The illustration shows the mobile suit face-on with its four binders spread wide and funnels deployed in all directions. The Kshatriya is the first non-Gundam-type kit in the MGSD line. It ships on September 26, 2026, priced at 7,700 yen including tax, with beam sabers and marking stickers.","whyItMatters":"MGSD has so far only carried Gundam-type suits, so putting a bulky non-Gundam antagonist from Gundam UC into the line tests whether the SD high-end format can hold a machine built around four large binders.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Kshatriya is not a Gundam, and MGSD has until now been a Gundam-type line. That makes the kit\u0026#39;s four binders the real test: they are sculpted on the inside as well, where the funnels sit, so the box art can show them opened in every direction rather than folded flat. Bandai Spirits Hobby Division is selling the kit for 7,700 yen including tax, with beam sabers and marking stickers in the box. The release date is September 26, 2026.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"MGSD Kshatriya is the line's first kit that is not a Gundam-type.

The box art is the easy part. What Bandai Spirits Hobby Division is really testing is whether MGSD's chunky proportions and gimmicks hold up on a 24-meter antagonist instead of a protagonist frame.","newsletterBlurb":"Bandai Spirits Hobby Division has revealed the package art for the MGSD Kshatriya, drawn face-on with binders spread and funnels deployed. The kit is the first non-Gundam-type entry in the MGSD line, which condenses MG technology into SD form.
