Wow, those are nice! I was expecting some Knights Kingdom style
POOP-figures, but these look like they’re totally brick-built. Are they
going to be available outside of Japan?

At least one of the members of the Bloks Forum
avidly pursues Mega Bloks sets chiefly available in Asia, and I’m sure that
he’ll put himself on the case as soon as he gets wind of it. Stop by that
forum from time to time for the latest news that he (and the rest of us Mega
Bloks fans can dredge up!)
Hard to say for sure that MEGA Brands Inc will do--some of the Bandai stuff
makes it to North America, but some doesn’t. I’m guessing that there’s
enough of a market in the US that they might consider releasing them here,
especially since they don’t currently have any new sets in their Blok-Bots
line.

It’s really hard to say. The Gundam franchise has NOT done well here in the US
for a number of years; the MSiA and model kit lines have all been sighted
frequently at clearance stores. The anime series themselves haven’t even sold
to Bandai’s satisfaction, as I understand it. MegaBloks may not want to risk
it; on the other hand, it may even give the Gundam franchise a jumpstart here.
