Hatsune Miku Joins METAL BUILD As Line's First Female Character
The first female character in METAL BUILD arrives in a line known for mecha, and the cloth costume plus wired twin-tails show the figure is being sold on poseability rather than die-cast heft alone.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
BANDAI SPIRITS will release METAL BUILD Hatsune Miku on October 24, priced at 36,300 yen. The figure stands about 180mm and is built from ABS, die-cast and PVC. It comes with a cloth costume, twin-tails made of PVC sheet with internal wire, an acoustic gadget shaped like a long rifle, three interchangeable face parts, a headdress hair part and two backpacks.
The product page lists a set that goes well past the figure itself: interchangeable hand parts for each side, a right wrist armor piece, interchangeable twin-tails, and a stand. The bare skin at the back and the joints carry mechanical arrangements, and the body is built to bend far backward as well as forward.
BANDAI SPIRITS prices it at 36,300 yen with tax included and sells it as a general retail product. The cloth costume is the part that carries the posing, since the figure can be dressed and still articulated.
