KT Project KT-012 Takeya Style Jizai Okimono "Hebikera" Painted

[Machine Translation] Winged insects that gracefully dance in the sky of the Sea of Decomposition, wiggling their huge bodies. It has dragonfly-like wings similar to those of a centipede, sharp fangs, and three orange eyes. It also has a projection on the tip of its tail, which Nausicaa's Maeve crashes into in the film. The "Hebeikera" has been redesigned and sculpted as an action figure by sculptor Takayuki Takeya without compromising its carnivorous and belligerent image. The "coloring" was done in the image of the colors that appear in the work. The figure also has the appeal of a movable figure, with 45 points of articulation throughout the body that work in conjunction with the movable joints inside the frame. The figure's body has 45 points of articulation, allowing the user to recreate the graceful, twisting, airborne appearance of the snake in the film. The fangs on the head and lower jaw can be opened and closed, and each of the wings can be moved freely, allowing the movements of the figure to be recreated exactly as they were in the film.

巨体をくねらせながら腐海の空を優雅に舞う翅蟲(ハムシ)日本を代表するアニメスタジオ、スタジオジブリの代表作の1つである『風の谷のナウシカ』に登場する蛇螻蛄(ヘビケラ)は「翅蟲(ハムシ)」と呼ばれる空を飛ぶ蟲の一種。百足に似た蜻蛉のような羽を生やし、鋭い牙とオレンジ色に光る三つの目を持つ。また、尻尾の先端部分には突起があり、劇中ではナウシカが操縦するメーヴェがこれに衝突し、墜落している。この「ヘビケラ」を、肉食で好戦的というイメージを損なわずに、造形作家・竹谷隆之の手によって生物的にリデザインされ、アクションフィギュアとして立体化。『着彩』仕様は作中に登場するカラーをイメージして仕上げられました。また可動式フィギュアとしての魅力も存分に兼ね備え、フレームとして内部に仕込まれた可動ジョイントと連動し、体の各節が全身45箇所が可動。 劇中のヘビケラのように体をくねらせて優雅に空中を舞う姿を再現することができます。頭部の牙と下アゴは大きく開閉し、またそれぞれの羽も自由に動かすことができるため、劇中の動きをそのままに表現可能です。[原型製作] 福元徳宝[造形総指揮] 竹谷隆之・山口隆
