Bandai Launches Premium Bandai USA, Bringing Exclusives to US Customers

Bandai Premium USA

We’ve received a press release from Bandai. They are bringing their Premium Bandai exclusive directly to customers in the USA. They are starting off with both Dragon Ball and GUNPLA items. Check out the full press release below.

PREMIUM BANDAI USA BRINGS EXCLUSIVE GUNDAM MODELS AND DRAGON BALL FIGURES TO NORTH AMERICA

Premium Bandai USA Online Store Adds Limited Edition S.H.Figuarts Action Figures From Tamashii Nations And Gundam Model Kits From Bandai Spirits Hobby

Anaheim, CA, March 2, 2020 – Premium Bandai USA is Bandai’s official online store and focuses on stocking high quality anime, video game, and Tokusatsu merchandise. These limited edition and variant products are not available from any other domestic retailer and include action figures, model kits, jewelry and other collectibles based on many popular anime and video game properties

Starting on April 2, 2020, Premium Bandai USA will begin offering highly sought-after and exclusive collectibles from renowned Bandai toy and collectible brands to domestic fans and customers. The catalog has been expanded to feature Tamashii Nation’s S.H.Figuarts action figure line and Bandai Spirits Hobby’s catalog of Gundam model kits (GUNPLA), including many rare and limited-edition releases that were, until now, available only to the Japanese market.

Nearly two dozen of Dragon Ball and Mobile Suit Gundam products will be available direct to North American consumers starting on April 2nd via Premium Bandai USA

What is S.H. Figuarts?
A new standard in action figures representing the state of the art Tamashii Nation design technology. Designed to realistically mimic the full range of motion of the human body, the series name is a contraction of the concepts of “Simple Style” and “Heroic Action.” Standing roughly 14cm tall, the highly posable S.H.Figuarts figures are designed to feel like little treasures.

What is “GUNPLA”?
Gundam + Plastic Model = GUNPLA

GUNPLA is the common name for plastic models of Mobile Suits, Mobile Armor, and other robots that appear in the iconic Mobile Suit Gundam anime series.

Over 445 million GUNPLA models have been sold in the past 40 years since the first “1/144 Gundam” model was released in 1980. GUNPLA models are now manufactured in Japan with planning, product development and production taking place at the BANDAI Hobby Center, located in “Hobby City Shizuoka,” in order to maintain high quality and accurately meet market demand while also ensuring uniformity in design.

    I'd like to see them offer that Warhammer 40K Space Marine figure on their site.

    Pretty much everything SHF DB has got over here lately. Curious what's going to be available. Also curious on timing. Will they ship straight from Japan on the Japanese release date? I guess we will see!

    Before they revamped the US P-Bandai site, that was the case.

    If it's new releases and back catalogue items for Gunpla and Figuarts, but I hope it's not just DB and MCU stuff for the latter.

    Is it going to include Kamen Rider and Ultraman Figuarts that are web exclusives in Japan?

    Marvel probably, but they can't do Star Wars unless something changed with the Hasbro license. I feel like they would've said something at Toy Fair had that been the case.

    So does this just basically mean that we can buy stuff from their site even though we live in North America now. I'm kinda confused.

    No. What it means is that they are offering MORE stuff to the US Premium site than before. Not that you can order whatever from the JP site and get it in the US. I wish that was the case. You'll still need someone in Japan to get the majority of the good stuff from their site.

    I figured for star wars but I was hoping still.

    Will Premium Bandai US site ship items to Canada? Cuz on Instagram, Tamashii Nations has said they would only be shipping to US, while on here, it says to North Americans, which I assumed meant US and Canada. Plus I was able to register to the Premium Bandai US site to become a member even though I live in Canada.

    premium bandai doesn't ship to u.s. territories or p.o. boxes so this makes things a big pain in the ass for me. I just bought all my db figuarts from BBTS who do ship here and they got every exclusive. So they're basically screwing over any fan that doesn't live in the continental u.s. with this move.

    Why wouldn't they deliver to PO Boxes? Wouldn't it be ideal to ship to those given it means less chance of the item getting stolen?
