It is a ThreeZero.

Just... wow!

I don't actually connect with GL itself as I never watched the anime, but when I first saw the toys it strongly reminded me of character Bishamon in Capcom's Darkstalker fighting game. The demon torso thing is kinda cool, and I bet Capcom used GL as the inspiration for it.

From CCS Toys? I love the paintwork on this.

The visor actually looks like a Kai wearing a full-face helmet lol. Btw, the hips are not rotated upwards? Are they very stiff?
-
And still available over an hour later!

It looks quite large, perhaps more than a 1/48 F-14 it’s based on.

Somehow missed this, & gotta these look fantastic! Am hunting these down now. Always loved the character designs in Ranma 1/2.
-
Wow quite a bit SW goodness. I don’t collect but am enjoying the great pics of the crew & their ship.

This sort of reminds me of the time when toy companies will reuse character molds for other franchises, with bizarre results. Probably the most egregious for us is how Matchbox took the He-Man head and repurpose it into Minmei - really as wrong as it can get lol.

It's just different ways of transforming the hips. On the right is the previously released Roy, with the Gerwalk joint engaged to give longer hips and more height overall. On the left is the new Roy with Gerwalk joint totally collapsed and lead her to believe it is smaller. Edit: In addition to the hips, the chest plate on the right figure isn't pushed down properly. Doesn't add anything to the actual height, but visually makes it look taller when comparing with the one on the left. It's the VF equivalent of puffing up one's chest to look bigger.
-
Oh wow the new one is smaller! PO, err order cancelled.

Seeing how ThreeZero's warranty policy require customers to bear the defective items shipping cost to them, it might be a good idea to purchase their stuff from local toy stores moving forward. In my case of the 1J arriving with a missing rear landing gear, it just so happened I procured it locally and the local toy store covered the cost of shipping the entire lower legs assembly back to ThreeZero in HK for repairs. TZ will cover return shipping of repaired item back to customer though.

No idea how toy IPs work, but assuming Toynami goes ahead with their 1/55, won't it infringe Bandai's in some way?
