Formidable female fighter Mumei of Koutetsujou no Kabaneri has once again become the center of attention as she obtains a life-sized figurine, sure to be the subject of much low angle photography for weeks to come.

The monstrous Mumei figures cost a whopping ¥2.5 million (about $24,270) and only 10 in total are planned for construction, and due to overwhelming demand those willing to pony up will be put into a lottery for a chance to win one of the figures.
