There needs to be more Revoltech Transformers. Revoltech Megatron is so awesome, but it's sad that his only counterparts are fish tank boobs Optimus and Ultra Magnus. Come on! These guys did at least ten Evengelion figures, why stop at three transformers? Anybody else think Starscream and Grimlock would kick major ass? Who wouldn't want a superposable Grimlock with a sword?

Any other ideas for Revolformers?

Galvatron and Rodimus Prime.

I was going to say Revoltech Mirage, but Classics Mirage is so brilliantly articulated, I don't even think we need a Revoltech version.

A Revoltech Hound, please.

They should only do TFs whose transforming toys aren't really poseable. No need for super poseable Cybertron, Classics or Movie figures when the normal versions have enough joints already.

With that said, they should definitely make the newly introduced characters from the 1986 Movie. Especially Hot Rod, Arcee, Ultra Magnus, Kup, Springer, Galvatron and his minions

If the toys would look as "good" as Revolvtech Prime, my vote would have to be for "Please stop torturing my eyes with these monstrosities."

But imagine the inventive poses people would put Arcee & Hot Rod or/and Springer in

Meh, all the slash writers are probably already doing that with MP Megs and Screamer.

The Revoltech guys are better than many are giving them credit for. I like 'em. They're not perfect, but they are cool. Can't wait to get the two Valks they are offering for Macross.

for now, im saving up for revoltech patlabors. but ill definitely snatch revoltech prime and megatron!

i also vote for all G1 characters as revoltechs! these would be like masterpiece action masters!

None of the movie characters..-shudders-

I'd like SS, Thunder, and Skywarp. For the cons

For bots: Jazz, Ironhide, and Wheeljack

Exclusives like Magnus can come off a bit pricey but if you know where to go for them you can get Revoltechs for £10-15, I think that's pretty good value for such well articulated, sculpted and highly detailed figures.

I suppose thats unconsidered expensive by US standards isn't it? The reason Japanese toys seem so expensive to you guys is you don't know how good you've got it right now (although apparently this might change in the near future?). Deluxe TFs cost $10, Here in the UK they are £10, that's twice as much, I guess if I could go down the local shops and buy figures for a fiver each Id think £15-20 was too much fo a smaller more articulated highly detailed non-transforming figure. In a funny sort of way I'm glad I can't.
