Run for your lives everyone! Phat! Company has released a terrifying assortment of cute, little squid girls on the world! Their goal? To take over your wallet and soul with pure adorableness. ...oh the horror! ...er, cuteness!

From Shinryaku! Ika Musume comes a collection of seven super deformed 60mm tall Ika Musume trading figures, all with their own cute expression and action. Just look at that header image. It's impossible to describe how cute these are! Such simplicity to the faces and it makes everyone one of them a want. There's also a secret eighth figure in the set. I'll give you a hint on what it is. It's cute. You're welcome.

A box of nine is retailing for ¥5,400 and will be available in the only month that Japan thinks exists: April. If PVC figures are not your thing but cute trading figures are, then you have nothing to worry about! The ink spitting one is my favorite of the group. Perfect for those spit takes in wacky photos. What about you? Which ones do you like from the set?
