The popular action figure series 'S.H.Figuarts', released by TAMASHII NATIONS, the collector's toy division of Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS Company, recently exhibited prototypes of three new products from the theatrical anime film 'Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM': 'Kira Yamato', 'Athrun Zala', and 'Lacus Clyne'. Release dates are yet to be determined.
The theatrical anime film 'Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM', released nearly 20 years after the conclusion of the TV anime series, will once again feature Mitsuo Fukuda as the animation director. It will utilize the script left by his late wife, screenwriter Chiaki Morosawa, to develop a brand new story set in C.E. 75, following the events of 'SEED-D'.
After the great war, the anti-Coordinator organization 'Blue Cosmos' continues to incite conflicts worldwide. The formerly opposing Earth Alliance and P.L.A.N.T, along with the neutral nation Orb, jointly established the world peace monitoring organization 'COMPASS'. Lacus Clyne, the driving force behind ending the war, serves as its first president, and Kira Yamato and others act as members of the organization, intervening in conflicts across the globe. Against this backdrop, the emerging nation 'FOUNDATION', which seceded from the Eurasian Federation, proposed a joint operation plan to 'COMPASS' to dispatch troops to the Blue Cosmos stronghold...。
In addition to the standard-proportion action figures from the 'S.H.Figuarts' series, Bandai also exhibited the chibi-style, low-head-proportion action figures from the 'Figuarts mini' series. Kira, Lacus, and Athrun are all being rendered in 3D with their brand-new designs as seen in 'Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM'.
