Figures of the character do very well, especially those that show her in her villainous gear. Three of these figures have been showcased below. These are the “My Hero Academia Banpresto Figure Colosseum Vol. 5: Himiko Toga”, “My Hero Academia Himiko Toga ⅛ scale Figure”, and “Color-Colle My Hero Academia Vol. 2 Box Set” figures.

Himiko Toga is portrayed mid-run in this figure. She is propped up by the stand, which comes with a dusty running effect and a cute pink and yellow “SHUK!” sound effect. Red transparent blood splashes on the ground around her. As Toga’s quirk functions from the ingestion of other people’s blood, this addition fits the design of the figure perfectly. She is fully geared up, holding one blade in a fist to her cheek lovingly. Her expression is happy and blushing while a wide smile shows off her fangs. Her villain gear can also be removed to give this figure a completely different feel.

About the Himiko Toga
Himiko Toga is one of the villains in the League of Villains. The group is led by Tomura Shigaraki, who is the apprentice of All Might’s worst enemy. Her quirk, Transform, allows her to take on the exact form of anyone whose blood she ingests. At least a few drops are needed to make a full transformation. The more blood she has, the longer she is able to stay in that form. Her fighting abilities are also spectacular, as she is incredibly swift and flexible. She is quite crazed at times and gets obsessed with people to the point of wanting to become them. Luckily for her, she can literally do this. She is not very serious, fighting more for her own interests than anyone else’s regime.
