Kotobukiya is going to release the ARTFX BISHOUJO Jaina Solo ( ジェイナ・ソロ ) 1/7 PVC Pre-painted Easy Assembling Kit from the movie “Star Wars” ( スター・ウォーズ ). Will be released in November 2012. Around 230mm tall, 6,800 yen.

Here comes a new figure series “ARTFX BISHOUJO” by Kotoubkiya! Like the “DC Comics Bishoujo Statue” and “Marvel Bishoujo Statue” series, seems like this series will be focusing on the US characters and Shunya Yamashita will be the illustrator.
Instead of an usual “PVC figure”, Kotobukiya make it “PVC Pre-painted Easy Assembling Kit”. I guess it means she will come with her head or arms or upper and lower body detached like trading figure and we will need to assemble her together.

quite the beauty. marveling at the nice details youd usually find on higher teir koto products.
Since it’s Koto making it, I really hope that they keep the quality but I’m a bit worried because kit pieces don’t always fit quite right.
I’m a big star wars fan and Jaina is one of my favorite characters. But I don’t like this figure. I just really don’t like the face. ‘Tis a shame this is probably the best Jaina figure that will ever come out.
It’s because its a Yamashita figure I bet.
I thought this figure was already released?
Maybe I’m tripping, eh.
I really like the pose!
**cross fingers**
princess leia slave….
Wha… Yesss. I’m definitely buying that!
Consider it sold!
Okay, things I like about this figure: Excellent details, character is actually mostly dressed, and she’s from a franchise I adore.
things I don’t like about this figure: I have no idea who she is. Why pick a character who isn’t in the movies, the derivative work? Instead I get this unwanted, “Hey, remember SW? Well, here’s a cute girl who’s tangentially connected to it! Tits and a vague connection to an iconic series. What more could you want!”
I’d probably like this girl, but since I’ve yet to read any of the supplementary books attached to the franchise… yeah. Not doin’ it for me. And yeah, Yamashita, I’m still bitter about that X-23 figure fiasco.
Looks awesome. One of the best looking from the Bishoujo line. So its not pre-assembled? Sounds like Kotobukiya is cutting labor costs for assembly.
What no levitating lightsabre? It Leia and Hans daughter. I think she’s cute, but not Star Wars enough. Seriously she looks like she would fit in nicely with the Ghostbusters chick. I like her face, it’s got more personality than X-23’s insipid expression (whom i still love and adore)If their doing Star Wars give us a range of Padme and Leia figurines, or Mara Jade, she’d be fun.
Soon these guys throw a Dart voder (remembering Mother, not Father (Vader))
Terrible!
