Japanese model maker Sen-Ti-Nel (株式会社千値練)'s popular alloy action figure series "RIOBOT", following "Steel Roboco", will now release its latest product, "RIOBOT Steel Roboco Anime Ver.", based on the anime "Me & Roboco"! The suggested retail price is 9,900 JPY, and it is scheduled for release in July 2023.
Created by manga artist Shuhei Miyazaki, "Me & Roboco" is hailed as a comedic masterpiece following Gintama! A major highlight of the series is its extensive homages (parodies) to serialized works from "Weekly Shonen Jump". The story is set in the near future where beautiful maid robots "OM (OrderMaid)" are widespread. The protagonist, an elementary school 5th grader named Bondo Taira, eagerly awaits his family finally getting a beautiful maid robot. However, the Roboco (ロボコ) that arrives is a bizarre robot maid with a muscular physique, terrible cooking skills, the ability to shoot beams from her eyes, and a deep love for "Weekly Shonen Jump"... Thus begins the hilarious maid story of an elementary school master!
The "RIOBOT Steel Roboco Anime Ver." stands at a height of 12 cm. Its sculpt differs from the manga version of Roboco, adding the hair sheen unique to the anime and the exaggerated expressions seen in the animation. The figure faithfully recreates Roboco's full and robust physique. In addition to its excellent articulation design, die-cast alloy parts are used for joints such as the knees and shoulders, adding a satisfying weight when handled. Coupled with a rich array of interchangeable hand gestures, you can enjoy hilarious poses, including homages to Shigaraki Tomura's face-covering hand and Gojo Satoru's Domain Expansion!
▼Includes four hilarious face-swapping parts: a smiling face, a startled face, a servile face, and a charging face!
▼Also includes her beloved "Weekly Shonen Jump" manga and propeller parts.
▼Her underwear has also been changed to feature celebratory anime text.
