Alphamax's Tamaki is totally on the ball

Even the most oblivious visual novel reader (player?) would be hard-pressed to not know who the always-elegant Tamaki Kousaka is. Hailing from To Heart 2, she isn't even the main character and yet her popularity has skyrocketed to the point of nearly being the series' figurehead. It's no small wonder she already has a Kanu Unchou-like amount of figures to her name, and Alphamax has seen fit to bring us yet another.

Fortunately, this one might be one of the best yet. No, pervs, it's not because her bikini happens to be castoffable. It's also not because she happens to be in a rather...inviting pose, though you're getting warmer. What really has me liking this figure is how natural she's resting in general. It's the little details about a design that really get me, and Alphamax has really done a great job capturing the lay of her arms and finger placement. 

I could wax on about the design for awhile yet, but to keep things short I'll just say if you're as enamored as I am, she'll be available this May for around ¥7200 (approx. $73.00 USD).
