Strategize on how to order these two Valkyria ladiesThe strategy-RPG genre may sadly not be what it once was, but thankfully there are still a few fantastic titles out there like Valkyria Chronicles keeping things alive with top notch updates for the modern era. Still some of the best games released in recent years with fantastic character design to boot, it's no small wonder they're continuing to get attention in the figure world even now. We brought you a quick preview of these upcoming lovelies from Volks' upcoming event next weekend, but it's always nice to get a closer look as well! Both Edy and Juliana look just great, and the charagumin line is perfect for those of us too afraid to take some paint to an unfinished kit. While I'm a bit sad there's no representation from VC3 (maybe if you'd brought it stateside, Sega), it's undoubtedly nice to see a couple less-represented characters getting some love! You can hit up a proxy service to get your own kit locked in before the event. Edy will run about ¥9,800, while the noticeably bustier Juliana will require just a little more of an investment at ¥10,800. Well worth the cost, if you ask me!
