background

Komura:
TAMASHII STORE limited items are available at TAMASHII NATIONS Official Shop (https://tamashiiweb.com/store/) Limited edition products,
The planning staff at BANDAI SPIRITS Collectors Division will come up with the commercialization plan, and the products will then be sold in stores.
Until now, I haven't had a chance to ask the store staff or the planning staff about the process of commercializing this product, so I would like to hear about it this time!

Tsujimon:
First of all, the brand is based on SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU10As we celebrate our anniversary, we are releasing this product in the hope that even more people will be able to get their hands on it.
20245Monthly shipping of "S.H.FiguartsWith all of Kuuga's Form now available in "MASKED RIDER KUUGA RISINGTITAN (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)," we thought this would be a good time to select this product for inclusion in TAMASHII STORE exclusive lineup.

Comparison

Komura:
first"S.H.FiguartsRegarding the (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)" brand,S.H.FiguartsI would appreciate it if you could explain again the differences between this and the previous version.

Tsujimon:
Official brand page (https://tamashiiweb.com/item_brand/shinkocchou/) is also mentioned,S.H.Figuarts(SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)" is made by sculpting the human skeleton, gluing muscles together and putting on armor. The sculptor Hibiki Nagashio (Company name: Hibiki Nagashio) estimated the human skeleton of Kuuga at the time of broadcast and created the armor.GB2) is made from bones, and the normalSHFiguarts "MaskThe number of steps is smaller than the "Rider" series.3It took twice as long to make. We were also conscious of the human body's skeleton when it came to mobility, so we made it so that both the shape and the movement were compatible, so I hope you'll actually move the product and feel it. Also, "Kuuga" is the first in the SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU series.3Since this is a 2000 yen product, we would like you to also pick up the latest works "Ryuki" and "Gaim",10We hope you can feel the evolution of SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU over the years!

*Model for consideration by Hibiki Nagashio, S.H.Figuarts (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU) MASKED RIDER KUUGA Mighty Form

Komura:
The original prototype sculpted by Nagashio is amazing.
S.H.FiguartsThis is the first commercialization of MASKED RIDER KUUGA Mighty Form (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)"3This is the 1st time, but each product has different details such as texture, so it is clear that they are not just re-releases. In addition to the shape, the paintwork and joints have been brushed up to make it easier to approach.

Tsujimon:
Whenever we renew a product, we take into consideration surveys we receive from our users and other information to reconsider the product specifications.
for example"S.H.Figuarts(SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU) MASKED RIDER KABUTO Rider Form"S.H.Figuarts(SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU) MASKED RIDER HIBIKI20244As a commemorative item for the Tsuki SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU TAMASHII STORE Store event,10th ANNIVERSARY" was sold as
Kabuto's wrists are now ball jointed, and Hibiki's coloring has been newly expressed using polarized paint. Our previous products were also wonderful, so we wanted to make sure that this product was just as good, so we looked at the results of surveys we received from our users and looked into whether we could come up with a specification that would surprise and delight our users, and we have created a new specification.

Image division format.jpg

Komura:
Both products have a completely new paint finish that looks amazing!
For this Kuuga color, the red has changed from a slightly metallic, shiny red to a matte red with a relatively subdued shine. Was there a goal or focus behind this?

Tsujimon:
2000In order to get closer to the image of Kuuga that fans saw on the screen when "MASKED RIDER KUUGA" was first broadcast in 2015, the red and gold coloring has been revised, and I think the coloring will make it easier for fans to remember "this is what Kuuga looked like when he was in action on screen."

Komura:
Not only the chest armor, but the red on the arms is matte, and the color of the black parts of the body has also changed.

Tsujimon:
The coloring for this version has been completely reconsidered from scratch, and the revisions have been based on the materials from that time, so we chose colors with a more matte feel that echoes the Kuuga that everyone saw on the screen.

Komura:
Mighty Form often gives the impression of fighting amongst gravel and dust, so I think it has a great texture that gives you a sense of the atmosphere of the battles in the movie!

Komura:
In terms of small painted areas, the gold on the tear lines under the compound eyes on the head isLIt is written in letters, and inked Lint lettering has been added around the Adam on the belt.

Tsujimon:
As expected from Komura-san! You have a good eye for it. TAMASHII STORE Store limited edition Kuuga has the Lint lettering around Arcle's Adam recreated by inking. It is a very difficult area to ink with such small details, but it has been inked carefully during production!

P2900870.jpgP2900874.jpg

Komura:
It makes me want it more and more...!
I had the chance to touch it early, and because it's made using SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU, the range of motion remains the same and is very well-maintained.
The figure is designed to move just like the human body, so you can recreate Kuuga's kicks and other action poses.

Tsujimon:
The rolling movement of the inner thighs allows for the pose that is synonymous with Kuuga, as shown in the product photo, to be posed in a cool, tense pose.

