Atlus has been busy! There's a bunch of SMT and Persona related figures in the works to be released later this year.
First are the "Real Figure" [リアルフィギュア] series by FuRyu, a set of 2 demons, Shiva [ シヴァ] and Thor [トール]
These figures are 17cm [6.75"], and are available as a set, priced at 2,200Y, or individually for 1,100Y each.
Hobby Link Japan is taking pre-orders for both figures individually. To be released October 10th, 2010.
Next are the Game Characters Collection Mini series by MegaHouse, featuring these Persona 3 & Persona 4 characters: P3 protagonist, Aigis, Aigis (uniform), Orpheus, P4 protagonist, Teddie/Kuma, Shadow Teddie/Shadow Kuma, Izanagi, Naoto Shirogane, Rise Kujikawa and 2 secret figures.
They are only 3cm [1.25"] tall, and are currently available for pre-order in boxes of 12 [randomly assorted] figures at 4,788Y a box [or 399Y each]. To be released September 2010.
Many online shops have boxes stocked for pre-order, including Otacute.com and Animaxis.com.
And finally, a Jack Frost soft vinyl figure! Manufactured by ArtStorm:
It's 23cm [9"] tall, and no assembly or painting is required. No set release date yet, although it will be later this year. Here are a few sites still taking in pre-orders:

don't play with me 'cause you're playing with fire |
Ahhhh, and I thought this place was good as dead!! I have the bbs and comments feed in my bookmarks with extensions so I am able to see any activity at all here immediately 
I've been wondering myself if Megaten itself has gone cold lately. Other than the PSP rehashes I don't see anything happening. I looked for any current gen Megaten game in the works the other day and turned up nothing.
I have not been following Megaten, though it occurred to me the other day that Strange Journey's antarctic theme might have been inspired by H.P. Lovecrafts, "At the Mountains of Madness".
So anyway, I will try to add this news asap. Please help out if you remember how to work the WordPress stuff. Thanks for hanging in there 
EDITED: Cool new avatar...

Added to front page.
I should probably double check if there aren't any recent Spanish translations by Emilio which never got posted.
I'm assuming all of the Chinese comments are spam...

Ah, thanks for getting that up, full-time work means most of my daily surfing is done on a [crappy] mobile phone ^^;
As for other SMT-related news, I've only heard about Atlus supporting the 3DS with a couple SMT games announced at E3 a little while back; it's not stated if they're remakes or new stuff though [but it'll be in 3D!!1! lol]. Other than that, haven't heard much either sadly ^^;

Remember that you are mortal |

You assume correct, and my Chinese is still pretty lousy.
Although I must say I'm glad to see that there's still life in the old girl after being away for so long.
P.S. That Thor figure looks awesome
