Toy Story Revoltechs huh... well, I'll be saving some money if Revoltech seriously plans to continue releasing those type of characters.
On the other hand, the Getter Go and even the EVA 2 look really good. I'll be getting Getter Go for sure... we'll see about the EVA.

I wonder if that Gunbuster was a Yamaguchi design it certainly looks like and come to think of it so did the old, I think they were called Museum Getter 1's I had a couple but sold them, wish i hadn't.

The Gunbuster is a Yamaguchi pre-revoltech sculpt, yes. It's got all of his hallmarks - overblown proportions, legs that can only be positioned to allow the figure to stand in a permanent crotch thrust, and masterfully designed cut joints that make him have the appearance of a lot more poseability than he really has. In all honesty, it's good enough that I probably wouldn't even get a revoltech if one came out unless it had some seriously special added features to entice me.

Even though I've already got the Robot Museum version, I'd certainly buy a Revoltech Gunbuster. The RM version came with a LOT of extras, but there's quite a bit it didn't come with too. BUSTA BEEEEEAM!!!
LOL to the crotch thrust! Honestly, I can't get my RMs to stand the way they do on the packaging. Choryujin got a broke foot trying to strike a pose!
Speaking of which, I'd like to see some GGG Revoltechs (seeing as how I can't afford CM's versions). If they did, I'd buy every single one of them.

I have a couple of the RM GGG, and I would love to see some revoltech versions.

Yeah, I really like those - really nice sculpt and somewhat posey. The Goldion Hammer is HUGE! Love it.

I just love the way revoltech is diversifying.
We got robots, superheros, video-game, anime characters, sci fi, japanese monsters, assembleborg and now the disney characters!
My only regret is that it seems Yuria will be the last Hokuto No Ken release...

idk how i feel about the movie line yet, i think i like the boxes more than the figures, i started collecting revoltech because the bring back the memories of epic fight scenes, and for alot of them i was a kidso those memories come back too, i liked aliens and predator but there was never really a part long enough where i was like now that was a cool fight (i remember will smith punching that alien in id, which would also make an awesome revo). the queen alien predator dose look cool tho and as for batman, he needs a joker... i probably wont be saving by skiping the movie line because my gf is in love disney and we jus gotta get jack....

The revo Movie line looks cool. If they make a revo of the old man from the movie "Up" I'll go Nuts. ;D

Hmm, from the look of things I'd guess Vash and Wolfwood are coming in June. I'm really excited to see these two painted. It looks like there are images of painted protos behind the figures...hmm. Also, (I'm not sure if this ever got posted before, I've been largely without internet access for a while) here's another shot of Mothra: <3

Eva 02 Beast and Getter Go is scheduled on May, 15 2010.
Revoltech is reaching #100 very soon..
I wonder who Kaiyodo will choose to take that place..
Revoltech #50 was Gurren Lagann and there were 2 exclusive release..
Maybe..i dont know..

Hey that's right, Getter Gou did have a pair of wheel-wings in the anime series; but he doesn't have them here... ...perhaps this was just a prototype and they didn't have time to show him with his wheel-wings. If he does come with them, we should see it when he's released. (or, maybe a designer Forgot that Getter Gou has wheel-wings) LOL! ;D zozo-magengar This revoltech release of Getter Go is the original manga design, which is slightly different from the anime version from the 90s and does not have the wheel-wings.

From the original manga design? Oh I see now.
