Tekkaman Blade Orange Cat Industry Blaster Tekkaman Blade

 Tekkaman Blade is one of those great 90s Mecha series that had been relatively left in the dust by Japan for quite some time since we were getting Figma and Armor Plus as the last products. It was not until few years ago Sentinel decided to pick up the series to join Riobot Lineup. But it was the major player Orange Cat Industry that changed the playing board as they are releasing some quality Model Kit products for Tekkaman Blade series. What started from the regular Tekkaman Blade in 2022 now Orange Cat is ready to release the Tekkaman Blade in his Blaster Mode. Scheduled for dispatch from Q1, Orange Cat Tekkaman Blade Blaster comes in 2 variants, Regular and LED which will cost 198 & 288 RMB respectively.

In 90s Bandai did release some 1000 Yen Tekkaman Blade model kit which will require some work to look good and Orange Cat do make some much needed update required for Tekkaman Model Kit Lineup standing 22 cm tall which are as big as Gundam Master Grades. The LED Parts will definitely give the Voltekka effect of Blaster Tekkaman to full justice given it is easily the best part of Tekkaman Blade series, just look at Tatsunoko vs Capcom. Personally, I still wonder why Chinese manufacturer did decided to pick up Tekkaman Blade series out of the blue. Perhaps it has something to do with Iron Saga collab that expose the series to Chinese Market but it is still not pivotal enough. It would be quite something if Orange Cat decided to follow up this particular series by making Pegas Model kit to accompany Tekkaman Blade.
