From Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS Collectors Division TAMASHII NATIONS, the articulated figure brand "S.H.Figuarts" today (23rd) announced its latest product from One Piece, the "Monkey D. Luffy -Gear 5-" (モンキー・D・ルフィ -ギア5-)! Scheduled for release in April 2024.
Monkey D. Luffy's Gum-Gum Fruit, after awakening to "Gear 5," also known as "Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan: Nika Form," not only significantly enhances his stretching abilities but also grants immense freedom. He can easily stretch his body in various ways, twist and turn at will, becoming the embodiment of freedom. Furthermore, he can transform his imagination into combat power, making it the most absurd power in the world. Luffy himself calls it "My peak strength....!"
This figure stands approximately 15.5 cm tall and fully recreates the various details of Luffy's latest Gear 5 form. The most exciting feature is the internal wires embedded in the limbs, which can be considered the optimal solution for balancing overall aesthetics with the playability suited for this form. The shirt, belt, and pants are also partially made from soft materials to minimize interference with articulation. In addition to a pair of interchangeable extended arms for displaying a wider range of combat poses, it also includes four interchangeable face parts, one interchangeable head sculpt that can be combined with the "SHF Luffy -Onigashima Raid-" figure, multiple interchangeable hands, and translucent lightning effects. It truly looks excellent! Skillfully use the included stand to display the free-spirited Gear 5 Luffy!
