According to amenbo it's coming out in December October. 1/7 scale and 4975 yen which is about the norm for figurines like these.

It's made by Max Factory rather than Yujin which is something of a surprise (pleasant) and the sculpt/build looks to be of higher quality than the SRDXs though there are a few odd sections. In particular the "muffin top" like bulge caused by those briefs is a bit unsightly. The lifepreserver is nice though, it makes for something different the the contrast and such the blue adds is somewhat pleasing. The "sharpness" of her waist is a bit miffing but could be ignored I guess. The amount of attention that seems to have been paid to places like her hair, face and the flower and such is pretty neat though.

Overall I say it's not bad. It could've had a better subject and certain liberties could have been taken with it to make it more appealing but it's not bad. More than anything else though, it makes me wonder of what's to come now that a company-not-called-Yujin has stepped up to the plate.

EDIT: Gah! December? I meant October >_>

Her head looks a little small.


'an those are some SMALL bottoms.

[Königbreaker]

This one looks great.. She doesn't look as underfed as she did in the Gals collection, though her mid-curves look a little extreme.

'an those are some SMALL bottoms.

I have those same bottoms.. How weird.

Yeah, this one looks so much better than the previous figurines by Yujin in my opinion. From an aesthetic point of view my friend agreed it was pretty good too and she hates female figurines xp Her briefs seem to be a couple of sizes too small though.

Pity we didn't get something like this earlier. I'm sure it would've done pretty well but I think most people are sick of Kotona by now.

Damm!! look at that from a distance and you could swear she's naked

...... .... yea the hair looks good, nice and detailed

[adamassc]

I like this one. Her proportions are within reason, although she does appear to be wearing an invisible corset. What truely excites me, however, is the shallow hope that this company will go back and redo some of the figures Yujin attempted. A properly proportioned Tasker Sisters set would please me greatly.

I think I've seen this one...


Isn't this the one with the Murasame Liger and Lanstag playing on the water behing her?

[尹 眞悟]

Yeah, that was the original art though I thought everyone knew that by now o.o It became incredibly popular spawning a lot more art and a couple of figurines, there Zoids Girl figurine preceding this one.

The art was for a poster that came with Megami magazine I think. There's a few for sale on eBay.

I will soon be missing space for all those figures....

Ohhhhh, Ahhhhhhh....... looks very different to the zoids Gals Kotona.... more detailed and well proportion'd (in my opinion)

[Phenotype]

Pretty nice but I don't think Bethany would be very happy if this one showed up in the mail.

That would be pretty cool if she had something resembling proper clothes on. Nice sculpt, but...uh.

How about the Murasame and Lanstag playing in the water for a backdrop :p?

[Xehn]

...none of the Kotona figurines have normal clothes on, do they?

Wait, forgot about the Rainbow Jark Wind Kotona...

You also forgot about the SRDX Kotona, which seems to have been released already but no websites I know of have pictures of it.
