New official picture released. It WILL be in scale with the new Figma... Thus will be bigger than the BFC Max figure.

So, I've been poking around YouTube lately looking for broadcasts from the Sci-Fi Channel (no, I will not use the current name, TYVM). One thing I've been looking for are promos from when the channel aired the live-action Guyver films. Lo and behold, I found something! Skip to the 3:04 mark, and you'll find them there!

Well, it's finally happening. I hope they keep the Guyver Figmas coming! We need to get some Zoalords and maybe some human forms too!

IT'S UP!!!!!!

Looks like my silly prediction came true... new Figma releases for Guyver 3 and Gigantic Dark! And colored Guyver Giganitc! Also weirdly, Gigantic Darks eyes are colored... The only downside that a number of people have noticed, is that the scale of the Gigantic's seems to be off... When they showed the first proto-type, it was in scale... But now they seem to be similar in scale to what the BFC MAX line used. HOPFULLY it is just something weird about the pictures... But it is concerning. Also some new shots of the Titanomachina crossover with Guyver. Better shots of the arm blade design, which I am much happier with.

That Dark Hero mystery prototype looks great. So nice to see all the details of the suit so clearly. Here's some other pics I found on twitter of Smile Fest, including some better shots of Takaya's and Max Watanabe's words. That last board with text talks about the publishing of the old vinyl BFC line and various photos that were taken to re-create scenes from the manga. I wonder where those images were originally published. You can use Google Lens to get some very rough translations of various captions which is pretty fun!

Slight update: They actually finally replied on my Facebook group. There have been some delays due to various things, but they are about 95% done they said. still couldn't give a release date, but they are still working on it.

They missed last month... But Papsikels is back this month with everyone's favorite mystery boi... Apollyon!

That's because the table didn't support all of them

One day....

Someone on the Guyver!! facebook group posted an image from this, which made me curious. Found more images and it clearly was inspired by Guyver... And it turns out, it was available on Book Walker... So I bought both volumes, and ripped them. Still completely raw in Japanese sadly. "A clan of monsters that have existed since the Asuka period and protects the emperor from evil beasts called "monsters". Until now, they have continued to secretly fight fierce battles with monsters. The demonic beasts that resisted the Youbu clan evolved by absorbing human knowledge, and some of the demonic beasts that acquired cunning created an organization called the Grudges and tried to take over the human world. A battle for the fate of two races, humans and beasts. What is in its path...?" I uploaded it to my Megadrive if anyone is interested. https://mega.nz/file/CoswRYbK#7icdS0_A6dYci6-dG3O8u6mrr0CrPGA15GbrIi3xu1s It is a short little manga published back in 1992, probably trying to build off of the popularity of Guyver (and similar series) at the time... And it really shares a lot in common with Guyver... - There is an Evil Organization, with a fancy dressed Leader like Archanphel, with transforming henchmen in suits and shades. Though from the description of the series, they are Demons/Monsters rather than upgraded humans. - The hero seems to be quite strong as a human. Definitely above human power. Might not fully be human so he doesn't always use the armor... but the armor is summoned by a bracelet the human has. - The armor seems to be a separate living creature that can fight on its own and is about the size of the Gigantic. Seems to be beast like in fighting when by itself. - The main human can enter the armor and take control, but it is more like being in a mech suit rather than fully bonded like the Guyver. - The armor has a laser sword on its arms, can shot a black ball of energy, and can shoot a powerful large beam, but from its hands, more similar to a Kamehameha from Dragonball. The suit can fly from rockets in its legs. - The suit can also grow to a larger size... Not quite the same size as Gigantic Exceed. Looks to be maybe closer to 30-35 meters. The human stands on its shoulder and issues commands from there. - There is a "Cool Guy" character that helps the main character with fancy shades and a large scar on one side of his face. He uses a long katana like sword instead of a sweet hand cannon revolver. He is very strong and can transform his arms and legs into armored forms. So kind of a Murakami/Aptom hybrid character. - There is a second suit of armor of a darker color. It looks pretty identical unfortunately, but might be some minor differences I missed. The alternate cover suggests it might be green instead of a black like color like it appears in the comic. It is used by the bad guy (Archanphel like guy, who is already super strong), but seems to have been once owned by the main characters... Brother? Hard to say since it is untranslated. - Much more silly moments than the Guyver and a slight bit more random ecchi level nudity.

No idea if official or not. Creator yet to give more info.

