I've been watching since the first release, and it's really interesting to feel the history when looking at it from the beginning! Today we are going to check out the second release of the MEGAMI DEVICE series!

【MEGAMI DEVICE】The second release of the MEGAMI DEVICE series features a more stylish set of two: WISM SOLDIER SNIPE/GRAPPLE!

What is WISM SOLDIER SNIPE/GRAPPLE?

WISM SOLDIER SNIPE/GRAPPLE is a duo released as part of the second series of the MEGAMI DEVICE series, which has the theme of 'beautiful girls x mechanics'.
The second series of MEGAMI DEVICE, WISM SOLDIER SNIPE/GRAPPLE, was released in January 2017. The first series, Assault/Scout, was released in December 2016, so they became available for purchase almost simultaneously.
Like the first series, the second also comes in a package with two types of face parts and body parts. This means if you want to build both characters at the same time, you'll need to prepare an additional set of body parts.
(By the way, starting with the third series, which will be released later, the specification will change to include only one set of face and body parts in a single package.)
By the way, the acronym 'WISM' in the series name stands for 'woman’s imperial space marines'.
The name has been set by Shimada Fumikane-Sensei, who is responsible for character design, as a mixed-media content title for a 2046 SF movie, anime, and comic set in space.

There's only a one-month gap between the first and second releases, so they might have been created almost simultaneously.

Yes, it seems like the design will change from the third installment, so the unique feature of sharing one body part between two models is a privilege limited to the first and second releases!

Indeed. It looks like special versions with different color variations have also been released for this one, just like the first. This time, the base color has shifted from white to black, emphasizing its villainous appearance! (Though there is no evil setting!)
