Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Today I’m going to be taking to be taking a look at the King of Heroes,
Nendoroid Gilgamesh!
| From the popular PC game ‘Fate/stay night’ comes a Nendoroid of the ‘King of Heroes’ dressed in his golden armor, Gilgamesh! He comes with both his standard sneering expression, as well as a shouting expression.
Additionally, special parts that allow you to display him with the ‘Gate of Babylon’ behind him are included, and the most powerful Noble Phantasm contained within the gate, Ea, the Sword of Rupture is also included for him to wield, allowing fans to display him in all sorts of epic poses from the series! |
Ooooohhh!!! (*´▽｀*)
Gilgamesh has finally come to take over my desk!!
The very first male Nendoroid from Fate is ready to be officially announced soon!
The most powerful of his Noble Phantasms, ‘Ea, the Sword of Rupture’ is of course included for him to wield!
The attention to detail on the patterns of the sword are amazing! (ﾟＡﾟ;)
Another very special thing about Gilgamesh is of course his golden armor, which has a heavy and metallic look to it… even as a cute Nendoroid
(・∀・) “We worked really hard on the coloring of the armor!”
We’re joined today by the figure’s head planner, Yassan!
(・∀・) “Even though he has golden armor, it’s not so much a ‘sparkly’ gold, but more of a powerful gold. We wanted to ensure that the armor still felt like armor… and wasn’t just gold as a fashion statement.”
Looking close you can also tell that it’s not just the color that’s amazing… the patterns all over the armor are super detailed too! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ
(・∀・) “Indeed! You already mentioned above how detailed Ea was, and the armor is no exception. Each and every twist, turn and color change of his armor has been faithfully sculpted! Even if you’re looking from the back… take a look!”
Ooh! The markings and layers are all so lovely! He’s really a work of art!
(・∀・) “But there is still more to look forward to!”
I-Is this what I think it is?! ( ﾟдﾟ )!
(・∀・) “The Gate of Babylon!”
It’s amazing! Even in Nendoroid size the impact is astounding!
(・∀・) “His expressions include the grinning expression you saw above, as well as this angrier, shouting expression which makes the Gate look even more imposing!”
But to truly recreate the epic scene from the series… we need to have the Noble Phantasms coming out from the gate!!
Ta-da!!
Ooooohhh!!! (*´▽｀*) (for the second time in one blog!)
(・∀・) “Each and everyone of the weapons has been sculpted differently!”
They’re all different types of weapons as well!
It’s like a cute miniature weapon collection set! ♪
(・∀・) “Each of these weapons also be held just like Ea, so you have a huge variety of posing options!”
Options like this make me so happy! (*´Д`）
(・∀・) “By the way, this is how the Gate of Babylon looks from the back!”
Ah, so each of the weapons are simply pushed through the gate!
(・∀・) “Well, this is still the prototype, so things may still change… but that is the idea we are going for!”
The grinning face captures Gilgamesh’s confidence beautifully, but I really love the shouting face too – it’s the perfect combination of anger and pride in a single expression! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)
(・∀・) “As there are a large number of weapons included we decided to only give him two expressions, but I do think they both capture his personality nicely!”
Be sure to grab the cute little King of Heroes for yourself…! ♪
