    He looks kinda chunky. I think it does look pretty cool. And it should have some crazy good articulation too.

    i'm sorry sir, but as owners of mega pvs and ths02 and a revoltech, you do not know what youre talking abt.

    you may have a point with ths02, but the mega scfs, despite the generous amount of joints do not pose well. also, while revoltechs are light, the plastic/paint finish is outstanding. they look like metal.

    revoltech's engineering is truly unique and if you have not had a reason to pick it up this is your queue.

    ...unless you REALLY hate boobimus prime.

    Pretty cool. Looks like December is just the one new release, Dougram's Soltic H8 "Ka-someoneorother" version. I guess then Convoy and Giant Robo will follow in January and then February will be the two others previously shown, Getter 3 and Maizinkaiser.

    Organic Hobby has another line of poseable pvc type toys that includes many of the Brave series robots. Anyone have those?

    That is cool. I'll have to check out Black Lagoon, I'm kind of ignorant as to what that's about.

    Looking at your Revy gallery made me want a Revolvtech Prime and Megatron twice as much.

    Nice. Thanks!

    The Revy is really tempting and if they make a Megatron to go with Prime they got me. There's also a Mazinkeiser in the works that looks killer.

    Just a little note, anyone expecting the chest to open to accept the Matrix will be sorely dissapointed.
    Revoltech figures have no gimmicks whatsoever save for their impressive articulation.

    Oh, they're for January? Not that bad, but prolonging the Mazinkaiser goodness is just plain mean.

    I assume they're January. HLJ adds the new preorders for each month altogether, December's have just gone up and I've not seen the other two coloured yet, so I'm following that line of logic. I might be mistaken of course.

    As for the Brave robots, I have an idea of which ones you mean. They're not made by Kaiyado, if they're the ones I think you mean (Exkaiser X Fighbird and GaoGaiGo, right?) they're the CMs ones.

    Link?

    There's only really two lines of poseable PVC Brave robots, one of those has only just started and the other is getting on a bit and is probably out of production by now so I'm a little confused by what you're talking about?

    CMs has actually done most of the Brave robots, to be fair, but many of them were DVD exclusives. those wouldn't be distributed by Organic Hobby since the DVDs were a limited run (a pity, as were they more widely available and a shade cheaper I'd have got them. Japanese or not, I'd figure it out!)

    Yeah, I wasn't going to count those, from the looks of things CM's is trying to smash their own previous work into the ground anyway.
