Hi !!! I'm New on this forum. I want to say "Hellooooo" to everybody ! I beging asking you if anyone knows if Bandai will release new Mazinger figures of the Soul Of Chogokin line on 2007. I have almost all the edited till now, but i want mooooooore !!! jejeje.

ANYONE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT THAT HEEEEEELP. Thank You All. I will post some pictures of my collection on the future, to see what do you think. And forgive my (sometimes) awfull english, i'm spanish, jijijiji.

Welcome to RJ, Manumadrid!
Glad to have you here!
As for your question, the SOC Line has pretty much been saturated with Mazinger Z already. Bandai has the most complete line of the classic Mazinger characters:
- GX-01 Mazinger Z - GX-01R Mazinger Z (revision) - GX-02 Great Mazinger - GX-02R Great Mazinger (revision) - GX-07 Mazinger Z OAV Version - GX-08 Aphlodai - GX-09 Mineva X - GX-10 BossBorot - GX-11 Dianan A - GX-12 Venus Ace - GX-25 Garada K7 - GX-26 Doublas M2
There have also been re-issues of:
- GX-01R - GX-08 - GX-01 & GX-08 Package - GX-02R - GX-08 - GX-09 - GX-02R & GX-12 Package
Late 2006. If there will be future Mazinger releases, I don't know what else Bandai can throw out. ;D

HI !! Thank You for the fast answer Omni Existence !!
Augh !! I hope they think on new releases. I think they have too much versions of the same caracter (you know, Mazinger first version, black, gold, chrome, with flowers on the air.... (it's a joke...jajaja)....) and that have saturated.
What new releases they can made? it's easey to say... All the bad guys !!! There are many ... errrr... "Animal machines"? I don't know how to write the name of the bad guys on english, on spain they was the "Brutos Mecanicos", i think there must be something like "Beast Machines" or "Devil Machines"... ejem... any way...
If you remember well the series, i'm sure that there are many of this bad guys that you remeber very well... if they have released GARADA K-7 and Douglas M-2... why don't release more as DEIMOS F3 and DEVIRA X1 that was beautiful monsters, or... JINRAY S1 - BELGAS V5 - GRENGUS C3 - BARAS K9 - JELBROS J3 - GENOCIDER F9.............
snifffffffffffffffff.... they would be so many awsome figures...
maybe we can send some suggestions to bandai in some way... do you know if this is posible? I'm ready to saturate their emails if it is necesary.... jajajaja.
best regards. Manu.

You are most welcome! ;D As far as enemy mechs go (I think they were called Mechanical Brutes in the English version- Tranzor Z), there's a discussion of possible Kaiju releases in the future here: robotjapan.proboards12.com/index.cgi?board=SOC&action=display&thread=1166874023There was also a discussion of this before, and another member (Greattoys-Net: a toy seller), mentioned that Kaiju or enemy robots weren't that big in Japan, that's why there's only a small number of enemy toys released to date. If there's not enough demand for Kaiju Robots in Japan, it's unlikely that Bandai or any other company would gamble releasing them. ;D

Robot Junior is still missing, and I'd really like a SoC release.
It was released in the Popy GA vintage series, but as far as I know it was a huge commercial flop.

Being this year will be the line's 10th year anniversary, I wont be surprised if they go back to what started it all... Maybe we'll finally see Mazinkaiser, or a reissued GX-07, or like 45 said, a Robot Junior with a mean ass Baseball bat, OR maybe a redesigned gokin Mazinger similar to the Eva 01 of the Spec line?

Thank You all for the warm welcome. Maybe i must thinking on go to the streets of Madrid (here on spain) to look for japanese guys and asking them if they know someone that works on Bandai Japan. At the firts that say "yes"... i would promise to kiss his ass or anything he want only if he tell his friend to send a message to Bandai.... WE WANT MECHANICAL BRUTES !!!! jajajajajajaja. By the way... Do you Know that in spain are a Mazinger Statue? It is on a town near Tarragona. I let you this images... it's suposse to be built on the correct 18 m. tall... but i'm not sure the proportion it's correct... but, i think that this must be the "Meca" (like islam meca) of any mazinger fan to go on live for once (or more). Go there and fall on the knees before the GOD mazinger.... jejeje.

Bienvenidos, Manumadrid! Welcome!!!
That Mazinger statue is very famously well-known among Mazinger fans. I envy you... you live "just a walk away" from that statue! ;D What is it made of, concrete or steel?
If I could visit Spain some day, el primer place that I would visit would be that statue- so I have a fotograf of me beside it. Then I'd go around to meet some of the fans from El Rincon de Garada (www.garada.net).
Spain is a very beautiful country. It is the Motherland of all spanish languages. *^__^*

Yes magengar. I'm obssesed to go to the statue this summer and take a lot of pics.
I had read that it's made of fibberglass... but i think it's a weak material for a statue of this size... i don't know.
I know garada.net webpage, it's a VERY good page. And another it's Mazinteam.Net, that's awsome !! I recommend you, but is in spanish too. They do really fabulous jobs editing the episodes.
