SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — Premium Bandai will open reservations today at 12 p.m. Japan time for “Seisenshi Dunbine Set 2,” a four-kit bundle that packages Drumlo, Virunvee, Leprechaun and Zwarth into a single order. The set lists at ¥4,400 with a December release in Japan.
For collectors who want multiple enemy Aura Battlers without hunting separate listings, this is the straightforward path. The bundle leans into nostalgia with retro-inspired, full-color boxes that echo the line’s early packaging while keeping modern molding.

Leprechaun’s red body and green torso echo the retro colorway seen across classic box art.
On contents, each subject returns in HG 1/72 format with bio-mechanical styling intact—beetle-like armor, organic curves and clear parts where appropriate. The four-in-one offer complements today’s individual HG reopenings (Dunbine, Tokamak and Todd), but shifts the focus to a cohesive villain lineup.

Drumlo’s stocky silhouette highlights the set’s organic armor and clear wing parts.
Preorders are allocation-limited, and Premium Bandai notes that ordering can close once the allotment is met. As with other PB items, exact store timing can vary by region and portal; Japan lists December delivery, while some overseas PB shops post later windows.

Virunvee in blue demonstrates the HG line’s bio-mechanical surfacing and wing articulation.
Context helps here: Bandai Spirits has used curated bundles to refresh classic Aura Battler Dunbine designs. A first “Set 1” ran in 2024 with a similar noon opening and limited stock, signaling steady demand for shelf-matched boxes and quick display builds.
For builders, the pitch is convenience and presentation—four antagonists in one go, matching boxes, and a single delivery window that reduces the stagger typical of individual PB drops.

Zwarth rounds out the villain lineup with a black finish and long Aura Sword.
What to watch next is simple: today’s noon opening and how quickly stock holds. If you want the set at list price, the earliest path is Premium Bandai Japan, followed by regional portals that mirror the listing on their own calendars.
