I am glad that there is a series like Shining Wind. If it weren't for that I would have never known of the art of Tony Taka. Not only is his art gorgeous, it makes for some very beautiful figures. And thanks to Kotobukiya we have seen A LOT of his works reproduced into figure form.
Kotobukiya just released a photo of their latest prototype, Elwyn from Shining Wind based off a piece of art by Tony as usual. It's a rather revealing figure but that hasn't stopped Kotobukiya before. It also looks like this Elwyn is getting the 1/6 scale treatment when you look at the comparison shot in the gallery. I have to wonder how detailed Kotobukiya will get with this figure. I also have a strong feeling we'll be seeing a repaint.
No other details are available at the moment for release dates or pricing so we'll just have to wait. Plus, we already know the next piece of information will be a color prototype.
