The first release in The Legend of Beauty and the Beast series.
Motoko Kusanagi & Tachikoma, 1/4 scale statue as envisioned by Entei Ryu.
Prime 1 Studio’s collaboration format, The Legend of Beauty and the Beast — created with diverse leading artists — introduces Motoko Kusanagi & Tachikoma from "GHOST IN THE SHELL STAND ALONE COMPLEX".
Artist Entei Ryu, active in game and film concept art, unveiled this piece in 2024 and later drew attention with its garage kit release. Prime 1 Studio has translated her vision into a 1/4 scale statue. Preserving the distinctive composition in which the organic and the mechanical merge into one, we have leveraged the approx. 53 cm size to craft every element with precision.
A lifelike gleam in the eyes. Sweeping cybernetic cables coursing through the prosthetic body. A rifle and Tachikoma that evoke a convincing metallic presence. In keeping with the artist’s style, we have added detail to enrich the interplay of organic and inorganic elements, further increasing the overall level of detail. The restrained sepia palette has been meticulously tuned to avoid monotony, achieving a color scheme that highlights the sculpt much like the original illustration. The custom base has also been created to complement the artist’s aesthetic.
This Bonus Version is limited to 350 pieces worldwide and includes an A3 art print based on the concept art. In addition, 20 randomly selected customers who purchase either this product (LBBGITS-01S) or the Character Color (LBBGITS-02S) will receive the print autographed by Entei Ryu. A beautifully produced print, it conveys the work’s intent and technique and stands as an art piece in its own right.
Reimagined by Entei Ryu and elevated to 1/4 scale by Prime 1 Studio, Motoko Kusanagi & Tachikoma arrives as a new expression in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the anime’s production. Experience this statement piece for yourself.
