In case you missed it Max Factory announced that three SSSS Gridman characters were on their way to Figma: Gridman himself, along with Akane and Rikka. But it seems like Figma won’t be the only way for collectors to enjoy those characters: with Goodsmile’s Nendoroid SSSS.Gridman, Rikka, and Akane were also just recently revealed in cute chibified forms. 

At the moment, only Gridman himself appears to be fully painted with Akane still in the early development with Akane only existing as concept art.

Be sure to stay tuned to Tokunation though, and we’ll bring you more info as it becomes available.

Renowned anime streaming service CrunchyRoll has announced they will be offering the new Studio Trigger series SSSS Gridman!

This project is based on cult classic tokusatsu series Denkou Chojin Gridman! A brief synopsis for this new anime project has also been provided:

Yuta Hibiki can’t remember who he is, and now he’s seeing and hearing things that others don’t! A voice from an old computer tells him to remember his calling, and he sees a massive, unmoving creature in the distance. Nothing’s making sense—until the behemoth springs to life! Suddenly, Yuta is pulled into the digital world, reappearing in the real one as the colossal hero—Gridman!

Exact release details have not been confirmed at time of writing, but SSSS Gridman is currently scheduled to begin October 7 2018! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this exciting project!

Remember last Wonder Fest and the slew of awesome merch that was revealed for Studio Trigger’s upcoming SSSS.Gridman Anime? One of those products shown was the small-scale Actibuilder SSSS Gridman, and he’s finally ready for production with a plethora of images having come out via Figsoku.

MegaHouse’s Actibuilder SSSS Gridman will see a release in March 2019. Collectors will be able to choose from two options: either the figure stand-alone or in a set with the auxiliary vehicles.

To get the complete set, you’ll need 16,800 yen while the stand-alone figure will run you 5250 yen. Keep in mind that this figure stands at about 10cms tall, so it will be a tad small if you collect the S.H.Figuarts line.
