This is Taiga Aisaka who stars as the main character in a manga called "Tora Dora."

Not sure what scale but shes tiny and cute - that facial expression! Kinda reminds me of Zero no Tsukaima Louise with brown hair. Not sure if she's going to be a give away with Dengeki Gao or going for retail? Only time will tell.
If you are going to be at the Wonfes this Sunday then you can see her on display.

I was never for a angry expression in my figures, but it looks like shes pouting which I could go with.  The cat is just too angry lol, needs to have a expression like Maya from Azumanga

Hmm - not that keen on this. Not on my buy list by a mile!
Character design seems a bit basic and the hair looks 'alive'!

awwww it does look cute.
I'm not figure person, but I think this one is very cute and the cat is cute as well. I wonder, does the cat come off? If it does, it might get lost LOL, poor kitty hahahaha

Taiga, Tora, Tiger-striped cat. Okay... Tiger-themed manga? Right?

I don't see figurines with a mad face often, so it is quite a refreshing view. Seeing its size and level of detail, I do admit it's well-done.

But for personal reasons, I am not attracted to that kind of figures. First because both are mad at you, especially the cat which is quite scary but also due to her awkward pose. The way they made her blush is not what I like either.

Random question. Is there is a cast-off option (The cat, naturally. Don't look at me like that. *laughs*)?
It would be nice if it was the same as for the Swimsuit Saber that you reviewed thoroughly a while ago.

If thats a magazine supplement I'm gonna be getting me my first volume of Dengeki gao :P.

They gave a Kudo Little Buster's model with the most recent Dengeki G's, so its possible. (Hope so :P)

I might consider getting her if she won't be a supplement with the mag.

Not a bad figure,

But PVC coupled with a lack of knowledge of the source really pushes this down to the "doesn't really register" pile...

That is definitely the girl from Harry Potter. Same attitude, same cuteness.

Hey, Zero---take it from me, NOTHING in the Philippines is ever the right price. That's why I moved to Melbourne. Unfortunately, there isn't much to buy here... -_-;;;

Overall, the figure actually looks cuter than the acutal character art, if that magazine pic is any indicaiton...

This figure is a win for me. I'm definitely getting her! Max Factory almost always does a great job on their figures, they tend to look even better in person than in their prototype pics. Some may dislike her because of how small she is, but some figures look better when they're a smaller scale and I think she is one of them.
