2PetalRose's Female Samurai "Maiko" Returns… as the "Midnight Assassin!"

The "Maiko" figure from 2PetalRose will be returning soon in the pictured "Midnight Assassin" colorway. Named after the Japanese term for an apprentice geisha in western Japan, especially Kyoto, the 13½-inch tall "Maiko" (舞妓) is garbed in a traditional samurai helmet with banner waving behind her… giving this figure is almost feminist in appeal, showing a very traditional looking woman taking up a non-traditional & even gender breaking attire. With each piece completely hand-crafted, this version will be limited to an edition of 10 models, packaged with a matching print. Available for pre-order on Friday, January 2nd, 2015 in 2PetalRose's online shop, these will be £175 (approx. $275) apiece with an addition 20 prints available individually for £25 (approx. $40) apiece.
