Product Description
Presented in the Japanese Bishoujo (Pretty Girl) style based upon the illustrations of Shunya Yamashita and sculpted by Koei Matsumoto, the Marvel Bishoujo 1/8 Scale Dark Phoenix Statue is a PVC sculpture measuring approximately 9â? tall. Situated airily atop a base comprised of translucent red-orange flame, the amber-eyed Dark Phoenix is clad in her contour-hugging red costume complete with gold gloves, thigh-high boots, and billowing waist sash. Marking turmoil within the ranks of the X-Men, the Dark Phoenix Saga charted Jean Greyâ?TMs evolution as host to the Phoenix entity and the corruption that ultimately transformed her into the Dark Phoenix. Spawned in part by a series of various schemes and identity-effacing manipulations on the part of the Hellfire Club, the Dark Phoenix turned on the X-Men before she sought out another galaxy entirely and elevated her destructive appetites to nearly godlike proportions. The Dark Phoenix Saga set fixates on the last cataclysmic Moon showdown.

Editorial Reviews
From the Manufacturer
In collaboration with Marvel comics the popular character has been redesigned, or shall we say re-mixed with Japanese Bishoujo taste. A totally different color scheme from original "Phoenix" Trancelucent material is used on various parts of the body and base to capture her essence. The exceptional situation base uses the motif of flame in connection with her imagery. Comes pre-painted standing over 9” tall and in 1/8 scale, which is the golden scale for many Bishoujo figures and packaged in an attractive window box. Illustration created by Shunya Yamashita, know for his unique and beautiful pin up style women designs.
