Guyver

I didn't know this.But he died right after he played in the 1991 film from open heart surgery at the age of 54. He was probably the only great actor in that film other than Mark Hamil. I will say despite some of the film's failures. David did play a good version of Richard Guyot in the movie although he was actually supposed to be portraying Fulton Barcas.

need your help on the first edition covers of Chuang Yi Guyver Vol. 1-19, i cant find them anyehere im hoping someone has them in their collection and will be will to help me out. I cant believe these was so popular at one time now very scarce .

So! I'm big into tabletop games and I'm trying to expand my portfolio to start a career as a sculptor. After giving it some thought, I've decided to set about a long-term project: to sculpt every character from The Guyver! I'm going to work through the cast - pretty much every named character I can think of - in rough order of appearance, working from the Manga and the OVA and the TV series. I might well tackle the Western live adaptations as a side project, maybe even do an Out Of Control offshoot. I'm going to be interpreting the characters in a fairly realistic style, but hopefully they'll be recognisable. All will be sculpted at a scale where a human is 28m…

http://www.elitecreature.com/index.php?id=99 Finally up for preorder. Early bird price: $1,180. Gotta say this thing looks stunning, and is my grail piece. Dunno if I'm gonna be able to order it though. Really wish ECC had a payment plan.

translated through Google Alright! Too bad it didn't come out on Christmas...

Okay, my finger has slipped from The Guyver pulse and I sure as hell have a lot of catching up to do, however, when I learned about Valkyria and the new Guyver unit, my first reaction was .... 'Um, whut?' This came completely out of left-field with no foreshadowing whatsoever. So Kronos have created their own artificial Guyver unit? They can do that? Since when? Are we just supposed to roll with that because... boobies? I don't know, I'm just not comfortable with this whole plot twist. It seemed contrived on Takaya's part in order to introduce a wild card into the series, now that Makishima has turned full blown bad-guy. Not to mention Guyot's back on the scene and we…

The topic to discuss new episode of the new Guyver Anime: Guyver: The Bio-Boosted Armor. Please keep all current discussion in this thread. If you have a specific question regarding an older epiosde, please make your own topic, unless a topic for that epiosde already exists.

Hey guys! I apologize if this question has already been asked, but I am in the middle of watching the second Guyver movie and I've made an interesting observation. Basically when Sean first arrives to the dig site and starts exploring and seeing all the different cave drawings and comes to the drawing of the Guyvers, I noticed something. In Sean's drawing there are only three Guyvers depicted, but on the cave wall there are four and I started thinking what if this isn't forced perspective where all the Guyvers are the same height, but rather an actual height chart that depicts: In the bottom left the smallest figure is somewhat of a Muave color and I think…

I'm re-reading the manga after more than a decade and have a few questions that I'm curious if people have any answers/theories for as I'm not sure the manga has any answers. I'm only up to chapter 140 or so (Agito is setting fire to Waferdanos and Sho just learned how to save Aptom from Cabraal's control. Where did the Zoa-crystals come from? In Chapter 80, Balcus says the crystals were by "cleaving and cultivating one of Archanfel's Zoa-crystals" into the 11. I didn't think (but didn't really give an in-depth look) that Archanfel's battle form was any different in the flashback with the creators than it did in present day (as in, he didn't seem to have additional c…

Wikipedia article on Bio-Booster Armor Guyver says that since 2009 its been published in Monthly Young Ace, which is a hybrid Shonen/Seinen mag. Yet, all reliable sources say that Guyver has been continuously published in Monthly Shonen Ace since 2002. I know that for a while there was a debate on Wikipedia as to whether or not Guyver is a shonen manga or a shonen/seinen hybrid, like Evangelon and the last two arcs of Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure became. So does anyone know if Wikipedia's edit on where Guyver chapters are published is right or wrong? I believe based on dedicated manga sources that Guyver is to date published in Shonen Ace monthly.

Younger Brother I showed my younger brother, Jeramee, The Guyver (anime) and he thought it was pretty cool. My Buddy, Winston My Buddy Winston (the one who will translate the Visual Datafiles art book and chinese manga) is a guyver fan now. I showed him the anime, well he borrowed the dvds. I let him borrow vol. 1-7 of the Viz books and vol. 8-12 (not sure ) of the tankoubons. I recently let him borrow the Guyver: Dark Hero dvd and he said the ending fight between Guyver US and Guyver Zoanoid was one of the best fights he has ever seen! Best Friend, Talyn My best friend, Talyn has seen The Guyver anime and he thinks it is pretty cool. So, how many of you have…

do they still sell it or is it very rare and hard to find cuz i want to add to my collection

