This rather appealing figure version of Index, the heroine of A Certain Magical Index, is on the verge of release and looks to be the benchmark for future Index moe figures (at least until the inevitable cosplay variants), so a closer look is worthwhile.
It is also possible to strip off her clothes…
The cat, Sphinx, is also included.
It looks to be a gorgeous figure, but her wretched safety pins seem to causing problems for both illustrators and figure sculptors.
In this case, the pins look to be the weakest element of the figure; I can’t help but wonder why they didn’t opt for actual miniature safety pins, rather than the ugly filled in ones we see. The official shots you see here are the same as the actual product, of which some sample photos are available.
Still, nobody will likely hold this against her, and it is after all possible to disrobe her…
The figure itself, by Kotobukiya, is due towards the end of the month, and will be around the ¥6,000 mark.
I think I mentioned elsewhere that I had multiple pre-orders of this because I wanted to be sure I’d get it ASAP, but I was worried I might not cancel the extra orders once one was shipped..
Well, already have one besides me, and just got mail notifying me that a 2nd one has been shipped from a different shop that I’d forgotten about. Oops ^^;
At least now I don’t have to worry about wheter to have her cast-off or not, I can have both!
I love you index!!!!
cursed…
i want to buy it but there so many obstacles around me…
and i feel desperate when i can’t buy while i love her (nijikon mode)
Que lindura!!! y cuanta preocupación por los detalles n_n . Me gustaría comprarla para ponerla en mi oficina y relajar la vista viendo esta pequeña maravilla :3
Must… Buy… it!
Nice avatar there ^^
I was startled for a second there, thought I had somehow let an Index figure slip close to release date without a pre-order before I realized it was the Kotobukiya one (finally!) getting released.
Think their Kaori figure will be the last of the set of Makoto/Index/Kaori so far announced, the lack of a Komoe one is surprising ;(
Kotobukiya also has a Kuroko figure due out some time after Kaori.
