Mobile Fighter G Gundam model kits are in active re-release circulation through Premium Bandai in 2026, including second-batch production of the Gundam Spiegel kit and reissues of other HG and RG kits. A mechanical designer art collection tied to the series is also being reprinted.
Premium Bandai is working through a broad slate of Mobile Fighter G Gundam kit re-releases in 2026, driven by sustained demand for the series' designs. The most direct signal is the second batch of the HG 1/144 Gundam Spiegel, which opened for preorder in June 2026 after an initial run sold out. That kit includes a rotating base that recreates the Sturm und Drang special move and scroll parts designed by series director Yasuhiro Imagawa, tying the release directly to the original production. Shipping is scheduled for October 2026 at 3,740 yen.
The re-release wave extends beyond that single kit. In August 2026, Premium Bandai opened reservations for 11 other-series HG kits, including G Gundam's Mandala Gundam, Gundam Maxter, and Gundam Rose, with shipments starting November 2026. A separate lottery sale running August 3 to August 10 reissued seven Real Grade kits, among them the God Gundam from Mobile Fighter G Gundam, with winners announced August 24 and shipments planned for September. Together these moves show Premium Bandai drawing G Gundam kits back into regular production rather than leaving them as one-off commemorative items.
The print side of the franchise is also getting attention. Hobby Japan is reprinting the Hirotoshi Sano Gundam Art Collection: EDGE of GUNDAM on August 7, 2026, a book of illustrations by mechanical animation director Hirotoshi Sano that originally appeared 25 years ago. Pre-orders opened at the Post Hobby Web Shop and Yodobashi Camera stores. The reprint, alongside the kit reissues, keeps G Gundam visible in the collector market nearly three decades after the series aired, though none of the stories announce any new animation or media for the franchise itself.
