volks_kirameki_yoko_box_hj_limited_version_garage_resin_kit

This Volks 1/8-Scale Kirameki Yoko Box HJ Limited Version Resin Kit is a Hobby Japan mail order exclusive item. This guitar-strumming version of Yoko is based on the song called Pieces of Sweet Stars which is sung by Inoue Marina, who is the voice actress of Yoko in Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

Kirameki Yoko Box will measure 10.5cm and will be available exclusively through mail order from 25th September onwards for 10,500 YEN ($105).

Also check out the Pieces of Sweet Stars song below. It’s got a catchy and playful vibe to it. Almost makes me wanna buy the kit.

The Dollfie Dream (DD) Dynamite Yoko figure from Volks has just recently been released. Admittedly, most male figure and statue collectors aren’t big fans of Volks’ dolls, and I can understand why since these are more like dolls. But I have a feeling they’re slowly gaining new fans since Danny of Dannychoo.com has been featuring these on his site quite often ever since he was bitten by the “doll bug”.

From what I understand the Dynamite term in Volks’ Dollfie Dream line basically refers to a new body type with massive boobs. Hence the Dynamite reference..lol. And Yoko here would make the perfect candidate doncha think?

Not sure if Volks USA is still taking orders for it so if you’re interested in picking one up, your best bet would be to head over to Yahoo! Auctions Japan and go through a deputy service like Rinkya or Shopping Mall Japan. Dark Dollhouse has posted lots of pictures of the doll itself so be sure to head over if you’d like more pictures of this busty rifle-toting babe.

Here’s a Yoko Littner figure that will cost a pretty penny. That’s because it’s a resin kit (Not PVC Figure) which will be produced in extremely limited numbers and is a Volks retail & online shop exclusive. Kit will retail for 10,500 YEN ($100) but will be quite impossible to obtain if you don’t live in Japan.

Here’s another PVC Figure from the anime Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. There has been close to about a gazillion different Yoko figures out now, but if I’m not mistaken this is the first figure of Viral. Viral is one of the villains in the anime. Oh well, at least now we know ugly villains with a mix of shark and cat DNA will not get as much PVC love as a skimpily-dressed sniper sporting a huge-ass rifle. In any case, this first attempt by Uplark at this formidable villain looks like a good one based on pictures of the finished product. Viral should be available sometime on September 2009 for a price of about $90.

alter_gurren_lagann_yoko_littner_bounty_hunter_of_mystery_pvc_figure

Alter has yet another winner in this 1/8-Scale Yoko Littner - Bounty Hunter of Mystery PVC Figure. Yoko is the sexy sniper gun-totting character from 2007’s hit anime Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. IMHO, this has got to be the best looking Yoko figure so far, and that’s saying alot since there’s already been quite a few outstanding Yoko figures out there.

And below are some smokin’ hot Yoko cosplayers. I guess we’ll have to agree that no matter if it’s real-life or 1/8 plastic, you just can’t go wrong with Yoko. Wish it’s my gun she’s holding instead.
