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"

A Revoltech Misa or Millia might be very very wrong.....

Millia might pull that look off, but do you really see Misa in her uniform skirt with that split-leg look? :D :D :D

Misa could wear her Mars-Base-Exploration-and-Act-Like-an-Idiot Suit...

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!

Well.. no comment on what I'm envisioning. :D

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.

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.

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...

Posted

Man they keep on releasing crowd favorites. Can't wait to see this one hit our shores.

Posted

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!!!)

Posted

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.

*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. :)

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

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.

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.

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.

it looks bad with the photo so big, but the real figure will be pretty small, i doubt the elbows will look so wrong
