To be honest, there isn’t much to show off for its packaging. To give you an idea though, it’s a cube plastic packaging where you the see the figure through it. It’s a package type of box that capitalizes on the figure’s appearance itself — so let’s see the figure already!

The Pop Up Parade Ochaco Uraraka takes appearance seriously. Just look at the facial features of Ochaco. It’s definitely her in an affordable scale figure.

The character could’ve hopped in the scene. Other than that, there isn’t any further dispute — it’s a satisfying figure!
