More Details

From the popular light novel, ‘Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai’, comes a 1/7th scale figure of the main heroine from the show who has a wonderful appearance, but a rather dislikable personality – Yozora Mikaduki.

The figure brings out her stunning good looks, and is posed with crossed arms and an expression that really brings out her personality as well. She might have a disappointed expression across her face, but fans of the series certainly won’t be disappointed by this figure!

She comes with her “air Tomo friend”. Well folks who watched the anime will know what I mean xD.

More Details

From the anime seires, ‘Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai!’ comes a Nendoroid of the powerful fighter Momoyo Kawakami, the oldest member of the Kawakami family.

She comes with three expressions, including a standard confident looking expression, an upset looking expression and finally an adorable embarrassed expression.
