The recent birthday girl is heading out for a stylish meal in the park in her latest figure from Good Smile Company. Posing with her hands in the air, she seems to be in the middle of her "Nico Nico Niii~" catchphrase.
The 1/8-scale figure is part of the LoveLive! Cafe Campaign in AKIHABARA. Fans were able to vote on which idol best suited the picnic theme and Nico came out the victor. The campaign went on to create an image of Nico to celebrate her win, and that, in turn, was adapted into the figure.
Accessories include a canteen and two boxes of food, shown here in the picnic basket but they can be removed.
Pre-orders opened today and Nico retails for 9,259 yen (US$74). The figure is expected to ship in March.
