    Lol, awesome!

    Very fun figure! Not a whole lot to it but it does what it needs to. Overall, I like the Revo Tachikoma that came out years ago better and I know they are different styles but I think they executed a bit better. Have a few more of the recent Tachikoma releases coming any day so if I have time to, I'd like to post some comparison thoughts.

    So the timing was great! I got another Ghost in the Shell figure today! Should have a few more different Tachikomas coming any day now too.

    Yep, it's pretty much perfect for 1/12 displays. I don't have the Mafex versions but based on the other Mafex figures I have, I don't see any way those could be close to being as good as this one. The only comments I've seen are about the face sculpt where the Mefex might be better but this one looks plenty good to me and that would be my lowest concern for a robot figure..ymmv.

    Yep! Yep, as @Darth Mingus mentioned, it’s from Goodsmile’s Hagane Works. 1/12 with diecast. It is really nice...similar to figma but heftier and gimmicks like opening leg with 3 or 4 moving panels that look to recreate the same mechanisms in the movie. Damaged option parts. The chest piece is a nice chunk of diecast and uses magnets to hold it in place. Definitely the definitive Robocop figure to me. Now, has anyone ever seen any toy 6000 SUX?

    Got a bunch of figures today. Here are the two I had to open right away. Short review: She is swee-eet! Also got some accessories to back up my collection of Motoko figures: Good figure but nothing special other than it comes with some smoking accessories that you don’t see very often with toys. This is also a rare occasion that I got two figures from Goodsmile when I rarely buy any figures from them. They make good figures, just rarely of characters I feel the need to have.

    Kinda...Sounds like a good plan to me though.

    Raideen is another great one. I love most the super robots from back in the day starting with the OG, Mazinger Z. The gimmicks with the Mechander are really great, especially the shields but I love them all. I would say objectively, the figure warrants a sub $200 price easily but given the likely smaller run from an offshoot company, I get the ~$250 price. That extra $50 or so makes it a tougher call if it were anyone that just didn’t absolutely have to have it. The figure itself is top notch from finish, design, build, joints perspective (however, no diecast). It just feels wonderful to mess with.

    Thanks @Saburo! It’s a fantastic piece and should still be around so it’s not too late. As I mentioned, this was a must buy for me but it depends on your connection to it. Such a crazy design that immediately hit the nostalgia buttons for me and I’m glad it came out as good as it is.

    Well, that’s pretty cool! I saw something like that once and I was on my way to checkout when I noticed signs that it was a swap out so I just left it at the counter. Really cool to see actual ones especially when the card back and the car inside are both desirable.

    Haha, fwiw all my Arcadia and DX Valk orders from there have been shipping out within the first week of release, some of them even shipped before other shops request payment. I doubt they will have any issues delivering this one.
  14. Slave IV
    Haha, nice! This is a very sweet figure and I can’t believe I forgot about the character until I saw this go on preorder. Knew at that moment I had to have it.
  15. Slave IV
    Are you sure that hasn’t been opened and swapped? I’d take the Audi if I saw it.

    I love this Mechander Robo!
  17. Slave IV
    Sweet! Nice paring with Baron Karza too.

    @sh9000 photos keep getting better and better! Posing, lighting, ps skills, all coming together!
  19. Slave IV
    Haha yeah. We were talking about display cabinet costs...I suspect you probably spent another Good chunk on stands.

    That’s a relief!
  22. Slave IV
    Most important question. Do the tiny missiles stay on or fall off if you look at them funny?
  23. Slave IV
    I have enough to hold me over for now. When they become available again, I’m on it! Was planning on placing an order before it was shut down but procrastinated too long.
  24. Slave IV
    Thanks! Haha, yeah. I don’t care about KO or not, just who has what I want at the right price. Given that, the only KO Valks I’ve ordered are the two 1A variants I’m still waiting for. From what I’ve seen, the official versions don’t cost significantly more if you buy them during preorder or on sale and with better quality so I don’t find much value in KO Valks yet. KO Transformers are another story for me though. I usually prefer those over official because they are usually a lot cheaper and for the most part, better quality or other improvements.

    I bought those clear parts separately a while ago. Love them!
