The shipgirl-focused mobile game Azur Lane is becoming more and more popular in Japan, so it isn’t surprising that figure manufacturers continue to portray its waifus.
This time around we get a figure portraying Akagi in her Paradise Amaryllis bikini from Wave.
It’s now available for pre-orders via retauilers including Ami Ami, where you can find it at 13,660 yen, translating roughly into $126.
She’s part of Wave’s DreamTech line, and she’s sculpted by Yozo Ogawa. The 1/8 scale results in 24 cm of charming PVC and ABS.
If you want to see what she looks like, you can enjoy a gallery below.
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.
