figma Kuroko Shirai

Finally, I am able to get my hands on figma Kuroko, the third exclusive release

figma from the anime Toaru Majutsu no Index (A Certain Magical Index). Kuroko

is just a side character in that show but she is one of the main ones in another

anime series called A Certain Scientific Railgun.

figma Kuroko is bundled together with a PSP game for Railgun. Here the box

is shown on the right while the little box for the game disc is at the left. There

is also a small piece of cloth that is beneath the feet of Kuroko that comes with

the box set.

Check out the accessories. We get nearly everything that charaterize Kuroko

in the anime. These include her Judgement armbands, handcuffs, school bag,

metal nails (her weapons) and a total of 3 face expressions.

Kuroko uses metal nails like these as weapons to pin down her oppenents. Of

course she does not kill them as she is a member of the Judgement, which is

a group that maintain peace in the Academy City. The metal nails come as

something like a model kit. You have to take each of them out and insert into

her special hands. I think we get extras because they are so small and thus

easy to be lost.

Kuroko carries those nails with a strap around her thighs as shown in this

picture, which also feature Misaka and her Imouto. Kuroko is a Level 4

ability user. Her unique skill is Teleport.

The handcuffs are fun to have. I can foresee many more use of it in

the future :) Nodoka and Touma made a cameo here.

No girls with guns this time but we have girls with armband haha.

Haruhi and Nodoka (again).

In the anime, Kuroko is always very serious towards her duty as a member of

the Judgment. However there is another side of her character. She is madly

obsess with Misaka, which she call her as "Onee-sama". Scenes of Kuroko

jumping on Misaka appear nearly in every episode of Railgun...

Kuroko is suppose to be 12 years old. Yes you may be surprise! She could

be the most perverted 12 years old. This nature of her makes her the funniest

character in the show and my second favourite in Railgun :)

figma Kuroko is an exclusive and limited release, but I got her in a half price

discount and it is not that bad a price for me. Overall, she is a fine figure and

an important part in my Index/Railgun collection.

Also check out figma Misaka and figma Misaka Imouto.
