Bandai Sets Armored Core VI Assembly Collection Figures for September 21
Armored Core VI's customization sits at the center of the game's appeal, and a cheap candy toy line that reproduces part swapping rather than fixed poses puts that mechanic in the hands of buyers at convenience store prices.

Bandai's candy division is releasing ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON Assembly Collection Vol.01 on September 21, 2026, priced at 1,650 yen tax included. Each box holds one painted PVC mascot with a ball chain and one piece of soda flavor gum. The four types are LOADER 4, Nightfall, Steel Haze, and Milk Tooth, and parts can be swapped to recreate the game's Assembly system.
The figures are deformed PVC mascots, small enough to hang from a ball chain, and each comes with a piece of soda flavor gum in the same box. The point is the joints: parts detach and reattach so the four machines can be broken down and rebuilt, which is the same logic the game uses in its garage. Bandai Candy Division ships them to the confectionery sections of mass retailers nationwide, not to hobby shops alone. The lineup is LOADER 4, Nightfall, Steel Haze, and Milk Tooth, one per box, four types total.
- LOADER 4: First in the four-type lineup
