yet, but she’s scheduled for release in Spring 2010.
Love the chain that is surrounding her. Wonder how they made that. And I never heard of the manga series at all. XD

So how are the graphics of Bayonetta on the PS3 and Xbox? With the demo now available: The PS3 version does looked worse off than the Xbox version.

Looks like SEGA did a poor porting of the PS3 version! Oh and Platinum Games developed the Xbox version.

And SEGA wants to be fully responsible for the PS3 Version of Bayonetta by including a “Converted by:XXX” at the end of the game demo. LOL? The US release of the game would be out next year, hopefully SEGA would use the time now …
