I would like to get the Revoltech Kerberos Panzer Cop. I love the Design and can't effort the pricey, bigger versions.i want to get at last three of them to build a little diorama.
if anyone here owns this figure and also has the Chirico Cuvie Figure from Yamato, could you please take a comparison pic and post it here?
thanks in advance!

Hi fatcap67. Im not sure how pricey the bigger versions are, but I can tell you for sure that the Kuberos Panzer Revo is one of the most expensive Revo to get your hands on. This is primarily attributed to the fact that the moulds for the Panzer revos were mysteriously misplaced when kaiyodo fired Organic as its distributor. There have been only limited numbers of the panzer revoltech made and hence they are extremely expensive.

I paid 40 shipped for mine, i dont consider that extremely expensive.
The panzers ranged from 200 ~ 89....... though i dont remmeber how the original kaiyodo panzer was worth (I sold mine off for $20)

$40 is excellent Mechamasterj. Could you link your source? I used my local ebay to check the prices and they were all starting around $35 without shipping. I guess thats not extremely expensive but it's almost double a normal revo cost.

I guess thats not extremely expensive but it's almost double a normal revo cost. eBay @ $25.99 shipped: cgi.ebay.com/KAIYODO-Revoltech-061-PROTECT-GEAR-RED-SPECTACLES-61_W0QQitemZ330339478631QQeBay @ $26.99 Shipped: cgi.ebay.com/Revoltech-Project-Gear-The-Red-Spectacles-Figure-No-061_W0QQitemZ170347812310QQThere are two at $27.99 shipped, and I counted at least 8 others under $40 with shipping to the US. There was a period of price inflation on these guys around the time that Enki got scarce, but the prices are pretty much what I'd expect for most out-of-production Revos now. I took prices with shipping rates to the US, so shipping rates may vary depending on your location. To fatcap67's request: I unfortunately can't help, as I don't own the Chirico Cuvie figure. Are you talking about the 1/12 one that goes in the Scopedog? If so, I don't think it'll be in scale with the Protect Gear, which is non-scale but around 5"... so around a .5" to 1" difference in height, I'd guess. |

Hi czacen, that’s some very interesting info!thank you!
I’ve seen lots of Panzer Cops on ebay for less thar 20$ without shipping. Just search for revoltech 061!
Hello Mechamasterj, I don’t know if you have seen the anime or read the comic…the story takes place in an alternate japan where the germans have won WW2. Your nazi association makes sense, but I do not want the figures for their nazi factor!!!!!!!!!!I just like heavy armored figures with round goggles and big guns.
Hi cyrano, yes, i meant the 1/12 figure. I just measured it and its 13,5cm = 5,3” (with the Head and belly from the Fyana figure, I guess it makes it a little bit bigger.) the Panzer cop should look good next to it…a picture still would be better!

I have the Cuvie fig. that goes on the 1/12 Scope Dog. The Revoltech Panzer is a tad too small. I have the 1/10 Scale Cuvie as well...  |

You know I actually watched the anime and I never caught that lol!! Yeah, it is a play off of Little Red Riding Hood. The backdrop is that it is an alternate Japan. The Japanese sided with the US in WW2, but for some reason they are wearing Nazi-like uniforms. Go figure. The Japanese are in some sort of civil war and these Panzer cops are the specialized riot police, they infiltrate, hunt the revolutionaries. I didn't get it the first time watching, since I fell asleep! LOL, then eventually loved the series and watch the live action stuff as well! Scope Dog, or rather Votoms, that's another series that will flip your mind! LOL!!! |

No, it is a Hyper Hero, more like an action "doll". I will need to fit it in, but I'll shoot the Panzer Cop next to the 1/12 Cuvie... |

Thank you 00silvergt, that’s very kind of you but i already bought 2 Panzer Cops on ebay (48$ with shipping). 5” should be close enough to Chiricos size!
I googled that Hyper Hero Chirico and he looks very nice!never seen this one before!way more anime accurate than the Yamato one. thanks again!
