Updated: Actual product on display at Tokyo Toy Show! A new image has been added to this story!
Bandai Premium has opened a page for the next item in the Super Sentai Artisan collectors’ series: an upgraded Shinken-Oh, the main Mecha of the 33rd Super Sentai Series Samurai Sentai Shinkenger!
No images of the new Shinken-Oh are online yet, but orders will be open from July 1 2015 through September 30 with a release date listed as December 2015! The price is a modest 16200 Yen before shipping and fees.
Apparently this is still happening.
December release, 16200 Yen.

I think I can see unpainted die-cast. The crest, fists, thighs and the emblems on the knees.
The sword also appears fully painted.

That sword is impressive.
They should do an Artisan Senpuujin.
Awesome, now we can form Shinken-oden if we want to leave Takeru behind.
So basically, they're doing the exact same thing BoA did with the Legacy Megazord.
