The Brocken Labor in the first pic (which looks rather knightish) and the Helldivers are both military labor from the patlabor series. They are my fav in the patlabor series, I like them much much more than the main mecha Patlabors themselves. Hope the Brocken Labor would come with the labor-sized MG42. The next thing I would wish for in the Revoltech line will be the pods, glogs and destroids from the Macross series. We hardly get figs of those.
I have the Revoltech Saber and I already order YOTSUBA&! one too. Which everyone should be doing the same!
I dun go for revoltech figurines or mecha
I am very interested in their new line of all female revoltech figures, the joints are all very well hidden
Agree, I really like their version of Rei Ayanami because of the well-hidden joints. Their Yotsuba also is cuter than what I have seen online. Completely work safe, might get both of them :)
Revoltech figures are quite good. Not too pricey, and their articulations are definitely better and at times smoother than western-made (eg: McFarlane) action figures I own. I preordered Yotsuba, which should arrive around late September. Can't wait to pose her with all the miniature scale guns and weapons that I have. (^__^)
I have a modest collection of only 3 Revoltech. I haven't seen any shoddy paint jobs on the ones I own though. All of it is crisp and rather accurate. The new Patlabor ones look great!
I have Roy's valkyrie, I always thought it was the coolest. But it cost around 100 USD so I don't think I'll buy another for a while. I can put it in the three different modes and it can shoot projectiles, already lost three lol.
helldiver revoltech! that and the tetsujin 28 are on my list! :3
Revoltech line is getting better and better. I got myself the Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus figures. Really impressed by the level of detail. Next up will be Valkries. I hope they come out with a Gurren Laggan version. That would be hot!
I got a few Revoltechs and plan on getting many more. I really like the small size and have been real happy with the paint jobs. I love the Getter Robo stuff. I am a big fan of classic mecha like that.
I like the Patlabor Revoltechs, especially the Helldiver (the green ones). The other grey ones are the Brocken ones used by the military. ;) I don't know what's different in the new Ingram 1 aka Alphonse either.
I watched Patlabor and liked both Brocken and Helldiver very much. The Brocken especially, is a more worthy opponent for Patlabor as compared to all the other industrial use Labors. Helldiver with the military knife pose is awesome. On the other hand, I don't really like the figure of Rei. Purely personal opinion of course, but the many joints on her body makes her look very mechanical. The finishing look is being sacrificed for the articulation. I bet it will look worse when some paint fall off after a while #.# I would go for her figurine instead.
Revoltechs are good and all, but action figures never really hit it for me. The joints and stuff make them look weird, while static figures don't (because there aren't any, of course). The Figma line might change that though, the joints aren't as obvious as one would think.
wah cant wait for the evas ^__^
Nice pics. They look great unpainted. Tons o'detail. I really like the look of the new fraulein series. Might get Asuka, but im not very creative with my poseable figures. I tend to keep them in one boring pose - i dont 'play' with my figures. Id rather have a large, good quality, pre-posed one.
OMG. They should totally do a GAOGAIGAR revoltech. That would totally blow my mind.
http://122.212.159.49/archives/img-f/2007-08-14-6-401.jpg It's a revoltech figure you missed out at Wonderfest 08 Natsu.
the first time i've heard of revoltech, i thought it's some kind of a new Macross figure series XDDD
i like the Eva revoltechs i currently own Eva-01 and saving moneys for more.
Excellent. They releasing the military patlabour (Can't remember the model name). Hope they will release it with both SMG and heavy MG weaponry.
I got two Revoltechs so far, Saber and Black Saber. I normally don't like their humanoid ones since I prefer them in a static figure pose, but the sabers were an exception. I wouldn't mind a Mecha Revoltech one day.
The problem with human revolvtechs are that the joints really show up badly and makes them look odd. Mecha kits are far less affected. Having said that, I own the saber and dark saber revolvtechs. but the joints are fairly well hidden under the armour. I don't really see the point of revolvtech rei, Asuka or Rin tho. Or the macross one since, for me, macross stuff have to be able to do the transformations!! The one Revolvtech I reeeeeeeeeally want tho, is the revolvtech dangaioh!! It's the only merchandise i have ever seen of one of my fave mechas of all time!!! But it's proving to be rather elusive at the moment.
woah more patlabor and macross revoltech .. i'm sure gonna be collecting those!
I quite like the Ayanami actually. Seeing an articulated Rei is nothing new really what with her Microman and Action Figure Special Box incarnations.
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on some of the Macross VFs, Azuka and Tetsujin 28!! I really love the Revoltech figures, if I was made of money I'd definitely try and get every figure that they bring out but alas I can't afford all of them.
And a new Shin Getter to match my Mazinkaiser! Good golly, that thing'll be sold the minute it arrives here, I betcha. And if it ain't, I better have cash...
I would buy some in a second, but the only place I can find them is online, some web sites that I have never heard of before. Can anyone recommend a reliable site to buy these from (preferably in the US)? I would appreciate it. The patlabor figures look superb, even though Im not into them that much.
the eva ones are interesting so many models --> i can't tell which is from which
Lot's of evangelion figures. Soon will be released the new animations of evangelion. Revoltech is investing in evangelion.
Yep I love my two Revoltechs that aren't from the original line of Revoltechs. I recently picked up the "2G" Revoltech Second Generation versions of Saber and Dark Saber. The Megatron one looks mighty tempting to pick up... yes the G1 Megatron!
I own Revoltech Dante(from Devil May Cry 3) and I've just preordered Yotsuba (http://www.hlj.com/product/KYD01142). My only problem with the figures is the height - only 4 inches high.
Got a fair few Revoltechs there are many around in the shops and at a very reasonable price of US$12 they don't hurt my budget. I have most of the Evangelions love the posibilty.
Dragun: Try HLJ.com. They have good prices IMHO.
R-1, Thank you, amazon.com also had a couple for pretty cheap.
I love the Revoltech figures. Just picked up the Eva 03. Great jointing system. Takes a while to get used to. I like their size. 5 inches is good.
Want Eva figures!
