This figure is being sold at Winterfest, a venue where custom figures only are sold. Japan being Japan, "custom figures" has gradually come to mean "models of cute girls".
The artwork on the packaging is, I believe a) a parody of the quintessence of cute girl models at Winterfest, b) an attempt to make the set more appealing to fans of cute girl models, or c) both.

Sorry, Wonderfest, not Winterfest. And it's already finished, unfortunately.

Is this toy manufactured under license by TakaraTomy? Does that mean it is official merchandise?

Agreed. I wonder if CrazyDevy will do THAT as an upgrade kit

Rather a Revoltech or Busou Shinki figure.

It's semi official, while it's not made by Takara it is granted a special licence to be sold with the trademark names and everything.

Figures overall look rather nice, but knowing the bomb it'll inevitably cost, I pass.
