First up is Baoh. Man I had to do a double-take when I first saw him. First I instinctively thought RAOH (a forgivable mistake) then it hit me, "Oh... BAOH". I have an old VHS tape of him somewhere in the blackhole of the Gatack household (aka the basement).
Anyway he is a Winter Wonder Fest exclusive that goes for 17,640 YEN (165.35 USD) and will be released Feb. 2, 2008.
Next is something different. Not another RAH figure but two accessories. You get the Red and Yellow parts to recreate your fav Wingman scenes. Of course that means to fully enjoy the Wingman Medicom you need to have THREE Wingman 1/6. Ouch. The parts are a mail away offer and you guessed it, the coupon comes with the standard Wingman release.
One very interesting facet about the Wingman Medicom is that the production is being done under the watchful eye of creator Masakazu Katsura. If that name sounds familiar then you've probably seen his other, very famous work Video Girl Ai.
Only in Dream Warrior Wingman can you dream on becoming a super hero and actually be one. I really wouldn't mind seeing that series again. It's been awhile.
Yen is 17,640 (165.35 USD) and due out October of 2008.
Kamen Rider ZX (you know, the one from that movie where they all fought a giant robot to really bad disco. Don't remember? Good.) and he's a loaded up rider with extra hands and accessories. He goes for 17,640 YEN (165.35 USD) and is also due out October 2008.
Rounding out the update is the cult classic Ultra Q character, Kanegon. This is a sorta "gold" version where in the episode he eats money and glows/glitters a bit. He's also a winter Wonder Fest Exclusive. His yen is 13,440 (125.98 USD) and is due out Feb.24, 2008.
