Exelica from the game Trigger Heart Exelica. I know nothing of the game apart from that its an arcade shoot em up - video at the end of this post. The weapons used in the game look awesome.

This gorgeous mecha type musume is being brought to us by Alter and is going to be released in December. Looks like she comes with a ton O weapons and is also going to cost a ton O money retailing at 15,540 yen. Will probably get to see her in the flesh at the Wonfes next weekend.

I love side-scrolling shooters, shame its not mainstream anymore. I like the figure, some major detail crammed into her backpack. Do you play in the arcades danny?

I think I played this in Japan. At least i remembered the ship flinging which was kinda unique.

The game reminds me of the old 2D shooting game in the arcade with the fighter jet.  But this seems interesting with being able to throw/use planes to your whim.  I would play it if I could get my hands on it.  But the figure itself is too expensive for me, but it is on my wish list...just going to wait for a huge discount.

I would really really like to get her but at 15k yen she's just too costly and she also looks like gonna take up a whole lot of space

RIP Dreamcast.

that's a cute and moelicious mecha musume but her mecha designs somehow looks like Xenogear-ish ^^

Y15,000+ is a bit too much but what's the scale of it?

amazing looking shmup... love the idea of grabbing enemy ships to use as weapons and shields... though i'm pretty sure that's "borrowed" from some shmup i used to waste my youth trying to beat yonks ago, lol...

touhou rocks!

Gonna pre-order asap. The game also looks amazing. Hopefully more dreamcast games will be made in the future because of this game.

The game looks pretty cool I also like the grabbing of enemies and using them. The player also seems to be looking for a free path through all of the shooting and there always seems to be a free path through.

Should try the game when I'm in Japan again ;p (can't they make a PS2,Wii or DS version of it? ;p)

won't they be releasing a home version of the game? It's running on a NAOMI board so they can easily sell the GD ROM to those of us with Dreamcasts still. ^_^

Definitely on my buy list. I just hope they'll make her partners as well.

Cool, an interesting looking game and a great figure.

What more do you need?

Besides being able to afford either?

Alter do seem to make the better figures.
Although good smile have done some good stuff too.

But this one is a PVC and not very *wow* for me, so I'll probably give it a miss. Maybe a resin kit if i find one...

The game and the figure looks amazing.  Would love to play this game.  I got hooked after watching the video. ^^ heheh. They should make more shooters like this one. I'm a sucker for shooters.

Man, looking at this figure even more makes me wanna import the game. I played this game at one of the "cons" I went to and it is a awesome game. Also gives me a g00d reason to get the figure.

Now, where did I put my Dreamcast?

This figure made my jaw drop because of two things...
1. Totally cool figure
2. Totally crazy price
But I think the ammunition and weapons are probably the thing that is adding more 0s on the price tag...
