Speaking of Machine Robo,check out what I've found which didn't make it to the final product. しろぐれ on Twitter Here's what the tweet said if anyone wants to translate: マシンロボ クロノスの大逆襲｣のバイカンフーは 3体合身なのが続編でパワーアップして 4体合身の｢ゴージュウオー｣というロボになる案があったそうな。 そしてこれがポシャってバトルハッカーズが生まれたという。 Apparently it says that Rom Stol was meant for an upgrade where Baikanfu can be placed into another robot and another robot for added power in the sequel,most likely Battlehackers but it never came into fruition like Garzack's intended toy. And here's blueprints for not only Devil Satan 6 but also Gardi Stol. Looks like that robot body Gadess forced Galdy in was like a body armor just like Baikanfu and Kenryu before him. Also added in,the Hyribead and the Power Riser scale. Lastly,a mini-manga of Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos. One where Baikanfu beats the hell out of Devil Satan 6/DS6/Dark Schneider 6 with a Thunder Punch: This mini-manga came from this magazine:
Wow. Apparently that upgrade would have been called “Gojuoh.” Kind if glad it didn’t happen because yet another Rom power up is just some ridiculousness I don’t think I could handle. Really disappointed they didn’t make that Galdi though. I mean I would never have owned it had it been made but it would have been great to have something to base an SOC version of it on. Wonder if Bandai would ever do something like that based on the concept art alone.
Well,Reina's next in line to try it since Rom.... (Yeah,they pulled an Optimus Prime killed by Megatron on us. As if that wasn't enough. Spoiler alert. Rom is dead.)
I had a dream last night that someone made a Transformers Devastation style game for Machine Robo. But it let you switch between Japanese Mode and American Mode. When in Japanese Mode, it was full on Machine Robo, with the correct voice actors, sounds, and visuals. When it was in American Mode, they switched to models, voices, and music accurate to Challenge of the Go Bots lol. Characters even switched sides accordingly. It was so weird. Now I want a game that will never, ever exist. Damn subconscious mind!
Well,I still got pictures of resins of the Battlehackers if it counts by Alan Moriguchi. They're still pending but R. Jettan will be released....slowly at the end of this year. Oh well. Even if no one cares or knows about them,they still are my fave designs among the Machine Robo crew. Here some images of some Battlehackers characters. Most which I wish to get. (Note: I don't own any of them except for Power Riser and Jet Riser.)
Well,he was meant to be called 'Drag Sam',the oldest of the Wheelmen from what I've heard in the end of ep. 6 of Battlehackers. Like drag racer. That's how they pronounced him in Japanese. Gotta question the pronunciations by Engrish standards of Japanese sometimes. Lol.
if you're interested hotrod joe and drug (eheheheh ...) sam are actually on sale online at mandarake ...
Thas good. Too bad I don't know how to order things at Mandarake. -_- I'm dumb like that. And I would say (look at 4:25 for the shocking reply XD)
Well,looks like I found another dude who has a Winner Robo with him. Jetter Robo/Jet Winner Robo: 【レビュー】 W-06 ウイナーロボチーム マシンロボ – FREE MODE 玩具・食玩のレビューブログ

Nice. I'm still hoping they'll a Deep Dive somewhere down the line (the only GoBot I had as a kid and I thought it was a Transformer at the time)
Nice. So excited for all of these. Curious that Blue Jet and supercar are unpainted since painted ones have appeared at previous shows. Maybe these prototypes have some updates compared to the ones we’ve seen before? Where is R Jettan though, he’s listed as being there but I don’t see him in any of the pics?
F**cking hell, Blue Jet is back to grey proto stage? Is Action Toys actively trying to torture me now? Also curious about that post mentioning Arjettan. That’s a dream figure for me, would be nice to see it.
lol yea you can wait on that until after blue jet.....he had a color prototype when this line began. DX stuff just started
