Tokyo Otaku Mode.
Lelouch Lamperouge will get a 10th anniversary Smart Doll as part of a collaboration with Sunrise. The announcement was made on December 2, Lelouch's birthday, and also promises the "the other main 3 characters to follow soon after."
Lelouch is slated for release in the early first half of 2017. He will measure 61cm (24in) tall. The price is still to be determined.
Danny Choo's Smart Doll has been in the works since at least 2013 as "an interactive home appliance" that helps users "bid farewell to roneriness." The doll was originally made in the image of the original character Mirai Suenaga but has since expanded out into many different looks.
The current rendition is a posable fashion doll. It uses an internal skeleton to stay posed without the use of a stand or other assistance.
Sunrise announced at the Code Geass 10th Anniversary event that the series is getting a sequel titled Code Geass: Fukkatsu no Lelouch (Code Geass: Lelouch of the Resurrection), but the announcement did not reveal the format of the project. A compilation film trilogy is also planned.