Komura:
You've created muscles that look great while still allowing for movement.
When I touch it, I get the feeling that it has been designed to be fun to play with as an action figure.

P2900878.jpg

P2900910.jpg

Komura:
From the high-contrast product photos, like the visuals of the TV programs at the time,
This time, I particularly felt the intention to "recreate Kuuga as it was when it was first broadcast using current technology!"
By the way, when it comes to photo shoots, is the person planning the shoot in charge of posing?

item_0000015260_FunYG390_01.jpg

Tsujimon:
Together with the photographer, we worked out the poses and composition,1We took the photos while being mindful of every millimeter. The pose of Kuuga, which was used as the main visual for the program at the time, must have left an impression on everyone, so we absolutely wanted to capture it, and conveyed our passion to the photographer. This product photo is also used as the packaging design.

Komura:
It matches the black packaging design of TAMASHII STORE exclusive products and looks really cool!

商品

Komura:
Kuuga has been commercialized in many ways within the SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU series, so it is certainly popular.
I personally bought the series too.

Tsujimon:
Thank you. As mentioned earlier, the Mighty Form from MASKED RIDER KUUGA3This is the 1st commercialization of this product, and we feel that it has been extremely popular among our users. We believe that we were able to commercialize it as a TAMASHII STORE limited item due to the passionate feelings of our users towards Kuuga.
last year2024"Tamashii Nation" held in2024" I was explaining the brand using Kuuga in the exhibition of SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU,S.H.FiguartsThe brand's originator, the "attached transformation," started with Kuuga.S.H.Figuarts"And"S.H.FiguartsThe (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)" brand was born, and in fact, if you think about "attaching transformation," Kuuga is the product with the longest history.S.H.FiguartsI wonder if the " brand" would not have been born.

"Soul Nation2024"How SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU is made" Panel/Prototype display

Komura:
That's true! I was excited to see all the previous Kuuga products displayed side by side at that exhibit.
All Form of the S.H.Figuarts (SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)" MASKED RIDER KUUGA" series have already been released, but I would like to have other characters such as Gurongi and Gowram relative to them. I remember I was very happy to see that the already commercialized Ultimate Form and N Daguba Zeba can be combined in episode 48 "Soraga".

Tsujimon:
Since there are many impressive stories in the work, including the battle against Dagba in episode 48 "Kukuga", I believe there are many users and fans who would like to recreate various scenes. There are also characters and machines such as motorcycles that have not yet been commercialized in the S.H.Figuarts series, such as the powerful enemy Go-Gadol Ba, Trigo-Ram, and Beat-Go-Ram.

the work

Komura:
I watched "Kuuga" in real time when I was a child, and I still rewatch it regularly.
I've been watching it again since the special episode aired the other day, and the Grongi are still scary (lol)

Tsujimon:
I'm from a generation where "MASKED RIDER ZO" was the perfect time, but I love Kamen Rider and when "Kuuga" was on the air, I bought the "Souken Henshin" and enjoyed it as a toy. The details of the various settings and the characters are also great. It was a morning show, but even as a kid, I felt like I was watching an adult drama.

Komura:
I didn't understand it when I was a kid, but I think Kuuga is a well-established work with a deep drama and a strong unique image that has never been similar before or since. Even in one action scene, there is a sense of tension that it wouldn't be strange for either of them to be defeated, and when Jump to a high place, he changes into Dragon Form, and when he lands, he changes into Mighty Form and fights, and the realism of how he uses different forms depending on the purpose is fascinating.

Tsujimon:
In terms of action, the way the weapons are used and the interactions between them are so natural, it's the kind of show that makes you want to buy the toys in particular.

Komura:
When I come across iron bars and corn burrs, which were made before they were changed into dragon rods, at hardware stores, I always want them... (laughs)

Tsujimon:
When I was a kid, I would imitate the dragon Form whenever I picked up a broom or something (lol). There are a lot of action poses that I want to imitate, and punches/There are many poses where even a single kick or running pose makes it obvious that it's Kuuga.

Komura:
I want to recreate that in a figure, so I keep buying them...

Posture

Komura:
I'm a big fan of Kuuga.2Because people are gathering,
S.H.Figuarts(SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU) MASKED RIDER KUUGA Mighty Form-Store Limited Edition-Using

Komura:
This is the pose Kuuga makes when he lands after kicking, and I love how beautiful it is even in the midst of a brutal battle.
Thanks to the mobility that allows you to add twists in various places, it looks great.

Tsujimon:
S.H.Figuarts(SHINKOCCHOU SEIHOU)" is a technique that allows you to create cool action poses that look just like the real thing, and it is what is so special about "Kuuga".2I chose a pose that depicts the memorable scene in the story where he first transforms into his Mighty Form in the church.

Komura:
If you pose Kuuga, it definitely looks like a battle scene.
Since she has kindly posed, we will be displaying the sample in front of the TAMASHII STORE Store!
