they will reveal the first characters in the upcoming Tamashii Nation event on the 26th of the next month (October)
what you think this new line will be for ?
my guessing is it will be for the human characters (pilots) like Kouji Kabuto

It is interesting. I wouldn't mind see a line of pilots and support characters.

Hey guys, Along with Chogokin Cars (Blue version), I bought Deadpool. It's at HLJ and will do my "humble" review when it arrives in around....two months....
Meanwhile here's a one video review I could find. Please be nice to "the hand." Teehee.

Pass for me. Not quite sure who the target demographic is for these. This for people who want that vintage early Popy GA-01 aesthetic but want the blend of modern characters and properties. Looks meh if you ask me. |

KUMA STYLE is good but the hand w marker eyes throwing the box around in the kitchen is great 😉m Btw where did you find they for $6? I’d buy the whole line for that price |

Well, Along with Chogoin McQueen (Cars, blue ver.), i got Ronin and Deadpool...
All of them nobody I know wanted, so I will def report in when I get them within a week.
I just paid for shipping with HLJ today and seems around $50 is the average expectant ship fee from Japan for "an average" SOC box...ESM BTW.

LOL. Def not for source accuracy nor a good proportion seeking bros.
Although...i was thinking it might been cool to see Chogokin Heroes based on "Game of Thrones" characters. Aria, Mountain, Tyron, Cersi anyone?
Guess it will never happen since these are NOT moving....but I still want Falcon, and End Game Iron Man

 Hello Bros. Here’s a very rare review that not too many people want haha. I just got Ronin and Deadpool and here is my humble review. Pros A perfect paint job with a perfect decal app. Larger and heavier then it looks. The body and entire legs are diecast. ( including feet). That’s more then half in metal, a true Gokin. Articulation is better then it looks. Shoulders, knees and hips rotate 360. Elbows bend a bit more then 90.The Head on Deadeadpool rotates. Ronin’s Head does not turn but his Matt black paint is awesome! Cut joint above the elbow also rotate. It’s pretty cute in person. Cons Right away I noticed spruce mark on upper arms. Bandai should have put couple more joints on this line...an abcrunch and hips. Bend on knees would have been cool too. That would have made a huge improvement on the entire line. Ugly stupid puffy shoulder sculp....WTF. Along with couple of clicky joints, and resculpted shoulders, this line could have succeeded. The interchangeable generic base is REALLY basic and has a nameplate sticker you can put on if you want to. A final thought As cute as it is, unless youRe a diehard fan of the character, I’d wait till it goes on a clearance bin. I paid around $40 to $50 total for both. I might pick up Endgame Ironman and Falcon WHEN they go on a half off sale. I think $20 a piece for these guys are a fair price. ( disclaimer: Just for the record, I shot this photo with iPad 6thgen and not with a potato) |

Thanks S.
I’ll tell you, between us, I now see where SOC McQueen failed.
The wheels don’t roll well....UNLESS you position the base arm built in to the undercarriage perfectly out of the way.

I have several of these, and I honestly like the line. But you need a few to make any kind of interesting display. And I get them cheap and used from Mandarake. Lol
