【Gavan Infinity】Detailed metallic silver and blue with high articulation and police handbook! S.H.Figuarts Gavan Bushido arrives!

Tokusatsu fans, an item that lets you feel a new charm of Space Sheriffs has appeared! What is introduced this time is the S.H.Figuarts three-dimensionalizing “Gavan Bushido” appearing in “Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity”. Hearing Gavan, many people probably think of a shining silver Combat Suit. However, this time's Gavan Bushido features a unique design reminiscent of Japanese samurai while inheriting traditional Space Sheriff-likeness. The figure clad in armor reminiscent of a haori has an atmosphere that lets you feel a period drama swordsman somewhere, while being a near-future hero. Since such an individualistic hero can be enjoyed with sculpting technology and articulation performance unique to S.H.Figuarts, this is intriguing, isn't it?

What wants attention paid to first in Gavan Bushido's figure is the metallic colors applied all over the body. Combining a blue shine with the silver-based Combat Suit, it has become a finish pursuing the impressive textures in the show. In particular, the blue gradation changing toward the tips of the limbs gives unique expressions to the metallic body that tends to become monotonous. Also, ingenuity is applied so that the lines continuing from the chest to the waist look natural, achieving both the strength typical of an armored hero and a smart silhouette that lets you feel ease of movement. Turning eyes to detailed armor details as well, the charm possessed by Gavan Bushido's design seems likely to be savored more deeply.

Speaking of action figures, being able to freely strike poses is after all a major enjoyment, isn't it? In this product, making use of the balance between range of motion and proportions that S.H.Figuarts excels at, various actions of Gavan Bushido can be expressed. From a quiet stance reminiscent of a samurai to a dynamic figure imagining the moment of slashing at an enemy, creating scenes to your own preference is a charm. Because it is sculpting that also considers the connection between chest and waist, the body lines when changing poses are also a place to pay attention to. Not only displaying standing, but by moving while calling to mind battle scenes in the show, affection toward the character seems likely to deepen further.

What cannot be missed in particular in this time's figure is the abundance of weapon parts. Amazingly, two “Gavarion Blades” used by Gavan Bushido are included. In other words, the figure fighting with dual-wielding swords can be reproduced. The figure holding swords in both left and right hands has gallantry truly worthy of the name Bushido. Pointing one sword forward, holding the other close, enjoyment expands just by thinking of combinations of poses. Battle expressions using swords are important elements making the Japanese taste of this character stand out. Being able to thoroughly reproduce unique actions combining the sci-fi worldview of Space Sheriffs and swordsmanship at hand is pleasing, isn't it?

What is indispensable when talking about Gavan Bushido's charm is the “Gavarion Trigger”, which is both a transformation item and a weapon. This item is included with this product, featuring specifications where the “Emorgia” can be detached. In the show, Setsuna Aikokuin loads the Emorgia of “Sorrow”, “Hisoo”, and activates the Gavan System. By fusing Gavarion particles and Hisoo Emorgy, the silver Combat Suit is Jouchaku-equipped. At transformation, holding it to cover the right half of the face with the trigger, and showing a motion like swinging down a blade after firing is also impressive. Being able to play while imagining such unique transformation productions is an irresistible point for fans.

The one who transforms into Gavan Bushido is Setsuna Aikokuin, who operates on Multiverse Earth Λ8018. What symbolizes his characteristics is the setting of turning the emotion of sorrow into power. In the mask and eye areas, there is a unique luminous pattern looking as if tears are falling, creating an impression differing from conventional Gavans. While mounting a light-emitting function is not explicitly stated regarding this time's figure, knowing the character's background should let you feel the meaning put into the exterior appearance more deeply. Furthermore, open-state parts of the Galactic Federation Police handbook are also included. Not only battles, but displays expressing the position as a Space Sheriff can also be enjoyed.

“S.H.Figuarts Gavan Bushido” is an action figure featuring beautiful metallic painting, armor design conscious of samurai, a wide range of posing, and abundant included items. Particularly, the dual-wielded Gavarion Blades and the Gavarion Trigger from which Emorgia can be attached and detached are important points in enjoying the worldview in the show. Both for those who know the Space Sheriff series of bygone days and for those who are engrossed in the activities of the new Gavan, it is a figure definitely wanting attention paid to. How about expressing the soul of a samurai dwelling in silver armor with your own posing?
