NEW FIGMA Guyver 3 and Gigantic Dark CONFIMRED
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Matt Bellamy's topic in Guyver
I'd like to manage your expectations and say I'm pretty sure he's just referring to the fact that figures are still coming out. As in the release of Guyver figures is "still going" -
NEW FIGMA Guyver 3 and Gigantic Dark CONFIMRED
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Matt Bellamy's topic in Guyver
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! -
Guyver on the Channel-Formerly-Known-As-Sci-Fi
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to jerrygoodman's topic in Guyver
Ha good find! Thanks for sharing. I'm surprised at how early in the day its showing but nice to see evidence of Guyver getting such public acknowledgement. -
Budget Biomorphs: The Making Of The Guyver Films
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Bio-Boosted Dude's topic in Guyver
https://bearmanor-digital.myshopify.com/products/budget-biomorphs-the-making-of-the-guyver-films-paperback It's out! Has anyone read it? -
Ooph, that's sad. I wonder if it was even really worth their time publishing it over there anyway so not terribly surprising. Fingers crossed they pick it back up when it resumes in Japan
-
Surprised no one has posted this yet but I just became aware of this book: https://thatdomobrien.wordpress.com/budget-biomorphs/ No release date yet but sounds like it will be exciting with never before seen photos and artwork/storyboards.
-
I'm surprised that's a recent illustration, the proportions of the guyver look very much like the early style of the 80s. at any rate, it's very nice to see that there's at least one new illustration in the book - he's still got it!
-
Could you guys maybe post a pic of an example of one that has only been seen split between two pages? It's a bit disappointing to hear there's nothing new but at least Guyver is getting a moment. I'll have a think about buying it at some point over the next couple months.
-
There is a preview of the inside of the book up on Amazon now - nothing new or mindblowing but I'm sure the book will be a nice package. Interesting that there's no proper cover image yet though. edit: cover https://twitter.com/baronend/status/1684102104011636736/photo/1

Ha, fair enough. Love that there's a distinction
-
Woahhh, this is insane news!! I'll definitely be getting my pre-order in. I had actually been thinking a while ago about how much content could fill up a second VDF and was a bit disheartened because I thought such a thing would never happen. Well here we go! Arguably a new chapter would be even better news but I'm looking forward to all the eye candy that comes with this book. It's strange that the Amazon listing is calling it Takaya's "first" art book of Guyver, but that could just be google translate being weird?

Figma Guyver 1 Ultimate Edition (formerly 2.0)
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Matt Bellamy's topic in Guyver
Thanks for posting that! It's great to see the differences in proprtions/shape for certain armour plates, with all variations feeling correct as I imagine Takaya has drawn them like all three variations at different points. -
Figma Guyver 1 Ultimate Edition (formerly 2.0)
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Matt Bellamy's topic in Guyver
Wow I don't really have any interest in collecting figurines (not since buying the Guyver I BFC way back when) but those pictures look great and I am tempted. The sculpt and detailing look tight as hell. Will be interesting to see if it looks as good out in the wild. -
Good post! Reminds me a bit of the merchandise page we had on the old Japan Legend wiki. It didn't get completed before the wiki went down but it was pretty good for the main bits of merch you could get and has the above figures listed: https://web.archive.org/web/20101205073132/http://japan-legend.com/wiki/index.php?title=Guyver:_Merchandise

Very late, but yeah that sound clip is great! Looking forward to seeing how the visual side goes.
-
I think even if we get the story in full, the one thing that I have no problem with never being revealed is what the uranus look like. theres got to be some mystery left in the guyver universe and keeping the creators as such expands our perceived scale of it.
-
Super impressive work! I saw you made a thread last year asking for reference pics to make this - did you find them? This is definitely the clearest look at the movie's interpretation of the Relic ship I've ever seen.

Figma Guyver 1 Ultimate Edition (formerly 2.0)
Bio-Boosted Dude replied to Matt Bellamy's topic in Guyver
Is this the first Guyver I figure without that silly little ab piece under the megasmasher? That part of all the other figures' designs really bugged me - totally unnecessary for creating the impression of articulation when this new solution would have always worked. -
Thanks Matt! Getting a kick out of reading these again for the first time in years. I had since lost my copies of the scans
-
I'm late to this thread but I have a good reason - the pen to my graphics tablet broke just before christmas so I couldn't finish drawing my traditional yearly guyver greeting to you guys. I just got a new one so I suppose it's more of a Happy New Year greeting than a Christmas one - so I hope everyone has ahappy new year!
-
Very sad, he was definitely a big presence and part of this community. My thoughts are with his close ones.
-
Takaya seems to be a very private person so while I imagine he probably paid his respects he probably didn't do it publicly. If he were going to say anything publicly I would rather it be about Guyver.
-
Fingers crossed that the next chapter that comes out isn't a recap one. Though I will probably need one, however many years away it is.
-
Another Christmas, another Guyver drawing! Happy holidays everyone. Hopefully 2021 brings a lot more than just a new Guyver chapter eh (although a new guyver chapter would be pretty great)

I saw them and just fixed it for you UltraGuyver. The broken videos were very weird, there was no in-board way to actually fix it for some reason, I had to right click and use Chrome's "inspect element" and delete it from the code there
