The suggested retail price is 9,350 JPY, and it is scheduled for release in December 2024.
The "TOA Heavy Industries Synthetic Human" series, designed by Japanese manga artist "Tsutomu Nihei," is set to be produced by TOA Heavy Industries, a renowned fictional military-industrial corporation from works such as "BLAME!" and "Knights of Sidonia." Infused with advanced technological prowess and exquisite action figure engineering, it boasts a humanoid appearance yet exudes a cold, emotionless, and lifeless aura, showcasing a unique cyborg charm.
The "TOA Heavy Industries Synthetic Human Shishin Compatible Test Type 03" 1/12 scale action figure is a bionic test subject, corresponding to the large facility named "Shishin" in "BIOMEGA." Standing approximately 15 cm tall, its prototype was designed by Yuuki Nakamura, the exclusive sculptor for Sentinel. Combining an articulated skeleton with soft materials, it maintains both refined, intricate sculpting details and a flexible range of motion. The head features interchangeable faces; removing the mask reveals a skull-like design. Additionally, it is equipped with an articulated eyeball mechanism, allowing for a variety of vivid and eerie poses.
