Thanks to sources over on Weibo, we have new pictures of upcoming Orb releases, with Fan Favorite Juggulus Juggler getting a January 2018 release date selling at an MSRP of 6500 Yen. Meanwhile Orb's first in-show form, Spacium Zeperion is being released a month earlier, at an MSRP of 5500 yen. Burnmite, Hurricane Slash, and Thunder Breaster were revealed too, but are labeled as "Display Only."

Aw yus, I need those.
I do think both Spacium Zeperion and Jugglus Juggler are retail releases, both lack the Premium Bandai logo on their cards, plus, I don't expect Orb's first form to be a Web-Exclusive and the wording of their releases on the cards is identical so I do think Juggler will land at retail too. Which is sweet, that saves me some cash. I do hope they release all of the alternate forms as well during the next year, they look great! |

Aww yes! Jugglus is a definite buy and I'm VERY tempted by Thunder Breaster too.
The rest I'll have to pass on. They all look FANTASTIC but gotta draw the line somewhere and getting all the Ultra kaiju/aliens is proving pricey enough glad they're all coming out though, I just wish X would get some love as well.

Damn, I love the Orb designs but Figuarts are just too pricey.

And it's a Robot Damashii too, not a Chogokin, so this shouldn't tear a giant hole into your wallet.

For some reason I was expecting SHF Pacific Rim figures but Robot Damashii makes more sense. Haha. Definitely excited to see more though. I'm liking the new design.

Not unless it's one of them fancy Metal Robot Damashiis.

It's not. They put Metal in the logo when it has metal. But yeah, I hate when they add needless metal to.
This is exactly what I wanted from Bandai, so I'm game. |
