1/8 Misaka Mikoto & Little Sister Set PVC [Normal Edition] http://zotaku.com/2011/05/20/18-misaka-mikoto-little-sister-set-pvc-normal-edition/ http://zotaku.com/2011/05/20/18-misaka-mikoto-little-sister-set-pvc-normal-edition/#comments Fri, 20 May 2011 01:49:53 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/?p=14660 Penguin Parade is taking preorders of Misaka Mikoto and Little Sister Set from the series Toaru Majutsu no Index II. Do note that if you want both Misaka Mikoto and Imouto together you need to purchase two of the figurines. The sister parts is given together with the figurine – hence you can either have Misaka Mikoto or Imouto. That explains the higher pricing as compared to Kuroko.

Figure: Misaka Mikoto & Little Sister Set PVC [Normal Edition]
Manufacturer: Penguin Parade
Scale: 1/8 (Approximately 210 mm)
Release Date: September 2011
Retail Price: 9,240 yen
Preorder at: CDJapan, HobbyLink Japan, Hobby Search

Tokiwadai`s most powerful Electromaster!

The popular anime `Toaru Majutsu no Index II` comes a 1/8th scale figure of Mikoto Misaka, the student from Tokiwadai middle school. She has been posed in a determined looking pose to bring out her confident personality.
She also comes with replaceable parts that allow you to change the figure into one of her ‘little sister’ clones! Even a giant sniper rifle for the little sister to hold is included – it’s like getting two figures in one! Be sure to display her together with the Kuroko Shirai figure that is due to be released at same time!

Oh tempting! Big fan of Onee-sama. I prefer the Amiami Limited Edition though.. but I am likely to miss out on this completely as the figurine doesn’t seemed to be worth the money >_<.
