SNACK three-line summary
- Pre-orders for THE GATTAI DX Dandevain and the MODEROID Dandevain Action Model run from June 12 to July 22, and both are scheduled for release in October 2026.
- The completed DX item is 29,500 yen, while the MODEROID kit is 5,500 yen, making the price gap substantial.
- The clearest point in this morning lane is that collectors now have both a completed combining toy and a build-it-yourself action model to choose from at the same time.
Snackgirls editor note
Red: “This one works well as the representative morning slot because it lets readers immediately compare how the same Dandevain splits between a completed combining toy and an assembly model.”
AIKO: “The official pages line up the key numbers neatly before purchase: 29,500 yen and 5,500 yen, the pre-order deadline of July 22, and the planned release in October 2026.”
Kirari: “Even from the photos, the feel is clearly different: whether you want a large completed item for display, or a kit you build by hand and pose for action. That said, since this is not yet at the stage of including domestic retailer guidance, it still looks worth checking the total cost and ordering route again.”
Good Smile Company has opened pre-orders for two “Dandevain” products at the same time. THE GATTAI DX Dandevain is a completed combining toy, while the MODEROID Dandevain Action Model is an assembly plastic model. The key point of this article is that the same robot can be chosen in two different styles, with price, size, and the pre-order deadline all checkable at once on the official pages.
Pre-order period and the numbers that stand out first on the official pages
According to Good Smile Company’s official product pages, pre-orders for both items run from June 12 to July 22, 2026. HOBBY Watch’s same-day article also confirms this flow, so this news is closer to practical information with the pre-order window and planned release month already set than a simple teaser.
The completed DX item is 29,500 yen, and the MODEROID kit is 5,500 yen. Both are listed as scheduled for release in October 2026 with a limit of three per person, so the first figures to check at this stage are the price difference and the deadline.
How THE GATTAI and MODEROID differ
As described on the official page, THE GATTAI DX Dandevain is a non-scale completed combining toy. Dandeace and three Divine Beasts combine fully, and the height when combined is listed at approximately 240 mm, putting it closer to a “main completed item to display at size.”
By contrast, the MODEROID Dandevain Action Model is a non-scale assembly plastic model with a height of approximately 130 mm. The official description says it is a kit that removes the combining and transformation gimmicks and focuses on action, making it better suited to readers who want to build it easily and enjoy posing it.
What should domestic readers compare first?
Within the scope checked for this article, Korean retailers and domestic pricing notices were not confirmed together. At this stage, the realistic approach is to first decide whether you want a completed display-style item or a model you assemble yourself, then add overseas shipping and the total cost.
The simplest comparison points are budget and display style. Choosing becomes much easier once you separate whether the presence of the 29,500 yen completed combining toy matters more, or whether the accessibility of the 5,500 yen assembly action model is the priority.
