Bandai is awesome... In Asia. why? I liked the brand when I was still in the Philippines because what we get there was from Japan and the US (In case of PR, Digimon and Ben 10 toys), and since Bandai has Sentai, KR, Ultraman, Gundam and More, I can safely say this is the no.1 and the best toymaker in the world.

Oh, a question- did Bandai have connections to Mattel? (Because Bandai exported their ChoGoKin toys in the 70's to Mattel as the Shogun Warriors series) cuz if they still have connections with Mattel, I bet Bandai in Japan distributes the HSM dolls made by Mattel. even Bandai made Barbie-branded gashapons. (with Mattel's permission)

That said, I wish Bandai are in charge of making/distributing Disney Channel-based items in Japan, since that's one thing TakaraTomy doesn't do.

ALL HAIL BANDAI!!!

Had I suppose, but not anymore. Bandai relies mainly on Bandai of America and Bandai Creation for Western products. And they did recently strike up a deal with Toynami for distribution of collector-oriented lines in the States.

Um what I mean is if Bandai have relations with Mattel in Japan.

BoA is good for the figures but BoJ is best for everything else.

The pre Saban BOA toy products were awesome,Disney era not so much,although the PR action figures have improve very well without the muscles as well the super legends series.

BOJ good quality as they always been,But very expensive.
