DANDIVINE
Come forth, Divine Beasts—the invincible giant robot descends!
From the all-new original TV anime "DANDIVINE" comes the complete combining robot toy THE GATTAI DX DANDIVINE, launching alongside the anime broadcast!
This entirely new combining robot was designed and modeled from the ground up by the elite creative team at GOD BRAVE STUDIO. An of the Korean studio handled the mechanical designs for both the toy and anime, and it would be no exaggeration to call GOD BRAVE STUDIO one of today’s leading teams in the field of combining robot design.
Driven by their admiration for Japanese combining robot series, these creators have spent years honing their craft. Now, they have joined forces with Mecha Smile to deliver a new generation of combining robot toys for like-minded robot fans around the world.
The fighter robot DANDE ACE fully combines with three Divine Beasts! This painted plastic, non-scale combining toy stands approximately 9.4 inches tall in its combined form.
The set includes DANDE ACE, SLASH UNICORN, BLAZE GARUDA, MAGNA TITAN, weapons for DANDE ACE, and interchangeable hands. DANDIVINE’s forearms automatically transform through an internal gear mechanism, allowing all four machines to combine without leftover parts. The articulated legs can pull off deep kneeling poses, while gear-driven mechanisms automatically transform both arms and let you swap the hands for concealed Gatling guns. Three feather-like panels on the wings also deploy together through a linked mechanism. Weapons include the UNICORN SABER, formed from SLASH UNICORN’s upper body. Combine it with BLAZE GARUDA’s tail parts to create the larger DANDE BLADE.
"Fifty years of Japanese combining robot aesthetics have been infused with the passion and design of a new generation, creating a robot that feels both traditional and refreshingly new.
No matter how times change, the appeal of combining robots never fades. This is a toy that delivers that unmistakable feeling of, ‘Yes! This is it! This is what I’ve been waiting for!’
There is one more thing we want to share: its ‘hidden possibilities.’
Beyond everything described above, you may discover even more ways to enjoy it once you have it in your hands.
In every era, combining robots have ignited the passion of fans. That timeless sense of excitement is what makes them so special.
We will continue moving this project forward with the hope of transcending borders, creating and having fun together, and carrying the possibilities of combining robots into the future.
Bring it home and join us in the fun." By Hiro Tanaka
