30MM Option Parts Set 21 (Multi Missile 1) launches in Japan

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. - Bandai Spirits released the 30 MINUTES MISSIONS Option Parts Set 21 (Multi Missile 1) in Japan on Saturday, Aug. 30. The general-retail set lists at ¥968 and targets builders who want modular firepower without committing to a full vehicle or frame.

The parts are designed for quick configuration. Missiles come as recombinable units, and the included smoke effects let you stage launches with arcing flight paths. A pair of pylons mounts to 3 mm hard points on backpacks or armor, while two grips convert the pylon into a portable launcher for hand-held poses.

Modular design lets you recombine segments to create different missile types.

Out of the box, the set covers common use cases: a four-tube turret build for base defense scenes, a shoulder-mounted rack for assault looks, or a hand-carried launcher for infantry-scale suits. The small part count keeps assembly fast, which makes it a good “palette cleanser” between full kits.

Compatibility remains the hook for 30MM. The missile pack plays nicely with existing EXM bodies and earlier EAV/OP releases; kitbashers can pull just the effects for other scales or fold the pylons into custom hard-points. If you’re already experimenting with this morning’s bike-style EAV, the pylon geometry gives you another mounting option along the chassis.

Because this is standard retail in Japan, expect broad domestic availability at hobby chains and major e-commerce sites. In the U.S., these sets usually appear at partner retailers once distributor allocations land; several stores are already marking listings as “incoming” or “coming soon.”

As always, paint is optional. The parts are molded in neutral colors with stamped detail deep enough to take panel lining, so quick builders can go straight from runner to display.
