Hot on the heels of the Gavan/Dekaranger Space Squad movie announcement is a brand new revel for Metal Hero collectors. Possibly to coincide with the upcoming films’ release is S.H. Figuars Space Sheriff Gavan Type G (Space Squad)! Pictures from the C3Tokyo event, and this figure, come via Figsoku.

We don’t currently have any confirmed release details for this figure. What we can tell you is that a renewal of the Gavan S.H. Figuarts mold was first revealed way back at Tamashii Nations 2014. Though it never actually saw release. This film may finally be the excuse Bandai needed to release the renewal Gavan body, with Type G beating out original Gavan.

As we get more confirmed details for S.H. Figuars Space Sheriff Gavan Type G (Space Squad) we’ll keep you updated.

This expensive collector piece was revealed only yesterday, but now we have our first official look at the Tamashii Lab Laser Blade from Space Sheriff Gavan! 

As reported previously this impressive item features an IR sensor that lets the Laser Blade detect your hand as you slide ir up the blade to “charge” it in the same way that Gavan does for his Gavan Dynamic attack. Whilst doing so you can press a button on the hilt to the either the series BGM, or rapidly press it to recreate sound effects from the show. These images also confirm the inclusion of the fantastic set of display hands to hold the Laser blade. See the promo video below with the legendary actor who played Gavan, Mr. Kenji Ohba, demonstrating these wonderful features.
