Can I get some clearer pics...looks cool... but I would need to see more detail to make a final judgemnt...

Reveltech's are all awesome. The only bad thing about them is that they make you want to buy more. I have Gurren Lagann, Enki, Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus, and Kenshiro. Next one I plan on getting is Rei (Hokuto no Ken Revolution), Shin (also from HnK:R) and then Hot Rod down the road. Currently Lazengann is my grail, and I need to pick him up eventually because he has the rest of the Air-Gurren flightpack that I need for Gurren Lagann.

Here have a video review instead. Sound is very low, but you're mostly looking to see it from different angles and all the accessories and poses right?

Lazengann is worth every penny. I absolutely love mine! Revoltechs I have are : Enki, Enkidu, Lazengann, New Movie ver. Evangelion, Unit-01, Unit-01 awakened ver, Unit-02, Unit-03, Unit-05, and the 7-11 exclusive Unit-00! Revoltechs are great "bargain" toys. If I need to buy a new toy, and I don't have the cash some something with diecast, Revoltechs are where I go!

The only Revoltech figures of TF characters I have are Convoy and Megatron but I do plan on picking up Hot Rodimus and Starscream soon.

Since the first series of Yamaguchi Revoltech figures, I think Kaiyodo has done a fantastic job of producing affordable figures with high end toy design. The Revolver joint design is great(mostly) and the sculpting and QC of the figures is impeccable in my experience, which is as follows in my collection list:

EVA-01
EVA-02
Getter 2
Getter 3
EVA-03
EVA-04
Soltic H8
Giant Robo
Convoy
Megatron
EVA-02 1998 Movie Version
VF-1J Super Valkyrie Hikaru Ichijo version
Black Getter OVA Version
Black Ox
Protect Gear Red Spectacles Version
Dancouga
Date Masamune
Sanada Yukimura
Getter Go
Getter Dragon
Neo Getter 1
Sci-fi Revoltech Alien
Sci-fi Revoltech Batman
Kenshiro Kingdom of Shura version
Yuria
Toki

I really like the Revoltech Getter figures, especially the latest ones produced. The Sci-fi line is so interesting. The Alien and Batman have great sculpts. Kaiyodo has diversified the Revoltech line very well in my opinion.

I'm not a big fan of non-Transforming Transformers, but I gotta say I do really like the Revoltech ones. I've only got MEgatron and Starscream, and then my funds got clipped a bit before I could get Convoy and Rod. But I wouldn't be opposed to collecting more Revoltech Transformers if they made them.
I think it came up during the first movies' onslaught of sub-par merchandise, but I hope those god awful Robot Replica p.o.s.'s didn't kill the potential for more Revoltech Transformer figures.

I don't expect we'll ever see more Revoltech TFs. THere were made quite a while ago, and I don't think there were the big money makers that Macross, Evangelion, Getter Robo, and...sigh...Queens Blade currently are. Personally, I'd rather have my transformers stick to Has/Tak and have Kaiyodo put out more Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann stuff. TTGL: Lagann-Hen was absolutely full of great new ganmen designs I'd love to see Revoltechs of!
