With a presence that steals your gaze at first sight, “Shiori,” the seventh release in the KoiKoi series, achieves a level of completion as if she stepped out of the world of “Aotaka Activity Diary” by popular illustrator jonsun. This 1/6 scale figure, standing approximately 27 cm tall, is more than just large. By combining PVC, ABS, and even iron, it realistically expresses not only the appearance but also the tactile feel when held. The slender, toned silhouette captures her cool and composed personality, with a delicate sculpt that also conveys a hint of fragility.

One of the biggest highlights of this figure is the unique “competitive swimsuit maid” costume design. The classical elements of a maid outfit are fused with the sharp lines of a racing swimsuit, creating a striking new genre. From the chest and waistlines to the back cutout, the sculptor CKB’s detailed craftsmanship shines throughout. When combined with the colorist Mitsu’s delicate paintwork, it reproduces the texture of fabric, its luster, and the tautness unique to swimsuits with impressive realism.

The standard face has a calm expression looking slightly to the side, giving off a contemplative and somewhat unapproachable vibe. However, when replaced with the “follow-eye” face part, it changes to a more realistic expression that seems to look directly at you. This part is designed to make the viewer feel a “connection” with the figure, evoking a sense of her truly “being there” rather than being just a display item. She gives a different impression depending on the angle, offering flexible display options—a welcome feature.

The 27 cm size is impactful yet manageable, making it ideal not only for existing collectors but also for those just starting their collection. Its high design quality, material texture, and interactive gaze elevate it beyond the realm of mere character merchandise. If the unique theme of a “competitive swimsuit maid” has piqued your interest, why not take this opportunity to pick it up?
