One of the unspoken but generally understood tasks of Destructoid is to verify you guys part with your hard-earned cash on frivolous crap that you probably don’t need, because dammit, I’m poor and all of you should be as well! With that in mind, here’s some news out of the Wonder Festival 2012 Summer hobby event in Japan.

Following up on theSkyward SwordLinkfrom last month, Max Factory continues the Nintendo love with a figma Pit, based on hisKid Icarus: Uprisingdesign. It may be an unpainted model for now, but already it’s looking pretty slick. No release date or price has been announced yet.

In addition, Max Factory showed off a pair ofPersona 4 Arenafigmas: Aegis the ULTIMATE ver. and newcomer Labrys. I’m not too familiar withPersona, but I’m sure plenty of you guys would gladly spend some green on these ladies when they drop next year.
