The original mecha musume plastic model kit series '30 MINUTES SISTERS', launched by BANDAI SPIRITS Hobby Division in Japan, unveiled several new products slated for release from April to June 2024, as well as new items currently under development, during the "4th 30 MINUTES LABEL New Product Announcement Event" held last night.
'30 MINUTES SISTERS' is an original mecha musume plastic model kit series derived from '30 MINUTES MISSIONS', featuring talented designers such as Fumikane Shimada, Takayuki Yanase, and Kanetake Ebikawa. The series introduces beautiful girl characters equipped with uniquely designed armaments. Continuing the characteristics of the 30MM series, in addition to the character body, a wide variety of expression parts sets, hair parts sets, body parts sets, and armament parts sets will also be released. All parts in the series utilize a standardized 3mm peg connection, allowing players to freely interchange parts without the need for modification.
Collaboration products between 30MS and "THE IDOLM@STER SHINY COLORS" are continuously under development, with the second character product, "Oosaki Amana", scheduled for release in April 2024. This item features a posable body that recreates the original idol costume designed by Fumikane Shimada, and includes three different pre-printed face parts for interchangeability.
Furthermore, the "30MS Hair Style & Face Parts Set (Oosaki Tenka/Kuwayama Chiyuki)" will also be released simultaneously in April 2024. This product includes two pre-printed face parts and hair parts for both Oosaki Tenka and Kuwayama Chiyuki. By combining these with separately sold kits such as "30MS Oosaki Amana", "30MS Body Parts Beyond The Blue Sky1[Color A]", and "30MS Body Parts Beyond The Blue Sky2[Color A]", you can recreate the three-member unit ALSTROEMERIA!
The aforementioned "30MS Body Parts Beyond The Blue Sky2[Color A]" is also scheduled for release in April 2024. This kit includes a posable body wearing the original idol costume "Beyond The Blue Sky" designed by Fumikane Shimada, and comes with three chest sizes and two thigh lengths for interchangeability. The difference from the previously released Version 1 lies in the thigh length and other body shape variations, corresponding to taller idol characters. The intricate decorations around the chest are recreated using multi-color molding and precise segmentation.
The "30MS Body Parts Beyond The Blue Sky1[Color B]", featuring a different skin tone, is scheduled for release in June 2024. The product content is essentially the same as the previously released "30MS Body Parts Beyond The Blue Sky1[Color A]", allowing for the interchangeability of 3 chest sizes and thigh parts to recreate 140mm and 145mm heights. The difference is that the skin tone parts adopt the more reddish 30MS Color B.
For original characters, "30MS SIS-Dc88w Eliene=Erierika (Elegant Style)" is scheduled for release in June 2024. This new sister features armor formed by various wings and comes with three pre-printed face parts for interchangeability. The wings on her back not only possess multi-axis movable joints but can also be detached and used as a large bow.
