In what marks a first for Kaiyodo’s Bome Collection line of PVC figures, over the weekend their most recent installment (#26 Akira) was put on display at the company’s Hobby Lobby location in Akihabara accompanied by the revelation that her top is castoffable (Moeyo coverage, Akiba OS coverage). We scooped her production at Wonder Festival this past summer, and new information reveals that she is an original character first released by Bome as a garage kit at the same event in 1999, now presesnted as part of his signature PVC lineup and scheduled for release in December. This revelation is sure to increase demand for what was otherwise a figure I think many of us would have overlooked; she’s available for preorder from Play Asia right now if you’d like to support HD with your purchase. This is one we’ll be keeping an eye on as her sales date approaches. (no more)
Heh….so Kaiyodo has realized that boobies make money…..
I fully support the castoffability of all figures.
Nice and all, but I do wish they wouldn’t cover them up…makes it harder to know if the section is that good or not.
But still, I’ll probably try to put this up on my preorder (a first for me – I haven’t ever bought a Bome figure).
Wow a Bome with castoffs, looks like another one to add to the Bome PVC’s I’ve collected already.
I remember grabbing a peak of this somewhere not long ago and wasn’t really interested, but a castoff feature makes it much more desirable, anything extra is a good thing.

She somewhat remember me, Parsley, a character from a hentai anime named El. Perhaps Bome has her in mind when designing this figure, perhaps not. Anyway she is a must buy for me.
Just need to wait until she’s actually available…
Bome did release Jungle Emi with a cast-off before…Hope they continue with the cast-off trend… ^_^
Huh? I didn’t know Jungle Emi is castoffable. I still have her and her sister combat Emi mint in the box on display on my desk. :o
Thanks, LC.
One of these days, I ought to save up enough and get a proper showcase cabinet…
Ahh, I forgot about Jungle Emi’s castoffability. Thanks for bringing it up, L.C.
Hmm…I just picked up the American version of this one released by Diamond…but I don’t think that one is cast-offable…
My bome vol 26 do not have cast off feature for the clothing. Or maybe I dont know how to do it? I look at the figure very carefully and trying to find out how to remove the clothing but have no luck.
