BANDAI SPIRITS' TAMASHII NATIONS collectibles division has announced a new release in its ROBOT SPIRITS line of fully articulated robot action figures.
Based on the anime "Mobile Police Patlabor," the Griffon (Twin Unit Set).
TYPE-J9 Griffon is an experimental combat Labor developed in utmost secrecy at Schaft Enterprises Japan's (SEJ) Tsuchiura Research Institute with the goal of creating the ultimate Labor. Its jet-black body and massive twin head crests give the machine an unmistakable silhouette. Developed without regard for cost, the Griffon incorporates cutting-edge technology that gives it superior power and mobility compared to standard machines such as the Ingram. Its backpack can also be swapped between the Flight Unit for short bursts of flight and the Aqua Unit for underwater operations. The proprietary high-efficiency ASURA operating system provides remarkably fluid, almost lifelike movement.
Based on the previously released standard version, the ROBOT SPIRITS Griffon (Twin Unit Set) returns with an all-new Aqua Unit sculpt. The main figure faithfully captures the sharp, commanding head design and sleek, rounded armor lines created by mechanical designer Yutaka Izubuchi. Sculpted folds around the enclosed joints recreate the flexible material covering them, while the armor features an almost mirror-like high-gloss finish. Internal mechanical details, including the hydraulic rods around the neck, receive metallic silver paint applications.
The set includes both the Flight Unit and Aqua Unit as interchangeable equipment. The Flight Unit's jet-black wings feature multi-axis articulation, with their bases capable of spreading nearly 90 degrees. The newly sculpted Aqua Unit recreates the intricate mechanical detailing and color applications of its twin underwater propulsion units. A dedicated display stand molded in translucent blue is also included. Rounding out the set is a damaged Ingram Unit 2 head part, allowing collectors to recreate the classic scene from the Harumi Incident in which the Griffon wrecked Unit 2.

This item is a Pre-Order! That means it is still in production and we do not yet know delivery costs. Delivery costs will not be shown in shopping cart or orders until the item is ready to ship.
Please note that by placing this order your deposit is non-refundable unless the manufacturer cancels production.
Most sixth scale figures come double-boxed automatically when purchased through Secret Compass! Most other dealers will slap a label right on the cardboard shipper and ship that way with no protection. Secret Compass recognizes the value in your collectible figure and we always double-box the cardboard shipper, which comes fresh out of a master case so it shows no sign of shipping before it ships to you.
Because this item still in production, we do not know the final weight or dimensions, or even how many boxes there will be. Therefore, we cannot give you an accurate quote for shipping. Actual shipping rates will be determined when the item is in stock, and will be reflected on your final invoice.

1/6 or 1/10 Scale Figures

Please note that size can vary greatly between different figures, and the above are only estimates based on figures we have seen in the past.
These estimates are by no means a guarantee of your final shipping cost - your final cost could be less or more. In the event that you aren't happy with the shipping costs, please contact us regarding other options, such as you providing your own shipping labels, a local pickup, or palletizing your order together with other figures and sending you freight on a pallet. We will always do our best to help you save money.
