Last year, Tamashii Nations released a die-cast metal and ABS Chōgōkin Hello Kitty toy to celebrate both the mascot and the toy line's 40th anniversary. The adorable bunny mascot, My Melody, asked Tamashii Nations for her own mecha transformation. Tamashii Nations obliged.
Set for release on January 18, the toy has a Space Cruise Mode and Normal Mode. The heart in her ear can be launched like a missile to take out Kuromi or other space invaders.
The toy retails for 5,400 yen (US$44).
