Oh well, it can't be all That bad. For the most (and Best) part, the revoltech joints have proven to me Useful for making customs and repairing the broken Left shoulder on my MechaColle Mazinger model. ;D
Now, the shoulders on the Revoltech Grendizer, I gotta admit, is indeed Overkill... he Didn't have to be so "Shruggish" in order to display such a dramatic battle pose... ...Kaiyodo Could've just molded simple shoulders on him and still get that same dramatic effect. Instead, Grendy's doomed as the "hunch-back" of the Revoltech line. Nice detail and paint job, but a rather weird shoulder assembly. I'd still score him, but I'm also reluctant to jump on it right away. The #36 Getter1 robot has simple shoulders and he strikes some Badass poses when I put the gats in his hands.
Now we're looking at the Revoltech SFX line, and so far the obvious quirk is the Predator's Big-ass head... head so damn Big that angels braid his hair! ;D
Otherwise, the SFX line has been consistent with their sculpts and details on the characters they've released so far. Let's hope that consistency in quality continues, at least throughout the SFX line as far as it will go.

Predator - looks so cool Gigan - so great love the bendy tail and extras Gunbuster - Needs Height !
overal they're cool. predator is bad a$$. from the pics i thought the head was too big , but really its not. the retractable claws and little extras are great.
gigan rocks. the ball jointed tusks and mouth opens and closes . Like it a lot
i haven't transformed Gunbuster, yet . I will try at some point. very fun .

I love the Predator figure. Wish it had come with an open mouth "screaming" spare face/head thou. One question; Is your Predator sort of flimsy? Mine feels like it is way too heavy for the joints in the waist and legs...

i got my iron man today, pretty damn awesome i must say. If your a fan of the figure a definite must have, paint app great, poseability, awesome........ I only wish he had some of the opening flaps and what not found in the hot toys figure but thats probably asking for too much. one thing worth mentioning, the flap info shows pics of man-o-war, whip-lash, and black whatever her name is.... its all in japanese but maybe there are hopes for other figures..... i would love the wip lash suit an definitely man-o-war.

heh ;D Man O' War = War Machine/Iron Monger!!! heh LOL! ;D Hey dont laugh! He got the Black Widow part wrong! And since when did Man O' War appear on screen in a movie? Since this is a Revoltech SFX line for characters that have appeared in a film, it would not make sense at all for Man O War (only appearing in comics) to appear in this figure line. I was just wondering whether Mechamasterj may have been mistaken.....

I was just kidding w/ you and I am no expert either when it comes to remembering names, except usually hot, sexy Women! BTW...I don't know if you knew it or are doing it purposely, but your signature Photobucket pic above your Gundam Vault link says its been deleted or moved... -B

I second that themazingerz its the second best thing to the hot toys..... i know that may sound like a far cry but really there are no other quality iron men out there that are as articulated as this one.

Do all the joints use revoltech joints? I really want one of these but I've had bad luck with revoltech joints breaking in the upper leg/crotch.

I almost broke a joint on my Dangaioh revo a few nights ago. So, yeah, we gotta be very careful how we handle and move the limbs..... ....before I bend a limb, I look at how the joint is facing by looking for the "cross" core inside the joint--- it shows in the sides of the joint. That way I'll know which way to bend the limb.
If toys could Scream, I'd be deafened from all the toys I've ever broken in my lifetime. ;D

EDIT:
Got the Iron Man as well . Its cool. I like this one a lot . Accessories are cool too. I finally have SHF Kazuma - it was in the shipping box. What i like best is that Iron man is in scale with SHF figures .
