If I remember correctly, this is not the first figure of her, as there's a Nendoroid figure of her released somewhere.

I tried to see if it was real but all I found was an AnimeMaru article and some assorted memes

Hello! Cool

I believe that this figure of Toru is rather awesome. She can only be seen with her gloves and shoes a lot. The figure is creative and does not cost much. It would be a fun rather abstract figure to display.

What a joke.

This is a STEAL! I plan on sticking "her" with the three figma and those around $80 each. Being able to stick a fourth character with them (technically fifth, I have a big All Might prize figure to go with them) for only $18 is something I wouldn't have thought possible.

Nope, this really is her first.

this is hilarious. and I'd buy it...for $10.
That $18 price point is...stupid. Maybe it'll drop in price but I won't hold my breath.

I ordered two for $16.19 each thanks to the current subscriber sale.

I thought this figure was a joke at first, but even though I don't have any other MHA I'm still considering it for the novelty lol

Heh, Hot Wheels offered even less for Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet:

Look how much it goes for now:

I find weird that there is not one wearing clothes.

Quite sure the cheer leader one would sell a lot.

For anyone who likes to display some of their anime figures at work here's one to add just for the sake of having a figure of a naked girl that is safe for work.
