About this figure

This is Madoka Higuchi from The Idolmaster Shiny Colors, in Banpresto's Espresto figure line from its Highly series. Espresto is Banpresto's finish-focused premium prize brand, and Madoka kneels in a deep blue-purple dress with the careful paintwork the line is named for. The cool elegance is the character: L'Antica's composed strategist, styled to match. The figure released in December 2024. She is about six inches in the kneeling pose, PVC and ABS, non-scale. Espresto idols sit a clear step above the pajama line in formality, the stage version rather than the sleepover one. Madoka's entry is among the more refined Shiny Colors prizes to date.
