Am I missing something or there has not been any news regarding upcoming soc release? We usually get pictures of the blueprints or silhoutte of the figure but none lately? Would the Sanrio be considered as a major soc release? If so, what's after that?

i guess Bandai plan is hush hush about new projects like the DX Great Mazinger. also they are focusing on the SRC line now, if they produce alot of figures in more than one line they could risk a huge sale decline because not every one is ready to spend alot of cash at once for toys but this is only what i think

and that is good.
it gives smaller companies to thrive for a few months lol it gives me chance to try out other companies if theres nothing then im saving for something really special.
i dont know whats left though. theyre not going to do Voltron or Bismark........if they do SOC sidekicks or bad guys, then im there yesterday!! Maybe Sunvulcan? I'm so freaking there!!! a proper SOC Zord? ohoho, drool

also we need a new version of Daimos and Combattler V there is still alot of robots Bandai didnt make here is some Big Dai X , Albegas , Astroganger , God Mazinger , Z Mazinger , Gattaiger Mazinkaiser , Mazinkaiser SKL , Shin Getter 1,2,3 , Black Getter (SOC Treatment) this are few of what i can think of at the moment im sure other have many more in their mind i excluded Voltron and Bismark because as long as the EVIL WEP own their rights we wont see any company that's not American doing them

Before we get renewals of existing SOC's, I hope they focus on unreleased robots first. Albegas please for this Albegas fanboy!!

OMG! END OF TEH LINE! ... Just kidding. Yeah, with the upcoming Gunbuster reissue and the DX Great Mazinger, we've got plenty to keep us busy until 2016. That said, I can almost expect the next SOC to not be a combiner. Would be nice but seeing as how there's no news/blueprints about it this late into 2015, I just don't see anything as complex as a combiner rolling out in time for March-April 2016. Gold

Unreleased robots, and licenses for other robot characters, are needed. Other than that I don't know... Perhaps Bandai is afraid to break the internet. zozo-mag

OMG! END OF TEH LINE! ... Just kidding. Can't quite end until they give me a nice, big, transforming King J-Der, be it a SRC(EX) or a SOC. Pretty please? Surprise that so many 3rd party guys making complex TFs left and right, but no one dare to do King J-Der justice with a really nice release after all these years.

Maybe after the giant flop that was Goldy Marg they took a step back and began to re evaluate their approach.

I'd love a King J-der SOC but yeah, not to mention a SOC SRX. Hope it happens. Gold

I don't get the people who want SOC King J-Der, because that transformation is straight up impossible unless you're willing to accept partsforming. J-Der requires way too many anime cheats to work as both its own robot form and to be the head and arms of King J-Der.

Personally, i am enjoying the beak, the wallet could use a breather as well. The year end bandai releases, DX GM, GGGG hell & heaven triggered ver, gunbuster reissue, hi-metal r valks, metal build freedom Gundam etc will take its toll on the wallet.

Hehe, it's got more to do with the size, so it can compliment the SRC figures. But yeah, I agree. Parts swapping all around for sure to make it show accurate in all modes. The transforming head alone is already a prime example of size issues (should be around the size of Gaigar)

J-Der requires way too many anime cheats to work as both its own robot form and to be the head and arms of King J-Der. All it need is a swappable small head. J-Der can retain all the transformation and functions for the King J-Der arms as well as J-Ark. The full size transforming head (J-Der's upper body) can be a display of sort on the display stand with accessories, while a much smaller head (with movable jaw would be nice) is used in the final combine form. Its not that hard to 'get it' for people to want a nice gokin of this cool mech as it has never been done before. Didn't SOC Daltanius came with swappable bigger head and shoulder parts? Didn't Zambot 3 came with bigger tank tracks to swap in? Didn't Takara pulled off a semi-decent fully transforming plastic rendition 15-16 years ago? It is not that far fetch. I would definitely rather have a cool gokin of King J-Der with one head to swap, than not having one at all ... Not everything needs to be perfect transformation/combination, not to me at least. And they can totally do one that is in scale with SRCs. It just need to be as big as the Takara's, and I am fine with it mostly plastic with just a bit of diecast here & there, like putting most into J-Der to make it a good SRC size stand alone while the rest of the ship/big body can be a huge chunk of plastic.
