Max Factory's figma number 263 features Iona from Gekijouban Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova DC, the theatrical sequel to the Arpeggio of Blue Steel anime. Standing approximately 130mm tall, this articulated figure is made from ABS and PVC and was sculpted by Katagiri Youhei, Kuroda Masanori, and Asai (APSY) Masaki. Arpeggio of Blue Steel is set in a near-future where a mysterious fleet of sentient warships known as the Fleet of Fog has blockaded the world's oceans, cutting off global trade and communication. Iona is the mental model of the Fog submarine I-401, one of the few Fog vessels to side with humanity. She develops a unique bond with her human captain, Gunzou Chihaya, as they undertake missions to break the blockade. The DC film continues the story beyond the television series, expanding on the conflict between the Fog and the human forces. The figure was released on November 25, 2015, retailing at 6,000 JPY. The figma line's articulation allows collectors to pose Iona in various stances reflecting her character's calm and composed demeanor.
