Bandai Hobby will open up pre-orders for a plastic model of Meowscarada from the Pokemon series. This will come out in February 2025 and will cost 1760 JPY ($12.20).
As of the time of writing, the Bandai Hobby site does not have a link to where you can pre-order it. The Japanese version of AmiAmi has it available for pre-order, but the English version does not. It may stock it a little later on. The Meowscarada plastic model is part of the Pokemon Plamo Collection and is the 56th species in the series. Like other plastic models, it has plenty of joints for a variety of poses. You can also change its mouth and the direction it’s eyes are pointing at. Finally, the details of the leaves underneath Meowscarada’s “cape” are visible in this model.
Meowscarada is the final evolution of Sprigatito, the Grass starter in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. It is a combination Grass/Dark Type and it looks to be a feline phantom thief in terms of its inspiration. Some of the replies and QRTs joke that Bandai Spirits released a bishoujo figure, referencing Meowscarada’s popularity among certain crowds on the Internet. In terms of ball joints, there are some in the neck, shoulders, elbows, thighs, knees, and ankles. This means there’s a fairly limited range of motion, though the number of ball joints is perfect for striking some of its poses from the game.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are readily available on the Nintendo Switch.
