Bub Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 Pretty much what the Title and description says. Any news regarding the Macross Kaiyodo Figures/Toys? Quote
Father Jack Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 I seem to remember sometime awhile back somebody said they would be released as capsule toys, ala the bandi ones. However this was awhile ago and I could be wrong (Please correct me if I am). I have been waiting for those guys cause I want that GBP armored one somethin' awful Quote
Bub Posted October 7, 2003 Author Posted October 7, 2003 I guess no is really that interested with these. Anyway here an ebay link (not my auction) which has a scan of these toys. (click me) Nice to see the regult stand besaide the battroid to see a size comparison. I'm not sure if the picture was already posted here at the boards before, though. As I have been busy with real life activities lately. Quote
mech9T8 Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 Never seen those before. How big are they, and how much will they be selling for? Quote
Aegis! Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 Wow , they look nicer than the last time I saw them , If only theses toys had been released 10 years ago , they would've been the perfect toy , but hey , what the hell , we know many of us will end up getting some of these little buggers It seems Kaiyodo will release two different series , a non-trnasformable hyper-articulated line and a badly-sculpted transformable line , I personally will try to collect the non-transformable figures , they seems quite solid and have a nice sculpt , it's not like I would be missing something if I don't pick up the trnasformable ones since we have Banpresto anyway. I'm drooling already , 10s of regults and Q-Raus vs a few VF-1 squadrons , these figures will be perfect for making a lot of custom colour schemes without spending too much money. I wonder when Kevin will have them ready for sale Quote
Bub Posted October 8, 2003 Author Posted October 8, 2003 here's more pics Wah! Thanks for the pix. Quote
bandit29 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 HLJ has them 10 pcs for 3000 yen (about 27.00) http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?KAMX-01 Quote
Isamu Atreides 86 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 so these are transformable? they look pretty nice. Quote
Uxi Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 Hmm sounds kinda like a crap shoot. I wonder what the average assortment is... Quote
bigkid24 Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 If these are capsule figures then I'd imagine that they'll be sold in sets so getting tons of regults would be hard. Quote
Aegis! Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) I have to say , the non-transformable ones look nicer everytime I see a new pic of them. so these are transformable? they look pretty nice. Kaiyodo is releasing two different lines of VF-1 capsule toys , there're transformable Vf-1s (the ones with crappy nosecones ) with limited articulation and non-transformable Vf-1s with lots of articulation. Damn , HLJ is selling them as randomly packed toys , i.e. you won't know what toy you're getting until you open the box... If only Kevin could sell them non-randomly Edit: I was wondering , if you order one of these 10pcs boxes , would you get transformable VF-1s as well as non-transformable VF-1s or will they sell them as separate items (i.e. one box with transformable VF-1s and other with non-transformable VF-1s) ? Edited October 9, 2003 by Aegis! Quote
ZorClone Posted October 9, 2003 Posted October 9, 2003 those non-transforming figures are awesome, and I gotta get some of the battlepods!!!! Quote
akim Posted October 10, 2003 Posted October 10, 2003 Hello everybody, Can someone tell me how many different items there are in this Macross 1Box (10pcs) (KAMX-01) (transformable, non-transformable valks and regults included)? Thanks for your answer. Akim. Quote
Bub Posted October 13, 2003 Author Posted October 13, 2003 I think I heard that an online store already has them for pre-order or sumthing... Just look around. I also like to know how many are there. Quote
Bub Posted October 13, 2003 Author Posted October 13, 2003 BTW, Thanks for the pictures! Post somemore pix or links if you ever come across new ones. Quote
Bub Posted October 13, 2003 Author Posted October 13, 2003 Interesting...they look pretty good. Oh yes they do! They just don't get enough attention. Must be the upcoming VF-1S Hikaru and the PS2 Game.... And the very far away release of the 1/60 GBP. Quote
wm cheng Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Hey, I just checked HLJ and it says they are not available! Whatsup? Quote
Edveen Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 The non transformables look real cool. I might get some, and maybe the ones that transform also. If anyone knows where else they are sold then please say so. Ed Quote
bmwz4 Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Those are trading figures which mean will come in sealed small boxes. There are 5 pieces to complete a set. Of the set, two of them are non transformable but highly articulated ( quite clearly shown in pictures). Each box comes with 10 pieces of these. Most likely can form two complete sets as assortment from Kaiyodo is quite all right from the past. This series is consider the smallest transformable macross similar to smallest Transformers from Takara (Transformers fans will get what I mean) Do not worry about the sculpting as Kaiyodo has always produce detail figures at the while. Only thing is that the gun might be a out of proportion. <_< Quote
GobotFool Posted October 18, 2003 Posted October 18, 2003 Looks great as a fighter and Gerwalk, batroid on the transformable one is kinda crappy. but thats what the non transformable ones for Quote
Commander McBride Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 I actually like the look of the transformable Battroid. It really looks like it's TV series counterpart, what with those proportions and all. Quote
bigkid24 Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 Edit: I was wondering , if you order one of these 10pcs boxes , would you get transformable VF-1s as well as non-transformable VF-1s or will they sell them as separate items (i.e. one box with transformable VF-1s and other with non-transformable VF-1s) ? Yeah, I'm interested about this too. Does anyone know? Kevin? Will? Anybody? Quote
bsu legato Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 Where's the destroids and the GBP? Are they being saved for a second assortment? I really wanted that Tomahawk. Quote
flash Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 I want about a doen of the battlepods! It's an invasion! LOL Quote
slaxed Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 they've been released already, pretty worth it for a ¥300 toy... enjoy the pics Quote
bigkid24 Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 slaxed So both transforming and non-transforming figures are in the same box? Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 how much was the whole box? I gotta get me one of these boxes! Quote
wm cheng Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 Who will get them in first!! More specifically, who can get them in Toronto first!! Man we need a price - whats in the full set! Quote
ZorClone Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 So, it looks like you get: 3 transforming figures, 1 battlepod and one non-transforming VF in a box... Quote
Wabbit Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 So they aren't trading figures and each box has the same content? Quote
