So far all I got is this one photo at Fishing Show Osaka 2024 from @lureanglehama on IG about five minutes after they posted it, none of the deps employees or prostaff have mentioned it and I haven't heard any announcements either. If I remember correctly we saw the Gira Gira Kougeki displayed like this at Fishing Show Osaka like five years before it ever hit production. Deps also teases a lot of concept lures that are either still being worked on or never got produced for whatever reason.

That’s awesome man I was gonna say I wonder if it’s similar to the gira gira in size. I wonder if they just gift them to people or fish them themselves. That show sounds awesome wish I could make it someday Jon P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I was saying with the Gira Gira, they showed that years before it ever hit production as just a prototype. Sometimes the prototype stuff drops in a year, sometimes it takes forever. I still haven’t gotten my hands on the Gira Gira though, bet it’d be a sick pike bait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard some rumblings about QC and durability issues when it was first released. No idea if they were legit / substantiated or not.
