The princess of the sun that rules over Equestria and Twilight Sparkle’s mentor, Princess Celestia, is finally joining the BISHOUJO stylized MY LITTLE PONY lineup!
Princess Celestia is the wise and kind ruler of Equestria. With the help of her sister, Princess Luna, she makes sure that the sun and moon rise and set each day in her castle in Canterlot.
Based on the original illustration by Shunya Yamashita, Princess Celestia has been turned into a beautiful BISHOUJO thanks to the skilled hands of Koei Matsumoto, who has sculpted Princess Celestia’s figure, and Takahi, who has sculpted her pony version (the whole figure itself has been produced with the cooperation of Kotobukiya).
The previous BISHOUJO statues of the Mane 6 ponies were designed based on their human appearances in the “My Little Pony: Equestria Girls” series. But Princess Celestia did not appear in their human forms in that series, which means these human forms are entirely original designs made for Kotobukiya!
Princess Celestia’s mystical flowing hair is made of clear plastic filled with glitter and painted a pearl coloring to bring out a soft and gentle texture. The statue captures Princess Celestia’s grace as she calmly watches over the Mane 6 ponies as they learn about the magic of friendship.
Careful attention was given to capture the beautiful details of her elegant silhouette; from her mane to tail, she’s the most voluminous pony statue yet. The package design beautifully contrasts to that of Princess Luna’s and includes a hologram design.
The white shimmering pony version of Princess Celestia is set on a separate base and can be displayed independently. With so much care placed in each detail, this statue makes this a must-have piece for all My Little Pony fans!
Kotobukiya: My Little Pony Princess Celestia Bishoujo Statue is priced at $159.99 and
can be found at the links below. Its release is scheduled for April 2022.
Princess Celestia is a white-winged unicorn with a rainbow-colored nebulous mane and tail and a beauty mark that represents a sun. She wears a gold tiara and necklace, each adorned with an amethyst in its center. Her legs have golden ornaments at their ends.
Princess Celestia is the ruler of Equestria, but she is also the guardian of Twilight Sparkle. She is kind, gentle, and powerful… All the qualities needed to lead and protect the kingdom. She is also the older sister of Princess Luna as well as the magic teacher of Twilight Sparkle.
