There's going to be an officially-licensed Charlotte Yeager M1911A1 and an officially licensed Francesca Lucchini Baretta. Airsoft guns.

The Yeager weapon comes with a "Glamorous Shirley" shoulder patch. (The Baretta comes with a Lucchini patch, but it isn't as cool.)

But there's something wrong with the publicity pictures of each girl with her respective weapon. The shirts are too long. You can't see their panties.

UPDATE: I really meant that, by the way. Here's how they look on the show:

1 Coincidently, Japanese blogs are reporting that the home release of the Strike Witches movie is due out on the 26th of October over there.

2 I was just thinking about that yesterday, wondering if there had been any announcements or rumors.

3 It's up on Amazon.jp now, and I gather the official blog though it's not loading at the moment (I presume it's getting hammered), so it looks like that date is correct.

4 That's why we need 3d monitors, with 3-axis rotational controls.  Then the shirt length doesn't matter.

6 I was just doing my Comic order and noticed two Strike Witches figures for ~$50 each.  I'm not sure if they are the same ones you mentioned earlier.

7 I'm impressed at least, the Charlotte looks nice and you're right, that is a great patch.  It's certainly not a replica I would take to an airsoft competition though.
