Snackgirls editor note
Red: “This one was easy to explain as a mecha entry point because the price, preorder deadline, release month, and dedicated sword setup are all confirmed on a single official page.”
AIKO: “The official product page confirms 9,500 yen, a July 29 preorder deadline, a planned December 2026 release, a non-scale 180 mm size, and a limit of three per person, so the hard gates were clean.”
Kirari: “Even from the photos, the red machine silhouette is extremely clear. That said, since a separate domestic retailer notice is not visible yet, it is more practical to check import availability first.”
Testa-Rossa from The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel has opened for preorder as part of Good Smile Company’s MODEROID line. The reason this candidate was selected for the evening lane is that game IP familiarity, depth of official imagery, and clear price, preorder period, and basic weapon information all line up at once, making it easy even for readers who do not know much about mecha plastic models to quickly understand “what type of kit this is.”
Why Testa-Rossa stood out as the evening pick
MODEROID is a relatively easy line to explain to readers who want to build and handle game or anime mecha as assembly kits. The official page for this item also gathers elements such as articulated joints, interchangeable hands, a dedicated sword, and clear jewel parts in one place, so beginners can quickly understand what to expect.
Testa-Rossa has a strong visual pull among the Divine Knights from Trails of Cold Steel, thanks to its clear red silhouette and jewel-like details. Since the same-day lunch slot had already covered one bishoujo plastic model, the evening slot was better suited to a candidate that could separate the tone through a game IP mecha item.
What has been confirmed about price, preorder period, and specifications
According to the Good Smile Company official shop, the price is 9,500 yen, the preorder period runs until July 29, 2026, and the planned release is December 2026. The specifications list it as a non-scale assembly kit measuring about 180 mm to the top of the head.
The listing also includes notes such as a limit of three per person and availability may vary by country or region. In other words, this is the type of item where the actual preorder flow and purchase conditions can be explained alongside the reveal itself.
What domestic readers should check now
Within the scope checked for this article, a formal domestic distribution schedule or local price was not separately visible. For domestic readers, it is therefore better to first separate the choice between checking whether the official shop can be used for direct import and waiting a little longer for partner shop or domestic retailer notices.
The important point is not resale pricing, but whether this level of silhouette, sword action, and jewel-part setup at 9,500 yen fits your taste. If you like the Trails of Cold Steel IP but prefer assembly kits over completed figures, it is more accurate to read this Testa-Rossa as a release aimed at both display-ready mecha visuals and the fun of building it yourself.

As of 2026-06-17 KST, the Good Smile Company official product page confirmed the 9,500 yen price, preorder period through July 29, 2026, planned December 2026 release, non-scale assembly kit specifications, approximate 180 mm height to the top of the head, interchangeable hands, dedicated sword, clear jewel parts, and some pre-painted parts. On the same day, HOBBY Watch’s article was used to cross-check the point that this is the first MODEROID plastic model release of the item and the stack of published images. Because the official shop notes that availability may differ by country or region, domestic readers should realistically check both direct import availability and partner shop stocking notices.
