Is anybody else into the Revoltech stuff, like Assemble borgs? Their release has been rumored since late last year I believe. The lot of 'em were just shown @ Revlotech Expo '07. They're actually kinda "Microman-escent". More to the point I was wondering If anyone has heard of a more definite release date.

Trust me, if I knew...... One thing I do know is that dis' mofo is baaaaad! "Jarknoid XO On the far side of the moon is a crevice, a few centimeters wide, a few kilometers long. Here is a gateway to another universe. This is where this rare breed of sorcerer has come from. His sorcery has the ability to distort every law of physics. Power Transform with Evil Powers! The Jarknoids are capable of changing form and gaining powers through the use of super space science and sorcery. An ability similar to that of the Assemble Borg’s Unlimited Combination Power, but……!? Torture Mania Has the power to instantly turn any creature he touches into minced meat. His attributes suggest that this is a transformation by the Jarknoid Zain. Acid Worm With the appearance of a symbiosis with a space creature, it is thought that this monster which lives in strong acid is the transformed appearance of the Jarknoid Yeeg. Devils Blood His demon-like appearance suggests that this is the transformed version of Jarknoid XO, a combat form gained through an unknown power." His description alone is SOFAKING bad-azz! *drool* Info courtesy of : Cool Japanese Toy Newshttp://www.figures.com/databases/ac...setup&category=cooljt&topic=5&show_article=82
I need to get me one o them Revoltec bots. I'm just holding of cause it might end up as another thing i'll want to collect.
I really like the Revoltechs...inexpensive, but fun as heck. Good selection of series, like Patlabor, Dougram, Tetsujin 28, Getta Robo, etc. Good stuff!
I have maybe the first ten releases. I really wish I had kept up with it because they made a lot of toys of the robots I like best--but vinyl took over. The Shunya Yamashita Pocco figure (the hot fantasy babe with the sword) is on order, but I'm just waiting for GoDannar to hit the scene.
