Goodsmile Mecha Musume Action Figure+Model Kit Hybrid, Act Mode has returned with Mio and this time with extra Dakka! After getting several Melee weapon system pack, The first of the ACT Mode character now gets yet another Long Range weapon configuration and it comes with 2 different flavor! The collectors got the choice to either pick Railgun or Missile Pack as Mio's Long range weapon of choice. Scheduled for October 2024 release, ACT Mode Long range Expansion kit for Mio will be sold for 20000 & 22000 Yen with the missile pack being the slightly more expensive one.
Personally I do feel the Missile variant had better gimmick despite the Railgun is more imposing and cheaper. But for over 20k Yen Mecha Musume Product, the Navy Field Long Range equipment doesn't come with Mio Action Figure herself which can be a dealbreaker for some collector. As much as the cool design for Mecha Musume product, this one won't be competitive enough as you could have got some nice Diecast or Large Mecha for this price tag. Not to mention that the Chinese counterpart would likely release something equivalent for 1/3rd of this product price if given enough time. I am very well aware that Japan economy is not in great shape but China Toy Manufacturer will take advantage for every single opportunity presented by Japan. Personally I think the first version Navy Field Mio is still the best deal overall because it has really good value for 10000 Yen product and as Casual Mecha Musume collector, I don't really need the over the top weapon pack.
