Big s Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) After just watching this show about a year ago on crunchyroll, Bandai decided to make some minipla kits. The brown one is a web exclusive and the other 2 are standard release. There weren’t too many designs in the series, but I figured starting a topic for this show may be fun. The kits look a bit limited in the upper legs, but may be cool for fans to display. Edited March 16, 2018 by Big s Misspelled watching Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Yeah. I love this mecha. But too bad I missed out on Sentinel's offering years ago. Plus I can't afford that toy back then. So I'm not going to let this announced Mini-Pla release to pass me by. Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Adding more info for the Giant Gorg Super Mini-Plas. Giant Gorg July 2018 Y2100 Manon Guardian July 2018 Y2100 Lubble(?) Guardian July 2018 Y2700 Premium Bandai Edited March 16, 2018 by no3Ljm Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 I'm just adding Sentinel's Giant Gorg figure reviews here from Josh of CollectionDX and KumaStyle. So we're just not limited to Mini-Plas. Would be nice to know other merchandise from this anime. And hopefully this Sentinel releases will get reissued once again. Quote
Big s Posted March 16, 2018 Author Posted March 16, 2018 It really was a good show for old school mecha. And i’mglad To see that you added past merch to go with the new. Preorders are up for the basic set, I’ll check on the web exclusive. Quote

Preorders are up for the basic set, I’ll check on the web exclusive. You're welcome. I already placed an order at AmiAmi for Gorg and Manon set. I wanted to wait for Nippon-Yasan to post theirs so I can get the 3 figures from them and have it ship altogether. But, can't resist to preorder the first two on AmiAmi. Don't want to risk being sold out at first like the Galient one. Quote
Big s Posted March 16, 2018 Author Posted March 16, 2018 Were you able to eventually get the galient? I also couldn’t wait on the gorg set either and preordered it with a ps version of the wave berserga desert type kit since both went up on preorder. I couldn’t find the guardian at ny and i’m Hoping I don’t have the problem I had with not finding a preorder on the promaxis from galient. there were actually a few kits up for preorder tonight since the gouf flight type and rg zaku minelayer also popped up Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Yes. After the preorder got reopened. 2 weeks before it got released. If ever the Guardian is not going to be available like the Promaxis at NY, it's not a biggie. As long that I have Gorg and Manon on my order, I'm good. Quote
Big s Posted March 16, 2018 Author Posted March 16, 2018 It is a good set. 2 for one with lots of accessories, but I wouldn’t mind the other guardian even if it costs a little more Quote
Kuma Style Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 These are beautiful and a must have for me to accompany the Sentinel offerings. I wonder since like Mazinkaiser they're just downscaled Sentinel offerings in kit form, they'll retain the hip gimmick to where they can slide down and move under the skirt? That'd be fantastic. Quote
Big s Posted March 16, 2018 Author Posted March 16, 2018 They are just minipla, so I doubt they would have any gimmicks. The pictures show the leg a bit forward and I think it’s safe to assume that due to the design that that’s as far as it goes. Often when these get teased bandai will show off pictures to show off the range of motion in some way. To be honest these bots rarely moved their legs more than what thes pictures show in the anime anyway. They did have the rare scene of kneeling, but mostly big slow steps. Quote
Beltane70 Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 Nice! Guess I’ll have to pick these up when I go to Japan this summer! Quote
dizman Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Did anyone ever make a toy or a model of the APC? Maybe someone should call up Sentinel and get them on it! Quote

dizman Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Hmm my guess would probably be around 84/85 so it could sell with the series, thanks I'll keep an eye out for one! Quote
