Bandai is going to release the Figuarts ZERO Sheryl Nome ( シェリル・ノーム ) Shine of Valkyria ( シャイン・オブ・ヴァルキュリア ) non-scale PVC figure from the anime movie “Macross Frontier The Movie: The Wings of Goodbye” ( 劇場版マクロスF -サヨナラノツバサ- ). Will be released in April 2012. Around 170mm tall, 4,500 yen.
**Ranka Lee sold separately**
Maybe I’m biased, persoanlly I think Bandai is really not good at making girl figures. They should just let Megahouse do the girl figure and Bandai themselves should focus on the gunpla, saint Seiya, SIC…etc figures. =P

has that Ranka figure been announced yet?
No, not yet.
I see your point…. =\
Once again Bandai f’s up on Sheryl’s face… Ranka’s looks fine though…
I’m NOT gonna buy this… made a huge mistake in buying Sheryl and Ranka from their last release = it was a total F**k up. The beta looked great, the live was absolutely terrible.
I think the face is fine. I do know that bandai doesnt make the best female figures but for the 3300 yen i paid for her youll hear no complaints from me.
The face was fine for the previous one. It came out live and it looks like she got beat with an ugly stick.
I got lucky and I eBay’ed it off in a month – but I aint buying a bandai item again.
