Continuing our jaunt through Kamen Rider Gaim, Bandai Tamashii just unveiled their prototype of the S.I.C Kamen Rider Gaim ichigo Arms, sporting a very sleek ninja-esque look.
The prototype was seen on display presumably at the Tamashii Nations showroom in Akihabara thanks to Twitter user @kobax27. Currently, this piece remains as a display only figure and there’s no indication if Bandai will release this figure in some way or another. Stay tuned, and we’ll bring more info on this strawberry flavored release as it becomes available.
