INFORMATION
BANDAI SPIRITS' TAMASHII NATIONS, the collectible toy division of Japan, has announced a new product from their 'SHFiguarts' series—which sculpts tokusatsu heroes from their bones, giving them their original cool looks and natural articulation— the "Red AGITO with an Icon Painting," scheduled for release in April 2026. This product is a limited edition item from the 'True AGITO Exhibition' pre-sale ticket set.
Aired in 2001, *Kamen Rider Agito* continues the world of its predecessor, *Kuuga*, and incorporates strong religious themes. One day, an ancient relic washes ashore on Yonaguni Island in Okinawa, and a ferry suffers an unexplained shipwreck, triggering a series of "unidentified life forms (UNKNOW) serial murders." The protagonist, Shoichi Tsugami, who has lost his memory , possesses the power of light to transform into "Kamen Rider Agito." When UNKNOWs with dark powers appear, he senses them and goes to fight them. However, the victims are all survivors of the shipwreck and their blood relatives, thus beginning a great battle between the creator and evolved humans.
The "Red AGITO from the Icon Painting" that was recently released as merchandise is a character who only appeared briefly in the "Icon Painting" shown in the opening sequence of the series. He didn't actually appear in the show or have any detailed character design, but his AGITO-like appearance combined with his color scheme, which resembles Kuuga's, sparked much speculation and imagination among viewers. Now, with the official release of 'SHFiguarts (True Bone Carving Method)', the complete design of this mysterious character has finally been confirmed.
It uses the same parts design as the previous "SHFiguarts (True Bone Sculpture Method) Kamen Rider Agito" product, and reproduces the characteristic red and gold armor with a new color scheme. It has body proportions similar to Agito's costume in the show, and combines excellent articulation design, various hand shapes, and head parts for finishing moves, allowing for flexible poses such as transformation poses, pre-attack poses, and Rider kicks. In addition, a display stand representing the world of the series and a special box sleeve printed with "idol paintings" have been added.
