MODEROID Gurren Lagann Returns in Deformed Style for December 2026

Good Smile Company announced a second re-release of the MODEROID Gurren Lagann plastic model kit from the TV anime Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The non-scale assembly kit stands approximately 140mm tall and uses five colored runners: red, yellow, gray, beige, and clear black, allowing builders to recreate the in-show appearance through assembly alone. Included accessories are the Guren Boomerang, a drill, and interchangeable hand parts, with joints that offer a wide range of motion for recreating scenes from the series. By swapping the head parts, the kit can also reproduce the Lagann form. The product is priced at 4,500 yen including tax, with reservations open from August 6, 2026, to September 16, 2026, and shipping scheduled for December 2026. Orders placed during the reservation period at the official Good Smile Company shop are guaranteed delivery, with a purchase limit of three units per person. The kit can be displayed alongside the separately sold Nendoroid Simon figure, and the Gurren Lagann Head Display Base and expression parts from that figure are exchangeable with this model.

The MODEROID Gurren Lagann kit was designed by Masakazu Owa of MO Craft, who handled the 3D modeling and design. The kit is distributed by Good Smile Company and is scheduled for release in December 2026. This marks the second re-release of the kit, following its initial run and a prior reissue.

The deformed style preserves the iconic proportions of the protagonist mecha while keeping the assembly simple enough that no painting is required. The five colored runners are arranged so that the finished model matches the series appearance straight out of the box. The interchangeable hand parts and joint articulation are intended to support dynamic poses, and the head part swap to the Lagann form adds a second display option without additional parts.

Good Smile Company positions the kit as a companion piece to the Nendoroid Simon figure, which is sold separately. The exchangeable head display base and expression parts from that figure work with this model, allowing collectors to combine the two products for scene recreation. The reservation window runs from August 6 to September 16, 2026, and the official shop guarantees delivery for orders placed within that period.
