The latest Alter figure of Gurren Lagann‘s Yoko, spotted on display at the recent Megahobby and WonHobi events, has just become available for pre-order on online shops.
This also means that a number of official photos have become available of the attractive figure, which are shown below…
The 1/8 PVC figure comes from Alter, a respectable name in the figure business if there ever was one.
Its full name is 謎の賞金稼ぎ ヨーコ・リットナー / Yoko the Mysterious Bounty Hunter, an appropriate name as it depicts Yoko as the self-idealized version of herself in the “dream world” in the 2nd to last episode of the series (I believe – I saw episodes 13-27 in one continuous sitting nearly a year ago, so my memory might be a tad off):
This certainly looks to be a quality rendition; I can only think of the facial expression as the one detail I would need to inspect further – the rest of the figure looks superb, and the face might well just look odd to me at first glance but could slowly grow on me.
Alter Bounter Hunter Yoko should become available in June, and pre-orders have started becoming available online earlier today for around ¥7,500, which is quite fair for a figure of this quality and polish.

While the series sucked up BIG time (yeah okay flame me) this figure is epic! Her stature is original, the wind effect on her hair and jacket is magnificently sculpted, her garment is, as always, provocative and her guns frightful.
My only concern is, as Quen points out, her face. It doesn't seem to be exactly like it was on the show, though this does not mean that it is a bad rendition.
*flames*
Another one that simply cannot understand what "Going beyond the impossible and kicking reason to the curb" really means.
I love kicking reason to the curb. Everyone should apply it to their life and pull a kamina once in a while.
Yoko is looking more hotter and GAR there. Love her sexy and athletic body <3 <3 <3
I wonder why they did not include her skull hair clip.. Still nice figure though.
yoko is gar!
Don't like the boobs, they're up too high and too round.
She's still got her big rifle. Whoo...I was worried there for a minute.
Yea this exchange rate is destroying me but thanks for the update.
she's looking pretty bad-ass with the tattered trench coat.
saw this figure before. yeah, it's very well designed, but imo, it lacks moe-ness, and the hair color doesn't seem right.
I agree on your statement about her hair.
I was thinking about a word to definite how weird it feels to me. In the country I live we usually say that a colour is not bright enough, something like you can't see it fine because there's not enough light. Still, giving it a second glance, i guess i could say her hair is "dusty". Word that seems to fit, considering also the world they live in and the jacket she wears. Maybe i'm just reading too much in it, who knows.
If you want moe go with Nia, Yoko has always been about sexy curves and dynamite body.
This is why I never have liked Yoko. Sure she's nice and a main character and everything but I honestly never could like her.
And it doesn't help that there are about 200 different Yoko figs, while there's virtually no Nia ones. It seems like there's a new Yoko coming out about every week too.
after the 7 years passed, where did yoko's skull clip go?
am i the only one who wonders this?
Indeed, quite a surprising omission.
Yoko looks better with her hair down.
You, sir, have good taste.
Lower lip juts out a weeetle bit too much. But still. Awesome as hell.
Shame I'm not the kind of person to buy more than 1 figure of the same character.
3rd last photo. Her belly/waist/ribs area looks kinda deformed?
Love the pose. Love the face. Love the body.
Definitely a buy, I've been waiting to pre-order this for ages.
Sauced, the end.
I was gonna say, I didn't recall her quite having an hourglass figure. Well, time to plow through the rest of those episodes this weekend!
I think she is shaved
