Some are definitely models and/or windups (the Robocons, the Getter Dragon in the bottom right corner, likely the large Raideen). The ones in the yellow area? Maybe models too? The Godbird and the Sparcar? Look like they are from the Big Scale plastic series, but maybe they are models too.

Cool, thanks I thought these was a ad for re-issues but looking at the prices you couldn't get a cup of instant noodles for 500YEN nowadays.

So this is a new ad? I just assumed it was vintage. Many of those are still models regardless. From what I recall someone telling me years and years ago, those large feet in the plastic models are basically from an older design where mechanics for walking used to go. Or maybe the models include little motors? Not sure, but that is the gist of it.

I'm guessing it's a old ad, I was just looking around Toysdaily FB page and this picture was posted along with stuff from the Shizuoka Hobby Show that I just assumed. But I'm sure it's just a old ad, cool though.

It sort of hard to read but the bandai logo looks like its from the late 80s and the motto says "Lets make plastic models" so I guess they are model kits except for the robocon and sensei windups in the top left. The large white japanese writing to the right says "Make models of TV's popular heroes/people." The bottom left getter set are all models, but they have joints in the elbows and knees.
The raideen and getter also have some kind of motor that lets them move. sort of hard to read but the raideen can wave its arms, make a bird screech, fire an arrow and something with its mask. The getter fires its hands off/rocket punch.

Like cupnoodles said, all model kits except the two windups. I am fairly familiar with the models, I collect them but I actually don't have the reideens or getters. I collect the other bots.
