Misaka Mikoto swimsuit version by Wave
This Misaka Mikoto figure is from the well known Beach Queens line from manufacurer Wave,her release date was in march 2011.
Misaka is a 1/10 scaled figure with a height of 160 mm, surprisingly her sculptor is Hiroshi (Sakurazensen) who also made the
Saber ~Iron Hammer of the Terrible King Vortigern~ figure, quite the difference XD
She always tries to hide the fact that she likes cute things and that she is more girlish inside than most people assume,
especially from other people she doesn’t know very well. I would say she’s quite the violent tsundere character sometimes.
Misaka Mikoto made her first appearance in the anime Toaru Majutsu no Index, but the origin of Misaka in this outfit is the
spin-off anime To Aru Kagaku no Railgun episode 13. Where the cast of Railgun went to a photostudio to take part in a shooting for a swim suit catalog.
The photostudio is very advanced and can create locations in a very realistic way, like the holodeck from the spaceship Enterprise.



Later that afternoon Misaka sneaked into the photostudio, took the cute bikini she initially wanted to wear,
created a exotic beach location in the studio and let her true self run free, but she didn’t notice a small detail.


A few month ago it would have been unthinkable that I would have bought a figure of Misaka Mikoto
In fact I disliked her in Toaru Majutsu no Index, mainly for her Touma hating personality and her furious rage attacks out of nowhere.
In Toaru Majutsu no Index II I began to really like her, there she appeared a lot more likeable.

As this Misaka figure was announced I wasn’t that impressed by the official pictures of her, “unfortunately”
haha ok not really unfortunately ;p MastraCustom from mfc posted a really nice picture of her so I became
head over heels about Misaka and wanted to get her badly, on the big figure selling sites she was already sold out,
so I’ve bought my Misaka copy on ebay.


The pose of Misaka shows her happy girl side very well, I really like how she lifts her slender arms in such a playful way,
This Misaka figure creates a very joyful atmosphere no matter where she is placed, thanks to the comic look of her origin
this figure has rather big eyes and a big mouth despite her being only an 1/10 scaled figure,
these characteristics are noticeable even from a distance, which leaves a good impression.

Her short hair shows a gradient effect from light too dark brown, the strands are sculpted in a very clean way.
Also the flower clip on her head is a nice and cute detail. At 2 small areas is a slight scratch on the hair.
The hairstyle is limiting the moveability of her head quite a bit, because her shoulders are in the way.


Her face looks just too cute ^-^, either figures with wide open mouth look good or some kind of retarded,
in case of Misaka it’s the definetely on the good side, the upper fron teeth line is a nice detail at her mouth.
Eyes and mouth together create an enchanting and happy face expression.
This standard version I’ve bought comes with two faces, the second face, shows Misaka with a “ewwwww” expression, it is really funny, but the happy face is the best for her. To change the faces you just have to take off the bangs part and pull the face out and exchange it with the other face.

This figure also has a well sculpted body, Misaka is rather tall and not what you would call well endowed, but nevertheless I think she’s a quite a pretty girl

Especially her waisteline and the level of detail at her belly are really nice eyecandy. On my copy there is only one more noticeable flaw, it is a small area on the left side of her waiste which looks quite bumpy. The paintjob of this figure is clean and I like her slightly tanned skincolor a lot.
Even the details at her face like the eyes, the blushmarks and the mouth.






This Misaka is incredible cute, her big eyes together with her playful pose just melt my manly heart.
Misaka is definitely one of the nicer figures from Waves Beach Queens Line, if not one of the best ones.
The sculpting of her body and the bikini looks very good from nearly every angle.
My Misaka figure has a small bumby looking area and another things is that the pegs of her base fit a bit loose into the two holes under her feet.
The positive sides of this figure are on the majority and so Im really happy that I’ve bought her.


So here a few additional outdoor pictures with some water.

At first Misaka enjoys the warm rainshower, but as the rain turned into a rainstorm her mood suddenly changes.