I have always wondered this. What exactly is the function of the organic portion of the Guyver armor? The purple tentacle things that ensnare Sho for example. Is it like a second layer of hyper dense alien muscle? How durable is it? Is that the stuff that gives the Guyver it's lifting and punching strength? Also, on the front cover of one of the manga volumes were Sho is tearing a portion of the armor away from his face is that even plausible to do? I mean could Sho really remove a certain piece of the Guyver armor if he really wanted to? These are things that have bugged me for years. I would really appreciate the opinions of the Advocacy on these matters. Damn it! I…

Who wants to discuss the differences between the live action movies and the Mangas/Animes? Who do you think will win and why in a fight between Guyver Zoanoid and Guyver 2?

Ok so it's Sho vs 9 cyborgs from the 009 series. For Sho it's him with all his current skills Edit: on second though after seeing the groups upgraded powers again maybe at least gigantic should be allowed. So on to his oppoents. 001 - Ivan Whiskey Ivan's brain gives him several psychic powers, such as telepathy, telekinesis, and extra-sensory perception. These he can use to great extent, and they are powerful enough to withstand enemy fire and overcome a single foe. However, he sometimes falls asleep indefinitely at inopportune times, because his infant body can barely handle the strain of using his abilities afterward.Ivan's telekinetic po…

i apologise for not keeping to the same format as before but its too time consuming!! so instead i'll give an plotpoints of the volume and any other points i think need 'pointing' out! plot points: inside mount minakami aka Relics Point Reichmann Gyro??? aka Richard Guyot is still alive and reveals Agito is part of Cronos to his hostages. Agito reveals he is Guyver 3 Hyper Zoanoid team 5 in the hizouse! Yohei and Shizu are introduced the guyver group and Dr Valcus \ Dr Balcus / Dr.Barcas is surprised by Murakami's first appearance as a (proto) Zoalord. Sho vs. Fumio aka Guyver vs Enzyme 2 observations: more silly translation in chuang yi's version - 'concoctio…

So as you guys all know. Max Factory exhibited many amazing BFC prototypes which never saw a release!! The first of which (and my personal favourite) was this Alkanphel, which they showed us back in 2006 (Yes, you heard right 10 YEARS AGO!!): My question is...........what do you guys think ever happened to them? Kept by the sculptor as a souvenir? Given/sold to a Fan? Packaged up in a box collecting dust in some warehouse? or worst of all.....thrown away!! I would love to track it down someday if it's still in existence!! It would be the ultimate find!! Imagine stumbling across it in some Mandarake store in years to come!! haha!! but seriously, it would j…

Does anyone know Commander Atkins (the FBI agent from the second live action movie) first name?

I figured I would like to contribute to our knowledge of the Guyver universe and decided to start this timeline project. I found a page on the wiki for the real-world history of Guyver, such as publishing dates and the figma releases, but I decided to undergo a research project to find a good flow of time for the universe within the pages. Also shout out to Cannibal for sparking my interest in the timeline itself. Disclaimer: This is not a guide to the events of the manga. What I do is analyze each chapter for time-skips and transitions of day to night or speech that reflects the passage of time. I will try to mention events only for a reference within a chapter. I am…

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_honorifics I've been wondering lately how the various major characters address one another in the original text. In the English dubs, translations and fanslations, we see Sho and his friends address one another as peers, whilst Agito is more of an acquaintance - the high-achieving older student from a wealthy background. Chronos soldiers and officers frequently denigrate Sho because of his age and civilian status, whilst Odagiri's team - especially Hayami - speak to him respectfully, almost in awe. Meanwhile, Agito goes from being the aloof union president to a comrade in arms, and then to a contemptuous bully and even a murde…

http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/p545841999 This is a figure I've never seen before, does anyone have any clues about it? It looks old to me.

So how would our Bio-Boosting hero fair in the necromorph ridden universe of Dead Space? Let's hear what our Guyver experts have to say!

an all out battle to the death between the bio weapons of the umbrella company and the chronos corporation. to keep the fight fair no zoalords or hyper zoanoids

So in Guyver. Who has always been your favorite Guyver villain? I didn't add the Zoalord Sin because he doesn't seem like he's an actual villain because he's more or less have helped Sho. Mine is Richard Guyot. Because he's relentless and arrogant as well as ambitious for more power.

Once again Max Watanabe comes through and posted an image of himself and Yoshiki Takaya. Though Takaya looks very different compared to all his previous photos. Here is to hoping that his weight loss was on purpose and not because of something serious!
