Maomao Street Walk Figure – Banpresto, The Apothecary Diaries

Maomao away from the rear palace for once, caught mid-step and glancing back over her shoulder as if she has just spotted a herb seller. This Maomao Street Walk figure is the Banpresto prize figure of her town outfit, all flowing pink and coral instead of servant's green.

Maomao Street Walk ver. by Banpresto

She turns over her left shoulder with an open smile, long dark green hair loose and lifting in the wind, a cluster of red beads and a pink pin tucked into the braid at the side. A white robe fades into pink towards a full, rippling hem, a coral shawl streams out on both sides, and one dark shoe kicks up behind her. No painted-on freckles here: this is the girl who grew up in the pleasure district and knows every back street of the capital, dressed up for once.

What you get

• 1 Maomao figure, Street Walk ver. (walking pose, looking back)
• Banpresto prize figure from Bandai Spirits, as printed on the box
• Material: PVC
• Comes in its printed box with the street scene on the front
• Height is not stated by the supplier; the street backdrop of the box art is not part of the figure

Where she walks next

The swirl of the skirt reads best from a front three-quarter angle, so give her a shelf at eye level with a little room on both sides for the shawl. She pairs naturally with a Jinshi figure, who would certainly insist on coming along. A good present for anyone who likes Maomao best off duty and out of uniform.
