Following up its successful Story! Image! Figure! EX: Cutie Honey - Kisaragi and Cutie Honey PVC statues, Yamato proudly presents newly crafted renditions of Hurricane Honey and the villainous Sister Jill from Go Nagi's classic anime, Cutie Honey. Sculpted by Japan's renowned "garage kit" artist Hisanori Satōh (Daikokuya-Koubou), these 1/8 scale PVC statues exude every ounce of the sexual style for which Go Nagi is famous. As with Kisaragi and Cutie Honey, Hurricane Honey and Sister Jill come window boxed with interlocking display bases. Figures sold separately.



SIF EX: Please Twins – Karen Onodera & Miina Miyafujii PVC Statue

Crafted by Japan's ZERO (CLUMSY CLAFT), these statues inspired by the hit anime Please Twins (spin-off of Please Teacher!) perfectly capture the mischievous innocence of the two main characters Karen Onodera and Miina Miyafujii.
