Sentinel Unveils New Riobot RaiOh Toy From ‘Super Robot Wars Alpha 3’

For decades, Super Robot Wars fans have coveted the colossal combo mecha RaiOh—now a stunning collector-grade figure is finally on the way. Sentinel, the Japanese high-end toy maker, announced at a June 2026 industry event the Riobot RaiOh, a fully articulated, die-cast action figure based on the original generation mecha from Super Robot Wars Alpha 3. The toy is scheduled for pre-order in late 2026 and represents the first time this iconic design has been turned into a premium, transformable figure. RaiOh is among the most popular original-generation mecha from Banpresto's tactical RPG series, known for combining two smaller robots into a single powerful unit. Super Robot Wars fans have long requested a high-quality figure, and Sentinel's Riobot line—famous for intricate engineering and metal construction—fills that gap. The RaiOh figure stands approximately 20 centimeters tall, features over 50 points of articulation, and includes die-cast metal parts for weight and durability. It comes with multiple optional weapons and effect parts to replicate the 'RaiBurst' special attack from the game. Pricing is set at ¥38,000 (roughly $265 USD), placing it in the premium collectible segment. Sentinel is known for limited production runs; previous Riobot releases have tripled in aftermarket value within months. The announcement taps into a growing market for premium robot collectibles, with Super Robot Wars maintaining a dedicated global fanbase two decades after Alpha 3's release. While no exact street date has been given, pre-orders are expected to open in Q4 2026, with shipping in early 2027. Collectors should expect rapid sellouts, and more images and demonstration videos are likely to emerge at upcoming toy conventions in Japan and the U.S.
