The entire DVD release schedule:

The kanji after Vol.13 says "Final Volume". If you assume 4 episodes per DVD, this suggests the show will run for a full 52 episodes.

The last few weeks have got really good. Episode 16 was really gritty, and the whole episode felt really slick and polished. Episode 17 was another great one, and pretty serious as far as MEBIUS goes. I think they've finally got the swing of this show, and I only hope they can keep it up! I like that Ryu finally acknowledged Sakomizu as "captain" at the end. From the preview, it looks like Mebius has a new transformation for Episode 18 too!

*EPISODE 17 SPOILER*

Here's Hikari's departure (for now -- I guess he'll come back one day!). Very cool moment, I thought. I love the music in this show too, I'm going to buy the OST for sure...

I agree! While I did enjoy episodes 12, 13, 14 and 15, it did seem a little like the series had lost some focus. But 17 has really restored my faith in Moebius!

SHUWATCH!

So far, we've got two confirmed Maquette Monsters - Mikuras and Windam. Mikuras got its upgrade already, the addition of electric powers, and is otherwise similar in appearance. Windam is supposed to get an elemental upgrade of some kind, and will become Fire Windam (a toy's slated for release in the future).

There's also Rim-Eleking, a cute miniaturized Eleking. It has the same one-minute limitation, but its size and lack of power clearly make it useless for battle. Its appearance was so its DNA could be incorporated into Mikuras (the electric powers, of course). No idea if it'll be a fully-grown Maquette Monster later in the series or not.

Something should happen with Zetton in the future. A Bandai promotion, the upcoming release of an electronic Zetton figure, and a clear green Maquette capsule (Maquette Monster sets include many characters, but only the clear green ones represent monsters that can be used by GUYS - and Zetton was the fourth) all hint at something to do with him.

Baltan? Nah. His toy capsule was a solid painted figure, just used to interact with the toy version of that handheld comm device like other non-Maquette characters. Other figures like that include Red King, Birdon, Gudon, Twintail, Gomora, and others. None will be Maquettes.

Dada is an interesting case. There's a promotional giveaway for the Ultraman Festival 2006 - a clear green Dada capsule. The choice of character is an odd one, but why release what might be a show character's toy in that form only, and as a promotional figure to boot? Jury's definitely out on that one.
