Wrote email to Bandai regarding VOLTES V SOC and they answered Dear Sir, Thank you for your comment and I apologize for the delay in response. As we have received several emails from Phillipines and other countries for the launch of Soul of Chogokin series, we will take the comments of the SOC fans will start discussing over the launch. The launch is not yet decided, since it is very much depending on the license we can receive. Should you have any other question or comment, please feel free to contact us.

That is very interesting. I just hate it when there is no personal touch in the letters.

Looks like the same email that Mechapunk received. He forwarded me a copy (below). Whether this is something good or not, I guess only time will tell. We are talking about Bandai.

hey guys...just tell your friends about this...i will collect all the emails as soon as i think that the emails are enough to "convince" bandai...although I have sent thme the partial list...
Also...be glad that at least you receive replies from Bandai....even if you think they are 'generic: replies...at least it only means one thing...they receive your messages and hopefully they will consider a voltes V Soul Of Chogokin!
Also...in one of teh reolies from Bandai they said that they are looking into the licensing of Voltes V...do they mean licensing Voltes V in the USA? Well, first they were able to make a GASHAPON VOLTES V recently so tehre is no licensing problems with that in JAPAN....but I do not hink that they need to have licensing/rights for USA...they can just make VOLTES V SOUL OF CHOGOKIN IN JAPAN...then we can just buy the VOLTES V SOC on ebay!!! just like what we have done in buying teh VOLTES V GASHAPON!!

just letting you guys know on august 22-24 I'll be going to the toronto comic book convention. I have an art table there I will also be giving out petition slips for people to sign up here to get more names. I have a drawing and pictures of the robots to help the cause of promotion.
I think each and everyone should do a daimos and voltes v day to spread the word. My day would be august 22-24

That is good...at least they are listening!! Dang! I fogot about that! I was s'posed to suggest a petition signing at the Toycon that we just had last week (June 21)!!! Dagnammit! That was a perfect place to start one since Filipino collectors are NEVER without Voltes V in their collection. Anyway, there are already rumors that the 3rd one will be held this December. If so, I'll just start there. SPD, John, nice way to go dudes! Hope to see results soon

Here is my response to BANDAI. Dear Tammy Kobayashi: I know you have the license for VOLTES V because you already have the VOLTES V GASHAPON/GACHAPON. So I think there will be no difficulty for Bandai to acquire any licensing requiremnt to make a VOLTES V Soul of Chogokin. Even a re-issue of VOLTES V Volt In BOX is also good...but a SOUL OF CHOGOKIN VOLTES V will be better, because we want to have an IMPROVED VOLTES V Robot/toy in our collection. We, the fans/otakus like the way BANDAI makes robots who are given the Soul Of Chogokin "design"/treatment. We hope that you will do the same design/treatment for a Voltes V/Borutesu Faibu. THANK YOU very much. regards and please reply to: johnparas11@hotmail.com From: "Tokyo Customer Service" <globalservice@bandai.co.jp> To: <johnparas11@hotmail.com> Subject: Re: SOUL OF CHOGOKIN VOLTES V Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2003 11:00:06 +0900 Dear Mr. Paras, Thank you for your email and I apologize for the dalay in response. Recently we have been receiving the product request for Chogokin series to add the character for Voltes V and others. We will keep in mind of your comment and forward to our R&D. As our products are usually made with appropriate license from the licensor, we will do our best to meet the demand of the customer like you. Again, thank you for your comment. Should you have any question or any other comment on our product, please feel free to contact us. Regards, Tammy Kobayashi Global Business Dept.
