Bandai Namco is running full-tilt to get some small-sized Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury figures to market. The newest entries in the company’s super-deformed Figuarts Mini line will represent the series in the form of Suletta Mercury and her fiancé, Miorine Rembran. They’re now up for pre-order in Japan [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]
The Suletta Figuarts Mini figure brings a cute, super-deformed rendition of Gundam: The Witch From Mercury‘s protagonist Suletta Mercury to shelves. She appears dressed in her Asticassia School of Technology uniform. The uniform is colored in the distinct black, white, and gold color scheme worn by the “Holder,” the top-ranked mobile suit duelist at the school. The figure stands 90mm tall (about 3.5″ inches). It’s manufactured with what Bandai calls its proprietary “Glittering EYE” method to enhance the coloring and liveliness of the figure’s eyes. It also includes a stand and replacement arms. Buyers can recreate Suletta’s anxiety-ridden posture with a simple swap of the hands.
Meanwhile, the Miorine Figuarts Mini stands at the same height, but bears the confidence only the scion to the Benerit Group, one of the Solar System’s largest corporate behemoths, can muster. Like Suletta’s figure, Miorine’s Mini comes with replacement arms to pose with. It’s also dressed in the standard Asticassia uniform, only wearing the usual sea green, black, and orange scheme.
The Gundam: Witch From Mercury Suletta and Miorine Figuarts Mini figures are available for pre-order in Japan. Each figure costs 2,970 Yen (about $20 USD) and is expected to ship in April 2023. The anime series is ongoing and available to watch on Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Bilibili.
