You can pose her in all sorts of poses that became popular from a number of her songs!<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-size: medium;\">I know many of you have been waiting for her!! \u30fd(\uff9f\u2200\uff9f)\uff89<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There have been requests for a Nendoroid of GUMI for ages, and now we are finally able to bring her to the fans!! Apologies for the long wait!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/0\/8\/08a4be3f.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"003\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"491\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">This is how she looks from the back!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Her hair has such a nice vivid green color, and even the little stand of hair coming off to the side has been faithfully kept in Nendoroid form! The tips of the hair are much darker with a gradient effect becoming lighter toward the center of her hair. Her outfit also looks lovely and detailed!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/d\/2\/d27caaf3.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"004\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"509\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">Recreate the illustration on the packaging!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Using the two bent arms you can pose her with her hands pressing the buttons on her headphones &#8211; the same pose from the Megpoid packaging! The actual illustration is a head-on frontal picture, but I decided to take a picture at a slight angle instead. She is also making use of the bent left leg part to really complete the pose!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/e\/8\/e8bd815c.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"006\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"522\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">A winking expression and &#8216;Kira&#8217; pose!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure some of the fans will get the reference here, but I&#8217;m not going to expain it any further than that. :P<\/p>\n<p>This pose actually makes use of another bent left arm different from the one used in the above photo, as well as special hand parts!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/9\/e\/9e48a973.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"005\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"536\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">You can display her wearing the goggles!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The goggles are included like this as an expression part, with the ones on her head being removable for a pose like this. This pose also makes use of a second type of bent arms, as well as the pointing hand parts to hold up her goggles with one hand, and her other hands held to her hips! You can get all sorts of poses out of the arms and hands included with her!<\/p>\n<p>I also only just realized, but even though the figure is seperable at the waist, you can still clearly make out the line from her hips to her legs! Ageta-san really is an amazing sculptor!!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/8\/c\/8c88ae12.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"007\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"517\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s still more!!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">A chibi expression and giant carrot!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>GUMI comes with a total of four expressions!! \u00a0\u03a3(\uff9f\u2200\uff9f )<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s always great to have more variety!! Plus she comes with a giant carrot to contrast with the eggplant used by Gackpo! She can also be posed riding on the carrot just as Gackpo could be posed riding on his eggplant! You can connect the carrot to the Nendoroid stand to kind of make it look the carrot is soaring through the sky! She looks so cute!!\uff08\u00b4\u2200\uff40\uff09<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pict\" src=\"http:\/\/livedoor.blogimg.jp\/gscmikatan\/imgs\/2\/1\/21006c4b.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"008\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"515\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Nendoroid Gakupo was shipped out from GSC today!!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Gakupo here is in fact an early sample that arrived the other day.

The sizes between the product and prototype were a little different, but at release they should be completely compatible with one and other.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong style=\"font-size: small;\">Also, a quick warning about Kamui!
