Story! Image! Figure! EX: Needless - Eve
The year is 2130. World War III has ended, but now so called Black Spots have been appearing all over Japan. While the Black Spots have been largely contained behind huge walls, some individuals have taken to living among the ruined lands in the wake of these Black Spots. They are called the Needless... and they have abilities beyond our own. One such Needless is Eve whose doppelganger ability allows her to shape shift into anything, from a drill on her arm to other person's appearance. From the manga/anime Needless, Yamato presents a special 1/7 scale (approximately 9.00") PVC statue of Eve in one of her dynamic action poses from the series. Careful attention has been paid to every detail down to the fold and creases in her clothing and everything else. Eve comes complete with Giga Drill which can be attached to arm and a display base all packaged in a Japanese style collector's window box. Needless to say, this is a must for anime fans. Available January / February 2010.
Story! Image! Figure! EX: Umi Monogatari - Marin
Meet Marin from the new magic girl anime Umi Monogatari (Sea Story) directed by Junichi Satō (Kaleido Star, Aria, Princess Tutu). Marin and her sister Urin live in the sea until one day when they find a ring and decide to enter the world of the humans to return the ring to its rightful owner, Kanon. In the process, they inadvertently unleash an evil spirit which they must fight to return to his tomb. In the first ever PVC figure of Marin, Yamato presents this charming 1/7 scale (approximately 9.00") PVC statue of Marin in her swimsuit as she joyfully bursts from the sea. Simple, yet intricately detailed, you will marvel at the folds and creases captured in Marin's swimsuit. Window boxed and ready for display, Marin will add some warmth to your winter this year. Available January / February 2010.
