About this figure

This is Yuuki from Sword Art Online, the Midnight Dream version from Banpresto's Espresto Sweet Skin series, tied to the Memory Defrag mobile game. The Absolute Sword is the duelist who beat Kirito fair and square. Here she sits in yellow pajamas with her long purple hair loose, ready for a sleepover instead of a sword fight. The figure released in June 2021. Espresto's Sweet Skin branding marks its focus on soft skin-tone finishing. She is about six inches in the seated pose, PVC and ABS, non-scale. Yuuki figures are rare and beloved in equal measure, given her story arc, and this is one of the few casual takes on her ever made. She brings more warmth to a shelf than figures twice her size.
