Getter Robo is in active merchandise circulation, with multiple companies releasing or re-releasing transformable and combining toys and model kits through 2026, alongside the recent death of a key English dub voice actor.
The Getter Robo franchise has been a steady presence in the merchandise pipeline through 2026. The most concentrated activity surrounds the MODEROID Mini Gattai Henshin Getter 1 assembly kit from Good Smile Company. First released in February 2025, this kit combines the Eagle Go, Jaguar Go, and Bear Go machines into Getter 1 with no leftover parts or part swapping, using molded colors, pre-painted parts, and stickers to approximate the anime look. It includes two Getter Tomahawk weapon parts and costs 3,900 yen. The kit entered a second re-release cycle in August 2026, with reservations closing on August 26 and shipping in December 2026.
Outside the MODEROID line, Takara Tomy introduced the TOYRISE Force Getter Robo, a new original design built around full transformation and combination. The set includes Force Eagle, Force Jaguar, and Force Bear plus weapon parts, and is priced at 35,200 yen with reservations closing July 8 and release scheduled for late November 2026. The toy prioritizes physical play and a toy-first approach over strict anime accuracy. FREEing also re-released the Dynamic Change R Getter Robo action figure, a die-cast, fully articulated piece that transforms from three Get Machines into Getter 1, 2, and 3 forms, available on Amazon Japan at 36,300 yen with a December 2026 release.
Embrace Toys added Getter Robo 1 to its Chibi Creature sofubi line in June 2026, depicting the Original Getter Robo 1 from Shin Getter Robo vs. Neo Getter Robo in its damaged New York Final Battle form, priced at 10,780 yen and shipping in September 2026. The franchise also lost a notable voice actor in May 2026: Bill Wise, who voiced Hayato Jin in Getter Robo: Armageddon, died at age 61. His death was reported by the Austin Chronicle on May 5, with his agency and a friend confirming the news earlier that week.
