The Metal Robot Damashii line has been active through late summer 2026, with Bandai Spirits announcing and opening orders for several premium Gundam figures. In August, the Destiny Gundam SpecII Final Battle Ver. was revealed as a commemorative product for TAMASHII NATION 2026, priced at 25,300 yen. It reproduces the mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM, with die-cast parts at the elbows and knees plated to glow red during the final battle, and includes Wings of Light effect parts. The figure stands about 140mm tall with a wingspan of about 400mm. Sales started with CLUB TAMASHII MEMBERS advance sales, followed by lotteries.
The same month, Bandai Spirits opened reservations for two Metal Robot Soul figures from the Gundam x hololive collaboration: the Nu Gundam [Sakura Miko Ver.] and the Sazabi [Hoshimachi Suisei Ver.], both shipping in January 2027. The company also announced a re-release of the Nu Gundam from Char's Counterattack for March 2027, with preorders opening September 1. Around the same time, the 30th anniversary of After War Gundam X led to the confirmation of a Metal Robot Damashii Gundam Double X figure, with a painted prototype shown during an anniversary program.
Preorders for the Gundam Double X opened September 4, 2026 at 24,200 yen, shipping February 2027. The figure updates the 2013 Robot Damashii version with die-cast parts and detailed paint. The line continues to span multiple Gundam series, from Char's Counterattack to Gundam X to SEED FREEDOM, often with event-tied releases and premium pricing.
