Bandai Namco announced two Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Maximatic figures, with a Sternritter Toshiro Hitsugaya one out now and Blood Chains Ichigo Kurosaki one arriving in February 2027. Both appear first as prize figures in Japan before showing up everywhere. No pre-orders are open for them on the Banpresto Amazon store like there are for other Bleach Maximatic ones.

Both of these forms of the characters stem from the Quincy Blood War arc depicted in the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War anime adaptation. The Sternritter Toshiro Hitsugaya Maximatic figure is out now in Japan and shows him in the uniform and appearance that came up after a certain battle in that part of the series. He has his Zanpakuto Hyorinmaru in front of him and is in the white and black uniform. That stands at over eight and a half inches tall (22cm).

Here’s how that figure looks: 

As for the Blood Chains Ichigo Kurosaki Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War figure, there’s no exact release window for it beyond “February 2027.” In it, he’s in the new form that Tite Kubo created specifically for the new anime adaptation. It shows not only his transformation, but the way Zangetsu’s form changes.

Bandai Namco shared the first two photos for that prototype.

The Bleach Maximatic Sternritter Toshiro Hitsugaya is available in Japan now and will be followed by the Blood Chains Ichigo Kurosaki one in February 2027. Viz Media handles the Bleach manga outside Japan, and the anime can be found on Disney+ and Hulu.
