Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Arms Joins S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Line
BANDAI SPIRITS announced that Kamen Rider Zangetsu, from the 2013 series "Kamen Rider Gaim," will join the S.H.Figuarts (Shinkocchou Seihou) action figure line. The figure, in his basic Melon Arms form, will be available for preorder on Premium Bandai and the Tamashii Web Shop starting Friday, August 7, 2026, at 16:00 JST. The figure stands approximately 145mm tall and is priced at 11,000 yen (tax included), with shipping scheduled for March 2027. The sculpt reproduces the melon rind texture of the armor and the wrinkles of the undersuit Ride Wear, along with the scale-like designs on the forearms and thighs. The shoulder armor has movable parts that open outward, allowing a range of action poses. The figure includes the sword-type weapon Musou Saber, which features a face plate exclusive to Zangetsu and can hold a Melon Lockseed in its guard. The shield-type Arms Weapon Melon Defender is also included. The Sengoku Driver belt has a movable Cutting Blade to recreate finisher activation poses. The Melon Lockseed comes in normal and panel-open states, and the armor can be swapped with other Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Gaim figures.
