Why it matters
The line's stated concepts are martial arts poses that convey a master's presence and the creation of battle scenes, which puts articulation design ahead of the transformation gimmicks ROBOT Spirits usually leads with.

ROBOT Spirits <SIDE MF> Shining Gundam Martial Action is priced at 7,700 yen including tax and is scheduled for May 2027. ROBOT Spirits <SIDE MF> Bolt Gundam Martial Action is priced at 9,900 yen including tax and is scheduled for June 2027. Pre-orders open at general retail stores on November 12, 2026. Shining Gundam stands about 125mm tall and includes four pairs of interchangeable hands, two Beam Sword effect parts, two leg thruster parts, and an interchangeable mask part. Bolt Gundam stands about 130mm tall and includes three pairs of interchangeable hand parts and a Graviton Hammer. Both figures use wrist articulation, hip joints that cross at the thigh, and a pull-out waist for forward bending.
The new line's stated concepts are "martial arts action poses that convey the presence of a master" and "creating battle scenes." Both figures fall under the label, which ties them to G Gundam's Gundam Fight setting.
- Shining Gundam: Domon Kasshu's machine, described as able to trace his martial arts techniques. Battle Mode is recreated by swapping the head parts; Super Mode is reached through swap parts for the head fin, shoulders and calf thrusters.
- Bolt Gundam: piloted by Argo Gulskii, with independent drive engines called Victor Engine in various parts of the body. Its fists-together preparatory pose for the Gaia Crusher uses the shoulder flip-up and forward-leaning gimmicks.
- Shining Finger: a dedicated interchangeable hand part is included for the move.
- Beam Swords: two, one large and one small, with sculpted blades.
- Neck articulation: a pull-out neck base plus a head-side joint swinging from the back of the head, joined by a ball joint.
- Tamashii STAGE: sold separately, and needed for poses such as jumping actions or Bolt Gundam swinging the Graviton Hammer.
Dengeki Hobby Web frames the pair as a set, noting that combining Shining Gundam with Bolt Gundam lets buyers stage their own Gundam Fight. Both are ABS/PVC articulated figures from BANDAI SPIRITS.
