A Proper action figure for Athrun Zala is something that Athrun fanboys like myself have been looking forward to for a long time and Bandai have answered the wish, but in a rather unpleasant way. Released as P-Bandai stuff yet again along with the Infinite Justice Spec-2, Athrun Zala is getting his SHF treatment in his Gundam SEED Freedom Movie getup! Scheduled for December 2024 release SHF Athrun will be sold for 9000 Yen.
In terms of accessorires and Sculpt, SHF Athrun Zala does actually satisfy the needs from Gundam SEED fanboys pretty well with decent amount of accessories. But the biggest offender is that Overseas fans will likely have to fork out at least 40000 Yen if they want the complete set of SHF Athrun along with Diecast 14 Cm Infinite Justice Gundam action figure. For that amount of money, a Metal Build would have been better value for money. I would have gotten both of these MRS and SHF Athrun if they are regular release but given it is a P-Bandai, I am not too eager to put up with Bandai's nonsense. Might as well wait Bandai regain their sanity first and make the regular version of SHF Athrun or Regular release of Infinite Justice Spec-2 Metal Build, or even wait for some 3rd Party make more reasonably priced collectible for Athrun Zala.
