He looks cool but I don't know the character.

The G1 Wheeljack replica Rally Car Collection is more interesting.

Yeah the 77 is the perfect wheeljack model, how would I go about getting one?

He's a pretty neat transformer, looks like MP quality.

Sorry I really know nothing about Japanese stuff. I'd really like that Lancia Stratos though.

Damn it I love Wonder Festival! I was hoping that he would be a new transforming Transformer, but I enjoy the Revoltecs so much that I think I'll enjoy this as well. If anyone enjoyed Zone as much as I did, I'm sure they will appreciate this figure.

What is his size gonna be?? and who do I have to bribe to get me one??

by **Decatron** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 5:12 pm

Wow he looks cool! I have never heard of him/seen him before though either.

by **Khaotika** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 5:13 pm

Well, he's pretty, but I think I'd prefer some of the Destron Generals in cape and crown, particularly Predaking.

Quality is very nice, and the paint scheme is very spiffy!
Too bad he doesn't transform, or that would be one really cool toy.

by **AMX** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 6:31 pm

he does look cool, but as it was said, too bad he doesn't transform. I am tired of "non-transforming" transformers. some are ok, but not all of them. Unless they are done like the robot heroes, because they are cool.

On a side comment: What the heck is up with all the mostly naked female models in there, that is nuts! Holy cow, or should I say "Holy sexy plastic figurines batman"!! :shock:

It's about time Dai Atlas got some love. The original toy is the precursor and (in my opinion) superior of Star Convoy. I was lucky enough to pick one up from Yahoo Japan a couple of years ago. He only appears in the TF:Zone OVA, which is worth watching for the animation alone. Good thing too, because the plot is rather by-the-numbers. Metrodome have been promising to put it on their Japanese TF box sets for... ooh... three years, now?

Anyway- Dai Atlas. Yay. I'll stick with the transforming one, though. It's bigger, it's motorised, AND it's a Micromaster base.

Looks more like KO quality to me...

The wiffle hammer's a nice touch, though.

So is this going to be released under the Revolvotech banner or is it a CMS exclusive. I have a set of Brave Action figures from CMS and they're pretty good.

News Credits: 17 · by **JTKranix** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 7:20 pm

I must have this.

BEAUTIFUL!

But I don't collect non transforming Transformers...
Might change my mind if he comes my way...

That's Goldymarg from Gao Gai Gar, the last of the Brave shows.

Why does he look like a gundam? I think i may be able to make a mech like that in armored core. I may have to break out AC and try.

I would love to get my hands on this guy, is there any way to order him?? what is the availability, do they see a market for him outside of Main Land Japan? I love this guy and from what I understand there is another guy that hangs with him? What about Star Saber? I would love them to do him as well as Road ceaser. I may have not grown up with Generation One but I don't live under a rock either, those guys were Sweet!!! Getting a non transforming Anime version is okay by me..

It's an exclusive for Wonder Festival.
Look at eBay over the next couple months and you may just catch one.
Happy hunting, mate!
