Relentless Touhou figures are overwhelming

Touhou fans know how intimidating and stressful the series is. Gorgeous but deadly, it's easy to be surrounded and swarmed before you even realize what hits you. It's fitting, then, that on top of the earlier announced Touhou figures, Griffon is also releasing this version of Reimu matching the color palette of her second player design.

While this style might not be as recognizable as Reimu's red robes (I had no idea this one even existed), I have to say as a fan of all things gothic I prefer this alternate much, much more. Combining her miko-like garment with ever-alluring gothic lolita style, I almost wish this were her proper coloring.

Unfortunately if you want her now, you'll have to book a trip to Japan by the end of the month. She'll have a special price of only 6000 yen at Griffon's Wonder Festival booth, so hopefully a few lucky collectors will be able to get their hands on this lovely in just a short time.
