Alpha Omega is going to release the Neko Musume ( ネコ娘 ) 1/8 PVC figure from the classic manga/anime “Gegege no Kitaro” ( ゲゲゲの鬼太郎 ). Will be released in March 2009. Around 180mm tall, 5,800 yen.
Gegege no Kitaro is a really classic manga/anime. They started in 60’s. I first watched it in 80’s when I was a little kid. This year is actually the 40th anniversary for the Kitaro anime. Wow, 40! I don’t think any Nekomagic reader is older than that. (Oo.
Anyway, this Neko Musume figure is so cute! Alpha Omega made her 500% cuter than in the anime. Well, that mean if you go to watch the anime just because of this figure, then you will be very disappointed. (^^.;

This figure is modeled after the GeGeGe no Kitaro 2007 series Nekomusume, where she is much cuter than in the past series.

I think I should make a poll here to see what’s the age group of our readers are. =P
