Goodsmile Company: Max Factory 1/6 "Real Image" Yoko Is A Different Take On Yoko Littner [pvc beauty]

One reason why Gurren Lagann is popular with the guys, apart from the over-the-top mechas, is the red-haired female sniper Yoko Littner.

There's already a wide assortment of figures of her from various manufacturers, Alter and Kotobukiya just to name a few. And this here is Max Factory's take. Dubbed the "real image" version, it is a different take on Yoko, choosing to ditch her anime looks for a more human and life-like representation. She will also be in 1/6 scale, something not quite common for PVC anime figures.

While this figure looks good, personally, I think it has lost its, for lack for a better word, "Yoko-ness". Although the figure in question here has Yoko's trademark red hair and oversize sniper gun, it just doesn't give off the same vibe and feeling. Nonetheless, completist would definitely not want to miss out on this.

She's set for a September 09 release and will set you back ¥9,800 (S$151). More photos here.
