Hello all, Excellion's here again to ask annoying questions!

I've done a search for Revoltech and couldn't find anything relative but apoligies if this has been discussed in length already. Does anyone know if there are any plans for Kaiyodo to produce anymore Revoltech Transformers? I know Optimus Prime, Megatron, Rodimus Prime and Starscream already exist, but I have this strange recollection that Galvatron and Soundwave/Soundblaster were also going to be produced. Anyone have any info?

No plans to make any more Revoltech Transformers have been confirmed.

Boo! Thank you for the confirmation.

It really sucks because I bought Starscream in the hopes that there would be a Skywarp and Thundercracker repaint. It's a great figure in it's own right anyway, but it'd be awesome to have all 3 seekers posed next to eachother.

Come to think of it, I remember seeing a Revoltech Shockwave somewhere...

The revoltech figures were... meh. Not bad, but could've been better. Prime was all puffed out, and he couldn't hold the Matrix worth squat!

I like the Revoltech figures and would love more.

I have a feeling that the Shockwave figure that was seen was a one off, possibly a custom. Shame really.

IIRC, it was one of those uber-expensive Wonderfest exclusive kits. There was an Ultra Magnus one as well, possibly a Soundwave (can't remember tho) and they cost a boatload and you had to provide your own Revolver joints.

And one with Wheelie and a Grimlock T-rex head, too.

Wasnt the Ultra Magnus one a general release? I have the Ultra Magnus Revoltech figure, just a white Optimus Prime.

There is a fantastic Macross Revoltech that can, with a bit of paint, double as a G1 Jetfire, and it transforms.

I will never understand Transformers that DONT TRANSFORM!!!

^ They're meant to be super-posable, and relatively cartoon-accurate figures. They're really great for showing off action poses. They don't really need to transform.

There are non-transforming Revoltech Macross Valkyries as well. With a little part-swapping, you may not even need to repaint, but you'd have to buy two different ones to get the right head.

Yes, I forgot about that one as it's barely Magnus in my eyes. The exclusive kit one was an actual proper G1 Ultra Magnus with the armor. Not to say that it was armor added onto the white Prime; it was actually just sculpted as he appears in the movie.
