“Reddo Fight!”

A while back we reviewed the very first figure in Evolution Toy’s Hero Action Figure (HAF) line. HAF Redman was unfortunately a mixed bag of QC issues. In the time since that figure’s release, the first and now second volume’s of the amazing REDMAN comic from Phase 6 and Night Shining. Series writer & artist Matthew Frank has crafted and truly compelling reinvention of the Redman story and breathed new life into an otherwise obscure cult character. Thanks to Matt we also got our hands on the subject of today’s gallery.

Today we’re looking at the incredibly limited Tokyo Comic Con exclusive REDMAN Volume 2 Dark Channel Edition! Not only does this version of volume 2 feature an exclusive limited cover differing from the retail version, but the Dark Channel also came packed with the the even more limited (just 300 pieces!) HAF Redman Dark Version! Thankfully, Matt was kind enough to pick up a Dark Channel Edition for us while he was set up at the Tokyo con, and was also generous enough to sign inside my personal copy of Japanese volume 2. Redman Dark himself is a familiar figure if you’ve handled the original, but there’s something to be said for a sleek black color scheme and some truly incredible glow-in-the-dark eyes.

You may recall that back in September, TokuNation reviewed the fantastic Redman Kaiju Hunter Volume 1. Redman’s english publisher and distributor Night Shining has now announced their release details for Volume 2!

But the big news is the massive Redman Maximum Darkness Pack version of volume 2! This unique set will include:

The Redman Maximum Darkness Pack featuring the EXCLUSIVE Evolution Toys HAF Redman Dark action figure. This figure has a production run of only 300 and was an exclusive for the Tokyo Comic Con. As a Tsuburaya Productions/Phase6 partner we were able to secure a VERY limited quantity of 50 figures from that exclusive run.

Also included with the Redman Maximum Darkness Pack is a Redman Dark Chase Trading card (only available in the  “Dark” and “Darkness” packs), the Redman Volume 2 Graphic Novel, The exclusive Redman Volume 1 reprint w/ new cover, Redman sticker sheet and a VERY limited Redman Dark variant T-shirt (only available in this pack).

***Note*** The first 125 orders that include the Redman Volume 2 Graphic Novel will also receive an EXCLUSIVE Redman: Volume 2 Japanese Cover Chase card.

TokuNation was actually lucky enough to obtain one of these extremely limited HAF Redman Dark figures from Tokyo Comic Con and will have a full photo gallery of it in the near future as well. And a full length review Redman Volume 2 is also on the way next month! Be sure to check back as we continue down the path of the violent hero Redman!

You may recall that last week, we reported on an upcoming special release of Redman Volume 2 for Tokyo Comic Con. This will be the first release of volume 2 ahead of it’s general Japanese language release in mid-December. An English language release has still yet to be announced.

However, Evolution Toy let it slip a little early last week that they would be offering a Redman 2: Dark Channel Dark Limited Edition. This special edition will include a brand new offering from their HAF Hero Action Figure line in the form of Redman Dark! Now, we have our very first official look at this figure thanks to a follow up tweet from Evolution. Redman Dark is a character that is (so far) exclusive to Redman Volume 2, and his figure will be even more exclusive. Included only in the Redman 2: Dark Channel Limited Edition at Tokyo Comic Con, this set will retail for 12,000 yen.

Redman Dark revealed!

Volume 2 of Redman, titled Dark Channel, is about to see it’s initial release at the upcoming Tokyo Comic Con on November 30th. And in a special collaboration between Phase 6, Tsuburaya, and Evolution Toy, there will also be a special limited edition Tokyocon release of volume 2.

Limited to 300 pieces. This release features an exclusive cover as well as postcards featuring Matthew Frank’s fantastic artwork. This exclusive cover also features the very first appearance and reveal of Redman Dark! Exactly who, and what this new character is, especially in relation to Redman himself, is yet to be seen unless you’re been lucky enough to grab one of these special early release volume 2’s. However, the biggest surprise of this bundle comes by way of Evolution’s involvement, as it will include an HAF (Hero Action Figure) of Redman Dark!

Though there are no pictures yet of this figure, Evolution Toy promises to reveal a sample soon. Redman 2: Dark Channel Dark Limited Edition will retail for 12,500 yen at Tokyo Comic Con.
