Super Sentai minipla appreciation thread!

EpsilonX · 08-31-2023, 01:47 AM

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.

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
