For every Ying, there's a Yang and so for KOS-MOS, there is T-ELOS! We got a pretty good view of her back at the NicoNico Super Kaigi but we get a few more action shots of her from the Figma blog just before she goes up for pre-order!

I'm still not sold on the hip design yet but Max Factory has definitely levelled up in the details department! It almost makes you want them to go back and do a second version of KOS-MOS! Sadly, that extra details comes at a cost... Literally(!) as her price is expected to be around ¥4,000, which puts her on the very high end of the figma price scale. Only a few others like Drossel and KOS-MOS were more expensive at ¥4,800 but they had lots of accessories to go with the figures! Granted, these aren't AlMecha prices but I can't help but wonder why she commands the higher price point at this time... (while I'm also secretly hoping for an AlMecha T-ELOS too! Their KOS-MOS was just way too good, aside from the hair!)

In any case, pre-orders are expected to open tomorrow and you can bet that I'll be hovering over the button waiting to put her on my pre-order pile. What about you readers? How many will be putting in a pre-order for the other half of the Xenosaga pair?
