The growing popularity of the shipgirl-focused mobile game Azur Lane put it firmly on the radar of Japanese figure manufacturers, and another one is up for pre-order.
This time around we get a new figure portraying Yamashiro in her bridal skin produced by FuRyu.
She’s up for pre-order on Ami Ami for 23,980 yen, which translates approximately into $223. The release window is January 2021.
The scale is 1/7 for approximately 270 mm in height, and the prototype was sculpted by Fujiyama moineau and painted by sera in cooperation with Connect Rect.
You can check out a gallery below to see what she looks like. Interestingly, it appears that the hood of her cape can be removed.
If you’re unfamiliar with Azur Lane, it’s is a free-to-play mobile horizontal scrolling shooter/RPG hybrid currently available for iOS and Android.
If you’re not into mobile games, Idea Factory International recently launched Azur Lane: Crosswave for PS4 and PC, with a Nintendo Switch version coming down the line. We’re also still waiting for the DLC in the west.
