LOVE Assemble Borgs..I have the first 3 figs with bike and they're great!

These new ones take on a much different direction than the first wave....definitely cool.

Would love to pick one or two up. Nice answer to Takaras Micronauts. It's all about the Revoltech clicking...

Temporary fix while I wait for some cheap OG Walder reissues to pop up, for some full size suits.

Aside from the head, that fits on way better than I would have expected... I always forget how slim the Skull Toys suit is.

It's actually a mini sliced up, that's why the head looks funny. It's just sitting on top of the Assemble Borg head.

It does fit surprisingly well!

Oh gods, enough with the crotch-thrust posing. My blood pressure can't take it! :P

Anyway, nice toys--I could just never get over the somewhat spotty QC. Almost every Revoltech figure I got had at least one or two loose joints or some bit that wouldn't fit right...and because the figures tend to be delicate as it is, that kinda ruined the experience for me.

And I'm just guessing the licensed character figures sell consistently better than the Assemble Borg guys.

according to sagae-san (sculptor for kaiyodo/revoltech, presented at g-fest 2011), they have to sell 10,000-20,000 units to break even and consider moving forward with the next release. at least for licensed characters, i'm led to believe.
