scand Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 I've always loved the Guyver but I've never been a big fan of figurine/models. What's the deal with the action figure? Are there any other Guyvers planned besides Guyver 3? From the pics on the Max Factory website the Guyver looks totally awsome. Max Factory Page Quote
kalvinmaui Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 (edited) I pre-ordered that figure as well. There doesn't seem to be many Guyver figures released. Hopefully there will be more figures in the future. Anybody have info on this Max Factory Guyver figure? I ordered this as well but it doesn't seem poseable like the Guyver 3 figure.

Graham Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 I've been considering buying the Guyver III figure for the last few days. The articulation looks cool. However, for a 6" high (approx) action figure, it's damn expensive. The Japaense retail price is ¥5,040. Here in HK, it's selling between HK$340 to HK$420 depending on where you shop. I'm a big Guyver fan, but that's a little more than I'm prepared to pay for a non-Macross plastic action figure. Graham Quote
scand Posted April 28, 2004 Author Posted April 28, 2004 Guyver 1 looks awsome. I thought about picking up that kit. Being non-posable turns me off though. When you get it can you post up some detail pics? about how tall in inches is that kit? As for the Guyver 3, six inches is pretty small for seventy bucks. I'm still considering picking it up though.

Graham Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 I'd love to see a new Guyver OVA or even better a TV series. It's been too long with no new Guyver anime. Graham Quote
Dampiel Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 I would love a new Guyver OAV or TV Series. As for the Figure all I can say is it rocks (got mine today) Now Where's Fukamachi or Murakami and some Zoanoids. I can't tell you how badly I've wanted Guyver action Figures for like the last decade. So anyone know if there are anymore figures planned? Quote
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 @toyboxdx i read that these are all for the anniversary. others in the figure line coming up will be guyver 1 qand some zoinoids. I think the hairy puff one that killed sho in the first OVA series is being made. Quote

The June 2004 issue of Hobby Japan showed what the next figure was going to be. It was one of the Zoanoids, tho not a hairy one. I can't remember the name. I'll look it up in my Guyver book when I get home. Graham Quote
Graham Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Haven't been home yet to check the Hobby Japan, but I've just been searching through Guyver sites for names of the Zoanoids and IIRC, the next poseable figure from Max Factory will be this version of Aptom. Graham Quote
Dampiel Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Wow Cool Aptom. Hadn't seen that design before must be from the Manga. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 Oh man I want that guyver 3 figure!! I see there's no love for guyver 2. hehe. Anyway, where can I get this figure? Is it new? And how big is it again? Quote

And how big is it again? I've been seeing them floating around on Ebay for a couple of weeks but the're pretty pricy. I think There comparable in size to the EVA SOC figures. I had one on order at Yesasia.com but I cancelled the order. It seemed they were going to take there time getting it to Me. HLJ has them listed so I'm going to try ordering from them next week. Oh, and Aptom looks pretty freaking evil....Awsome. Edited May 7, 2004 by scand Quote

Aren't you going to offer a trade for it??? (J/K) Ok, seriously... so far Japan & HK released this figure at the end of April; so it is "new." It stands 6" - 7" tall; so it's basically 1/12 scale. The sculpt is taken directly from the original 1/12 Max Factory vinyl kit of Guyver III, but now modified to have joints to be an action figure. The bad thing about this toy is that it is a bit pricy ... @ $50 - $60 USD. Pretty expensive for an action-figure. Quote

CoryHolmes Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 Is anyone else having trouble with HLJ's pages? I can't update my shipping address so I can buy this neat Guyver III. I fill out every field, click on submit, and it comes back saying I need to fill in my address fields (which I've already done). Any help would be appreciated. Quote
Dampiel Posted June 10, 2004 Posted June 10, 2004 (edited) Looks like Masaki Murakami in Zoalord form is #03 Edited June 10, 2004 by Dampiel Quote
