Ghost n’ Goblins Arthur Update – Photos and Details

under Video Game Toy News

New photos and details have been released for two upcoming Vulcanlog Makaimura (aka Ghosts ‘n Goblins) Arthur figure by Union Creative. We’ve been reporting on this figure for a while, though we hadn’t see an update since November. The Game Classics Vol.1 Ghosts ‘n Goblins Arthur will be available in two versions. There will be a standard release in his silver armor, and an an exclusive limited version in his Ghouls and Ghosts style gold armor, which will be available at Ebten.jp.

Arthur stand just over 4.7″ tall and is fully articulated. Both Arthur figures will include removable armor, allowing you to display the figure as he starts the game, as well as after he takes damage. The figure will include interchangeable faces, beards, hair and hands. The standard Arthur will include a lance, a knife, and a torch and a removable horn for the helmet. The exclusive version will include all of these, minus the horn attachments as the armor is different. The gold armor version will also include a removable cape.

The Game Classics Vol.1 Ghosts ‘n Goblins Arthur figures are each priced at 6,980 Yen (about $62 USD). They are scheduled for release in September. You can see photos of both version after the jump.

    Holy crap, this is awesome. I'd buy an entire line based on this game.

    They fix the eyes on the armored Arthur and he's pretty much perfect.

    This guy sells, maybe they could do Golden Armor Arthur and Red Arremer.

    Things I never thought I'd see for $9 Million, Alex.

    I saw that and had to rub my eyes. Two majorly cool licenses I never thought I'd see figures for.

    Now that it's not the first thing in the morning, and I'm not on mobile, the figure looks even cooler. Man, hoping that the pricing will be in my range, because I'd go crazy on a JSR line. They did an amazing job capturing the aesthetic of the game for Beat there.

    I used to absolutely love jet set radio on my SEGA dreamcast. Such a shame this console died out.

    Childhood was complete with that game no doubt even used it in one of their videos!

    Oh dang. I might actually be able to make my Marvel vs Capcom display. No. Yes. My wallet. Is it just me, or do his eyes look articulated?

    So glad they changed the eyes up on Arthur, that was my only gripe with the original prototype.

    I'm looking forward to the JSR line a bit more than I had realized. I recently played through it again on the Vita, such a great game!

    I hope we get more than just the main character, but I will take what I can get since I missed the original run from Joyride/Gamepro. To be honest I missed all the figures from that time, SSX, Crash Bandicoot (Resaurus), Crazy Taxi.

    Those were all great action figures that for whatever reason I never picked up, and now most of those are in that untouchable price range...

    I always wanted to play Ghosts n Goblins as a kid but no body ever had a copy and I used to hear about it all the time. Someone was always going over to someone else house to play it and I never got to. I did play the PSP version and it was awesome and fun and kinda hard

    They should send one of these, free of charge, to anyone who has actually beaten this game twice in a row. Yes, I'm still salty about that shit. What a bunch of scumbags.

    Anyways, since it's Revoltech behind it and they make good figures for acceptable prices I'm considering getting one. Always loved playing Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts on SNES.

    Only way I ever got completely through Ghost n Goblins NES was emulators with save states.

    I don't blame you; these games are just too unfair sometimes. No one cared about balance back then; unfair difficulty was either more coins in your arcade machine or additional hours you could sell as "compelling" gameplay.

    I still love these kinds of games though. I never really played the NES version since I grew up with a SNES but once I grab the NES Mini I’m beating this game.

    To be honest, I don't know if I have ever played the original game. I might have played the SNES one.

    Those look far better than the protos. I can't wait to see the Jet Set follow-ups.

    Omg I had forgotten about this. Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy. I'm basically getting a Marvel vs Capcom wave this year.

  25. OriginalFire has no avatar! OriginalFire says

    Played the PSP version, because I never played the Nintendo one, even though I was of age.
