The annual Tamashii Nations event is under way and as ever, there are a plethora of new items on display. Just as with every Tamashii event, an item being displayed does not necessarily indicate that it will be released however. A number of new items are currently listed as “Display Only” as well.

That being said, this year’s event has certainly provided a number of figures of interest:

– Den-O Sword Form

– OOO TaJaDor, SaGoZho, LaToraTah & ShaUTa Combos

That is a hefty grouping of new reveala. Once again, we know that not everything here will make it to production for some time, if at all. But it’s always pleasing to see just how much Tamashii pumps out for these events. As more new reveals, images, and information from the event surface we will update this story and the related thread.

Hot on the heels of Garo, Zero, and this month’s release of Taiga, yet another Knight from the Garo franchise joins the Shinkocchou Seihou line! And it’s finally a villain!

Kiba The Dark Knight, once known as the Makai Knight named Barago, was an early villain for the Garo franchise but easily one of the most memorable. The first evil/fallen Makai Knight, Kiba’s dark and dingy armor reflects the loss of his golden status after siding with the Horrors. This S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou also release represents the character’s very first appearance in the S.H. Figuarts line, having previously only been available in the larger and S.I.C. inspired Makai Kado line.

Scheduled to ship in April 2020, retailing for 9990 yen, Kiba will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive.

A new trailer and cinematic poster for the forthcoming Garo: Moonbow Traveler film has been released and it looks to be the family reunion fans of the Golden Knight have been waiting for! The latest chapter in the saga of Raiga Saejima won’t just see Ryosei Konishi reprise his role as Raiga’s father (and original series Garo) Kouga Saejima, but Hiroyuki Watanabe will also be returning as his grandfather Taiga. Three generations of Golden Knight!

Garo: Moonbow Traveler will be released in Japanese cinemas on October 4th. In the meantime, you can check out the full trailer below.

This week we saw confirmation that the popular Shinkcchou Seihou Garo mold would be making a return in a new release as S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Garo Raiga Saejima Version. As it turns out though, the official images have just revealed something else about this release…

Indeed, Garo Raiga Saejima Version reproduces the armor as it was worn by Kouga’s son Raiga. This means the figure is absolutely identical to the original release aside from Raiga’s unique blue eyes. These images do confirm that this release will also include the iconic cape worn by several users of the Golden Knight’s armor on top of the obviously included hands and sword. However, the real surprise here is that this release will ALSO include another alternate head with red eyes, to create Garo Taiga Saejima Version! So you have the option to display this figure as either Raiga OR his grandfather Taiga! We suspect some multiples may be purchased by a few collectors…

Shinkocchou Seihou Garo Raiga & Taiga Saejima Version will be released in October 2019 and retails for 9990 yen, which is a mere 90 yen more than the original release! Those new accessories are a pretty great value for that 90 yen. This figure will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive so be sure to pursue it through your preferred middleman service.

Confirmed via a new Figure King scan, the Shinkocchou Seihou Garo line is growing by one more new release!

S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Garo Raiga Saejima Version will look quite familiar to most collectors. Raiga’s golden knight form is actually identical to his father Kouga’s aside from one very small detail. The eye color. Kouga’s version of the armor featured green eyes, while notably Raiga’s armor has blue eyes. Should Bandai want to triple dip on this mold they could even do Kouga’s father Taiga. His armor featured red eyes.

While we don’t have any sort of confirmation of the figure’s accessories, it’s a safe bet that they’d be identical to the first release. Though there’s some hope of some alternate inclusions as well. Otherwise this figure appears largely unchanged from the first Seihou Garo release. According to the scan Shinkocchou Seihou Garo Raiga Saejima Ver. will be released in October 2019 for 9990 yen as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. Expect a full set of official images in the near future!
