Bandai has created three new mecha action figures based on the new PS2 video game and anime series Eureka Seven. The three mecha were designed by Shoji Kawamori, one of the most skilled mecha artists in the world whose past work includes the series Macross, Patlabor, Gundam, and Escaflowne. The three figures in the Bandai Eureka Seven figure series include: Trans Model Type 606 Trans Model Type 808 Trans Model Type 909 Each 8" figure will be tranformable from "robot mode" to "vehicle mode" and feature a wide variety of articulation. Each Bandai Eureka Seven Action Figure will come packaged in an illustrated window box and retail for approx. $35.00 US. Quote
wolfx Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Unfortunately for this line, the paint finishing on these are pretty bad. Smudges everywhere. Quote

Graham Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Lots of parts swapping involved in the transformation as well. Not impressed by the one I handled. Saw the 606 and 808 in the shops yesterday. Graham Quote

Graham Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 They are supposed to be sort of cheapy toys, just one step up from MSIA, not deluxe versions. But yes they are sorta sucky. Only buy them if you really love the mecha designs. Graham Quote

Twoducks Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Is the series any good? The designs look original. Quote
danth Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Is the series any good? The designs look original. 334062[/snapback] I see a lot of the YF-19 in those designs... Quote
Graham Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Oh I see. What size are they? I didn't get a really good sense of scale. 334060[/snapback] IIRC, they are about 6 to 7 inches tall to the top of the head. Graham Quote
Graham Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Is the series any good? The designs look original. 334062[/snapback] I like the series, although I've only seen the first 8 eps so far. I far prefer it to Aquarion, the other series that Kawamori is involved with. We already have a 5 page thread on the Eureka 7 anime and toys. You can read it here for people's views on the series.
