soze Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 So I've got three of the "5" supposedly planned figures in the Mazinger AD 1901 Steampunk line. So far I see these figures out: Mazinger - Original and Repaint Aflodai - Original and Repaint Garada You need all 5 characters to get the parts necessary to assemble Mazinger's Jet Pack. So where the hell is Boss Borot and Doublas??? Did the project get scrapped? And I also recently saw a figure pack with the current 3 that are out being sold together as a set. Does that include the whole Jet pack set? And if it does... does that mean that Boss Borot and Doublas figures are never coming out? Dammit! Quote
eriku Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 I remember hearing a couple months ago that the line was canned. Just think, they could have released two new figures instead of the repaints. For the great work Fewture does on their stuff it's amazing how poorly they run their company. I'm surprised they're even still around. Anyone remember that great looking Blood: The Last Vampire figure they were pimping? After a year they decided it was going to be a statue, then they just forgot about it altogether. <_< Quote
captain america Posted January 24, 2004 Posted January 24, 2004 D'oh! This is really unfortunate, I was so looking foreward to the Doublas figure, but alas, such is corporate life. <_< I have one of each of the mazinger figures for sale if anyone's interested; they're original releases, not the re-paints... Maybe one day I'll be feeling generous and offer my Grendizer conversion for the Mazinger figure, hehehehe! Quote
getoninja Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 .......well 3 years later............. Fewture is gonna make Doudblas and Boss Borot http://www.figures.com/databases/action.cg...;show_article=2 damn 3 years later, better late than never. and I cant wait for them Quote
lord_breetai Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 I'm trying to find information on this toyline now... I love steampunk, and the idea of doing Mazinger steampunk style would be awesome... but I'm having trouble googling up any info on it. Anyone got a link? Quote
Guppy Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 The only one I like in this series is Garada. I just couldn't get into this Mazinger sculpt. I do like how he's so scary looking but I can't stand those huge boots! Looks like he should be playing guitair with Kiss! IT should be called Mazinger 1975! Quote
Beware of Blast Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Ken Ishikawa (who designed the 1901 series) and Taku Sato (who sculpted the Ken's linearts) have gone shopping at the huge toy shop in the sky. Fewture might not complete this line. So get your while it's still possible. Quote
