Good Smile Company’s Pacific Rim MODEROID Crimson Typhoon Unleashes Its Three-Armed Thundercloud Formation

Good Smile Company is bringing the three-armed Jaeger from the hit sci-fi movie "Pacific Rim" to its MODEROID plastic model line with MODEROID Crimson Typhoon! Priced at ¥12,000 (tax included), the kit is scheduled for release in June 2027.

Crimson Typhoon is a Mark-4 Jaeger built by China in "Pacific Rim". Piloted by the Wei Tang triplets, it is one of the rare Jaegers operated by a three-person team and has repeatedly defended Hong Kong’s harbor from Kaiju attacks. Its unmistakable design features two arms on the right side, one on the left, and a vivid crimson armored shell. In battle, its hands transform into spinning saw blades to execute its signature attack, the Thundercloud Formation.

Standing approximately 7.9 inches tall, MODEROID Crimson Typhoon faithfully recreates the Jaeger’s design using 3DCG data from the movie. Bright red armor surrounds its dark mechanical joints, while the stacked pair of right arms and oversized left arm preserve the machine’s striking asymmetrical silhouette. All three arms can be freely posed. Interchangeable parts allow the two right hands to be displayed in either standard or spinning configurations, while the left arm can be converted into its deployed configuration for a full three-armed combat stance.

The kit includes interchangeable hands, along with both pre-painted and unpainted translucent parts for builders who prefer either a straightforward assembly or a custom paint job. Color-separated runners, pre-painted parts, and decals recreate the gold Chinese-inspired patterns across the armor and the lion dance motif on its shoulder, producing a movie-accurate color scheme with minimal painting required.
