Bandai will collaborate with Cover to release cosplay merchandise inspired by Hoshimachi Suisei and Murasaki Shion from Hololive. Both items cost 7,920 JPY ($53.70). [Thanks, Hobby Watch!]
Both items will be available for pre-order from March 12, 2024, until May 6, 2024. Then, they’ll ship out in September 2024. Suisei’s cosplay item is the microphone that she uses during live concerts. Meanwhile, Shion’s magical wand is one that she used during the Hololive Production Countdown Live 2022 2023.
The cosplay items not only are an accurate recreation of the microphone and the wand, but they also come with multiple voice lines from the livers. They recorded the voice lines exclusively for this piece of merchandise, and each one contains twenty voice lines each. Suisei’s microphone also contains the full version of her song “Stellar Stellar,” and the microphone will shimmer like a star when you play the song or voice lines. Shion’s want doesn’t light up, but you can hear her song, “Mage of Violet,” from it.
