As Wonderfest 2019 gets underway we’re due for a few reveals in tokusatsu world this weekend. To kick things off we have 2 teased releases from SSSS.Gridman!

First up is Figma Rikka Takarada! The high school heroine of SSSS.Gridman and member of the Gridman Alliance is the first of the human characters to get an official product image so far. When she was teased back in November alongside series antagonist Akane Shinjo, we didn’t have a clear indication of when we’d see official prototype images. GSC has finally provided this first look via WonFest and we should be able to expect some release information for Rikka in the near future as well.

Next up is a Soft Vinyl Ghoulgilas! This Kaiju was originally teased for release back in late December with just a silhouette. Now we have our first test shot image of the figure announcing plans to roll it out for release. In case you’ve forgotten, this cyborg like dragon monster faced off against Gridman in the first episode of the series. Presumably this vinyl will be in scale with the Gridman & Grid Knight Figma’s as well. Release details should come at a later date.

We’ll be sure to keep you up to date as more WonFest 2019 news rolls in!

It’s hard to believe that Max Factory is now coming out with five Figmas from Studio Trigger’s SSSS.Gridman anime. The latest one is to join the list is the Initial Fighter recolor of the upcoming Figma SSSS.Gridman.

A Twitter post from the official SSSS.Gridman Twitter account reveals that this figure will come exclusively bundled with the DVD/Blu-Ray release of the anime so while a price point and release date have yet to be announced, we’re not expecting this to be cheap.

Yesterday we got our first real look at color prototypes for the upcoming Figma Gridman & Grid Knight from SSSS Gridman. Both look phenomenal in what little we could glean from the Figure Oh scan. Today however GSC has released a single hi-res look at this fair together for the first time! This offers the absolute best look yet at either of these Figma’s and I have to say, they look incredible together. The post this image was attached to also indicates that Figma Gridman pre-orders will begin on January 19th. 

In another surprise teaser, Goodsmile has announced that they are indeed working on at lest one Kaiju from the series. No, we don’t just mend the adorable clay model Kaiju that Nendoroid Akane Shinjo comes with, this is apparently going to be some sort of full size figure of Ghoulghilas! The cyborg like dragon monster which Gridman faced in the first episode of the series. While GSC has not indicated if this will be some sort of full scale DX, Figma, or maybe even just a vinyl figure, it’s pretty promising to see a Kaiju from the series being worked on. It was anounced in the same GSC blog update as the new Figma image.

As more information about Gridman, Grid Knight, and Ghoulghilas becomes available we’ll be sure to keep you informed.
