cool upcoming products. this line has potential. If im gonna interpret this.. Bandai's sort of slowing down the SOC line with some of thier underwhelming releases lately(except for the upcoming Dairugger ofcourse)..and focus on the explosion of popular characters in the Bandai Minipla (plus the super robots in HG line). Its a welcome news really... if they are going to reach to other fanbase who cant afford the hobby or have other important priorities and does not want to spend too much money for it. Nah. These are 2 different toy divisions. Bandai Spirits and Bandai Candy Toys. In fact, Bandai is now releasing more SOC than ever. If you go to the official page, there will be 12 SOC releases in 2019 (7 new molds and 5 replaints). This is the most Bandai has ever released in 1 year. I think all it is, is Bandai cashing in on the super robot popularity trend after SOC GoLion. The fanbase is growing, and Gundam builders are willing to try new things outside of Gundam. You can see this trend because Good Smile is getting into super robot model kits with their Moderoid line, and so is Aoshima now with the upcoming Gunbuster kit. The kits are aimed at people who are on a budget for sure but some of the Super Mini-Pla kits cost more than, or similar to, Super Robot Chogokin (GaoFighGar or Megazord, for example).

Different divisions maybe..but its still bandai. I also said underwhelming.. no matter how many or the number of SOCs they release.. i could say its not worth my attention. Well its just my opinion.. although ofcourse those new releases would definitely appeal to some. i also dont think the gundam fanbase would jump over the super robot lines that easily specially those old mechas they havent watched yet..example the younger fanbase.. as they got more than enough of gundam thingy on in thier own universe.

1800Y doesn't sound quite right, combining SMPs typically run around 5k so don't get your hopes up. And the Option Set is P-Bandai again hahaha Fk That.

If I can't get an item directly from the Premium Bandai site, I sometimes have luck at Nippon Yasan. I'm guessing pre-orders for the exclusives should be up by the end of this week.
