“This is not just a figure.” That is the first impression you get from this 1/7 scale completed figure of the popular character Kashino from Azur Lane. The theme this time is “Fresh & Sweet!”—and true to its name, it's a masterpiece filled with a refreshing and sweet atmosphere, as if she just arrived from a farm. The cow-print costume highlights her cuteness, and the soft skin tone and exquisite shading recreate a realistic texture rarely seen in figures.

What makes this figure special is not only the overall balance and posing but also the meticulous crafting of the small accents. The cowbell around her neck, in particular, emits a metallic shine, serving as an exquisite accent that draws the eye. Her somewhat shy expression splendidly conveys Kashino's inner loveliness, resulting in a finish that makes your heart flutter every time you look. Her charming features like her ears and horns are also delicately reproduced in 3D, packed with her “otherworldly cuteness”.

Looking down at her feet, various props that hint at a story are placed there. The milky-white “richness” that seems about to overflow from the milk can, and the playful touch created by the small manju (steamed buns) placed beside her. Their combination creates a scene like a single painting, going beyond mere character reproduction. The charm of this figure is that it not only possesses individual beauty but also stimulates your imagination about its background.

A feature we must pay attention to is the presence of an interchangeable “flustered face” part. This is also very cute. The drastically changed impression compared to her normal, modest, and shy face undoubtedly increases the fun of expressing your “nurturing love” as a commander. By changing her expression to suit your mood or scene, this figure becomes one you want to keep cherishing in your daily life, rather than just displaying and being done with it.

We must not forget the shikishi (art board) included as a bonus. Receiving an original illustration of Kashino, who boasts popularity that rivals a main character, is the greatest possible joy for a fan. Of course, the completion of the figure itself is also stunning, with a presence of approximately 29cm in height and a smooth texture utilizing PVC & ABS material, making it a piece that can certainly take center stage in any collection case.
