Since the quality of figma is going downhill, I told myself to give up on figma and focus on Nendoroid. But this Princess of the Crystal is so pretty!!! (@@. I like the “Mawaru Penguindrum” anime a lot and I really want to get this.

However the price is really not poor-man friendly. 4,572 yen is so ripoff IMO. I really don’t understand why she cost as much as the figma KOS-MOS ver. 4 which came with tons of accessories. I guess I’ll just skip her and wait for the Nendoroid instead. =P

——Description from Manufacturer——

Shall we initiate the survival strategy?

From the popular anime series, ‘Mawaru Penguin Drum’ comes a figma of the Princess of the Crystal – the mysterious personality that takes over Himari Takakura’s body whenever she puts on the penguin hat!

  • Using the smooth yet poseable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
  • A flexible plastic is used for specific areas, which allows proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
  • She comes with a standard expression, a condescending expression befitting of a princess and a shouting face to pose her in her signature pose.
  • The three penguins are included and can carry the Princess on their heads. They also comes with insecticide and a hand mirror as optional parts.
  • She comes with different arms and an extra skirt part, allowing you to pose her without her entire outfit.
  • A poseable figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.


“I~~ma~~gine!!”


“Listen, you lowlifes who will never amount to anything.”


“I have come from the destination of your fate.”


“Obtain the Penguin Drum.”


“Let’s initiate the Survival Strategy.”
