Out of the blue, Kotobukiya is back with Legend of the Galactic Heroes and this time it’s something for fans of the classic OVA series rather than Die Neue These. Just right after the Die Neue These version of the flagship Hyperion, Kotobukiya is now releasing the OVA version of Hyperion back to back.Scheduled for a June 2026 release, the 1/3000-scale OVA Hyperion model kit will retail for 8,800 yen.
Just like its Die Neue These counterpart, the kit measures over 30 cm in length, making it an impressively sized display piece.One can’t help but wonder why Kotobukiya chose 2026 for the OVA version’s release, as the timing would have been perfect years ago alongside their Yang Wen-li PVC figure. That said, this release is still a major win for LOGH fans who remain loyal to the OVA, which many consider the definitive adaptation of this space opera.
If this release is any indication, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Brünhild follow as an OVA-version model kit. After all, an eternal rivalry feels incomplete without both sides represented.