GUYS!!!! GUYSGUYSGUYSGUYS!!!!!! JUST SPOTTED ON IG!!!!!!!

I completely missed it, and just had it pointed out... That Steve Wang noted in the Guyver Geek interview he did about 4 months ago that Max factory was doing it... I can't believe I missed that.

A new shot of something we barely saw in another pic... A Proto-type Dark Hero Guyver figure? What's with all the question marks Max? It looks like there is already added articulation in the elbows...

Countach collection update. 432 cars and >113 other items

Spotted this on their IG page: Nice to finally see some news!

Certs updated for WarriorGuyver.com and Japan-Legend.com WarriorGuyver.com updated and menu bar fixed.

I'm celebrating two years of my Countach collection and here's the video. Now it's 361 cars and around 100 other items

Just found this off of their FB page, looks like we'll have to wait a bit...

Yeah, unfortunately Figma's being delayed is almost a 50-50 chance. This likely being a special edition as well ( since 2025 is the 40th anniversary) the chances are probably higher... I'll be buying 2, like I did with Guyver 1... Unless they announce a certain red colored EX figure to be released at the same time... I would just get one of each then, as that is getting too high in cost by that point for me.

I think we'll see more in the Jan/feb Winter Wonderfest, with probably a late 2025 for a release date... This is all going by how long it took the new Guyver 1 figma to go from uncolored prototype to release.

Figma Guyver Gigantic is a literal dream come true. I'm expecting 200 USD for the price. But it'll be worth it, hopefully it won't be too long till release.

HEADS UP, the movie is hitting YouTube on October 31st!

The Guyver parts do look neat, as they are robotic in nature, not just straight design copied over... But about 80% if the figure is just their standard "Gale Hound" base figure (Head, chest and parts to add arm blades). It's a pretty lazy collaberation... One I probably won't be taking part in. It's more like a "character" in the Titanomakia universe of story are fans of Guyver and customized their suits that way.

Looks very "Fan-ish" to me. One that I'll choose over any Hollywood version anytime. Still, good job.

Prime 1 Studios has put out a video announcing the upcoming preorders for 2 "new" Guyver statues. They state Winter 2024 for the preorders to open. Guyver 1 - Comic Art Color Edition Guyver 2 Female

I have gone over the impressive collection and I noticed a lack of Bay-Formers, which is not a bad thing... But also seem to be missing, unless my really poor eyes cannot see him, one of my all time favorites, the Classics Optimus Prime.

I don't remember if I ever posted this on here...

Purgstall's on his way!

Thought you might want to see this...

Finally in my possession! There are already a number of small things I dislike about it... Minor things that you'd think on such an expensive figure would be dealt with... Things I could forgive on a $300 figure of this size. Frankly, I don't think it was ever going to be "worth" the price they charged. Though it didn't have a specific limited number like the Prime 1 statues... This is still very limited. So I guess it's still nice to say I have one at the lowest price it ever will be. Though, to be fair, it was at least cheaper than what I paid for my BFC Max Imakarum... So I guess perspective is one thing...

Congrats Matt. Just replied to your message on FB. Thanks for pointing out the scale descerpency. That's a bit of a miss fire isn't it. Real shame it's 15mm too tall. At least it's less of an issue on a bigger figure. Did a few comparisons with official art and also the figma gigantic which kinda highlights it. At least the figma is looking to be accurate.

Just updated the image, so I thought I'd share my entire collection. It's rather large as it is a collection of images of individual shelves.

Getting closer... https://www.facebook.com/theguyvergeek/posts/pfbid025z4zpZFrJutC5keg8EhdRzg4CmV7bs6aDe4wfxUnZUzToEzm4ELJoAGJkLDeBgT8l

I'd heard about it before, but never thought they were serious about it. Well, I'm down for it.

Looks interesting! https://www.instagram.com/p/DAqohhyPnWT/?igsh=MWZnNGdiZnRnbTM2NQ== On picture 12 - looking in the background to right hand side - there's part of an guyver costume! 🥳 🕵️‍♂️

Something, something, Prime Real Estate something, something.

Lots of really nice looking Countach. The 2021 version looks very similar to the Aventador. Nice, you even have the Transformers Masterpiece version.

Agreed. Dont see a point in reissue. Wouldn't mind a new G3 at this larger scale and a Gigantic Dark to go with it. But honestly would like to see some other characters instead.

New update released today for security fix for the software the board uses, thankfully it installed without issues
