UN Spacy Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 Wow...hell must be freezing over...a Toynami product has made it to AmiAmi. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-COL-7628&page=top Quote
jenius Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 And only 25% more expensive than a YF-30 Chronos toy... what a bargain! Quote
aaajin Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 I really wouldnt mind picking up a few SD regults...but not at that ridiculous price! Quote
aaajin Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 Sorry if this has been posted before (credits to jenius) : http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=7305 Quote

macster1971 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I had the "Master-piss" Alpha's, Not so Great! Poorly finished badly molded didn't fit together properly in Fighter Mode, I even bought the Aoshima re-issues Not Impressed!! Quote
rasky Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) I'm tempted to, but haven't heard anything about them. How are they? Edited April 3, 2015 by rasky Quote
jvmacross Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 I've only opened one figure box so far...it was the Regult...pretty much a static figurine with zero posability...I only bought them to display with the 3P Makurosu...I'll post more pic when I get a chance.... Quote
jenius Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Started shipping them only 4 months late huh? Toynami is really improving. They seemed really pricey for static figures so I passed. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Not bad...solid little statuettes....perfect for displaying and not having to worry about them getting damaged.....would go well with the Makurosu....will need to dig mine out and take some pics with it later.... Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Started shipping them only 4 months late huh? Toynami is really improving. They seemed really pricey for static figures so I passed. 4 months? Try 7 months. The original release date was last October, which then got bumped to December, and then January. Toynami's got a reputation to maintain here. I see these toys hitting the bargain bin real fast. I don't them selling well in light of the superior Ori Toy releases that Toynami recently announced. Way to cannibalize your own wares, Toynami.

jvmacross Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 BTW.... The valks and the Hikaru/Rick come assembled.....the Tomahawk and Regult need to be put together.....helped keep all the boxes the same size I guess.... Hopefully the Ori Toy valks are not being delivered by the same shipping company used for the vinyl Glaug! So as far as Toynami goes..."Coming Soon" means nothing..... Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Hopefully the Ori Toy valks are not being delivered by the same shipping company used for the vinyl Glaug! So as far as Toynami goes..."Coming Soon" means nothing..... Haha, good point. They should replace "Coming Soon" with "Roll the Dice." Btw, thanks for posting those pictures. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Chase figure spotted on eBay......now I'll need to open up the rest....UGH.... Quote
rasky Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Oo, these are pretty cool. Thanks for the pictures, jvmacross. Ugh, I didn't know they were completely static. I might buy them once they hit clearance. Definitely a bit pricey for what they are, especially with supposedly articulated (?) ones coming out... eventually. Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 god i kinda hate that i want that hikaru/rick figure with and without helmet. wonder how he scales (too big?) with the chibi minmay i have (she is in a dyrl costume but still would be nice) Quote
jvmacross Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Chibi Minmay....is that the one that came in the set with Sara and Ishtar?...I think I have those....I'll snap some pics when I get a chance....will try and dig out the Makurosu too... Quote
jvmacross Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 god i kinda hate that i want that hikaru/rick figure with and without helmet. wonder how he scales (too big?) with the chibi minmay i have (she is in a dyrl costume but still would be nice) Here you go... Quote
jvmacross Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 OK...so after seeing the "alternate" Hikaru/Rick on eBay.....I decided to go ahead and open the rest of the figurine boxes....I'm happy to report that it seems that if you buy a case you get all the variations....as far as I know...the Regult and Tomahawk in my box were all the same...but who knows! ...and the VF variants with the gunpods stored on the right arm.... Quote
jvmacross Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 I want the tomahawk & Regult! I wonder what the chase figure is?. Possibly just a recolor 1J max or 1A CF? : SDF-1? Spartan?...or maybe a Hikaru without the helmet? I would have preferred to have guessed correctly about the Spartan! Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted April 6, 2015 Posted April 6, 2015 Here you go... thanks! looks good. scale and style is a little off but it still works. Quote

CoreyD Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I like the roy armor, but since it's about the same cost as the 1J hi metal, I'm going with Bandai. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Agreed. I may have grabbed all of them if they had sold the armors separately as well. At that price I might be tempted in the Roy at some later date.....like during a clearance... Quote
jvmacross Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Toynami delivering on those "domestic" pricing. Must be that high licensing fee they are paying BigWest!!!! Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Hmm, I wonder how well those VF-1's are going to be able to handle the additional weight from the GBP armor. Unlike the Hi-Metals, these VF-1's are made with significantly lower quality plastic. Quote
jodokast Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) Hmm, I wonder how well those VF-1's are going to be able to handle the additional weight from the GBP armor. Unlike the Hi-Metals, these VF-1's are made with significantly lower quality plastic. My guess is they won't unless they've changed the plastic composition. I feel sorry for the suckers that buy these and find out they start breaking in the span of a few months. ... sadly I got suckered on the 1st release of these. 1st wave was horribly cheap and broke easily, 2nd wave was too stiff and became brittle over time.

jvmacross Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 http://www.comic-con.org/cci/2015/exclusives/toynami Anyone going to the SDCC? If so, I'd like one of each. PM me if you can help me get these two. Quote
rasky Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 That looks cool... Holy crap, the GBP-1 is $99?? Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Whoah, at $99, Toynami's GBP-1 is more expensive than Bandai's (vastly superior) Hi-Metal GBP-1. Limited edition or not, that's ridiculous. Quote
