ONE-SHOT BUG KILLER!! INTERCEPTOR DOLL COMBAT-SAN PLASTIC MODEL KIT
The popular Japanese manga series One-Shot Bug Killer!! depicts a world in which insects have become immune to ordinary extermination. In response, two competing companies create tiny bug-killing robots... in the form of cute girls, of course.

The number one competitor to the Hoi Hoi-san model, Combat-san is the number one bug extermination robot developed by the Kinryu pest control company. At 5 2/3 inches tall the robot is in 1:1 scale, so she stands just as tall as the robots in the manga!

Sculpted by Misono Auto, the bug exterminator is comprised of approximately 100 pieces that include replaceable parts to change her eye line. You can paint the plastic model kit in any way you’d like, and she comes with special decals for her eyes, eyebrows, and eyelashes. With 25 points of articulation Combat-san is very poseable, and she comes armed with a stun gun and rapid-fire rifle.

ONE-SHOT BUG KILLER!! INTERCEPTOR DOLL HOIHOI-SAN – HEAVY ARMS - PLASTIC MODEL KIT
While she is the same size, 4 inches tall in 1:1 scale, and wears her traditional cute maid’s outfit (with matching slippers and bunny ears), it’s her armament and disposition that define her. Hoi Hoi-san comes with two different faces – one happy and one angry for furious combat. Her accessories include the massive Hoi Hoi Hammer, heavy machine gun, and exclusive “Bug Killer” bottle. Sculpted by Masatoshi Aoki, Hoi Hoi-san is comprised of approximately 100 pieces, and can be painted in any way you’d like!

ONE-SHOT BUG KILLER!! INTERCEPTOR DOLL COMBAT-SAN TACTICAL SUIT PLASTIC MODEL KIT
Combat-san’s stern face is all business, and she wears a heavy-duty headband with dual antennae. The bug exterminator is comprised of approximately 120 pre-colored pieces that require no glue for easy assembly. 25 points of articulation mean that Combat-San is very poseable, and the included eye, eyebrow, and eyelash decals make her even more customizable. Finally, no interceptor robot would be complete without her arsenal, and so Combat-San comes equipped with a “Grind Frame,” combat knife, “Sundome-Kun”, and magazine pouch!
