Bandai is a far bigger company than King Arts. I remember a while ago even Artstorm/Fewture was struggling to survive. Promoting something great, like Grendizer can be overshadowed by another Grendizer from a bigger company like Bandai. And at those price point, most will buy only one. So it may be a tough sale.
But back to topic, I do hope King Arts do release this. I just wish the exclusive version was more widely availlable

lol my whole point is why they will lose time and money on promotions if they wont release the product at the end ? good example look at the GX-76 Grendizer DC, first they showed the figure, then the figure with the Spazer, then a promo video that have a teaser for the GX-76X2 at the end and 1 month later we have them all, its just a matter of time and feedback that is not always true man, even with Bandai... did you forget how many SRC figures they showed a color prototype of but never got released? including tetsujin 28 FX ! they wasted time and money and showed a colored prototype and that was it ! never out Indeed, I imagine it's not like they're printing books : there's a huge step between manually painting a 3D printed prototype and giving the green light to a mass production run with everything it implies. You cannot dumb this down to a simple "it's already done anyway, so they might as well do it". It's much more complex (and potentially costly) than this.

all of you guys made great points, true alot of SRCs never saw the light again sadly
but think again, we didn't see any promotion photos for most of them not to mention we only saw them ones and it was the same exact pictures every where online, so it might be a leak from one of the employees, for something they didn't have any intention to release anytime soon in the first place, on top of that the feedback about that figures wasn't good enough for them to actually produce it
example the SRC God Sigma and SRC God Mars both were on display on the exact same time yet we only got God Sigma, why is that ?
because the feedback on God Sigma was better than God Mars, and when they saw that God Sigma sales isn't strong enough they axed god naturally
with the Sentinel Grendizer its a different story tho
promo photos, checked
displayed more than ones in different places, checked
it just a matter if time for them to release it, Sentinel take about a year to release a figure, just like Shin Getter 1

The TFO, Koji's little yellow flying saucer. And that's it, I think.

Yes that is the only thing. My main collection is Grendizer, so that is why I want the exclusive. But it's not worth the extra money to be honest

Denden Hobby said they aren't sure about the EXCLUSIVE ver. after displaying it longtime for pre order. I also heard bad stories regarding lost shipments and tefund manipulation from Dennis who runs Denden Hobby.

Glad to hear you are happy with it. Can you elaborate a bit on this? I’m on the fence here, the pictures I’ve seen look amazing but I’m curious about any QC issues, metal content and possible loose joints. Any insight you could give would be great.
