Alter updated their official site this afternoon with product entries for two new PVC figures slated for June release. The first is Siesta, clad in her maid uniform from Zero no Tsukaima; sculpt is from JUN, and she’s 1/8 scale (20 cm tall) with a retail price of 5,775 yen. The second is Kirijou Mitsuru from Persona 3, who comes with two alternate arm configurations (handgun and rapier). She stands at 21 cm tall (1/8 scale), and retails at 6,090 yen. Sculpt is from Saitou Fumiki (Ingaouhou). Preorders are already open at Moe Soul for both Siesta and Mitsuru, and should be up elsewhere soon. (no more)
zero’s figures are coming along slowly after a slew of Louise finally lol
Wonder if she will be cast-off-able?
Where is Lily Salvatana!? haha
Siesta? AWESOME. I’m probably down for one of those.
As Alter has never produced a castoff figure, and there’s never been a castoff figure made of an 0nT character, I think the odds of a castoffable Siesta are virtually zero, alas. :(
It looks like a nice figure regardless of castoffability though, in my opinion.
hmm I think one of the Louise figures that Kotobukiya produced was cast-offable, if only her cape and skirt. That’s the only one that comes to mind though.
I like the way Siesta’s pokin through her blouse lol. I have a bit of a fetish for that kind of thing haha
Siesta!!!

The braless wet T-shirt fetish huh? Cool. 8)
I guess that’s as close as you’ll get from Alter. Too bad as it has the best Kanu, imo. Maybe I’ll overlook the missing castoff and get it, if some spare cash were to come up (like the stock market recovering…) 8)
Siesta does look gorgeous but a bit plain imo. I’m still skeptical in getting her or not depending on the other figs releases in the coming months.
Dam, i can see my wallet crying already. lol
Yes~! Siesta is finally here! Hopefully there will be more of her :D
We need a cast-off Seista figure . . .
No love for Mitsuru?! Well, at least she’s on my must buy list! Siesta is tempting but unfortunately I shall pass.
>>loplop
We need a cast-off Kirche figure… <-- fixed for me ;_;
holy crap, that Mitsuru is so much better than the Koto version. I mean, damn I already bought that one recently, and then this comes out. Well guess I’m gonna have 2 now =(
And yeah, Siesta, cool.
Mitsuru from Alter is definitely awesome… I really hope that I’ll be able to afford her when she comes out.

“there’s never been a castoff figure made of an 0nT character, I think the odds of a castoffable Siesta are virtually zero, alas. :(”
The Louise Little Devil/Sweet White versions castoff. Nipples aren’t painted though, but they are hidden by her hair anyway.

Thanks for the clarification, I’d forgotten about the koakuma version. Still, my premonition is that they’re never going to cross the ero line with an 0nT figure regardless of whether a particular article of clothing is removable; I hope some maker eventually proves me wrong, but odds are against that maker being Alter.
