Love it. I wish Bandai came out with more of these FA figures. They're fun to mess with.

 Ooo.  Nice.  New Getter G and a new Gaiking.

 Holy… 750mm length  175mm height   This definitely does not fit in my display shelf   Still want it to replace GX05 DaikyuMaru    Spiky little bastard.

Here I was thinking #100 would be another Mazinger.

Just had the massive Gx-100 get delivered to me.   It’s a slight upgrade from ol GX-05 and GX-27.  
 

Haven’t hada chance to open it yet but I had to get a size comparison shot of an HMR and GX-27 outside of the box.

Chogokin corner at the Tamashii World Tour Tokyo. Any guesses on what's the next figure for Chogokin's 50th Anniversary? It will be revealed at the International Tokyo Toy Show 2023 which will be held on June 8-11, 2023.

 

Aside from the regular Chogokin figure reveal, how I wish they will also say something regarding a DXSoC Daimos. One can only wish. 

[Valkyrie Hunter D]

My guess is another Mazinger. 

[Jeremy007]

I would love for it to be a non combining, show accurate Golion…

or a modern updated Machine Robo Puzzler but i know neither are at all likely. 

[no3Ljm]

I know it might be a stretch. But I wonder if Bandai can do a Chogokin Giant Gorg knowing that Takara is mostly the ones that's doing figures before? Sentinel did one previously which I wasn't able to get one. I think Giant Gorg is a great candidate for a Chogokin figure. Again, one can only wish.

Zoids fans rejoice; Bandai is doing another Zoid in the Chogokin line. This time it is the RZ-041 Liger Zero:

And this time you can buy four copies of it because they are doing an add on set so that you can customize it as one of four variants:

 

Both items are Tamashii Web Exclusives.
