Whichever company between Action Toys or Pose+ produces their Albegas first, I will be buying 7 copies of it. To have every possible combination displayed. Possibly an 8th copy to pose the 6-arm Matchbox Voltron art. lmao!
oh wow you just destroyed Voltes v fans lol
i would say get one to test how good its then get multiples
for me i need only 1 copy thank you
i feel it will be like Voltron, it will be raining with Albegas

I don't know how tricky Albegas license could be... ET has made two of them and I remember someone doing or at least showing vynils a few year ago, I dont remember if they were released. I think the problem is that Albegas is a niche obscure robot, only popular in Italy... I saw the anime here in Argentina in the mid 80s, and even when there wasnt even cable TV, most people don't remember it. The fact that many hardcore collectors like us want it makes us think it has a big demand but I think its not the case... and believe me I'm a big big fan...

thats why i said its a gray area
its unknown who owns Albegas rights right now and i couldnt find any info regarding this subject
you have a strong point about about ET and the huge statues, which adds more gray to the license, the EM Gokin was exclusive to some stores and it sold out like crazy, also the reaction from the DX by Action Toys was very good i dont think the robot is unpopular i think there is alot of people who would like to own a figure or two, man mrclean08 said he will buy 7 copies lol
its just one of those robots who get ignored by companies, just like my beloved Bismarck and Zanda Cross

I always read that name as "I'll beg ass."
Moving on.

I'd really like to see Pose+ do a Pegas and Tekkaman. I have confidence that they will someday. I never got the CM's Brave Gokin version, but was always intrigued by it.

CM's Tekkaman & Pegas is quite good. Only issue I have is Pegas's hip joint design, which is pure friction. The legs have good diecast, making them a bit heavy, resulting the legs can swing and slide side to side like a pendulum. They should have used some ratchets instead. But the rest is great. Tekkaman is like a very articulated Microman. Aside the hips, and overall relatively simple engineering, its a nice set I quite enjoy, and don't feel like it need a replacement.

Seeing what Pose+ is doing with their upcoming Baldios compared to what CM's did with their Brave Gokin 19, I would love a replacement for Pegas & Tekkaman. Plus for those who missed out on the CM's version of Pegas/Tekkaman, it is quite difficult to find now.

Quite true. They did make Godam. So it wouldn't be too surprising if they go for Pegas as well, and Tekkaman tagging along as a set would be a given.

Just curious what release you meant in your post, since Yumcha didn't post in this thread recently. But in terms of Gs, pretty sure he dropped a bunch just by looking at his Macross or Metal Build shelf. Were you referring to POSE+ Sasuraiger (green train)?
