CHAKSOU! 

 

With Bandai’s very retro Super Minipla Sun Vulcan Robo and Jaguar Vulcan looming just over the horizon, the time is ripe to unveil the next entry in the Super Minipla line up: as you might’ve already figured it out, it will be none other than Super Minipla Victory Robo from Kyukyu Sentai GoGo Five or as some of our Power Rangers readers will know it as: the Lightspeed Megazord.

Thus far, only the featured reference sketch for the pair of mecha was found online we have no indication on when these two will see a release but we’ll be sure to update you once more information becomes available.

Ultraman fans rejoice! A brand new suit joins the SSSP’s arsenal with lineart having been released this past weekend of the Manga’s take on the popular Ultraman Tiga design.

This is our first clear look at the Ultraman Tiga suit, thanks to line art that was released. This particular design is created by Eiichi Shimizu himself though plans to integrate it into the current story are currently unknown.

We do know that Bandai plans to release this into their Figure-Rise Standard model kit line though release info and sample photos for that piece have yet to be released at the time of this writing. We’ll be sure to update you once more info becomes available.

ACCESS FLASH!

As you may recall, Bandai teased the release of a pair of Minipla: Dyna Dragon and Gridman Sigma way back at Summer Wonder Festival in July. It’s been some time since that event and seems like Super Minipla King Gridman & Gridman Sigma are both finally ready for production. Pre-order-links have gone up, and with that, we have a plethora of new images of what the colored product will look like.

Two options will be available: to pre-ordering Dyna Dragon on his own will run you 4,860 yen while the bundle with Gridman Sigma will cost 6,480 yen. Either way, both will be shipped out sometime in February 2019.

For those new to the fandom: Gridman Sigma is the proposed sequel series to Gridman and proposed ally of Gridman. Gridman Sigma would’ve been the alter ego of Takeshi Todo, a former villain in the previous series. The hero wouldn’t make his debut proper until the 2015 animated short: Gridman: Boys Invent Great Hero.
