Bandai Namco Holdings
In October 2019, Bandai Namco Holdings announced plans to acquire Sotsu, a move which would grant the company rights to the entire "Gundam" franchise. The next month, however, Chicago, Illinois-based investment firm RMB Capital forced Bandai Namco to raise the tender offer price for Sotsu in a follow-on tender offer targeted at the general shareholders of Sotsu. On March 1, 2020, Sotsu finally became a fully owned subsidiary of Bandai Namco.
