For fans of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Bandai revealed new images of their upcoming Robot Damashii SIDE MS Shenlong Gundam. Yes we posted this late, admittedly because I forgot about it last week. So why post now? Well we know some of you are fans of Toonami and 1 of the most popular shows on it back in the day was Gundam Wing.

With Wu Fei’s suits accounted for(the TV series suits that is), the only remaining “1st” Mobile Suit figure left to make for the main 5 characters is Gundam Deathscythe. Maybe Tamashii Nations will make it, maybe not. Considering that they even bothered to make the Aries…perhaps Deatchscythe is a given…

Anyways, Robot Damashii Shenlong Gundam is a TamashiiWeb exclusive, and so far there is no word of Bluefin bringing this over as a shared US exclusive. Price is 4,410 yen and it’s planned for release in September. Read on to check out the images.

The Tamashii Webshop has posted  a pre-order page(time to get nice with your connects in Japan!) for the Metal Build 00 Raiser Renewal Color/Markings Version. This release bundles the Metal Build 00 Gundam with the Metal Build 0 Raiser with new paint and markings supervised by designer Kanetake Ebikawa. Pre-orders in Japan started on March 22nd. These are made to order and in addition, are hand painted! TamashiiWeb has therefore stated that there may be some slight variations in the paint applications.

Metal Build 00 Raiser is planned for release in August for 18,900 yen. It stands approximately 180mm tall(1/100 scale) and is made of ABS, PVC, and of course, diecast metal. Click on the headline to check it out.

Tamashii has posted preview images for their upcoming July releases, including Robot Damashii SIDE MS Gundam Double X from the mid 90′s Mobile Suit Gundam X anime. The G-Falcon is nowhere to be seen, so it looks like the G-Falcon may actually turn out to be a TamashiiWeb exclusive. Click on the headline to preview the new Gundam Double X figure!

 

Recently we showed you official images of Robot Damashii SIDE MS Gundam Heavyarms but you are probably thinking…”wait..somethings missing…”. Yes Tamashii pulled a Robot Damashii Leo on us, as the parts one thought ought to come with Heavyarms are instead going to be sold in an option parts set. This set also comes with parts for the Robot Damashii SIDE MS Gundam Sandrock. If you want to recreate the duel between Heavyarms(piloted by Heero), and Tallgeese, you need this set. This set comes via the Tamashii Webshop, no word at the moment if Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA will bring this over. Pre-orders go live on March 4th, with a scheduled release date of July 2013. Cost is 2,310 yen. Parts included are the following:

Tamashii Nations has posted a preview page for their upcoming toys for release in June. Among the figures scheduled for release by then is none other than the long awaited Robot Damashii SIDE MS Gundam Heavyarms! Trowa’s suit stood out and lived up to its name by primarily having a barrage of guns for weapons with only a small knife for melee combat(unless you count that time Heero used the suit and had the Wing Gundam’s beam saber during the duel with Zechs/Tallgeese I).

With the reveal of Heavyarms, perhaps it’s only a matter of time before the main 5 hero suits are complete. The remaining suits include Gundam Deathscythe, Wing Gundam & Shenlong Gundam. Then of course Deathscythe Hell. Since the order of release has been hard to predict, who knows what Tamashii will throw in next? For all we know it could be the Mercurius followed up by some random cannon fodder MS from Turn-A Gundam.

It’s been a while since Tamashii has made a Unicorn Gundam figure in Unicorn mode. Just as they made a larger Destroy mode figure in their Robot Damashii line which was larger and more articulated than its predecessor, they are making a new Unicorn mode figure! The Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA Facebook page has updated with images and info for the upcoming US release of the Robot Damashii SIDE MS Full Armor Unicorn Gundam Unicorn Mode. More info:

Following the release of the highly praised Robot Spirits Destroy Mode is another ‘full-action’ Robot Spirits title. The Robot Spirits Full Armor Unicorn Gundam (Unicorn mode) will also incorporate the same cutting edge action figure articulation technology, larger proportion and high precision sculpt. Full armor is of course included as separate parts. In addition to full armor accessories this high-end robot action figure set includes an extensive array of accessories: beam saber x 2, beam magnum, shield joint, and a special Tamashii Stage figure stand.

Also shown is a comparison sans armor comparing the new Unicorn mode figure with its predecessor, and the recently revealed Robot Damashii SIDE MS Gundam Banshee Norn Unicorn Mode. Click on the headline to see all the new images!

Tamashii has updated with official images for their upcoming ROBOT Damashii SIDE MS Aries figure. This version is the mass production OZ version. The cannon fodder if you will. This is the very 1st time that this particular design will be made in action figure form. Bandai has been giving Gundam Wing fans a lot of love this year.

The Aries figure stands approximately 130mm. It is able to transform by swapping parts. It comes with a chain rifle, missle pods and swappable hands. Check out the new images by clicking on the headline.

I have no idea what the hell this is but evidently this is a Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme VS Full Boost. Tamashii has posted new official images of this upcoming release, due in April 2013 for 4,410 yen. It comes with removable armor, stands approximately 125mm and is made of ABS and PVC.
