S.H. Figuarts Kikaider 01 In Hand Images, Gil Hakaider Revealed!

under General Tokusatsu News

Well ahead of it’s April release via the Tamashii Web Shop we’ve gotten an early in hand look at S.H. Figuarts Kikaider 01! As usual this type of early look is courtesy of Tamashii Nations themselves and it gives us a glimpse at what the finalized figure will look like, and the accessories it will have.

However, these images also drop a huge bomb. The reveal of S.H. Figuarts Gil Hakaider! Fans of the Kikaider franchise will undoubtedly recognize the emperor of the DARK & SHADOW terrorist organizations as he appeared in Kikaider 01. Gil comes with what every evil emperor needs, a flowing cape and his trademark staff! No release details are known for Gil Hakaider yet but stay tuned as we find out more about this surprise reveal!

    Bandai once again making it hard to maintain a budget for Figuarts.

    This line is definitely improving as it goes forward. A very welcome and surprising reveal. Perhaps we will see a lot more than we initially expected.

    So Gil Hakaider is Hakaider with a cape.

    ...

    Why not? I missed out on the past Hakaider release so getting this doesn’t seem like a bad idea to me.

    Depends. The suit changes material between scenes.

    LOVE Gill Hakaider, although I'm both surprised and impressed Bandai gave him a cape since he didn't have that in the show (haven't watched/read the 01 anime/manga yet so if its in there ahh). Nicely differentiates the two a bit more, though the flute was more than enough to confirm I'd be buying this.

    Waruder and Bijinder next please Bandai!

    Oh god yes. At this point I think they're going to be milking the Hakaider Squad out of this mold before they do anything else though.

    Who needs food or clothes? Just give me more SHF goodness, Bandai.
