Via our good friends at Tokullector, we have our first official images of the upcoming Super Minipla Sun Vulcan Robo as well as the Super Minipla Jaguar Vulcan!

These iconic machines from Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan were announced to be coming up in the Super Minipla line back in June. While August brought our first look at the actual designs for the minipla themselves. This is however our first official confirmation and reveal of the kits and WOW do they look astonishing. When pricing and release date info becomes available, we’ll update this thread.

Bandai has announced a new release for their highly successful Minipla figure-building series!

This new release features SSSS Gridman, from the Studio Trigger anime of the same name. SSSS Gridman has proven highly successful and this announcement is merely the latest in a long line of tie-in merchandise.

At the moment only Gridman himself is shown but based on previous Minipla releases it seems likely that Gridman’s Assist Weapons will be included as well.

No price has been announced yet but SSSS Gridman is tentatively scheduled for release in Summer 2019!

Via new pre-order listings over at Tokullectibles, we have our first look at full color official images of Super Minipla Muteki Shogun, Kakure Daishogun,  & Tsubasamaru!

You may recall we’ve been following the development of these figures quite closely. The last time we checked on it, gray prototype images of Tsubasamaru had been released. However now we have initial pre-orders and official images for all 3 releases from Ninja Sentai Kakuranger! 

Tokullectibles is currently using placeholder prices for both listings starting at $1.00, while the pages aren’t live for ordering yet as well. We’ll update when Japanese pages with official pricing go live as well.

Last week we saw the first official image of the upcoming Patranger vs Lupinranger Mini-Pla version of Lupin Kaiser. Today, we have official images for everything in the first series from the Mini-Pla release.

Click the title of the story to see all the images of the Patranger vs Lupinranger Mini-Pla Vs Vehicle Series Series 01. Special thanks to neoxul of the TokuNation forums for the heads up.

Mini-Pla are miniature versions of your favorite Super Sentai mecha in model-kit form. You literally build it yourself and apply stickers (or paint if you’d like) to create a smaller, articulated version of your favorite Super Sentai mecha. If you’re not thrilled with the articulation of the large DX Mecha, definitely consider giving the incredibly affordable Mini-Pla a try!

Here we go fellow Mini-Pla collectors! We have our first look at the upcoming Mini-Pla Lupin Kaiser set. This item is already available for pre-order where Mini-Pla sets are sold so if you’re interested, be sure to grab it! This is, obviously, the Lupinranger version of the Patoranger vs Lupinranger Super Sentai series premiering next month.

For those unfamiliar with Mini-Pla – it’s considered a “candy toy” (because it comes with some delicious candy) model kit. You follow instructions on how to build each individual piece of the mecha, including where to put stickers. Many choose to paint their Mini-Pla as opposed to using the stickers. These are popular with many fans because they end up being more articulated than the actual DX toys. If you need some convincing please check out our Mini-Pla Appreciation Thread on the forums!
