Product Description

From the Manufacturer

A Kotobukiya Japanese import! At last, from the mega-popular Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann anime series created by Gainax comes Yoko! A heroine of nearby Littner village, the bikini-wearing expert marksman Yoko battles alongside Simon & Kamina to free humanity in the action-packed series. Yoko takes a well-deserved reak from fighting Beastmen, perched on a stool with the tiny Boota on her knee. Her right boot discarded on the floor, the warrior releaxes her left hand at her neck scarf. The marksman of Littner's skimpy outfit is recreated in perfect detail, and her long tendril of bright red hair floats behind her. Yoko comes with alternate faces so you can display her with the expression of your choice: smiling or winking. She also has multiple hair accessories, including pins and skull barrettes. Yoko's enormous sniper rifle is removable and she comes armed with additional optional weapons! Sculpted by Tsukuru Shirahige, Yoko is approximately 9.5 inches tall (large 1/6 scale) sitting down, and is constructed of PVC plastic.

This review is from: Gurren Lagann Movie: Yoko Ani-Statue (Toy)

As a big fan of the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann series and characters, especially Yoko, I knew that she will eventually make it to my collection. At 1/6 scale, it a sizable figure and the attention to detail makes this an awesome sculpt of Yoko. The fact that she comes with interchangeable faces (winking, smiling) and hair clips (winking, normal and crazy eyes) means you can customize her appearance to your taste. The paint is smooth and colors work great. Yoko sits atop a clear base which is subtle and her pose is cute and flirty. I love the way her hair is long and flowing. It's a bit red but for whatever reason, it looks perfect on her. Her scarf is removable but you will need to remove her head to do so, but why would you? Her rifle is extremely detailed down to the bullets in the chamber, strap and scope. One of her boots is separate and lays by figure to get her the sense of Yoko relaxing after a long day fighting the Gunmen.

As a collector, I've read reviews of each product before I buy them so that I can maximize my funds to make an informed purchase because these figures do get quite expensive. After scouring for information on this Yoko figure and then finally ordering her, I can safely say that it was one of my best purchases.

The service through Amazon has been great and the seller delivered her in a protective box with speedy service. Highly recommended if you deciding between several other figures, you won't be disappointed. =)

This review is from: Gurren Lagann Movie: Yoko Ani-Statue (Toy)

As a fan of well made figures, I have to say that this is one of the finest that I own. Yoko is solid and very highly detailed with many options for customization. Her gun is very detailed and it seems as though much thought was put into every detail from the quality of the paint on the scope down to the chambered rounds in the clip of the rifle.

If I were forced to come up with any downside to this figure it would be in the craftsmanship of the gun as I do find it comes apart a little too easily at times but overall this figure really is excellent and I would bot hesitate to recommend this figure to anyone.
