Are those Ultra Alloy photos renders or actual photos? I'm getting a Yamato GNU vibe for some reason - probably the glossy finish.

The smaller two pics on the lower left of the 17 pic look like they may be legit but for them and the rest of the picture as a whole, I'm going to go with renders.

It really really looks like a 3D renders to me. Pre order for the transforming version of Daitetsujin 17 is already offered in local store in Jakarta and some HK based online stores (no Japan stores so far?). But it's good that this item is scheduled to be released in October. Means that there are enough times for us buyers, to wait for the actual product pictures show up, hopefully.
I guess most of you already know things can go south with these items from new company...
I'll keep my eyes open for the actual product pictures before deciding. In the meantime, I pre ordered the World Scope's non-transforming version. If it turns out the Imagine/Ultra Alloy version looks good, I will get it too!

Agreed these two threads should be merged into one.

Cool classic Tokusatsu!
Just once for kicks I want them to make an SH Figuarts of a badly dehydrating japanese man and build a suit around him for authenticity.

First off Boxes dont interest me BUT this one is INTERESTING!!Shoebox with styro coffin tray inside and half box overlay with clear window sides! My favorite box next to GX-31V OK here it is,its BIG!! look at him next to KOB!! Hes one of my top 3 biggest robots!if not the biggest! Diecast is all the large red parts..front of feet front of legs and 17 chest block,it has heft this toy,not light but not crazy heavy,but its solid and definately some weight.it has a FUN feel to it blocky with clicking joints,there is one extra part which is the opening chest gimmick,you switch it out with solid part,it opens and closes ,but stock part has no center seam.Im gonna keep sliding part on him not shown.LOVE THIS GUY,NICE ARTUCILATION TOO!!for what this is! screams funtimes!has a sllight vintage feel too,but that is based on design I think..Ill give him a VERY STRONG 8.5!! Cant find any flaws,I would have gave hima 10 if he transformed and had weapons,stand alone he is great and Im hard on bot critiqueing! as y'all know!

In love... this is seriously like a 9.5 for me. Its flawless in every way. The ratchets are like little kisses from baby Jesus. The .5 is from lack of transformation but it is big like Baron said and shown. I feel like I should have gotten a second one because I will probably wear it out from play haha and I dont play with my stuff but it feels so right in hand.
Ill save everything fir the review. If you have experience with 3rd party TFs, the plastic feels very Badcube/Fansprojectish which means pretty damn good and sharply molded
