So Bandai's finally released some more images of the Super Minipla Daizyujin's grey prototype, we have our first look at what the individual Guardian Beasts will look like
Will be released March 2017. |

It looks pretty great! The super mini-pla line is so frustrating though, things sell out so quickly (not unlike SHF occasionally), and most recently GaoGaiGar was put up for sale randomly as far as I know only while he had his grey prototype images like Daizyujin here. I don't get the way Bandai does its preorders. Why have a set amount of stock allocated? If more people want to place orders why not just make more before manufacturing starts? GSC's preorders somehow manage to stay open for a long time so I'm not sure why they shouldn't be similar.

Minipla's usually around six inches, so roughly around the size of a Deluxe Transformer or 1/144 Scale gunpla.
They'll be painted, though there's gonna be a lot of stickers. Here's a review of Xabungle to give you a good idea of what to expect: http://suprememecha.blogspot.com/201...-xabungle.html |

Looks great, I love the ever so slightly chubified proportions on everything. Reminds me of the original toy but better proportioned and articulated. I only wish the Sabertooth Tiger Zord's legs were articulated, though given the scale they'd likely be more finnicky and annoying than useful for posing. (if this is standard HG size)
I check HLJ every day for preorders. I really, really don't want to miss it like I did GaoGaiGar. Quote:

Looking at the pics, if you pay close attention to the texture of the parts like the chest and shoulders, (as well as the visible pegs inside the shoulderpads) a lot of the main patterns will be handled by parts seperation, so hopefully stickers will just be relegated to the eyes and such smaller details. Just looking at the photos, it seems like alot of the detail's gonna be etched into the plastic so painting it shouldn't be a problem for people that want too.
