Hey everyone for those pokemon fans out there, I hope you all remember the Giratina that you happened to have Pre-ordered the Pokemon Platinum Version before it was released.

Well something similar is happening, since Nintendo is catching our attention and will give those who preorder the Pokemon Heart Gold version a Ho-Oh and those purchasing the pokemon Soul Silver Version will be receiving a Lugia. This offer starts February First.               

Both figures are crafted by renowned Japanese figure-making company Kaiyodo, perhaps best known for anime-woman sculptor Bome. In other words, these figures are one of the best quality figures ever to be made!

“These unique figures are our way of thanking Pokémon fans of all ages for the enthusiasm and support they have shown for the series,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions include new features and enhancements that players will instantly appreciate, and we think these terrific figures will help to get fans even more excited about what is in store for them on March 14.”

hehe, hope you all enjoy the game, once it comes out, have a nice day n_n
