Bakuretsu Tenshi Sei 1/8 Scale Swimsuit Figure - Preorder

«©NCSX» Firearms are rare in Japan and uncommon to find outside of the local Yakuza stronghold. This all changes in the Bakuretsu Tenshi (Burst Angel) animated series which debuted in 2004 on TV Asahi. As the story goes, an increase in crime and violence forces the Japanese government to pass a decree which allows average citizens to carry guns. A special task force is also established called RAPT (Recently Armed Police Taskforce) whose mandate is to kill criminals rather than apprehend them. Finally, a third group known as Bai Lan opposes the actions of RAPT - its members are a group of girls with weapons experience.

The leader of Bai Lan is a gal named Sei who's stoic, strong, and reasonably intelligent. None of those qualities matter in Taki Corp's upcoming Sei Swimsuit figure which is sculpted to 1/8 scale and features the Burst Angel heroine in a revealing outfit. The figure is fully painted, assembled and ready for display upon the included circular base. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late April 2009 at JPY7800 or US$82.90 from NCS.
