PowerofGuyver

So I would have to make an account at Amazon Japan in order to pre-order this artbook, correct?

This idea recently popped into my head as well. But...aside from the 2005 series. The other animated works are well received and liked. Why not try and adapt your creation for other mediums?

In my opinion I feel like it's not a bad story and setting. Young boy obtains great powers, gets thrown into a terrifying world of monsters and evil rulers, etc. It's not a deep thought, provoking story that redefines anything, but it's sure as hell fun! Even the publisher of Dragon Ball stated that there is nothing special about the story. Just characters fighting and getting stronger. Was it the gore and violence? Plenty of successful anime and manga have gore.

So we got a new Figma action figure of Guyver 1, and now an art book. Quite remarkable. I would assume Kadokawa is trying to see if there is still interest with fans, at least in the Japanese market.

I like the larger size. I wonder if there are any army builder soldiers that might scale with Guyver 1. Use them as Chronos trooper stand ins.

I bought 3 at AmiAmi. Why do I need 3 you ask? Because reasons. I really really really hope this figure sells well enough to get us Oswald Guyver II and perhaps Guyver 0.

Customizations would be cool. Just for some extra content within the game. Guyver units can all look so different.

So here is the commission I had done. This is how Guyver I looks in my story. Sorry for being so late. It's hard to maintain a Guyver mood these days given the series is dead. https://www.deviantart.com/emilystepp/art/Guyver-Extreme-Concept-Commission-802115883

Welp, I think that just about does it. Guyver is gone and won't be coming back any time soon. R.I.P

One aspect I would love to see in a Guyver video game is customization. Because why the hell not? Choosing colors, how the sonic globes or vents are placed, shape of the eyes, elbow blades, etc.

Well, I'm still working on this little project of mine, albeit slowly, and only when a Guyver mood strikes me. Anyway, I've been working on a commission with an artist over at DeviantArt to bring my new Guyver design to life. Taking elements from some of the designs, merging them. I decided on Guyver 1 colors Guyver 0 vent and sonic orb placement Guyver 1 eyes Guyver III arm elbow blades It's not done yet, but the rough draft came out fine.

I see, wouldn't citations prevent that however? For example the Dark Gigantic Exceed, we know it exists because of the manga, someone posted a picture of it. Could that be a citation, just s page number of the volume? No one could deny it.

So an open world action adventure? That could be difficult, I mean the Guyver is a hero, but not a traditional one of fighting crime, the US version was, but not the Japanese. How would you craft it like Spider-Man?

I mean, could someone go and update the Guyver wiki? I'm not requesting that, I'm just thinking out loud.

That works for me as well. Fighting hordes of zoanoids, hyper zoanoid and Zoalord boss battles, could be great. *sigh* I pray the multiverse theory is true so I can at least take comfort in knowing there's a universe where the Guyver series is just as famous as DBZ.

One made by Platinum Studios, with emphasis on crazy action. A level based type of set up is best I think, rather than anything open world.

For example the Guyver wiki lacks the info of Guyver III having attained Gigantic Exceed, so it doesn't appear to be up to date.

So guys, this discussion has inspired me to design my own Doomsday within the Guyver universe. The idea of these two fighting just does something for me. I'm aiming to commission an artist for the design sometime soon.

When they say in talks to kadokawa, does that mean to like extend the publishing license for Guyver?

Hey guys I saw this on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Max-Factory-FIGMA-333-Guyver-Bio-Booster-Armor-GUYVER-3-III-NEW/382880766328?hash=item592578d978%3Ag%3ABnAAAOSwl4lbwASI&LH_BIN=1 What are the odds these are bootlegs? Being 62 bucks is goddamn unheard of for Guyver III.

Still, I suppose it's still good to see more merchandise being made. Every little bit counts for us misfit Guyver fans.

Oh that's a shame....I don't collect that scale. *sigh* I guess Figma Guyver II Male will never happen.

So Winter Wonder Festival 2019 is going on right now. And over at the Goodsmile Max Factory section, there was a Guyver I and unpainted prototype Guyver III. They couldn't possibly be redoing Guyver III could they? https://www.forbes.com/pictures/5c600579a7ea432d0765a2ba/wonder-festival-2019-wint-18/#b7725884edcc

Absolutely beautiful. Nice to see some high end collectibles for the Guyver series can still happen. Shame that there's no more Figmas though.

Not Guyver.
