Kaiyodo is turning the Shibuya showdown from Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris into a plastic model kit. The ARTPLA SCULPTURE WORKS Gamera (1999) Re:Imagination captures the moment Gamera prepares to finish off Gyaos Hyper, with sculptor Shinobu Matsumura handling the biological detailing.
The kit features a shell made of individual parts that layer like armor, and the plasma fireball can be attached or left off. The base recreates Shibuya's buildings to emphasize the kaiju's scale. It is a non-scale HIPS kit, about 165mm tall, molded in grayish blue.
Preorders run from July 31 at noon to August 28 at 3 p.m., with a planned October release. Assembly and plastic model cement are required.
