I tried posting about this yesterday but I guess it didn't take with the mods or something. Anyway, super excited! I already got my preorder in

Welp, guess I gotta get my pre-order in. Perfect timing too because I just got notified that Dairen'oh will arrive Friday.

edit: What's the difference between the Japan and China releases for Won Tiger? China is $10 cheaper, is it the same thing?

I believe they should be the same. On the blog they wrote DairenOh is coming out in China sooner because those stores are closer to the factory

On Tokullectibles, it had Japan coming out sooner, so that's the one I pre-ordered. Whatever, I'm excited either way.

Which stands are good for mini-pla? Mine are all just standing there awkwardly and I'd like to do something more interesting.

Me too

Here's a question. Would everyone be down for an SMP Turbo Robo if Bandai decides to greenlight it?

I might have an interest.

Me too

Edit: I thought you were talking about the RV Robo/ Turbo Megazord, this is the SMP I want

Sounds cool but I rather have Time Robo

I have never seen Turborager, so I'd rather see them do RV Robo from Carranger. But my most wanted SMP is Time Robo

DairenOh is an amazing build where my only complaint is due to wanting to get the full combined form at be the size of an average Sentai mecha in the SMP line instead of having RyuseiOh at that size and having the full form be larger akin to the old DX toy

Ohranger Robo, Mega Voyager, and Flash King are still my biggest wants from SMP.
Not to say Turbo Robo isn't a nice look, but it's just kind of in the middle of the pack, and lacks any form of attachment from me.

Got Dairen'oh in the mail the other day, really excited to build it.

As for what else I'd like, after Dairanger I think the only ones I really want would be Ohranger, Gekiranger, and Battle Fever Robo

Also, anybody have suggestions for stands to display my kits on?

Well, if I may. :lolol

I feel like the way it's divided up and how it combines is just great. Especially how Red Turbo's Turbo GT latches on at the end. And yes it roller skates. :lolol

Well with Galaxy Mega and Delta Mega getting a rerelease and the Shodo figures on the way, I would like for Bandai to finish Mega Ranger by releasing Mega Voyager and Mega Winger.

Those too. :rock:

Man I just love the vehicle mecha from the 80s and 90s Sentai series especially the creative ways the multiple robos combine with each other

And one of them roller skates. :lolol
Joking aside yes. You should check out Bio Robo if you haven't btw, really good design.

Nice, will do, I know the SMP for biorobo caught my attention

I love the boxiness of old sentai mech. BioRobo is one of my favorite, but I actually skipped out on the kit because I thought I was buying too many. I'd really like Galaxy Mega but I don't want to pre-order the re-release because I'm not as interested in Delta Mega. I've never been much of a fan of that design.

RIP my request for stand suggestions T.T

Does a Bandai Tamashii Nations Act 5 stand not work well with SMP?

It should as long as it has a 3mm peg.

Act 6 bases are probably better sized, though.

Apparently the SMP Won Tiger/White Tigerzord was so popular that they ended the first batch of preorders on Premium Bandai and are going to open a second round. Also the Bandai Candy Toy blog has pictures of an early prototype for review purposes.

Nice! Can you link the prototype please?

Thank you!

Also SMP is going back to Jetman and teasing Tetraboy, I never seen Jetman so I didn?t know this guy existed until today. So?there is hope they will finish up Mega Ranger!

Not only did they do Tetraboy, they also did Ninjaman, so yeah I'd say it's entirely possible. Of course, we don't know if they actually will or not until they announce it, but I see no reason to think that it's impossible.

It looks a bit basic here, but I feel like some panel lining will really bring it to life. Not sure how I feel about the cookies'n'cream testure, though...was it like that in the show?

It was like that on the original DX, which they are trying to emulate

Bandai Candy Toy Blog finally revealed CG images of SMP Daimugen / Tor the ShuttleZord!

Got a link?

Render looks nice, but I think I'll be skipping this one. I have limited space and this looks a bit too big and clunky for where I display my kits. On top of that, I'm just not a big fan of these carrier vehicles. I skipped King Brachion as well.

Bandai Candy Toy Blog reveal post

Tokullectibles has it available for preorder, with options for either the Japanese or Chinese release...? Interesting :eyebrow:

Thanks for the link

Wait wait wait...what is that about Won Tiger's legs? Are those extra parts going to be included in Won Tiger pre-orders? Or do they come with Daimugen?

As I understand it, those inner leg panels will come with the Robo-Turtle.

I was hoping that wasn't the case. I want the panels but this is too big for my display area :cry

Yeah, SMP Tor comes with special Finishing Move backdrops for the Thunder Megazord and Mega Tigerzord, as well as optional leg panels for the SMP Tigerzord.

They said in the article that it's not something they were originally planning on doing, but because demand for the Tigerzord kit has been so much higher than expected that they were able to add it to the budget for Tor.

Oh man the backdrops come with it too?

The translation I was reading was a bit iffy so it was hard to fully understand what I was reading.

Admittedly I only figured it out due to Google Translate myself, but this is what it said for me:

They also showed a CG sample of what it'll look like with the leg covers attached.
