The kit is priced at 4,950 yen including tax, with the second batch scheduled to ship in March 2027. It includes MVS x2, VARIS, Blaze Luminous, and Slash Harken deployment parts, plus a plamo original gimmick that lets it combine with the separately sold Zi-Artemis.","whyItMatters":"A second preorder round for a 4,950 yen anniversary kit is Bandai reading demand for Code Geass model kits beyond the first allocation, and pairing the Lancelot with a plamo original combination gimmick ties the release to the Zi-Artemis buyers already committed.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe HG 1/35 Lancelot carries new modeling rather than a reuse of an older tooling, with part separation and molded colors built for the proportions of the prototype Knightmare Frame. Articulation is pitched at anime-style posing, and the weapon set covers MVS x2, VARIS, Blaze Luminous, and Slash Harken deployment parts. The combination gimmick runs to the Zi-Artemis, sold separately.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second preorder batch ships in March 2027.

The plamo original gimmick that combines it with Zi-Artemis also assumes buyers pick up a kit sold separately, so the 4,950 yen price is the entry point, not the full cost.","newsletterBlurb":"Premium Bandai is running a second preorder round for the HG 1/35 Lancelot, tied to the Code Geass 20th anniversary.
