Plastic model builders would never be without their plastic nippers... in fact, they're so important to the hobby that "they" are now a "she"! Meet Nipako, the personification of GODHAND Co., Ltd.'s Ultimate Nippers. She's so popular that she has her own figma!
Nipako, whose full name is Celine P. Nippern, is a princess from the distant planet Kougu who loves Earth's subculture movement. She comes with a variety of props including an airbrush, craft knife, cutting mat, and (of course) plastic nippers. The backing sheet of the figure can also be folded into two papercraft box props. And, just so you have something to use your own Ultimate Nippers for (because you own a pair, right?) there's a 1/3 scale pre-painted model of them for you to assemble.
Nipako and all her props are available to preorder for 5,820 yen (about $53.36) until May 18. Orders will ship out in November.
