Bandai Print Schedule: 2023-Q2

Bandai is printing 278 items in Q2 2023 – read on to find out what’s tentatively on the list for production! For those in North America, we’ll start to see allocated items show up typically 6-8 weeks after they’re printed. Items listed below were solicited to retailers for orders and are not confirmed production so not everything below may actually be printed. Additionally, Items being printed/resold in Japan does not guarantee that they’ll receive overseas allocation – so we may not see all these items or they might show up in low volume.

New Items

The two biggest new items for Q2 are the MG Zeta Ver Ka and the Full Mechanics Gundam Aerial – the 20th anniversary Ver Ka and first 1/100 Witch From Mercury kit respectively. Both promise to be huge sellers and look fantastic in the early looks we’ve seen of them. Past that, we have even !more HG Witch From Mercury kits, a brand new Guncannon kit based on it’s design in Cucuruz Doan’s Island, and more!

Notable Reprints

Reprint wise, Q2 is relatively quiet – there’s nothing significant that’s being reprinted after a long time but Bandai is continuing to work their way thru their SD, Pokepla, and 30MM/30MS catalogs reprinting items. Witch From Mercury also continues to see significant reprints continuing across Q2 – by the end of Q2 HG Aerial, Figure-Rise Suletta, and Figure-Rise Miorine all will have been reprinted for 5 out of the 6 months of the year.
