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 Soukai Shoujo Teien Yakushiji Kuon (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. :-)
