Bandai Spirits is adding two Char's Counterattack mechs to its METAL ROBOT figure line with Hololive color schemes. The Nu Gundam gets Sakura Miko's colors and the Sazabi gets Hoshimachi Suisei's, both as special collaboration versions with die-cast parts, collaboration markings on the shields, and dedicated bases. Pre-orders run at the Soul Web Store on Premium Bandai until September 27, 23:00. The Nu Gundam is 24,200 yen, the Sazabi 28,600 yen, with shipping scheduled for January 2027.
Each set is loaded with the standard Char's Counterattack armament. The Nu Gundam includes fin funnels, a beam rifle, a beam saber, and a new hyper bazooka; the Sazabi brings its beam shot rifle, beam tomahawk, and six deployed funnels. The Nu Gundam stands about 150mm tall, the Sazabi about 160mm. The die-cast parts laid out across the joints are meant to give the mechs weight and a premium feel, and the shields carry special collaboration markings. The release suggests displaying the two side by side to get the full effect of the collaboration.
