The latest Gashapon news...

Preorder has opened for the two new Zeonic mobile armors we were teased with last week.

Senshi Forte EX 06 : NZ-333 Alpha Azieru

The Alpha Azieru will stand 21 centimers tall and can also morph into its high speed ferry mode (through parts replacement rather than transformation). So... does that mean I feel completist enough to purchase two? I guess the market price will decide. The Alpha Azieru is scheduled for delivery in July and will cost ¥5184 when purchased through P-Bandai. Also teased for Senshi Forte volume 09 are the RX-93 Nu Gundam and the RGM-89 Jegan. Bandai are currently also evaluating whether to put the RGZ-91 Re-GZ into the line-up of a future set as well.

Mobile Suit Ensemble EX 11 : Apsalus II

The other big honcho is of course the Apsalus II. The new promotional shots make it clear that the figure will not just be a static mobile armor design, but it will actually contain a compartment for the test type Zaku mobile suit held within. Just like those 1980s Star Wars toys we used to play with... :)  Option parts are also included to create the Apsalus I (which is basically the same figure without the mega particle cannon). These gimmicks make this figure even more interesting and it looks to be a fun thing to pick up.

The Apsalus II is also slotted for release in July and the price will be slightly lower than that of the Alpha Azieru coming in at ¥4860. The P-Bandai page is here.
