Thanks to toy magazine scans, we have a new official image gallery of the up coming web exclusive S.H.Figuarts Gavan figure.

At New York Comic Con 2012, I had the honor and privilege to interview the Bandai of Japan Rep that works closely with their US distributor: BlueFin. Being Tamashii Nation‘s sole distributor outside of Japan, many wondered if BlueFin has became more than just a distributor for Tamashii Nation? I asked Adam these questions and more, and Adam had some very cool answers for us, please watch the video below:
The Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA Facebook page has posted a photo of 2 cosplayers as Rita Repulsa & Lord Zedd. Their caption:
[Quote]Figuarts of these 2 would be cool right? We’ll see how things go with what’s already planned![/quote]
Fire away! Do you want to see S.H. Figuarts Rita Repulsa & S.H. Figuarts Lord Zedd? Would the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers 20th Anniversary be complete without them? DISCUSS!
