But apparently Wing is already hard at work with promotional images of all their new ladies! We’ll start with Fiona, since there are two of her. The first, designed by Kazama Raita at 1/7 scale, is almost ready for orders and will retail for ¥8,800 with a June release. The second, designed by Shunya Yamashita, is still in the grey prototype stage but my goodness she is gorgeous! I really hope they make the other 2 girls from the art as well.</p> <p>Then we have two figures in the S.K series, Asuna and Mikoto Misaka. I have the S.K Soniko and she’s a real cutie, very poseable without losing the chibi proportions. I am definitely looking forward to Asuna!
