Q: What is the limited version of SOC GX-31 Voltes V?
A: Our suppliers informed us that SOC GX-31 V5 limited version will include a black Combattler V MSIA style figure, same with the SOC GX-01R Mazinger Z released a few years ago.
Q: Will there be a R (renewal) version? a Black version?
A: Bandai has only made R (renewal) versions of any recent SOCs. R versions are only for the older SOC units like Mazinger, Great Mazinger, Gaiking which has design problems. Bandai has perfected their engineering skills and a SOC V5 GX-31R is very unlikely. Bandai has stopped making Black versions, thier last release was GX-10B Bossborot.
Q: Will there be a big falcon base?
A: Bandai has not made anymore bases for any SOC toy since GX-01X Base.
Q: How big is it? Is it made of diecast metal? Is it as good as the vintage heavy diecast 12" Voltes V?
A: Base on photo, it should stand 9+ inches tall, diecast content is around 70% of the whole toy. The toy maybe smaller but the detail, articulation and scale is much better!
Q: Why isn't SOC GX-31 Voltes V released in 12" size like the vintage Voltes V?
A: Bandai has to keep SOC GX-31 Voltes V at a reasonable price for everyone, make the toy too big, it would be too expensive and out of reach for majority of toy enthusiast.
