No word on what her price will be, but that apparently reservation of her starts on November 25th, which the January issue of Hobby Japan will have the form for her.

I can’t see much for what scale she is, as the paper next to her doesn’t seem to say anything.
The paint job is amazing here! It would also appear that her bottom is cast-off. I will be hunting her down. More pictures of this lovely girl can be found at AkibaHobby
