Tamashii Nations Event 2013 - Saint Cloth Myth

 

The Saint Cloth Myth had a pretty good presence at the Tamashii Nations Event 2013!

 

First up, we have the SCM Sagittarius Seiya from Saint Seiya Omega.  

Also from Omega, we have everybody's favorite Saint-turned-doctor-turned-Saint Andromeda Shun. 

Bandai also took this opportunity to once again show off the SCM Athena God Cloth.

 

And the 10th anniversay edition Phoenix Ikki God Cloth. 

Going back to Omega, we have Pegasus Kouga.  

Also from Saint Seiya Omega, we have Orion Eden. All of the Omega characters are sporing their Cloths from the most recent season of the show.

Bandai also displayed one of the last EX Gold Saints to be released, Taurus Aldebaran.

One of the big reveals was the EX Wyvern Rhadamantys.Hopefully, this means we will be seeing the Three Judges of Hades in the EX line.

A big reveal for Saint Cloth Myth fans and fans of the Saint Seiya series, was the display of the Saint Cloth Myth Sagittarius and Pegasus from the long-delayed CGI Saint Seiya movie. This confirms not only the other direction that the Saint Cloth Myth line is headed in, but also that the CGI movie is actually happening.

Finally, for the diehards that collect the color variants in the line, Bandai had a display of Aries, Scorpio and Leo performing the Athena Exclamation, while sporting the manga colors.

I knew the line would

I knew the line would continue last year, when an EX Saga Surplice was mentioned. Expect the whole of the main line to be redone -_- Surprised they didn't show EX Hyoga and Aquarius. Oh, Sagittarius and Pegasus from the CGI movie are there too, along with OCE Scorpio and Aries.

So, they are doing Omega for the main line. Guess I am won't be buying anything new from the main line after Athena is released. Unless we get a really good Mars figure. With EX versions of more old toys, the CGI figures, and stuff from Omega in the future....I guess for the next year or so I will be buying old stuff off eBay.

I thought the Surplice Saga

I thought the Surplice Saga was just going to be an exclusive, so I did not figure that is where they were going with the line. But it makes sense for them to release at least Saga, Shura and Camus in their surplices. Since I am sure people will pick them up to complete the full EX Athena Exclamation set up.

I am with you on Omega. There is now way I am giving Bandai/Toei money for anything related to that mess of a show they call Omega.

What are you hunting down on Ebay?

Some old Gold Saints, but

Some old Gold Saints, but only if I can get the Appendixes cheap. I've been avoiding the EX line because they will just look out of place with my stuff, which is all the main, standard line. My goal would really be to have Athena displayed with the five Bronze Boys in their proper Gold Cloths. But shit, I only have a Dragon Shiryu and the Libra Cloth. And using the Bronze heads that came with Libra, Leo, Virgo, Aquarius and Sagittarius are not an option. They are all so ugly. But if I display the GS as their standard characters, I would also need the Appendix for each figure, so I need not see the ugliness of their standard heads. But shit, have you seen prices for the Leo and Aquarius Appendixes? They don't include Ikki and Hyoga heads either...

Well the Appendixes are

Well the Appendixes are cheaper than they were a couple of years back. The EX line actually helped bring down the prices on the Appendixes. I remember the Leo going tor $150 and now it is about half that. If you keep your eyes open, you can probably get a good deal on them. I picked up a second set of the Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius on Ebay for about $50 a piece. While that is still double the original retail price, it is the best price I have seen on them.
