As we reported a while back, Bandai’s new flagship Super Robot Chogokin toyline has received its first entry in the form of Mazinger Z (as lovingly photographed over at R-Side). In addition, the Tamashii Festival has been in full swing showing off Bandai’s upcoming toy wares. Amongst them was the rather brutal looking Mazinkaiser SKL, from the upcoming series of the same name (with its latest promo here).
In any case, considering Mazinger’s formative influence on the Super Robot Wars games not to mention the fact that said Original Generation mecha (such as the Alteisen and Cybuster) will also be receiving Super Robot Chogokin renditions in the near future, means that this new Bandai toyline is worth keeping a gaming eye on.
*nerdgasm’d to Mazinkaiser SKL promo* Did not know about this!
At first, the Super Robot Chogokin line doesn’t entice me that much as I already collects Revoltech Yamaguchi robots. But frankly speaking, the polished metal look and the fact that every one of the planned SRC line figures are not in the Revoltech line up (or even planned), I’m starting to sway towards it.
