Newest Tamashii Reveals from Figure-Oh
The latest issue of Figure-Oh Magazine has released! With it, a slew of new S.H.Figuarts and other Tamashii Nation toy lines spanning the vast world of Tokusatsu have been revealed.
December’s retail releases make their first appearance in Figure-Oh. Among the already revealed Luigi and Super Mario Playset C, we can now add Kamen Rider ZO to the list. ZO was the titular Rider from Toei’s 1993 film, and one of the last “Showa Era” Riders to need a release. As stated, his figure will be release in September for ¥4,536.
Joining him is a treat for Super Sentai fans in the form of Vul Eagle, the Red Ranger from Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan! While one release isn’t much, it’s great to see the Sentai line still chugging along. He will also be released in December for ¥4,860.
Jumping over to the land of Tamashii Web Shop, we finally have confirmation of the long teased Android 16 release in the S.H.Figuarts line. Android 16 rounds out the trio of Androids from Dragon Ball Z, partnering up with the previous releases of Android 17 and Android 18. Android 16 will release in February 2015 for ¥5,940.
Also, for you Sailor Moon fans in the house, Tamashii is continuing their line of Figuarts ZERO Sailor Scouts with a beautiful statue of Rei, Sailor Mars! Matching perfectly with the previous three releases, Sailor Mars will release in February 2015 for ¥9,504.
If Kikaider can get his bike, Hakaider wants in on the action too. Hakaider’s bike is known as the White Crow. It features a pretty sleek design that can catch the eyes of fans and non-fans alike. The White Crow will release in February 2015 for ¥5,940.
While no method of release, price, or even release date was shown, the magazine has a nice spread featuring gray-scale prototypes and information regarding the future release of the first in a line of S.H.Figuarts Kinnikuman releases! Western fans may better know the franchise as Ultimate Muscle. The line is set to begin with releases of Kinnikuman himself, along with Warsman. As stated, no other major information is available at this time.
Tamashii Nations 2014 is set to open its doors at the end of October. Fans of Tamashii Nations and their shows know that no show is complete without proper convention exclusives! Figure-Oh has revealed four of these releases.
• Tamashii EFFECT IMPACT Magma Ver. – ¥2,000
