Strangekiss now is now taking preorders on their exclusive I.W.G. Hinenuitepo figure designed by Patrick Ma which will be released on Valentine’s day (2.14.07). Hienuitepo and her sister Makutu are part of the new IWG Series 4 from Rocket World. The pair are yellow eyed penguins, the rarest species of penguins in existence today. Hinenuitepo (the Maori goddess of death and greaty lady of the night) uses her removable torpedo (w/belt accessory) to exact nature’s revenge on unspecting vessels crossing the sea under cover of darkness. Unlike her sister, she bears tattoos — Maori tribal (face) and Skull (chest) — indicative of her fierce nature.
Hinenuitepo stands 5" tall, is limited to just 100 pieces, has 5 points of articulation (head, flippers, legs) will come with a special patch and is available for preorder from Strangekiss for $40. Preorder her now or try your luck… Thanks to Strangekiss we are giving away one IWG Hinenuitepo figure to a lucky reader.
