Hi all, a little help please...I dont know anything about Rihio, but as a huge fan of Diaclone, Action Fleet, and Snap Ships I definitely want these pilots! So can someone please clarify this for me, or please correct me if I am wrong here: It appears that there are 3 sets of pilots containing 15 pilots each. One set is red pilots, one is blue, and one is yellow. And Show Z Store is only selling these as a bundle of all three sets. Is that correct??? If so, is there another place to buy each set individually? Thanks in advance for clarifying this!!!
There are multiple colors (main and accent colors) in each box but everything else is accurate. Ebay for single boxes if they are still available.
Thanks so much for confirming. There's nothing on ebay and I just don't want the yellow pilots. So if anyone figures out where I can get some single packs of red and blue pilots please let me know! Nothing on ebay currently
Are you already using Taobao? Their official shop are selling the 15pax sets separately and also 5pax single color runners separately. https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=623734052740 Note that the 15pax sets aren't entirely Red/Yellow/Blue but Red/Yellow/Blue with two other secondary colors out of Silver/Gunmetal/Black, there are pics showing which set has which 2ndary colors in previous pages of this thread.
I'm really enjoying the android / droid nature of some of the designs. They really are unique amongst my mini figures. I'm working on a new custom vehicle that's behind schedule but i'll need a gunner and i think i've made my choice.
I've been looking for a Hot Wheels or Matchbox car for my pilots and bought the MB '56 Aston Martin DBR1 but there isn't enough room for the legs.
Yeah, it's tough to find the right vehicles for these guys. This Hot Wheels Go Kart fit perfectly and is available in at least a half a dozen different colors... I have four different ones myself! Also fairly cheap on ebay, you won't pay more than a buck or two .
I *love* the blue and yellow on these for some reason. They are the surprise attractive color combo for me. I thought I'd like the silver and pearl more. Regarding the figures fitting in the Aston Martin....can the body be dremeled inside to allow for leg room? Edit: After a google image search...yes it can. You'll have to drill the rivets out , take off the bottom pan, make the mods and then drill the metal post so that they'll accept common screws of the right length. If you have a dremel this should be "easy".
I am so sorry to repost, but these look super cool. If I stick a Gundam Micro in a MM003 Blue will the canopy close? Also anybody have a size comparison with these RIHIO pilots and Gundam micro pilots? thank you in Advance .
Gundam micros are 1/2 of a head taller than RiHio figures. I'm sure someone will take pictures but if they don't before later this evening i'll take a picture.
Since RiHio gave us micro action figure packs of 15 figures i'm pretty much going to buy whatever they put out as a "thank you". I would prefer the giant bug over this but this will do for now.
I want to see some custom Rihio figures! Also how are you folks incorporating them into your collection? Are they in a stand alone universe or are you mixing them in with other 1/60 lines ? This far I've been taking it *slow* and customizing and appreciating the articulation on one solitary bronze brown figure. The fact that I've got 44 more build options to slowly get into is ******* fantastic.
Just got my blue construction, these guys are awesome! Great value if you don’t mind (I don’t) building them. And the Gundam Micro pilots fit perfectly! now all I need are more pilots. Hmm to continue to Gundam Micro or switch to Rihio? Or something else? I display Rihios with my WFC Transformers (sticking yo a 1/50 to 1/55 scale) so Gundam Micros are as small as I go and titanmasters are as large as I go. Anybody got any suggestions for micro action figures in that realm?
What type of pilots (or figures) do you see when you imagine adding figures to your collection? More mech pilots or something different?
