Ghost in the Shell (攻殻機動隊 Kōkaku Kidōtai, literally "Mobile Armored Riot Police") is a Japanese media franchise originally published as a seinen manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Masamune Shirow. The manga, first serialized in 1989 under the subtitle of The Ghost in the Shell, and later published as its own tankōbon volumes by Kodansha, told the story of the fictional counter-cyberterrorist organization Public Security Section 9, led by protagonist Major Motoko Kusanagi, in the mid 21st century of Japan.

Major Motoko Kusanagi (草薙 素子 Kusanagi Motoko) is an augmented-cybernetic human employed as the squad leader of Public Security Section 9, a fictional law-enforcement division of the real Japanese National Public Safety Commission. Being strong-willed, physically powerful, and highly intellectual, she is well known for her skills in deduction and hacking.

it's pleather from Sideshow so i'm skeptical. maybe can kitbash into sneaking suit ver.
 
I guess Sideshow is importing it into US (from Japan), but I don't know why they mentioned 'Star Ace' in the title.
This figure is made by 'WAVE' which is Japanese toy company known for their resin model kits and small- medium size PVC girl figures.
This is their first attempt on large scale action figure. Probably that's why the figure has weird stick body and bland face sculpt...
