| Page_1 by Gary Menten, on Flickr And for those of you who missed here, here is the NEW and improved Miyori, or Miyori Mk.2. She is now taller than before, her S24A body having been commandeered to serve as Michiko, for which it was a better match in size an skin tone to the head sculpt. Her new body, is the tall and slender S33B body which suits the head sculpt well. I tried to be as true to the original as possible, dressing her in the same top as before, a pair of green shorts, and tall boots which are increasingly hard to find. Her Sterling SMG however has been taken over by Michiko as it is one of the few weapons that suits the smaller S24 body and so Michiko is now carrying Kamiko's old Howa Type 89 rifle. This could change. I still have a few small details to add here and there, but overall, I'm pleased with how she turned out.

| I, too, am pleased by how Miyori 2.0 turned out, as I find her to be one of your most attractive figures.
I am displeased at myself for somehow overlooking this topic! I'm not sure how I missed it. I'm happy to be seeing it now.
Interesting that this head sculpt works well on both the smaller S24 body and the taller S33.
In these pics, Miyori appears to be taller than Laura, but that could be an effect of their poses. _________________ ... DAVE

I thought I had, too. It must have been on Flickr or one of the other sites.  Miyori would look sharp perched atop a tank. Just sayin'. It's probably the goggles. (I found a nifty pic yesterday of a StuG with several 1/6 figures aboard. It looked really good! To the point where I would equally consider a StuG or a PzKpfw IV.) _________________ ... DAVE

The Stug III in Girls und Panzer is one of the two most important Oorai tanks; the other being the Mk iV. Also, Erwin is the best tertiary character in the series. https://gup.fandom.com/wiki/Erwin | |

| I'm sure it would come as no surprise that Erwin came quickly to mind in response to your hypothetical query the other day. _________________ ... DAVE

| I've never thought of Erwin that way. The history club, like the automotive club are too much a bunch of tomboys, for my tastes.
