Frieren ~in Mimic~ Luminasta

Sega has announced that it will be re-releasing a popular prize figure based on the hit anime series Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End.

The “Frieren ~in Mimic~ Luminasta” is a recreation of one of the most famous and beloved running gags from the series.

In the series, despite being an immensely powerful and ancient elven mage, the protagonist Frieren has a critical weakness for treasure chests, which often turn out to be dangerous monsters known as mimics.

The recurring scene of her getting caught with her head and upper body stuck inside a chomping mimic has become an iconic and humorous part of the franchise.

The figure is part of the “Luminasta” line, a popular brand of high-quality prize figures from Sega.

The product is a set that includes a figure of Frieren and a separate, openable mimic figure.
