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.
