Today we’ll be taking a look at the Nendoroid that featured on today’s live broadcast, and who will be coming up for preorder soon:
From Mawaru Penguindrum:
Nendoroid Princess of the Crystal!
A Nendoroid of the mysterious character that appeared whenever Himari put on the penguin hat! Every detail about her and her outfit has been preserved in Nendoroid form, and you can even recreate the famous scene where she descends from the stairs!
She also comes with penguins 1, 2 and 3!
These penguins were so cute in the series that I huge felt like hugging them every time I saw them – the Nendoroid versions have come out just as cute, and they’re so fun to play with!
This is how she looks from the back!
The long ‘tails’ on her hat are connected with Nendoroid joints for some interesting poses – you can move them back and forward for some really dynamic poses! The little white balls at the end of them also have a really nice paint coating that make them look like little pearls – they look absolutely gorgeous!
The penguins of course are all labeled on their backs with the white magic marker!
The transformation scene!
One thing almost everyone remembers about Penguindrum is the amazing transformation scene! I’m glad the head of planning for this figure, Shuu-chan, thought to include all sorts of parts to help recreate the transformation process in Nendoroid form!
A shouting face, bent arm, and puffed out skirt to recreate her arrival pose! （・Θ・）ｷｭ
Step one of the transformation!
Both arms lifted up in the air with one bent leg stepping forward! You can also bent the hat joints back to really create a pose filled with dynamic energy!!
She even comes with clear effect parts on her upper arm to show the frills disappearing as a part of her transformation! Σ(・∀・ )
Walking gracefully down the stairs!
Another scene that will stick in many fans minds is that of the Princess slowly stepping down the stairs! You can pose her with her hands on her waist to bring the pose together perfectly!
Step three of the transformation!
The frills on her arms, skirt and scarf have all disappeared at this stage of the transformation! It is a prototype, so I couldn’t be too rough with my poses, but on the final version I’m sure you could bend her neck back even further!
“Shall we initiate the survival strategy?”
She can even stand on top of penguin #1 and #3!
A very important pose! The stand included is the normal arm stand, but it allows you to easily recreate this pose! Of course #2 needs to stand behind to press the button to drop the visitors!
The panties that she shows off so openly are of course lovely triple-laced panties!
Her hat can be completely removed!
Normally it wouldn’t really make sense to remove the hat while Himari is in this form…. but with a figure, it doesn’t matter! It’s amazing how much more she suddenly looks like Himari-chan once you remove the hat!
To help recreate the Takakura household, I found a low dining table! It suits her so well – now I just need to find some curry to place on the table with her!
From Mawaru Penguindrum:
