I'd like me a Daimos also, after playing SRW A on my PSP. Never saw his anime yet though, but, just from the exposure in the SRW I could tell he was cool. Then I saw his Soul of Chogokin and knew it to be true! It's a toy company. They make stuff until they lose the license, got nothing left to make, or find that particular subline isn't profitable and scrap it. Hehe. Really? My bad. Though, my statement isn't so far off. He did cannibalize other Getters to repair it. So it sort of made from parts of others. Just more as repair parts, and not, Frankenstein-Getter style. Black Getter is just so frigging badass, that it brings a tear to my eye when I see it. A manly, gar tear!
I want the SoC so badly, it might cut into my TF buying for a while. And in case you're interested: YouTube - Dynamo / Diamos Battle Scene in English
That was awesome, thanks for sharing! I miss the old style mecha shows. Love super robots. I wish there was some more retro style super robot shows around. Much as I love Gundam also (and I do quite love Gundam), I still need more super robot awesomeness! I want the SoC of Daimos also. Leopardon also. Hell, I'd love all the SoC line (and their Gokin competitors too, if only for GaoGaiGar), but damn they're expensive. Daimos SoC looks so awesome, even without seeing the series, I want it. Seeing as next year (well, late 2009 when the movie line comes out) my TF retail purchases will be down to TFA original molds, and a rare few really really good movie figs, I might put that money instead into an SoC or two...or just more Revoltechs that I missed out on so far.
Well I just bought my first Revoltech, hope its as awesome and I hear they can be REVOLTECH 2G - Fate Stay Night ( SABER ) Figure - eBay (item 260327098923 end time Jan-03-09 12:53:26 PST) Sabre from Fate/Stay Night, love the series and I figure its time to start diversifying from Transformers a bit before I just burn out. Hoping to snag some Eva units as well.
If you like Saber, the guys who do Figma did a Figma Saber also. Figma is a nice line as well. The sword is arguably better on FIgma too. Or so I hear. I don't have those figs (never saw the anime).
Have to agree regarding Figma Saber - she's far better than the Revoltech version. Also, the Figma version of Tohsaka Rin is also far better, and she's to scale with Figma Saber - the Frauleim Rin is not to scale with 2G Saber or Saber Alter. (Can't wait for my Figma Saber Lily!) Nice to see someone who likes F/SN and TFs - although I imagine you might not have thought of this idea in the process...
The MSiA series? Or the model kits? The MSiAs are still being made (well, both them and the model kits) but they're no longer being released in America. You can only pick them up in Japan, or from import stores.
Your loss (if they ever make them). I think he came in here to say that MSiA was better than Gundam Revoltechs, then realized that Kaiyodo doesn't make any Gundams, so he said, "well, if they did, they would still be better, so THERE."
You know what would be awesome? A Revoltech Lagann with a little Simon inside. Like, a nini version of the Konami one.
Revoltech homepage has been updated. Enkidudu, and Black King Gainer are featured the front page, which is advertising the 3.0 Reboot. Does that mean they will be wide releases, and not mail away exclusives? I hope so. http://www.kaiyodo.co.jp/revoltech/index.html
Revoltech Fraulein Haruhi looking VERY win. http://www.amiami.com/images/product/main/091/FIG-COL-1199.jpg
She's lacking the big ol' ponytail Yoko was rocking, so that should keep her balanced somewhat. Glad I preordered, she looks awesome. Just need some images of Mikuru and an accessory list, and I'll be sold on her too.
