Fans of mecha can treat themselves to a special model kit of the popular \u201cWhite Griffon\u201d from the Patlabor series when they pre-order the limited edition physical copy of Mobile Police Patlabor: The Case Files<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>for the PS5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"White<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Special Edition can only be purchased through the official Good Smile Company Online Shop<\/a> and is available for preorder. Fans are encouraged to reserve their copy early, as the pre-orders may close before launch due to limited availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The model kit is a 1\/60 scale and stands approximately 5.1 inches. It can be arranged in a variety of poses as each joint is movable, and includes the iconic wings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Patlabor\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Patlabor series follows the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department as they investigate and battle other mechs, which are named Labors. The name Patlabor is a portmanteau of \u201cpatrol\u201d and \u201clabor,\u201d referencing the special division created to respond to Labor-related crime, the Special Vehicles Section 2 Patrol Labor Unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mobile Police Patlabor: The Case Files<\/em>, the latest game adaptation, is set for release for PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam<\/a>) in Summer 2026.
