Looking pretty neat! Unless the price is really outrageous, I'm willing to foot the bill on this one, in hopes that the line continues.

C'mon Bio Robo!

It'll be in the SP02 set along with RyuuTeiOh. Preorders are already available.

Man, I am willing to eat the extra cost of Super Mini-Pla over regular Mini-Pla sets if they keep releasing older mecha.

Could someone refresh me on when they started making Mini-Pla sets with more articulation than the DX toys?

I believe Go-onger was the first with a bit more articulation. Not 100% certain though. I can tell you that they got much better with ToQger, at least in my opinion.

Is there an official explanation from Bandai on why they hike prices for Super Mini-Pla?

In the case of Titanus, I can sorta see it with the fact that it does have that motorized gimmick. Could also be the fact that it actually uses paint apps instead of stickers too.

I feel like ToQger is when they embraced the fact that they could make much more articulated Mini-Pla for people who wanted that and leave the DX figures more simple for people who wanted that. I remember being disappointed with Kyoryuger's Mini-Pla because of how close they kept to the DX figures, so maybe that was part of the change.

I was looking into it, and I know they offered improved articulation as early as Magiranger with MagiLegend, but I don't know if the other mecha in that line, or any series before that were treated like that. I know Boukenger and later were all cool.

Not official, but my theories about the factors are a) some painted parts, b) more variety in sprue colors?, and c) they know older fans will pay more for classic mecha.

I would hazard a guess that the production runs are smaller, so they have to raise prices to cover the cost.

Also I have not been getting much done lately. Here's Battle Orion so far:

Series 07 is for november 28th
Here is a first look for kojishi voyager, kyutama skill set and moraimars :

I am a bit surprised by how late it is released as it already seen on TV. The minipla are usually released on the second tuesday of the month...

The banner picture come from www.bandai.co.jp/candy/. But the sentai candai site has not been updated for now. Should be up soon...

Neoxul

Oh cool. So if I were to guess, 1 moraimars takes 3 boxes, Kojishi voyager takes 1 box, and then the extra kyutama are 4 per box (2 boxes total). That would mean you get 2 morairmars, 2 kojishi voyagers and 2 of each extra kyutama in a 12-box set. Might be worth keeping my pre-order if it means I end up with two evil mechs for the kyurangers to face off against. Haha.
