Official Bandai (Japan) Thread 2.0

[Titanus_Rodan]

Looking at the Jirass retool and reading up on the planned Ultra/Movie Monster Series stuff, I predict that Showa Baragon mold is about to see a LOT of action.

Where are you reading up on this line at?

[Legion1979]

I'll have to leave it to those who can post photos, but pics of the flying 71 have popped up and it looks so fucking cool!

[Creature22]

Yeah, I vibe with this one. Two characters for the price of one, good sculpt, and looks like it will pop on a shelf. I’m liking it.

[onerichman]

This looks great and it looks like Godzilla has the damaged eye?

Adorable cuddle buddies (they wanna kill each other).

Also, info and pics of the next Ichiban Kuji set have been revealed!

Keeping my eye on the Monsterlise SpaceGodzilla and the Hedorah head magnet.

[LSD Jellyfish]

It’ll be released 7/26 in Japan. I’m going to get it and the Aggregate Destoroyah. Amazing figure. Also doubles as the “battle damaged” 1971 we’ve wanted.

[Mechagigan]

Wow they're getting real creative with MMS, love to see it.

[Gojirasaur]

Wow they're getting real creative with MMS, love to see it.

As long as they are sublines, I'm fine with it; well, kinda. I simply don't want them dragging out releases of basic characters like Showa Rodan, Manda, Mogeura, King Shisa, etc. as a result.

I mean I don't think it being a different line quite means that it would have it's own specific team on it so I think it's the same effect either way. That said I'd prefer this to a bunch of repaints.

I also feel like their releases are planned out pretty decently in advance so I don't think anything is getting "dragged out" in anyway that it wasn't already. Chances are they're keeping some monsters like that to put on their polls since they seem to like doing those.

[LSD Jellyfish]

Oh to be clear, the Flying Godzilla seems to be listed on Amazon Japan, meaning it’s a wide release! Cool.

So now that we have an idea of what this line will be (random but iconic moments), anyone want to guess what tiger figures we’ll get?

My guess is drop kick 1973 Godzilla, maybe.

Oh man, tail slide kicking Godzilla would be an insta-buy for sure!!

Looking at the kiryu poster set, I’m gonna say Kong swinging Godzilla by the tail would be a perfect duo for this line, except bandai probably won’t ever do the Kong…

Maybe Godzilla throwing ebirah over his shoulder?

[Petezilla]

I seriously thought they'd mold Godzillas heat ray into the figure, since it was vital to propell him. Hedorah being part instead came completely unexpected for me...

[Dyrakro]

Next batch of Ultra figs:

July

Ultraman Omega - Rekines Armor


UMS Vagsect yes, they will be sold in a set of two


UMS Dogrid


UMS Pegunos


UMS Terijiras


August

Ultraman Omega - Trigaron Armor

[Mechagigan]

I'd like to see Godzilla ripping MechaG's head off, could be a cool excuse to do a headless MG. Could also be a way for us to finally get an in-scale Minilla, maybe they could do him and G'67 in some pose

Edit: I'm actually a big fan of how this Kiryu looks on both feet. Every MMS Kiryu I can recall is in this very plain humanoid standing pose. The posing sub-series kinda reminds me of BC's more creative takes

[canofhumdingers]

Yeah the trouble is you gotta turn his tail completely upside down to make him stand like that.

[King Dan]

Wow- Flying Godzilla is FANTASTIC!!

[Dyrakro]

Next MMS x Collab will be centered towards Ultraman Omega. I wonder what it will be? Graim maybe? Ultraman Omega himself?
Or maybe Rekines and Trigaron?

[Dyrakro]

Ultraman Omega x Movie Monster Collab Sofubi revealed:




MMS Vagsect

Yes, this one is P-Bandai again

[LSD Jellyfish]

Cool design and neat figure, but I’m not going to bother getting a premium Bandai for an Ultraman omega thing. I know there’s probably financial reasons why, but I’m a bit sad we can’t just get normal Ultraman MMS anymore.

[Dyrakro]

What about the other figs tho?

It's a bummer for sure that the big Vagsect is MMS, that opening of Omega is fire after all...
