Revolutionary Beauty with a Touch of Elegance
Koala makes her debut in the Portrait of Pirates Sailing Again line, joining her fellow Revolutionary Army member Sabo in a figure that turns heads with its vivid color palette and undeniably bold aesthetics. This figure captures Koala's post-timeskip look with a generous dose of flair—maybe even a little too generous depending on who you ask!
The Outfit: Frills, Goggles, and Thigh-High Style
Koala's outfit is directly lifted from her anime appearance: a pink blouse with frilly collar and cuffs, a short maroon skirt, and those iconic thigh-high black stockings tucked into brown boots. Her crimson newsboy cap with gold goggles adds personality and a splash of contrast that makes the whole figure pop. The sculpted folds and paint gradients are subtle but noticeable, giving her clothes a textured, animated feel.
Face & Accessories: Cute, Calm, and Confident
The facial sculpt is accurate and charming—Koala’s sweet expression and large eyes are full of life, and there’s an underlying calm confidence that really suits her Revolutionary role. She comes with a few welcome accessories too: a Den Den Mushi in one hand, the option to hold Sabo’s hat in the other, or a more relaxed hand-on-hip pose for a chill vibe. Fun fact—there’s even a mini Sabo hat included, so you don’t need to own his figure to recreate their Revolutionary duo moment!
The Sculpt: Hourglass Turned Up to Eleven
Let’s talk proportions—Koala is slim, curvy, and, frankly, extremely busty. It’s a bit over-the-top considering her manga/anime counterpart, but this is Megahouse’s P.O.P line, and we've seen this aesthetic direction before. The chest size is exaggerated, but the sculpt work remains clean and appealing. There’s flow in the pose and even if the fan-servicey elements are high, it doesn’t take away from the figure’s charm or quality.
Final Thoughts: Add Her to the Revolution!
While not without its quirks, Koala’s first P.O.P figure is colorful, well-crafted, and full of attitude. Whether you’re collecting Revolutionaries (LOL), female characters, or just after a striking piece for your shelf, this one earns its spot—just maybe don’t expect perfect character accuracy in the anatomy department. Still, as a dynamic and eye-catching release, Koala Sailing Again is absolutely worth having next to Sabo and the rest of your crew.
