Ok, now, I normally don't do weekend posts, but I got an e-mail that inspired me to get off my ass, stop easting greasy American crap, and make a post. What in the world could stop an American from wallowing in a bed of its own filth, you ask? Well, the answer, of course, is a Mikuru PVC! That's right I said PVC. Something us unartful idiots can buy and just stick on a shelf. It might be a resin kit, but the single picture I have makes it a bit hard to tell. So it might be a resin kit. Nuke, the awesome pimp who sent this in, says he thinks it might be 1/6. I'm having trouble finding a good reference in the picture for that, but I'm sure he's using complex math and physics based on the minor reflection and the size of the letters. It's fine, you wouldn't understand. Anyway, more details for this as I get them via e-mail. I'm not going to dig arround right now. The figure itself looks good, except for the stockings which just aren't a good color. Ah well, it captures Mikuru pretty accurately.
There's a picture for you homos after the jump. I'm posting this under the Wonder Festival category even though it was likely at Comiket. I'm sure we'll see more of it though. Yay WanFesu! Thanks a ton to Nuke. He always sends the best stuff.
UPDATE: Via BlckKnght in the comments, and further via AoMM, there is a page with info on the figure. It does come in three colors. White looks the best. All three colors come out at the same time this November for 7,140 yen. There are more pictures on the site linked, but I'm not going to post them here in the interests of waiting until I get some good quality shots of the figure. You all understand, I'm sure.

Hmm odd, my memory is like swiss cheese with this, but I think this had 3 versions, 3 colors (white, black, red) to be exact. Someone please confirm my poor memory :P

Check out AoMM, which has links to find out details about the model:

It's only 7140 (plus shipping of course). Not bad at all.

I heard that you can only get the white one if you pre-order it from Chara-Ani.
