S.H. Figuarts Body Chan and Body Kun World Tour Exclusives First Look

under General Toy News, Random Photo Shoot

Today we are taking a look at the last of the Tamashii Nations / Bluefin Brands World Tour exclusives, the S.H. Figuarts Body Chan (female), Body Kun (male) “blank” figures, and the World Tour exclusive stand.   The figures are World Tour exclusive decos of previously released figures.  They are commonly referred to as “blanks”, as they feature no character likenesses or clothing.  They are just core S.H. Figuarts bodies in a single color.  These exclusive versions feature artwork and logos related to the World Tour event in a translucent gray plastic.  Read on to check out over 90 pics of all three in action!

Tamashii Nations 10th Anniversary World Tour New York City

Tamashii’s New York City World Tour event will be held at Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall in Manhattan on April 29-30, 2017. The event is free to attend and will be open from 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 29 and 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 30. A total of 9 commemorative products will make their world debut for sale, exclusively, on-site.

The event will center around new products from the Dragon Ball series (the latest incarnation of which, Dragon Ball Super, is now airing in the U.S.), and the Meisho Movie / Manga Realization action figure series of popular Star Wars and Marvel Universe characters re-envisioned in Japanese samurai style. In addition, popular anime characters from Naruto and Sailor Moon, plus characters already well known to fans from the WWE franchise and Godzilla series, will also be on display.

Other interactive opportunities are planned as well, such as a “touch and try” corner allowing fans to interact with the actual products and a photo spot for taking fun pictures.

    I know it's not really in your guys' regular wheelhouse, but I always appreciate the Gundam news. With Gundam Guy's blog dead, and others long gone, it's hard to find a good news outlet.

    That Real Type Zaku is awesome.

    Yeah, we backed off Gundam news a while back. Only one of us was really into it, he's not really active anymore, and it was hard to keep up. Plus, we've generally be refining what we cover.

    This guy however is pretty cool. Super poseable, fun to mess around with.

    Oh yeah, Robot Spirits is the real deal for mech figures. It's kind of a shame that Tamashii has slowed down so much on the line, because Iron Blooded Orphans has introduced some really, really cool designs. Thanks for the pics!

    How much will he cost? He looks gorgeous I might preorder something like that but it sounds like it's a buy only at convention exclusive, right?

    Also is there a way to get notifications of posts replys here? Like TFW does

    Oh my god damn that Mazinger Z is glorious. I feel like you'd have to wear gloves or something just to handle it because there's no way it's not a fingerprint magnet.

    Yes, he is a con exclusive. No word on whether they will be available online from them afterwards, but I don't think so. I think the goal is to bring them to multiple cities throughout the year at different events.

    As for post notifications - you can subscribe to individual threads one by one at the top of any thread, or edit your settings for the whole site here under "Default Thread Subscription Mode"

    TFW is on newer software so it's handled a bit different.

    Yes, I had to microfiber him between every shot and it still wasn't fingerprint free.

    Of note, this was a review sample so he had some imperfections. Mass release won't be like that.

    Whatever happened to Gundam Guy? Looks like he just quit.

    Anyway, sign me up as another one that would appreciate to see more Gundam updates here. I know you guys can't cover it all, but I also appreciate the special ones that you cover, and the photography, of course!

    I am fairly certain the Body-chan and Body-kun figures were designed largely as artists models, and so being plain doesn't detriment them for their intended purpose. However, this new deco does look cool.

    And making customs. So the neutral "primer" grey make sense.
