#577 Akitsushima
This adorable figurine is a Nendoroid-scale depiction of Akitsushima, the seaplane carrier fleet girl.
The Akitsushima is a seaplane tender (which means a maritime support class vessel) that takes her namesake from an ancient name for Honshū, Japan. Built in 1942 in Kobe, she was painted in naval camouflage.
Akitsushima is a fervent tender of her Type 2 Taitei-chan and acts more like a loving babysitter than anything else. She is a bit conscious of her heavy makeup and likes adding excessive "maybe" to her lines which sounds like "camo" in Japanese and could be a conscious pun. Akitsushima does not have much trust in herself and often talks about fighting without enthusiasm. Although she prides herself in cooking delicious curry.

The Akitsushima Nendoroid comes with three different face plates for different situations.

#585 Fubuki: Animation Ver.
This Nendoroid is the destroyer fleet girl Fubuki, who is also the anime protagonist. Correspondingly, she has been tuned to look closer to her anime version for this figure. She wears a sailor uniform consisting of a white and blue top with a blue ribbon around her collar. Her skirt is short and pleated with a matching blue color.
The Fubuki was the first Special Type destroyer in its class, a game changer in maritime warfare. When it was introduced it was one of the most powerful destroyers in the world.
Fubuki is a hopeful newcomer, dedicated to becoming a powerful protector of the people, perceptive, and considerate. She is a very earnest character who works hard and diligently to become stronger and protect her friends and the people around her. Fubuki's manner of speaking is a common situational Japanese, though she may sound somewhat childish. Likes affordable Japanese and western food, and is a beginner-level cook. She also admires Akagi. Speaks a decent amount of Russian.

The special effects, common for Kantai Collection Nendoroid series, were adjusted to faithfully represent the anime visuals. Fubuki's anime-only parts are all included to reproduce that unforgettable first raid and more. The Nendoroid also comes with various alternate hand parts to allow her to hold her various weapons, hold her face in her palms, and many more.

#603 Akashi Kai
This figurine presents the confident repair ship Akashi Kai in the Nendoroid form factor.
The first-in-class repair ship, Akashi served for emergency battleship maintenance at bases in the Truk and Palau atolls. Her remade ("Kai") version has an additional anti-air 12.7cm twin turret.
Akashi is so devoted to her job that she talks about many different things (even her lewd jokes) in repair terms. As she is a repair ship, she is often nervous when she is sortied as she doesn’t have any firepower so she can’t protect herself if she is being attacked. She is proactive, positive, and upbeat, but never expects to be the center of attention. Her banters with Oyodo are a proper show. A good cook. Likes Mamiya Monaka sweets.

#622 Zuikaku
This Nendoroid is Shokaku's sister ship, the second Shokaku-class carrier fleet girl, Zuikaku.
Zuikaku's personality is strict but not exactly composed or considerate, and her speech patterns quickly become informal; she even goes tsundere in some of her conversations. Zuikaku is just as professional as her older sister where it matters, however. Admires "Shokaku-nee", even if it does not often show.
