The brand new everyday-life bishojo plastic model kit series 'Sousai Shojo Teien,' a collaboration between Japanese toy company Kotobukiya and illustrator Morikura En, recently announced the latest product, "Ritsuka Saeki [St. Iris Girls' Academy High School - Winter Uniform]," scheduled for release in April 2023.
Ritsuka Saeki is an ojou-sama who has been doted on by her parents and older brother since childhood, possessing an extremely positive personality and unafraid of any challenge. She quickly grasps things and is very dexterous. Influenced by her older brother, she is quite knowledgeable about subcultures, but her current interests seem to have shifted to singing and dancing. Although she has been confessed to by many boys from other schools, she currently has no interest in romance and finds it more enjoyable to spend time with her female friends.
"Sousai Shojo Teien Ritsuka Saeki [St. Iris Girls' Academy High School - Winter Uniform]" is based on the previously released summer uniform version's body, and utilizes new parts to recreate the winter uniform style, exuding an elegant ojou-sama aura. The golden buttons on the waist and the white lines on the skirt hem are pre-painted. For the legs, there are two interchangeable styles: "tights" and "over-the-knee socks." It also includes dedicated thigh parts for sitting poses, skirt parts for sitting poses, bare feet (after removing shoes), a mobile phone, a backpack, and other parts, allowing for a wider variety of poses and scenes.
Furthermore, the accessories include a large number of interchangeable parts, allowing for even more versatile styling of Ritsuka Saeki. Hair parts include classic long hair, long ponytail, twin braids, and a completely new bun hairstyle. The bangs part can be replaced with bangs for glasses, to be used with the separately sold "AFTER SCHOOL Glasses Set." Expression parts include pre-painted and unpainted versions of "Smiling Face," "Staring Face," "Blushing Face," and "Crying Face," totaling 8 types. The included water decals can be used to apply expressions to the unpainted faces. Additionally, there are a total of 13 interchangeable hand parts, with 6 completely new designs added in addition to the 7 from the summer uniform version!
