Young girl fights her mother’s fashion empire. In the hands of a lesser studio, an anime with this surface premise would surely not fare so well, but Studio Trigger managed to create not only one of the most popular anime in recent years, but a fairly critically well-regarded one too. The anime that shows perfect blend of action and comedy dialed up to the extreme clearly resonated with the critics and audience alike. Taking that into consideration, it is not a surprise that the show inspired so many great figures which we are going to present to you today!
5. Kill la Kill Medicom Toy RAH Satsuki Ryuuko Matoi Kamui Senkestu Ver Figure
Crashing onto our opening spot is a figure of Ryuuko from Medicom Toy. This Ryuuko figure was released in late November 2014. Ryuuko is sculpted by Perfect Studio with costume production done by Akimoto Mieko and she is a completely pre-painted ABS and PVC figure with some real fabric parts. The figure is 27 cm (10.5 inches) tall. With this item you will get alternate expressions, alternate eyes, her signature scissor sword, and an articulated stand. This figure also has a RAH body which means it is highly pose-able. To own this Ryuuko figure, you would need to pay up to around 18,000 yen (~ 165 US dollars).
4. Kill la Kill Max Factory Figma Ryuuko Matoi Figure
Once again, we have the figure of the main character Ryuuko Matoi in her Kamui Senketsu form. This figure from Max Factory was released just recently in September 2014. She was sculpted by Masaki Apsy. The figure of Ryuuko is approximately 14,5 cm (approx. 5.7 inches) tall. Because this figure possesses a figma body, it is highly pose-able. A special form of flexible plastic was used in all key areas which made it possible to keep the proportions without sacrificing the pose-ability. The figure comes with clenched teeth and a shouting expression for fighting scenes, while a smiling expression can be used to envision Ryuuko at her happier moments. Her scissor blade is included in both Decapitation Mode and the standard form. Plus, you will get an articulated figma stand! This completely pre-painted PVC and ABS figure can be yours for just around 19,000 yen (~ 174 US dollars).
