Baltimore from Azur Lane (Light Armed Version)
Eighty-one years ago on this date, USS Baltimore was launched from her building yard in Massachusetts, and thus it’s an appopriate day to take a look at this figure of Baltimore from Azur Lane. Since her introduction she’s become one … Continue reading
St. Louis from Azur Lane (Light Armed Version)
Azur Lane has grown from relatively modest beginnings as a thematic competitor to Kantai Collection to a multimedia powerhouse in its own right. Its array of conspicuously – and shamelessly – sexy characters no doubt plays an outsized role in … Continue reading
Lucia from Punishing: Gray Raven (Crimson Abyss Version)
I’ve spent a lot of time in the last couple of years playing gacha games, and the plethora of Azur Lane, Fate/Grand Order, and Arknights figures I’ve purchased is testament to this enthusiasm. Today we’ll look at a figure from … Continue reading

Asuka Langley Shikinami from Neon Genesis Evangelion (Kotobukiya White Plugsuit Version)
Looking at my pile of unreviewed Asuka figures – and it’s a sizeable pile – I wondered how long it’s been since the last time I’ve written a review of one of her figures. I couldn’t imagine it’s been that … Continue reading

Cecil from Elf Village (NSFW)
We took a look at Vertex’s Archeyle almost four years ago, and today we’ll be looking at Cecil, the latest in their series of Elf Village figures. I liked Archeyle’s design but I felt that the execution left something to … Continue reading

Miyamoto Musashi from Fate/Grand Order (Alter Berserker Version)
Alright, time to get back on track with figure reviews. Today we’ll take a look at Miyamoto Musashi, Type Moon’s genderbent interpretation of the famous Japanese swordsman and philosopher. This particular version presents her as a Berserker, and evidently depicts … Continue reading

Year Fourteen Retrospective
And we celebrate the conclusion of year 14 of Tentacle Armada, though the pace of updates is still particularly slow, which I’m not proud of. I’m certainly not quitting collecting figures; I think I’m buying more figures than ever before, … Continue reading
Mona from Genshin Impact (Astral Reflection Version)
Happy New Year to everyone. We recently – relative to my pace of updates, anyway – looked at Raiden Mei from Honkai Impact 3rd, and we will on this first day of 2023 take a look at a character from … Continue reading

Raiden Mei from Honkai Impact 3rd (Herrscher of Thunder ~ Lament of the Fallen Standard Version)
Gacha games have, for better or worse, exploded in popularity in recent years, and Mihoyo’s critically-acclaimed title Genshin Impact has played no small role in the growth of this genre. However, Genshin Impact’s predecessor is noteworthy in its own right, … Continue reading
