Bandai Spirits has revealed via its Tamashii Nations website that it will release a Proplica sword of the Tensa Zangetsu from Bleach for fun or cosplay purchases. The company will sell official replicas of Ichigo Kurosaki’s signature sword worldwide in early 2025 at 19,800 yen (~$136.35).
The product will be a life-size replica of the sword, so it will also be suitable for completing a cosplay set of Ichigo Kurosaki. However, this item will also have many audio gimmicks. Besides the sword-swinging sound effects, it will contain over 140 voice lines. In addition, the replica sword can also play short versions of the Bleach theme songs “ALONES” and “Number One.”
Bandai Spirits has also uploaded a promotion trailer featuring the Tensa Zangetsu Bleach Proplica and someone in Ichigo cosplay on its YouTube channel:
Even though the original manga series had concluded in 2016, the Bleach franchise is still actively getting new content following the anime adaptation of the Thousand-Year Blood War arc that launched in 2022. The third part of the above adaptation will start airing in October 2024. New games themed after the arc, such as Rebirth of Souls for consoles and Soul Puzzle for mobile devices, will also appear worldwide.
The Proplica of Ichigo Kurosaki’s sword Tensa Zangetsu from Bleach will be available worldwide in January 2025. Bandai Spirits will start accepting pre-orders for the product on September 3, 2024.
