CF18 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 New female body for revoltech: http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 New line of cheaper "Revoltech Mini": http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1
ShadowerV2 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Hey CF18 thanks for the links. MINI?! They are already so small. What's the point of making them smaller?
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 (edited) New female body for revoltech: http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 New line of cheaper "Revoltech Mini": http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 Well there's Rei and Asuka on their way! Looks like they figured out to incorporate a better way to add the revy pegs into a smaller thrame of body. Thankyou CF18! Now i'll wait for Asuka. But i might just grab Rei this time too. I wonder if they are larger than Revoltech Revy? And what the hell are they doing with the smaller Eva movie line now? lol So are these to keep in size with the original Revoltech Eva line? Why why why? i'm gonna give these a miss, i'll buy Eva-02 and that's it for the mini's. I "might" pick up the weapons pack for my other Revy line just coz they are sooooo cheap! I want Asuka to have swords. Edited August 8, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
Macross73 Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 uhm ... smaller ? I agree aren't they small enough ? i'm gonna pass. I thought they were making the new movie eva line bigger? the rei / female figure line looks promising.
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 I was expecting some nice poseable Rei/Asuka figures, but the proportions on the shown Rei are way off. The head is too small and the legs are too fat. Too bad.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 (edited) uhm ... smaller ? I agree aren't they small enough ? i'm gonna pass. I thought they were making the new movie eva line bigger? the rei / female figure line looks promising. They are making the larger Revoltech movie line. These are (as i suspect) to keep the original Revy Eva line customers happy so they can be happy little completists. Rei looks fine to me LSBoy. The legs are not so bad. And i wouldn't like to have a bigger kawaii head as well. What would be really cool is if they released a standard non coloured or atleast skin coloured figure for customizations! That would be a dream for custom modellers i'd imagine. They are small enough and cheap enough to try my hand at it anyways. I'd like a plain Revy Revoltech as well. I'm almost getting ready to start colouring my extra Revy figure as a blonde. Edited August 9, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
sidearmsalpha Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 More Revoltech Eva's ... YAWN! Man, I hope the Macross line takes off and really expands into the other Macross series.
wolfx Posted August 9, 2007 Author Posted August 9, 2007 Yeah. I don't mind if i have non variable revoltech macross stuff from the other series like Macross 7, Macross Plus, etc.
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 oooh....a 19, 22, 21, 11, & 17...oh my!! that sounds to good to be true...and probably is... but i would like a battroid figure of any one of these mechs
Black Valkyrie Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 I think Kaiyodo wanna compete with Bandai`s HCM-Pro. PLEASE KAIYODO VF-1A TV MAX !
Fly4victory Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 I was expecting some nice poseable Rei/Asuka figures, ...the legs are too fat. Yeah, that is the post marriage version.
Mowe Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 uhm ... smaller ? I agree aren't they small enough ? i'm gonna pass. I thought they were making the new movie eva line bigger? the rei / female figure line looks promising. I agree. We don't need smaller and cheaper revoltech. What we need is the exact opposite: bigger and happy to pay more. Don't understand this move at all.
Chet Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Wait, so the Revoltech Miniatures are the same size as the first Revoltech EVA figures based on the TV series designs?
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I had a comparable pic of the original Eva line and the new larger eva movie line (in this thread somewhere), and now we have the new new Mini line Eva comparable with the larger than original Movie eva line and the difference is about the same, so i'd have to say yeah, these will be the same size as the original Eva line. The bigger movie eva line would be much nicer, instead of having everything all the same scale.
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I had a comparable pic of the original Eva line and the new larger eva movie line (in this thread somewhere), and now we have the new new Mini line Eva comparable with the larger than original Movie eva line and the difference is about the same, so i'd have to say yeah, these will be the same size as the original Eva line. The bigger movie eva line would be much nicer, instead of having everything all the same scale. That is confusing. Can you elaborate?
Veritas Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 That is confusing. Can you elaborate? I think he means that since the New Movie Evas are actually larger (height and proportions) than the Original Revoltech Evas, the new "Mini" line is actually an effort to put these New Movie Eva Models in scale with their Original Revoltech Counterparts. Alot of people want some uniformity in the scales (myself included) so making the Minis makes sense as long as they're the same scale as the Revoltechs before them. Hope that helps.
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 lol sorry for being confusing >_< Its okay man. I hope these are brought over for the same price as in japan, these seem dirt cheap! Even with the accessory sets, the price for a mini and accessory kit is almost $10 less than a full size revoltech.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 (edited) Yeah, damn good cheap space savers they are. :edit: HLJ.com have them up for an early bird price now... (HLJ.com all Revoltech range in a one page search) http://www.hlj.com/hljlist2/?range=descrip...p;GenreCode=All Edited August 12, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
eriku Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Awesome, Revoltech Rei and Asuka! Now would they PLEASE make a goddamn SHINJI so I can shut the hell up about him already?
ShadowerV2 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 HELL DIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1
CF18 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) Tons of new Revoltech were shown.

Vermillion21 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 That VF-1S Strike looks nice! But the hand where he's saluting looks way HUGE!
Smiley424 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 it's either the head is too small, the hands are too big, or a combination of the two. the figure looks all out of proportion, though it could be from the way the pictures are taken.
Golden Arms Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Thanks for sharing the pics. Kaiyodo continues to impress. Hopefully we'll continue to see more humanoid characters in the future. The girl in the school girl uni reminds me of the girl from Blood. I esp. can't wait for Shin Getter, the evas and Gaiking. I really like the DYRL poses they incorporated for the VF-1S.
Macross73 Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 liking the t-28 thats one i want for sure. rei and asuka will be welcome additions now if they make Misato that would be too cool. still need a Masinger Z and Great Mazinger and a Grendizer.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ka-Ching! Chick figures rock! Hmm, so what does G-Man think of the 1S head? I agree the hands are a little big, but meh. lol Unfortunately i only want the Hikaru 1S..... Edited August 12, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
Veritas Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Yes! Thanks for posting those up CF18. I think i'll be picking them all up at one point or another save for maybe the Gaiking. As for the VF-1S, i'm hoping that the final product is not that out of proportion. It could just be the angle that the photo was taken in or even that the figure was a test-shot, so here's hoping.
Lynx7725 Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Tons of new Revoltech were shown. VF-1S Strike: http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 T-28 and Patlabor movie version: http://www.zshare.net/image/309915430f9b8b/ More from Patlabour: Helldiver and Brocken: http://www.zshare.net/image/3099149a482795/ Oh my, my wallet just curled up in a fetal position. 1 Strike VF, 1 Movie Patlabor, at least 2 Helldiver (probably 4, a full platoon), and depending what accessories the "Broken" comes with, at least 1. Hmm, my wallet just started digging...
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I always loved the Brocken. I've never thought I'd see a Revo one so soon. It's me or that Ingram has opening holster?
-JP- Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 Thanks for the pics CF18 finally more labors The Helldiver looks awesome so does the movie ingram yeah they made the holster on this one it looks awesome and more poseable. can't wait!!!
