Can't Get Enough Of Nami? Here's Another One

If you were following my Facebook page you probably have a good amount of info about this release. But for those who haven't seen this before, yes, we are going to get another limited edition Nami. I'm actually liking this figure, but c'mon MegaHouse, isn't it time for Robin fans to get their fix?

Well, let's just assume that company has proven that Nami is indeed bankable that they kept releasing Nami POPs. But an equally sexy Nico Robin has to get some love also and not just some limited edition repaints. I'm not complaining about this Nami figure though. Nami look gorgeous here. She is actually wearing Luffy styled sexy outfit complete with a straw hat which is why it is entitled POP LIMITED - Nami (Mugiwara Ver.). It was unveiled at the recently held Chara Hobby 2013 (C3xHobby 2013)

Judging from her hairstyle, Nami is in her pre-timeskip appearance. We haven't seen any reference drawing or sketch of this but it is actually close to Oda's sketch below.

Mugiwara Pirates Gender Swapped

As you can see, it is a funny sketch of the Mugiwaras with their gender swapped. So in this case, that isn't Nami but Luffy as a girl. As I have mentioned, this isn't the exact reference for this figure but it's the closest that I have found. They probably just got the idea from this and use it actually for Nami.

For me this is one of the best looking pre-timeskip Nami. I love the curves of the figure, kinda reminds me of the POP Sailing Again - Nami which is my favorite. I'm not sure about the legs though, as the thigh seems a little weird. But not really bad in general. A lot better that POP LIMITED - Nami Sailing Again (Crimin ver) in my opinion.

What I don't like about this figure is the fact that this is another friggin' Limited Edition. It's really annoying fact that there is something called "Limited Edition" and "Store Exclusives" POPs, but we can't do anything about it can we? We'll just have to fall into their trap as an avid fan and collector.

Below are the details of this release:

POP LIMITED - Nami (Mugiwara Ver.)

• Premium Bandai, MegaTreashop and Mekke Shueisha shop exclusive
• Release Date: February 2014
• Price: 7,350 yen
• Preorder Schedule: 27th of September 2013 - 5th of November 2013

She's not that expensive as you can see, but being a Japan shop exclusive, she is gonna be pricey outside Japan. That's the gist of being limited edition. Still got to get this lady in red, though sometime later, we'll be having another Nami in red in the form of Edition-Z. We still don't know if that is going to be an 8-year old or an adult Nami so I really just have to take this one and regard it as a post valentine gift to myself.
