Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I’m really bad at Othello… however I’m not bad at Tetris! Puyopuyo is pretty much impossible for me… and when playing Super Smash Bros I’ll tend to get knocked off the screen within the first five seconds.
But anyway, today we’re going to look at a product announced today…
| From the anime series ‘Miss Monochrome -The Animation-‘ comes a Nendoroid of the android aspiring to be a popular idol, Miss Monochrome! Monochrome’s close family member ‘Ru-chan’ as well as alkaline batteries and a battery box to keep her powered are all included as optional parts.
A winking expression is also included to recreate the popular dance scene from the ending theme. The Nendoroid box seen in the anime is also included, allowing Miss Monochrome to take pride in her accomplishment of becoming a Nendoroid! |
Isn’t she just adorable?! （*´▽｀*）
The android aiming to an an idol who wants to be in the spotlight, Miss Monochrome as a Nendoroid!
Her black and white chequered skirt as well as the mechanical bits on her outfit are all faithfully preserved in Nendoroid form!
*Miss Monochrome preparing to attempt a robot dance!*
The twintails are both fitted with a Nendoroid joint for easy posing! ♪
Plus her important family member Ru-chan is also included! ♡
In this photo Ru-chan is wedged in-between the base and her feet to display her standing on top of him! (｀・ω・´)ゞ
In the anime, Miss Monochrome was able to become a Nendoroid thanks to the help of a mysterious yellow creature! So it only makes sense to take a photo with a mysterious yellow creature too! ★
*wooser in danger of being sucked up by Ru-chan*
By the way… if you turn Ru-chan over… you’ll notice he is fitted it’s some small wheels to ride along on! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ
If you give it a little push it continues to roll forward a little bit! It’s amazing how such simple gimmicks can be so much fun! ♥
But don’t be too rough… Monochrome is quick to protect her Ru-chan!
“Stop. Don’t be mean to Ru-chan.”
Yep! She also comes with parts to hold onto Ru-chan for even more options while posing!
(・∀・) “She comes with lots of other fun parts too!!”
Today we’re joined by Hamako from the planning team!
(・∀・) “First off… take a look at this! ♡”
Ru-chan and… a Nendoroid package?!
(・∀・) “Making use of the design from the anime series, the design team created an an authentic Nendoroid-sized Nendoroid box for Miss Monochrome!”
Nendoroid #4696! Just like from the series!
(・∀・) “The images on the package are the original Nendoroid images sued for her design, but other than that it’s pretty much just what you’d expect to see on a normal-sized Nendoroid package!”
Is the package made from… paper?
(・∀・) “No no, it’s plastic! The box will come blank with stickers, so you’ll need to stick them on yourself to complete the packaging!”
Phew… I thought it was paper at first, so I was worried it was going to get crushed or damaged in production! (*´Д｀)=з
Her winking expression is so cute!!! (*´Д`)
(・∀・) “Of all the Nendoroid projects I’ve worked on… this was one I really pushed to get her looking as adorable as possible! ♡”
She can even be posed in the ‘bang’ scene from the ending theme!
(・∀・) “Special parts are included to recreate this pose making it a simple task! The bent legs are also so cute! So cute!!“
She really is just too adorable!! ＜●＞＜●＞
(・∀・) “But that’s still not all… next up we have this battery and battery box!
The manganese cell battery that powers Miss Monochrome is also included!
*Showing off her battery to wooser*
(・∀・) “The battery can also be stored inside of the battery box!”
Plus it even opens and closes!
All the little extras really help to bring out the atmosphere of the Miss Monochrome universe! (σ・∀・)σ
Grab her and keep her as your very own idol!
She is up for preorder from today! ♡

(・∀・) “I’ve got one extra thing to add! Orders from the Good Smile Online Shop will include an extra! A special publicity photo print of Miss Monochrome! More details including the appearance will be announced on the GSC homepage shortly, so keep your eyes open!”
A ‘publicity photo’ really makes it sound that her dream of being in the spotlight has already come true! As soon as the images are revealed we’ll let everyone know via Twitter too! (o・ω・o)
