To date, Bandai has only reproduced the Typhoon from their predecessors.ĭue to the quality of the toys and versatility of features for the belts, the DX line is considered the flagship of the Bandai belt toy-lines and is the most popular, holding record sales in some cases and being the winner of several Japan Toy Awards.

The series was discontinued after Popy was absorbed back into Bandai and the toyline was succeeded by a Bandai toyline with a similar name. While the DX line from Popy was simple and minimalistic by today's standards, the toys were innovative in their era as they had motorized flashing lights that accurately simulated a belt's activation sequence during transformation and were made with die cast chrome around the buckle.
