Bandai is definitely high for its fiscal year. It has been reported in the Nihon Keizai Shimbun paper that Namco Bandai Holdings is targeting 60 billion yen in sales from the Gundam franchise.
Does it means that they will be making the platinum gundam and offering them up for sale? That will definitely help them hit the target way faster =P
Anyway, seems like they will be banking on Mobile Suit Gundam 00, which is schedule to air in October, to continue to bring them similing to the bank with big bucks.
