Sideshow and Acro present the Windom Vinyl Collectible. KRS×TAKEYA' - Mr. Takayuki Takeya joins ACRO's KRS (Kaiju Remix Series)!
A new series that commercializes Mr. Takeya's modeling designs. The first release is the capsule monster 'Windom'.
Mr. Takeya himself is a fan of 'Windom', and his rich imagination has been used to arrange it with an exquisite balance between the severity of the weapon and the cuteness of the capsule monster. The model was created by Mr.
Keiki Fujimoto. The digitally created surface structure is a sexy finish from any angle. ACRO's unique U-VINYL technology (baked mold) is used to create a soft vinyl mold.
The unique shape of Windom is faithfully reproduced down to the smallest detail. Comment from Mr. Takayuki Takeya: 'I have been involved in the KAIJU REMIX series, succeeding my dear friend Yasushi Nirasawa.
I was born in the same year as him (1963), and like many others, my childhood was heavily influenced by the era of epoch-making creations such as special effects and manga. The opening of Ultraman left a particularly strong impression on me (it started with Ultra Q), and the first thing I wrote in my life was the word 'Ultraman'. Of course, I also became fascinated with Ultra Seven, and even after a long time, I am still fascinated by the designs of the capsule monsters such as Windom and Micras, Eleking, King Joe, and many others.
I feel a sense of responsibility to take over from Yasushi Nirasawa, but I think it's most important to enjoy it to the fullest! I'd be happy if people of all ages could enjoy the arrangements I made with respect for the original! I designed Windom with an arrangement concept that emphasizes that it is a support weapon for Ultra Seven.
However, I also wanted to preserve his lovable mood, and the arrangement was based on the hidden theme of 'It would be great to have a partner like this.' The modeling was done by Keiki Fujimoto, who created it 100% digitally. I am extremely grateful that he was able to improve my rough arrangement to a wonderful level of completion! Recently, I have been enjoying imagining this guy moving in CG in my mind, toying with the Guts Alien people.' Comment from Keiki Fujimoto: 'ACRO's KAIJUREMIX recreates monsters with universal designs with loving arrangements.
