Kira Yamato and Athrun Zala from the movie “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM” are now available in the “Rukappu” figure series, featuring figures in looking up and sitting poses. Pre-orders are currently being accepted on the online shopping site “AmiAmi”.
The “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED” series is set in the era of “CE (Cosmic Era),” where humans born with genetically altered superior physical abilities and intelligence (Coordinators) exist, and humans born naturally (Naturals), and depicts the battle between Coordinators and Naturals. “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED,” which depicts the events from CE71, was broadcast as a TV anime from 2002 to 2003, and “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY,” which depicts the events from CE73, was broadcast from 2004 to 2005, and has since been developed in various media.
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM is the latest film in the series, released on January 26, 2024, about 20 years after CE75, as a theatrical version depicting a completely new story. It has surpassed Mobile Suit Gundam III: Encounters in Space (2.3 billion yen) released in 1982 to become the highest grossing film in the Gundam series. The second “limited time special edition” with over 500 updated scenes from the main story will be released on November 1st.
The two main characters from this work, Kira Yamato and Athrun Zala, have both been turned into adorable deformed figures. They are part of the “Rukappu” figure series, a coined word based on “look up,” and are characterized by their looking up and sitting poses.
Kira and his childhood friend Athrun are both sitting in their pilot suits. You’ll want to collect these two who have chosen to fight together side by side.
The figure is posed looking up at you, so when you display it on a desk, your eyes will meet it more easily than with a normal figure. If you happen to look at it, you’ll find yourself wanting to stare at it forever.
The neck is also movable, so you can enjoy different expressions. The figure is about 11cm tall and has plenty of volume.
The price of “Rukappu Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM Kira Yamato Complete Figure” and “Rukappu Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM Athrun Zala Complete Figure” are 4,620 yen each (tax included).
