Illustrator lack is actively collaborating with PRISMA WING on a series of 1/7 scale Piapro Characters figures, with pre-orders open for MEIKO and KAITO as of June 2026.
Illustrator lack has been working with Prime 1 Studio's PRISMA WING line on a series of 1/7 scale figures based on original illustrations of Piapro Characters. In May 2026, PRISMA WING opened pre-orders for a MEIKO figure, capturing the character in a relaxed off-stage pose on a neon-lit hexagonal base. The figure was priced at 27,998 yen at Rakuten Books. In June 2026, the line expanded with a KAITO figure, also based on original art by lack, now available for pre-order at Kadostore for 32,890 yen until July 9, 2026, with a scheduled release in August 2027.
Both figures share a hexagonal base design that allows collectors to connect multiple characters from the series. The collaboration between lack and PRISMA WING has produced at least two figures as of June 2026, with no further figures announced. The MEIKO figure's pre-order period and the KAITO figure's pre-order window overlap, suggesting the line is being released in quick succession.
No other projects involving lack are mentioned in the available stories. The artist's work on these figures represents the extent of current coverage.
