Has anybody spotted the Diamond Select figures at Brick and Mortar stores or have they yet to be given a wide release?

This official article states that Tamashii has indeed plans to include the mass-produced white Drone Jaeger & November Ajax in the ROBOT Spirits line:

Read over on the fwoosh Diamond Select did a Q&A for their Pacific Rim line. They said a 4th series and second kaiju are in the "wait and see" stage.

Sounds good to me, that's a hell of a lot better than a "No" answer.

Which kaiju would you guys want the 2nd vinyl to be? My pick is Raijin - I want a figure of him that can open/close his face plates like in the movie. That, along with better paint detail (and maybe some elbow hinges) would be a big improvement on the the Bandai one. I pick him over Shrikethorn because he hardly did anything in the final battle, mainly just there for the combination*.


*Would still buy him to complete the trio though.

Also I'm friggin HYPED for some Robot Spirits Drone Jaegers! I've been wanting to collect an army builder for a long time, and I think this will be the one I finally go for.

I want the Mega Kaiju. The fact it has no merchandise is a disgrace.

Didn't DST say they would love to go back and do figures from the first film? If so they should totally do Raiju and Slattern as a big "F-U" to NECA.

NECA does not hold the license any more. DST and Bandai can do what they want...

Figures ... the only figure of the Mega Kaiju would be a Chibi.

Nah but from what I know it has no real name, only the Newt's tablet displaying "MegaKaiju".

As far as I can tell "Mega-Kaiju" is the official name, it's what I always see attributed to it.

Personally, I would have gone with "Behemoth"



Another good name is *Pls give us a nice figure of this diamond select*
