First scooped back at Wonder Festival, a GA Graphic update tonight brings the latest word on Toy’sworks‘ Yui and Minori PVCs from Dengeki Moeoh serialized manga and ecchi OVA Koharu Biyori. We initially reported that they’d be selling for 6,800 yen each, but it seems that price has been revised upward to 7,800 yen; both are 1/8 scale and approximately 15 cm tall, with Yui scheduled to retail in July and Minori in August. Purchasing both enables the use of a special “poyoyon gattai” part for display in optimum symmetrical docking configuration. Apparently limited color versions of both figures are in the works as well. At this point we don’t have sculptor information, but we’ll be on the lookout both for that and preorder announcements that are likely to appear in the coming days. Edit: I forgot to mention that both figures are castoffable, as shown in our original Wonder Festival coverage. Visual evidence reproduced below:

15.600 yen for both?
I’ll pass… Damn! PVC’s price is skyrocketing like nuts
a 1/8 figure with price that high, what I can say is that either one of them or both of them is cast-offable. Just watch their OAV(ecchi), you can read my review and there are some naughty pictures as well at my blog.
Nice, but too expensive . . .
I agree about the price, it’s pretty insane even with the various gimmicks included. 6,800 would’ve been the high end of reasonable, but 7,800…. definitely passing. ;_;

Thanks for reminding me, I forgot to mention the castoff. Post edited for clarification.
Yeah, PVC’s are getting so that they’re not even remotely pleasing anymore – pricewise. There’s even 1/10 scale figures that reach 6,800..crazy! O_o
The prices have made me buy much less lately. There is a limit to “reasonable”.
I agree with you – 7800yen for a 1/8 figure is way past reasonable. Especially when it’s from Toyworks.
Saving up the 15600yen for another Griffon QB figure (hopefully, Tomoe will be sold as a completed figure) 8)
