Saint Seiya Myth Cloth EX (聖闘士聖衣神話EX) is a whole new line-up derived from the Saint Seiya Myth Cloth toy-line from Bandai. It is based on the Saint Seiya franchise by Masami Kurumada is his characters. The title of the merchandise is also known as 'Saint Myth Cloth Legend EX', and 'Saint Myth Cloth EX' but the general consensus usually refer to the aforementioned title. Bandai officially unveiled the project along with the Saint Seiya Cloth Crown at May 17, 2011.

EX figures are slightly larger than their counterparts. Originally the 12 Gold Saints were the only ones to be announced, but it didn't take long till Bandai expand it towards the other Saints. The major selling point of the EX figures is the complete renovation of the figures articulation. While the Myth Cloth figures have very limited mobility, the EX figures have been designed to maximize their mobility enabling a wide range of articulation even when the figures are in their cloth. EX figures will also be packed with the characters different facial expressions as well as special effects parts to invoke some of the special moves as depicted in the anime.
