F-ZeroOne Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 Just seen at Microman Forever that a Ingram is planned for September. One can only hope that a Griffon is planned too!
KingNor Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 I was thinking how much i would like a Master Cheif Revoltech. then i thought... i'd pretty much like a revoltech verson of EVERY character i've ever liked... this line could be habit forming for me if they go "all the way"

Really though they could put Misa in a dress, that sorta stiff rubber stuff might work.. i mean what poses were you envisioning? The revoltech "giant nut" pose is just that, they could sculpt a more lady like pose for Misa if they wanted. what i'd really like too would be a 1/48 scale revoltech Zentradi foot soldier!

My Dougrams' are finally in the post, so I don't have one on hand to look at. But I don't think they can get away from the big-nut stance because the Revoltech joints are biggish, so they might have problems getting legs close enough together in a normal standing pose (Levy's sideways lunge is possible though). The alternative to the big-nut stance, I suppose, is the super-birth-hips posture... which would be fairly out-of-human-shape at the scale they are sculpting at. I won't mind a Zentradi foot soldier, but at 1/48 there are better joint systems. Takara's 1/6 bodies, especially their Type IIs, can be good; So are Dragon-in-Dreams 1/6 or BBIs -- all of them are about 12" tall and stand close to approximately 1/48 VF-1 height. That technology is quite mature, and I think there's even a fan-made Zentradi uniform that would go onto a 12" action figure (or man-doll as some call it). Heck, just use the Pop-Box Hikaru figure and you're more than halfway there... If I really want a Zentradi foot soldier with the Revoltech joints, I would prefer them to be of the 1/100 scale. At that scale, there are few joint system that look as good as the Revoltech -- Bandai's EMSiAs are good but not as cosmetic -- so they would be great for Zentradi foot infantry. Throw in 1/100 Destroids and with Toynami's 1/100 Perfect Variables, and we got a rockin' deal.
Lynx7725 Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Woah, me likey! Sure buy, bring on the Zero next! Odd though, one photo shows the shotgun, but the pic with the accessories doesn't have it.
drifand Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Ah, I see the thigh 'cheat' but otherwise pretty cool action figure. No extending gun-arm snatch action though...
wolfx Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Well the revoltechs focus more on the poseability and accesories rather than the actual features of the figure. So i don't expect the legs to open up to show the gun storage compartment etc. In other news, i just opened up my EVA01 revoltech. It feels very rubbery (the PVC), and the gloss is applied pretty badly. Some parts, the gloss layer is obvious and it can be "peeled" out. Despite that, its still a cool toy to play around with.
the white drew carey Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Christ, I think I just ruined my keyboard... Nope, stillworks. Tha Alphonse is awesome!!! Maybe they show the shotgun but it's actually planned for a Unit 2 release? The bignut problem don't look so bad in the pictures, either...
F-ZeroOne Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Ingram! One can only hope a Griffon is planned - its been way too long since my various toy Ingrams have had anything to fight against!
Veritas Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Man they keep on releasing crowd favorites. Can't wait to see this one hit our shores.
Abnolds Posted July 23, 2006 Posted July 23, 2006 I'm liking that labor, I hope they do a helldiver, coolest mech in the series IMO.
the white drew carey Posted July 23, 2006 Posted July 23, 2006 It's odd, because the Alphonse possibly looks worst in the static pose. All of the action poses look great! I haven't been able to buy a toy in years, but I think I'll have to sneak this one in under the radar (as well as any other Patlabor releases... but don't tell the wife!!!)
KingNor Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 ah yay. as of right now i'm just getting the eva line up. the ingram looks neat but i'm just not much of a patlabor fan.
wolfx Posted July 26, 2006 Author Posted July 26, 2006 Not much new pics of the Ingram, some pics of the EVA00 Blue.
Lynx7725 Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 *mutter* *mutter* Looking at the list of Revoltech in the lineup in the pic, I think it's better to rename the line to EvaTech. So many Evas... Anyway, Ingram looks good, just that seems to be no shotgun in the pack. Going to get one.
kanedaestes Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Sadly it seems no one has love for the Dante revoltech figure but me, i bought mine, and i love it. it is awesome as far as posing goes. I have to restrain myself everyday from constantly changing poses. Next i'm going for the getters
Dante74 Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 WOW I just found out about this Revoltech line 15 minutes ago. I've allready put in an order for the EVA-01, EVA-00(the black one) and the Ingram. These things look amazing and at that price who cares if they're a little small. I might have to get the King Gainer as well. Don't know which anime it's from, but I like the looks of it. I hope they'll do Guyver figures and more Patlabor figures.

This Revoltech line looks pretty sweet ... how many releases have there been? Anyone know where I can view a complete list? Thx in advance.

Def. looking forward to more Evas and Ingram. King Gainer i'll prolly pass on though. Anyways as of now to the best of my knowledge we've seen releases of: Dante (Devil May Cry 3) Getter-1 Dougram EVA 00 (Yellow) EVA 01 EVA 00 (Clear Yellow (Figure Oh! Exclusive)) EVA 01 (Glow in the Dark (SDCC 06 Exclusive)) On the horizon we've got: EVA 02 (July 06) King Gainer (July 06) Getter-2 (Aug./Sep. 06) EVA 03 (Aug./Sep. 06) EVA 00 (Blue) (Sep./Oct. 06) Ingram (Sep./Oct. 06) Levy (Black Lagoon) (???) Optimus Prime (???)
Vermillion21 Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Perfect. Thanks for the list mate!! Mucho appreciated!
wolfx Posted July 31, 2006 Author Posted July 31, 2006 More pics of Revy. I dunno guys. But i don't see any revoltech joints on that thing. Sol badguy custom revoltech http://www.flickr.com/photos/18251255@N00/...57594215949828/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/18251255@N00/...57594215949828/
Briareos Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) More pics of Revy.I dunno guys. But i don't see any revoltech joints on that thing. Her ankles are the only ones I see so far that have the revoltech joints. Edited July 31, 2006 by Briareos
Lynx7725 Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Her ankles are the only ones I see so far that have the revoltech joints. 421093[/snapback] Huh? Dougram had ankle revoltech joints too. Not that well placed, but revoltech none the less.
MrDisco Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Optimus Prime (???) 420634[/snapback] really?? Prime?? that outta be funky. just placed a huge order for all the EVAs (upto the blue '00).
Veritas Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 (edited) Optimus Prime (???) 420634[/snapback] really?? Prime?? that outta be funky. just placed a huge order for all the EVAs (upto the blue '00). 421975[/snapback] Yeah i'm looking forward to it. According to this old TFormers article: http://tformers.com/article.php?sid=5867 He's suppossed to land in Dec. He'll prolly look a little different from those pictures though, seeing as how old that magazine scan was. Edited August 3, 2006 by Veritas
Dante74 Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 More pics of Revy. 421078[/snapback] Don't like her elbows. I never thought I'd this but maybe they should put some clothes on her.
KingNor Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 it looks bad with the photo so big, but the real figure will be pretty small, i doubt the elbows will look so wrong
wolfx Posted August 10, 2006 Author Posted August 10, 2006 The next revoltech, Powerpuff Z Blossom. 0.o
