Weird thing will be try to chase one, let’s not talk about even two.... hopefully it doesn’t turn out to be a mortal Kombat street fight type of pre o .... let’s look at golion it’s was gone in matter of seconds ... I don't anticipate a struggle to pre-order this. The original 2016 Golion release did not sell out immediately. It was available for weeks, if not a few months at both US retailers and retailers abroad. Yes, this current 2019 reissue of Golion did sell out in minutes, but I do not foresee GX-88 having the same demand or selling out as quickly, because most Voltron fans adore Golion and many still dislike and are prejudiced against Dairugger XV. Unless Bandai purposely produces GX-88 far less in numbers, then that's the only way I see it selling out in minutes.  I Love these Quote. Very optimistic thinking! "No struggle for GX-88 Pre-order". But unfortunately, that's not happening. 
See those scalpers out there? This SOC is brand new release and under very popular brand, BANDAI. This is Money, mate! Money!
Even if Dairugger is not as popular as Voltron, that's a lot better for scalpers. It means, chance of reissue is slim or none.  |

the original 2016 GX-71 put Bandai on the map not alot of people knew about SOC line or even Bandai
but now its exactly like 2pac song (all eyes on me)
i think we will need alot of work just to get one figure thats (if) you are lucky bro

I'm hoping that Dairugger when combined is the same size(God Sigma height preferably) or slightly shorter then Golion. Only because in the fleet of doom movie while relatively the same size, Golion was slightly taller then dairugger (hard to tell probably) but also on both specs of each robot, Golion is at 197 meters while Dairugger is 195 meters.

Now that Golion is out of the way for some of us, I am ready to see XV getting more attention. Hopefully we can see a great product and we all can preorder one or two of this badboy! I know I am so let’s see what Bandai has to offer. |

my prediction for the pre orders, it would not be as bad as reissue Voltron, but hey, let us see during PO night |

I meant to say ft tall instead of meters, my bad. You were right. According to Wikipedia: "Golion is 60 meters (197 ft) tall, and weighs 772 tons". |

Even for Super Robot Standards. The Megazord from Power Rangers was like 41.7 meters. I checked and had to readjust the height. |

I think the Big Reveal will be at Comic-Con. Wasn’t that where they first showed off GX-71?

With the announcement of GX-88, I wonder if Bandai will give us a Dairugger Minipla model kit just like the same flavor of the Golion model kit.
