Akiba Showroom: S.H. MonsterArts Mothra, Robot Spirits Kshatriya, FiguartsZERO Vegeta and more!































Bluefin Offerings for April/May 2014




S.H.Figuarts: Kamen Rider Kabuto (Rider Form)


"Walking the path of Heaven; the man who will rule over all."

The continually evolving S.H.Figuarts series has achieved yet another milestone in action figure technology!  Kamen Rider Kabuto rejoins the S.H.Figuarts series, this time featuring enhanced articulation without compromising the accuracy of the design.  By capturing the proportions of the actual suit actor and employing overlaid bone, frame, and muscle diagrams, an unparalleled sculpt of Kamen Rider Kabuto has been rendered exactly as he appeared in the series.  Enhanced articulation allows for him to naturally perform his roundhouse style Rider Kick while naturally highlighting the form and function of the human body.  Two types of Kabuto Kunai Gun accessories are included for both gun and sword modes, as well as a multitude of interchangeable hands.  'Clock Up' and grab this one at lightning speed.

Robot Spirits: Kshatriya


The massive Kshatriya Mobile Suit that battled the Unicorm Gundam in the Mobile Suit Gundam UC series joins the Robot Spirits line!  The Kshatriya features its appropriately sized massive form, complete with a variety of effects, including a historical first- a Funnel Rack opening gimmick!  A total of 24 Funnel connector arms, as well as Funnel effect parts (6 large and 6 small), and 8 thruster effect parts are featured in set.  Two beam sabers, as well as the ReZEL beam saber used in Episode 1 are also included, along with three sets of interchangeable hand parts for dynamic posing options.

Figuarts ZERO: Sailor Moon


She's back!  Sailor Moon joins the established ranks of the Figuarts ZERO series with her upgraded 'Sailor Moon R' design!  Sculpted in an all-new larger scale, she has been meticulously crafted in exquisite detail by the team at VOLKS- the original makers of the popular garage kits released during the original TV anime broadcast twenty years ago.  With special attention to not only proportions and accuracy, but also attention to color and detail, Sailor Moon’s uniform employs an elegant pearlescent paint with subtle shadows for added effect.  Her 'Cutey Moon Rod', hair, and crescent moon shaped stand all use translucent parts, while her boots stand out against her smooth skin with a glossed enamel shine. 

S.H.Figuarts: Momo Velia Deviluke


From the To Love-ru Darkness manga series, Momo Velia Deviluke joins the S.H.Figuarts series!   Clad in a Sainan High School uniform, the “Third Princess of Deviluke” comes complete with her Devilukean tail, D-Dial, and vine. The suggestively versatile vine is constructed with soft material to portray the character’s plant control powers, which can be used with the separately sold S.H.Figuarts Konjiki no Yami (Golden Darkness).  Two interchangeable facial expressions are included, as well as interchangeable hands (3 left, 4 right) are also featured in the set to depict a variety of situations. As an added bonus, a special display stand is also included.
