I'm in. I really like the black wing design... I was thinking about getting the metamorforce one, it won't work with my dancouga but I think black wing is a really nice piece on it's own.

Looks leagues better than Bandai's Dancouga even in a line rendering.

Dang. This guy looks leaps ahead of their old Dancouga.
I dunno. I kinda like my Sentinel stuff a bit much to wanna bite so soon.

Im happy for bros who wants this.
And really love that Bandai is really pressing on with "lesser known" characters.
But For me
I am GLAD my wallet is finally going to get a well deserved rest...unless Bandai decides to early release SOC DaiShogun.

I'm loving the proportions on Blackwing here. A Dancouga 2.0 from Bandai would also be cool.

Whelp. I guess I may have some Spring Cleaning Sales done soon if that is the case.

I don't think they would've bothered with the Renewal if that were the case, TBH. I was thinking the exact opposite. Using the Renewal as one last time profiting from the mold before retiring it. Let Black Wing lead the sales to fit the old GX-13 or R. Then another year or two later, roll out the much better Dancouga 2.0 also compatible, paired with Black Wing reissue or recolor matches Dancouga 2.0 colors better. All that profit potential, all those double dipping Of course, all that is just my random speculations, but kind of make business sense for Bandai to do so.

To each their own but giving the buying market even less of a reason to buy a planned product by giving them an iteration of the character makes no business sense to me. People buying multiples isn't a norm at all and is dependant on a niche buying habit exhibited by a small percentage of a niche community. Whatever happens though I'm in with Dancouga being my favorite.

Dancouga will celebrate it's 35th anniversary this April, I wonder if a new Dancougar will be designed or at the very least a re-designed Big Moth.

It won't be the first time Bandai did a cash grab on an old design before cutting loose with an improved version. Probably won't happen right away, but in a year or two? I wouldn't be surprised at all. I've seen it before. Also, while they're not Bandai, Takara has shown a willingness to double-dip on characters, like with MP Bee and Prime, not long after reissuing the previous versions. Those are important characters, but companies will do whatever they think makes money. Collectors upgrade their collections all the time. And not a few of them are full-blown hoarders. If Black Wing sells well, Bandai make take that as motivation to invest in a new Dancouga.
