I absolutely love these Revoltech transformers. I think I have all but one or two. Is there a checklist of them all somewhere. And it seems they haven't done any new ones for a while. Any news on future TF releases by any chance?

There are only 5 of them:
- Convoy
- Megatron
- Hot Rodimus
- Starscream
- Ultra Magnus

I doubt we'll see any more Revoltech TFs, unfortunately. I'd be surprised is Kaiyodo even still holds the license to produce them.

That sucks. I guess repaints are in order then. I have two starscreams and plan to do a repaint. Not sure If I wil go with Tcracker or Skywarp or just make up something entirely new yet.

I'd go with 'Cracker. Either way, post some photos!

Cracker is my top choice right now. Since I have at least one person interested in seeing it, I'll do him and post up pics when I'm done.

I never got around to buying any of the Transformers Revoltechs, but I do own just about every one from both the Evangelion and Gurren Lagann lines. They're amazing figures if I do say so myself.
However, if they eventually do release all of the seekers and especially (fingers crossed) Shockwave and Soundwave I would preorder them in a heartbeat.

I agree. I wish they would keep the line going.

They're pretty good toys, yeah. But the fact that UM is a simple Prime repaint, yet we didn't get Thundercracker or Skywarp as repaints irks the hell out of me.

I fell in love with the line after initially getting Megatron. Screamer is such a great looking figure, It seemed a no brainer to do the other seekers. Talk about a lost opportunity!

Not really. I only have Hot Rodimus and he has a tiny head and fragile fist pegs.
That said I love the transforming Macross Valkyries that are essentially G1 Jetfire, even if their revoltech joints seem to be under a bit of a strain at times.
