New Images of Riobot Falcon Armor X + October Release Confirmed


Today, we have a plethora of new images of Sentinel's Riobot Falcon Armor X figure, which has been confirmed to release in October. The final price is 17,000 yen or roughly $155 US.

Whether that's out of your price range or not, you owe it to yourself to check this bad boy out!...




You can find even more images at Hobby Dengeki!

Here's some handy notes:

  • Designed by Eiichi Shimizu (ULTRAMAN, Linebarrels of Iron, Getter Robot Devolution)
  • Includes die-cast metal and transluscent parts in some areas
  • LED-powered Buster (can be turned on/off)
  • Includes interchangeable face parts, interchangeable hands/Buster and display pedestal
  • 6-inches tall
  • October 2020 release

The figure is up for pre-order right now on Ami Ami. More retailers should be adding their own pages soon!

  2. Any word on store-specific bonuses or incentives? If they'll all sell the same, I guess I'll do Ami Ami.

  3. Truforce: "We created a super detailed figure with diecast parts and LED features. It's going to cost about $80. It's a bit pricey, but the cost is justified."

    Sentinel: "Hold my beer."

    1. The TruForce figure was designed and manufactured by Sentinel, so ... Sentinel continues to hold its own beer.

  4. whoa! that looks insane! X's feet definitely sport an unorthodox design, but for some reason, it just feels so right...

    1. BBTS usually ends up being cheaper after shipping, but those who have not shopped there before should know that their advertised release date for imported items is usually 6-8 weeks earlier than when they actually receive the item, and then they ship it to you.
