Solitude, Trust, Legacy: Three words hold the key to this new story.
The REAL ACTION HEROES series is MEDICOM TOY's 1/6 scale fully articulated action figure line. Since its inception in 1996, it has been the company's flagship product, boasting a long history. It is highly acclaimed by fans both domestically and internationally for its technical prowess in faithfully reproducing props and design drawings, the development of original body frames like "RAH301" and "RAH301改," and its meticulously detailed specifications.
Among these, the "Kamen Rider" series has brought to life the main riders from virtually all works across the Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa eras. The "REAL ACTION HEROES Kamen Rider (Shin Kamen Rider)" introduced here is the latest installment.
While the story of "Shin Kamen Rider" remains shrouded in mystery until its release, director Hideaki Anno, known for his deep admiration for Kamen Rider, is sure to deliver a work that exceeds our expectations.
The "REAL ACTION HEROES Kamen Rider (Shin Kamen Rider)" is scheduled for release in December 2023. For now, please take a close look at the meticulously recreated details of each part.
Head
The head mask, which follows the design of the old No. 1 (the original Kamen Rider), features precise sculpting to recreate its texture. The hair on the back of the head is also reproduced as imagined.
Chest
The chest converterラング and other body parts are made of soft material to allow for flexible movement. Various hand parts are included to support a wide range of poses.
