Together with the Megalomaria Principal.

This kit is the Emulator, released as part of Kotobukiya's Megalomaria series. It's a variation based on the existing Megalomaria Principal, but this time it's been released as a human-type character rather than a mechanical one.

First off, various parts of the body have been reshaped into human skin form, with a number of newly sculpted parts added. The articulated skeleton itself is identical to the Principal, so it still delivers excellent articulation and solid joint strength — making it an A-class action figure model kit. As for the long hair, the hair parts from Sousaishojoteien Kuon Yakushiji [Maria Kagaribi Costume]have been reused. For weapons, the separately sold Weapon Unit 06 Samurai Master Swordhas been added.

So this is a kit that convincingly converts the mechanical Principal into a human-type form. The biggest difference from other girlplas is that only one face is included, so swapping it out isn't possible. Instead, the unique split-pupil system is used, letting you adjust the direction of the eyes. The individual parts from the original Principal are also included as-is, so you can mix and match to your liking.

This is a girlpla that should appeal to those who were interested in the Megalomaria series but weren't into the mechanical look. It's not exactly a moe-style face, but if the aesthetic suits your taste, this is a highly recommended girlpla with top-tier articulation. :-)
