Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann Yoko MMS Figure - New

When it comes to posable consumer toys from Japan, NCS is of the opinion that Max Factory's Figma series lords over Kaiyodo's Revoltech and Konami's MMS lines. They're all good but Figma has an edge in terms of quality and ease of posing. It's a shame that Yoko Ritona of Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann fame hasn't been Figma-tized yet but until that happens, we have Yoko MMS. Last year, Konami released a "Multi-Movable System" version of Yoko which sold out fairly quickly but Konami ships a reproduction of the figure for fans who were late to the party.

The MMS version of Yoko measures 15cm tall and features jointed limbs so the figure may be posed in a variety of action stances. In addition to the figure, a rifle accessory is included in the package so Yoko can ape Rambo or Arnold before he went into politics. An extra face and hair, two extra pairs of hands, and a mini mole-mascot named Buta are also included.
