Having already seen 2 releases since its comeback in October last year, the resurrection of Nakajima’s classic Astro-Mu 5 line continues this month with the arrival of yet another goodie/baddie combo… Jupirosu [Jupiter] and Satan Ace Kenzan [Saturn]! Near-identical to the original 10″ tall soft vinyl figures, the pair have been produced by Medicom in a classic trans yellow vinyl complete with authentic, vintage-style sprays and hand brushed detailing overseen by The Galaxy People. Packed with all the design features you’d expect from a fully-fledged Astro-Mu 5 remake, personal highlights for us include glitter pipe cleaner filled limbs, removable gloves and boots, back/chest button controlled “yes/no” head articulation, plus mountable pulleys for string aided flight. Touching down in the Medicom Toy store via open preorder starting Sunday, April 24th, Jupirosu and Satan Ace Kenzan will set you back just 15,984yen ($133) each plus shipping…
