Soul of Chogokin "The Brave Fighter Exkaiser - King Exkaiser" Returned for Redesign of Sculpt and Mechanisms; Commercialization Further Postponed

TAMASHII NATIONS, the collector's toy division of Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS Co., Ltd., recently announced that the highly anticipated new release from "The Brave Fighter Exkaiser," "King Exkaiser," which has had its prototypes exhibited multiple times, will be returned to the design and development stage. This involves revamping the existing overall sculpt, mechanisms, and body proportions, with the release date remaining undetermined.

The leader of the Space Police Kaisers, "Exkaiser," was originally an energy lifeform without a physical body. After coming to Earth to pursue space pirates, he merged with the protagonist Hoshikawa family's supercar, becoming a combat robot with transformation capabilities. When Exkaiser summons the support machine "King Roader" from another dimension, he can combine with it to form King Exkaiser.

The "Soul of Chogokin King Exkaiser" first debuted at "TAMASHII NATION ONLINE 2021" held in 2021. Subsequently, a prototype of the "Dragon Jet," which can further combine with King Exkaiser to form Ultimate Exkaiser, was exhibited at "TAMASHII NATION 2022" in 2022. However, the combination mechanism of King Exkaiser and Dragon Jet could not adequately account for the range of joint articulation, resulting in the entire design needing to be readjusted.
