Andromeda God Cloth

Andromeda God Cloth

The 48th Shizuoka Hobby Show 2009 (May 2009) presented to us the prototype of Andromeda Shun in God Cloth and the object form, as seen on the right.

And this is the after-event report on Myth Cloth from Tamashii.jp:

【聖闘士聖衣神話】

聖闘士聖衣神話からは2009年8月下旬に発売決定の『ペガサステンマ』と『アンドロメダ瞬(神聖衣)』の2アイテムを出展。

魂ウェブ イベント＆キャンペーン 第48回静岡ホビーショー ペガサステンマは、聖闘士聖矢の時代を約200年近く遡る、18世紀ヨーロッパを舞台にした車田正美氏原作のもと『週刊少年チャンピオン』で連載中、6月 24日からOVAとして映像化される新シリーズ『聖闘士聖矢 THE LOST CANVAS 冥王神話』の主人公で、聖矢の前のペガサス聖衣の着衣者。

初期聖衣の意匠をベースとしたその姿に心振るわせた方も多かったのでは？『THE LOST CANVAS』シリーズも、精力的に展開していく予定なので乞うご期待。アンドロメダについては、『ORIGINAL COLOR EDITION』への期待が高まっていたようですが･･･。
その辺はこの後のTAMASHII NATIONSの動向にご注目あれ！

Tamashii Collectors: Sagittarius Object GETS DELAYED AGAIN (WTF)

I just happened to browse around Tamashii.jp website and found this. I know most of you don’t really care about this release. But when I saw this, I think it’s just ridiculous.

First, the release date was around February. They delayed it and said it would come in the end of June. We expected it to come tomorrow (June 27). And unfortunately it’s not happening. But this time, they’ve confirmed the actual release date. July 18, which is another 3 weeks from now.

Well, I feel sorry for those who are anticipating this release. I hope Bandai will do the right thing by compensating them with some gifts.

Bennu Kagaho coming in November @ 6,500 Yen (Rumor)

Posted by dvillangelo - 25/06/09 at 10:06:32 am

Without a doubt, Kagaho will come sooner or later. Not only that the 2 magazines have given us the hint, but this tiny picture (kudos to pope_shion @ SaintSeiyaToys) is telling us that Kagaho will make its appearance in November 2009 with price tag of 6,500 Yen. Like it or not? It seems to be true.

Figure Oh No.137

Figure Oh No.137

Figure Oh No.137

In This Issue:

  • Pegasus Tenma of Lost Canvas OVA, upcoming August release
  • Hint on future release, Bennu Kagaho of Lost Canvas OVA

The latest Figure Ou No.137 for the month of August is out. This time is a full coverage on Pegasus Tenma, and little hint of future release, Bennu Kagaho. So far, there is no price and release has been confirmed yet in the magazine. On one hand, this is totally out of our expectation. On the other hand, I bet most people are anticipating him, more than any other specters. This is totally a marketing strategy by Bandai. Very smart!! Why? The next few paragraphs and the magazine scans will explain to you why.

New Hobby Japan hints us Bennu Kagaho

Posted by dvillangelo - 23/06/09 at 11:06:42 pm

Believe or not. The rumor of the first 5 Lost Canvas release that I posted 2 weeks ago may sound just a rumor after all. But this one has some backers to prove its realiability. The latest Hobby Japan is telling us that Bennu Kagaho is going to come out. It is sooner than what we expect.

Below is posted by our friend, Shun @ HobbyHype. Thanks to our source, philostrate @ all4seiya.

Megrez Alberich has finally come out and here is the metal plate design. The cover resembles the last 2 Asgardian’s metal plate cover. Very simple and elegant. The color is similar to that of Fenrir’s.

Da Vinci Code solved! Dragon God Cloth is next?

Posted by dvillangelo - 22/06/09 at 12:06:35 am

Another Da Vinci Code is solved, based on the new Andromeda God Cloth Box Art that I posted few days ago. Well, nothing new. The code was exactly the same as the one on Pegasus God Cloth Box Art. The code shows us the sequence of the upcoming god cloth releases. This is the same sequence of their appearance in the Hades Elysion chapter OVA.

I would expect Dragon Shiryu (God Cloth) in first half of 2010. The earlier the release date is, the better it is. I guess all of you are excited about this, as well.
