This one looks much better than the America and England ones! And since those turned out much better-looking in person (IMHO) than in their online pictures, I can't wait to see how this one looks once I have it in hand!
I am not even sure what they mean by "car pillow", nor do I think I ever would use it for that purpose, but OHGODWANT. BOTH OF THEM. ALDKJFASKLFJASFJSDKFJA.
I bought them together, too. I was originally not going to buy them (as much as I love both characters) because they looked so derptastic, but then I saw them in the dealers' room at Anime USA this past November and immediately changed my mind. First purchase of the con. No regrets. >:D
I thought that might be the case, but I wasn't sure. It's the first time I've seen anything like it. Usually I just see people using small regular pillows for that.
Here, I took a couple pics of my own. Sorry that they're a little blurry - I'm not quite used to using my 3DS camera yet.
First, England (GE pic (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/8923.jpg), My pic (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0002.jpg)/Rear view (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0003.jpg)). As you can see, the overall design hasn't changed much. HOWEVER, take a look closer at his face (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0004.jpg). He's still a little wall-eyed, but HE HAS A NOSE, HOORAY! Also, his other facial features aren't as obviously pasted on. Also noteworthy, but not visible in the GE pic are the pockets and belt/buckle (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0006.jpg) on his uniform. There's a lot of detail that was missed in the original GE pic.
Now America (GE pic (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/8924.jpg), My pic (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0007.jpg)/Rear view (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0008.jpg)). By far the more improved of the two, IMO. First, his face (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0009.jpg). Nantucket is much more noticeable than in the GE pic, and as with England, his facial features and glasses are not as obviously pasted on. His torso area (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0010.jpg) is also improved, as his buckle and the star on his jacket are of a more natural color and, though one can't see it easily in a photo, are actually SHINY. One also misses the detail on his sleeve (http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg160/kamikazemusume/HNI_0011.jpg) in the GE pic.
tl;dr - GE used some pretty obvious prototype models for their website. I'm not sure why, since the prototypes in this case looked like crap, but IDK.

But given that, it just means the real thing's going to be that much better.
