Originally only included with Bandais Super Robot Chogokin Might Gaine the Tamashii Stage Act Trident will be seeing a complete mass release! Though this stage originally came with a figure unrelated to tokusatsu many collectors have taken to displaying their S.H. Figuarts, S.I.C.’s, and SRC Sentai robos on these stages.
Bandai responded to a huge fan demand that these stages be made publicly available to tokusatsu collectors. Now they will have the opportunity to own these handy display bases in 3 colors; Clear, Transparent Black, and White! The stages will be available from May, costing 1260 yen each.
