KING OF PRISM by PrettyRhythm
Kazuki Nishina Battle Suit Ver.
Alexander Yamato Battle Suit Ver.

The “street charismatic” Kazuki Nishina and the “street tyrant” Alexander Yamato from the movie KING OF PRISM by PrettyRhythm are figures featuring the battle suits that they wear during dance battles.
The difference in the coloring in the materials of the armored and suit portions have been replicated in these figures. The figures aimed to achieve proper balance in color and a glossiness with sensible glimmer. They were made to emulate a sweaty appearance during a dance battle and expresses dynamism through the slight glossiness in their skin.
Kazuki was made focusing on his supple, toned muscles and the accurate movements of his fingers. Alex was made with muscles that have been trained to their utmost limits and powerful posing. They are masterpieces packed with their own respective individualities and charms, so definitely don’t miss out on them!

Momohime – Hot Springs Ver. –

A bath scene from the supremely popular game Muramasa: The Demon Blade has been made into a figure series and the popular “Momohime” is the first installment of the – Hot Springs Ver. – series with an all-new appearance.
The figure was successfully made with original technology newly developed by AMAKUNI to appear as if there are water droplets on her skin. The concept of the figure is to express the shininess of one’s skin after taking a bath.
The way each figure is presented will differ due to each water droplet being carefully added to the figure by hand during the manufacturing process. There truly is only one of each figure in the world. It is a figure that is handmade just for you.
