Not sure if there are new GITS series lurking around but Goodsmile got a pleasant surprise for the fans as the best version of Major Motoko Kusanagi made her appearance in Nendoroid form. While there have been plenty of Nendoroid and Figma released for Major Motoko before, her Jacket+Leotard+Stocking getup combo is the best definitive version of her as it display the perfect balance of Strength and Beauty of Major Motoko. Nendoroid Motoko SAC version will be scheduled for September release with 6900 Yen Price Tag.
To be honest just like many Nendoroid made by GSC before, this version of Nendoroid Major Motoko is rather overpriced when it comes to the amounts of accessories as she only come with her Gun and Visor. For the price point, GSC could have considered made the jacket part removable but the weakening Yen in the global currency market is one of the main reason for this to happen. Regardless I will be still willing to wait for Figma rendition of this version of Major Motoko and might even be willing to get a suitable Tachikoma to complement hair. I am quite sure with several versions of Major Motoko got released, Major's second in command Batou would likely follow up in near future. Speaking of Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex, I got to rewatch the series again last year and while I find 2nd Gig rather weak, SAC 1st season still hold very well until this day.
