At first I like to mention I did not put all figures of  “Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha” series in this overview. It was way too much and I had to split things up in parts. This overview is part 1. If any can provide me with more information, please do.
At second I won’t order the figures on date, name or whatever. I might do it if I get time :/.

I hope you like the little overview of Nanoha Figures.

Takamachi Nanoha -  Beach Version, Good Smile

Vita – Normal and Unison mode version, Alter

Publisher: Alter
Sculpted: Tanaka Touji
Height: ~190 mm high (7.5 inch)
Scale: 1/7
Price: €55 (US $72)
Accessories: Graf Eisen Dril mode, Graf Eisen (normal), Giant Hammer Graf Eisen

This figure shows Vita and her weapon graf eisen in action.  In her flight she takes out her weapon and summons Graf Eisen giga form. Graf Eisen turns into a giant oversized hammer (for a very small girl).

Vita takes the hammer into both hands and forms a spinning tornado along herself once she sweeps the giant into the air. The massive weight of the hammer carries and supports Vita’s balance in her deadly and fierce ‘tornado’ attack.

Nakajima Subaru Alter

Scale: 1/7
Height: 220 mm
Release: 22 July 2009
Sculptor: Mumei
Price: €60 (US $79)

Unlike a real mage Subaru uses Belka Magics. Together with with some modified roller blades and huge gloves she runs the highways confronting foes face on face. Her weapon is called Mach Caliber. Together they are determined to help and support people in need.

It all started when she was an helpless little girl who was saved by a lovely mage, Nanoha Takamachi. From that moment she wished to be strong and looked forward to meet this kind person again and become a life saver as well. In StrikerS, the third season of the Nanoha series we find her struggling for these goals.

* Kidnemo misspelled Subaru, they wrote ‘Suburu’, but it is in fact Subaru. Don’t mail me again to ‘correct’ the name. Thanks.

Alter Lanster Teane

Lanster Teane, Alter

Scale: 1/7
Height: 160 mm
Price: €59 ($70, ¥6800)
Release: 30th January, 2009
Sculptor: ???

Teane Lanster is a sharpshooter who wields her guns named Cross Mirage to overcome her brothers dead. Her parents passed away when she was little and all she had was her brother. Her brother was a great shooter, but got lost in a mission. Cold hearted he was never honored and Teane obviously could not accept that fact. Now walking the footprints of her own brother she finds her own path crossing aside. Together with her partner Subaru she will become the next generation StrikerS!

Good Smile, Hayate Yagami

Yagami Hayate Knight Armor, Max Factory

Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A’s and
Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS
Scale: ??? … 1/8
Height: 135mm
Price: €20 ($27.99)

Yagami Hayate makes her tribute in the series from the second season. Alike Nanoha Takamachi she starts as an innoncent girl. Even ‘worse’ she has an handicap and lives on her own until four knigths emerges from the book of darkness who serves her. Instead she uses the knight to become the ultimate ruler of the planet, she prefers them to have a family.

It’s a pity the book of darkness cannot suppressed that easily … You find that story in the second series of Nanoha. Nekomagic has quite a lot of pictures.

Alter Yagami Hayate

Yagami Hayate , Alter

Scale: 1/6
Height: 290mm
Price: €154 ($199) / aim for €130 ($170)
Release: ?? November 2009
Sculptor: Tsumezuka Hiroyuki

Alter version of Hayate is huge and an outstanding piece of expertise. Several bloggers had to restrict their complaints to: expensive and a supersized box.

Along with Hayate, the mistress of the Book of Darkness, you get Reinforce Zwei. A tiny (and ugly version) of a Reinforce Zwei Non Scaled version of Alter.

Reinforce has her own base or can float at the right shoulder of  Hayate. The book and Reinforce seems to float as the dark angel casts her spell. The wings on her back are just awesome. This figure is definitely worth to buy, even for non Nanoha fans. Though, know she’s huge!

TIP: checkout foobarbaz Yagami Hayate photo’s. Those are splendid and gives you a good view of the figure.

Capsule Figures, Yujin

Scale: ??? … 1/9
Height: 110mm
Price: €18 ($22.99)

I missed the first set, but the second and third set is in my (pre-) order list. These little figures are just cool to have as an collector. I wouldn’t advise them for a figure as is. Capsule figure’s are always low in quality and these wouldn’t be different. Though as collector item it will do for the small price.

Alter Fate Testarossa

Fate Testarossa Buster Version, Alter

Anime series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and
Anime series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A’s and
Anime series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS
Released: December ??, 2006
Re-release: May ??, 2008
Height: 250mm
Publisher: Alter
Sculptor: Tsumezuka Hiroyuki
Scale: 1/8 <– beware the cape is huge!
Price: 6,500 yen, €70, $84

The finest Fate Testarossa figure so far is created by Alter. Her sad expression on her face tells an unheard and sad story. Still, she stands firm and solid. Bearing her heavy blade proudly. Her weapon named Bardiche and Arf her familiar are her only friends. As she struggles to complete her mission to collect dangerous ’stones’ for her mother, she stumbles on Nanoha … Could Nanoha smile and kindness reach Fate’s heart? ^.^ Nanoha Season 1.

Alter Reinforce Zwei

Reinforce Zwei, Alter

Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A’s and
Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS
Released: May 08, 2008
Height: 190mm (without base)
Publisher: Alter
Sculptor: Tsumezuka Hiroyuki
Scale: Non-Scaled

Reinforce Zwei, the blessing wind, is an unision device who came to life when Reinforce One died. As an unison device she’s able to combine her strength with her master or one of the “wolkenritters”* protecting the book of darkness. Still, out of the battlefield, Reinforce Zwei is just like a human. She does her chores and have a job next to her master Hayate.

* Wolkenritters is German. “Wolken” means cloud and “Ritter” means knight.

Vita/ Signum / Shamal/ Fate, CM’s Corp

Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A’s and
Series: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS
Released: May 31, 2009 (Fate June 30, 2009)
Height: 210mm
Publisher: CM’s Corp
Sculptor: ???
Scale: ??? … 1/6
Accessories: Different faces, hands. (Fate has 3 swords, see nekomagic)

Three adult figures: Signum, Shamal and Fate Testarossa will be released over time by CM’s Corp. These three figures have all, what I think, a glimmered touch. The first (Vita) is released already (before November 2008 at least). I wouldn’t recommend the Vita, since Alter came up with an almost the same version in PVC which looks gorgerous. They don’t really fit the anime, but ain’t really bad. I wouldn’t recommended too anyone, but it seems to be great in collections.

Their homepages are: Shamal, Signum, Fate (I don’t know the link )
