NYCC is finally here, which of course means news! There are always a few Bishoujo reveals at every big convention, and this year Kotobukiya brought along the fully sculpted and painted Kitty Pryde prototype. We haven’t even seen rt for her before! Kitty is my favorite female Marvel character, so I am thrilled that she is finally getting a decent figure. The pose and face look great, though the lack of Lockheed makes me sad. Maybe he’ll be added on later! She’s slated for a 2nd quarter 2013 release, so we should be seeing orders soon.
[UPDATE] As Chris mentioned in the comments, we talked to Koto at the show about Lockheed and they confirmed that he will be included in her outstretched hand. Hooray, now she’s even more awesome!
I really hope they add lockheed. Missing him is going to make this an instant pass for a lot of people (Myself included) Despite the fact that I like the overall look. But seriously, Kitty without Lockheed is like having The New Testament without Jesus. You really can’t have one without the other.
Her outstretched arm makes it look like Lockheed could be placed there. Maybe they will add him to the final product?
If they don’t do that, I will probably pass on this one. I’m not really feeling it.
actually I just got off the phone with Leah who is still at the show and yes, Lockheed is going to be part of the finished piece. He just isn’t finished yet. so YAY!
YES!
Thanks for the great news!
