From the tamashii nations presentation at Wonfes. That's all they showed as far as I know and the audio was in japanese so I have no idea what exactly it is other than a Mazinger head.

Another Mazinger!! I knew it!!!!!
In fairness, I think we all saw it coming, it's the 20th Anniv for the SOC line. So it's gotta commemorate it.
Just hope it will be a good new toy and not just another reuse of the Gx01R... hmm... DX SOC Maz but in 7" form?
The next screen cap after it shows the date 8.23 So I guess we'll have the full reveal then. Maybe this is what Go Nagai was going to Italy for.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Oh well. With a bit of luck, maybe it will lead to a new Boss Borot SOC.

Some are speculating it could be another pilder. Perhaps there will be a light and sound gimmick when attaching it to the head. Or like Gold said it could finally be a scaled down ver of DX Mazinger Z.

I also think it's a Mazinger Z bust. Is Pileder included or BYOP?

i hope bandai makes a good looking and accurate soc mazinger, like they did with the gx-45 shin mazinger except its elbows. the gx-01r is nothing like the show, but the gx-45 is almost identical. and i hope it doesnt look like the dx mazinger or the src mazinger. those two are even less similar to the original show. i dont think it is a bust at all because it has the chest plates in that picture and the original bust did not have those and it was big already.

Lol there was no way it wasn't going to be a mazinger. 20th anniversary and gx-70 and all. Just like gold said.

And they know we will buy it too, just like when we did when they released the 40th anniversary mazinger.

Yeah i really hope its anime accurate this time. I also see bit of shoulder too, so maybe it is not a bust?
Big head, big feet and tapering limbs would be really really cool. Dont forget ton of diecast!

Busts and pilders would probably be in the Soul of Popynica line, but they're releasing spaceship SOCs now, so who knows...

Yeah, I'm thinking it's possibly going to be a DX Mini Maz. It would be easy to scale down the DX since most companies usually start with 2-ups first before down sizing it for proper details. But what I would love to see would be a Maz with the cool "wireless" light up features like what's going on over with the SHF Kamen Riders. The eyes of the figure (and in the case of Mazinger perhaps the chest too) light up, but the real gimmick is that the batteries are located in the display base (I think). The darn thing's powered by Bluetooth tech (I think? Or something called NFC?). I'm not sure how it works but that seems to be what Bandai is teasing with the upcoming SHF "Kamen Rider Black Luminous Ver" figure. The batteries are in the base, and the figure's electronics are powered "wirelessly" into the toy. Go here: (just hit CTRL+F and search for "wireless" after the jump) tokusatsunetwork.com/2016/05/tamashii-features-2016-roundup-tokusatsu-s-h-figuarts/The actual product is called "Soul Stage Act Wireless". I think it's even suggested that the base will also feature some link up with an app for our smart phones so that our phones will play the audio clips when it interacts with the base? Not 100% sure on that but it would be an impressive addition. Alternately, my friend and I were discussing the possibility of a SOC Mazinger but this time it will come with the Photon Labs dio, sort of like SOC Combattler's Nambara Connection playset. But I think the chances of that are kind of slim, given how big the lab dio has to be (unless, it's, I dunno, cardboard? ) Gold
