MIKI MAKIMURA



The Dynamic Action Figures toyline from Marmit not only was the only toy line aside of Fewture to release many different character from Devilman, but it was the more faithfull to the character and match the style and time of Go Naga´s original work. And thanks to theyr release window (80s-90s??) they are extremelly difficult to find. And to my surprise, i was able to get this one a couple of months ago!!

Miki Makimura, one of the most important Go Nagai heroins and one of the 3 human characters Marmit release (Miki, Akira and Ryo....that sadly, i dont have) is actually not one of my favorite characters tough i wasnt able to net get her.


She is even smaller than Akira wich means Marmit is really good at scale (something modern companys should learn) and just like Akira, she have a very light weigth and can stand on her own despite her small feet. Again, she seem made by a very vynilish plastic.

Her sculpt is very clean and basic, her tiny mouth and big eyes are nicelly sculpted but the most detailed sculpt is on her boobs, its amazing how realistic looks the dress and how compress her huge boobs (i am glad they dont mess with her balance) and the paint is also pretty simple and clean: shoes, red dress, eyes and brown hair. There is missing some brown in the inside part of the hair but this is the only  issue i can find.


Just like toys from the 90s, she is only articulated on her neck, shoulders and legs, gladlly her arms and body language is sculpted to make him looks femenine (and Akira looks masculine) soo while she cant achive a lot of poses, her default pose have a cute personality.

Her only accesory is her little brother, Tare-chan. Yes, an extra figure, a pretty small and almost unimportant character that actually was the comic reliefe of the original manga, he is almost as iconic as his sister and is pretty nice from Marmit to add him since i think this is the only figure of this character.


Just like Miki, he is articulated only on the neck, shoulders and legs and his vibrant coloring clothes and anime face design scream 70s.

As much as i dont care about Miki, i am really glad i was able to get her specially 30 years after her release. Now i only wish i could get Ryo Asuka...
