Saw this image floating around recently and was wondering what line it belonged to. That Gamera sculpt looks amazing! If the final painted product looks just as good, might have to pick one up.

My Big Chap came in! I had to take him apart, since there was wrapping between his chest. But now he's working good!
My Alien Warrior figures left arm likes to keep popping off sadly, and my G2 Gamera has got to be my least favorite figure yet that I own. I'm hoping when I get Legion it will be fine!!

Thinking about getting the Revoltech Anguirus despite the price. I don't think I can resist any longer.

Best price I've seen him for.

^ Wow, those protos look GREAT! I didn't even know that there was going to be an Irys, but I guess it makes sense, as in the past Kaiyodo has always done a nemesis when they've released a Gamera... :D

Aren't those just the old Xebec figures, though?

Don't know. Were unpainted protos of the Xebecs ever shown off? Someone who can read Japanese could answer those questions...

They are Xebecs that someone mistook for Revoltechs and it just took off. It's been mistakenly floating around several Facebook groups as Revoltechs for a few days now and has been corrected numerous times.

Had a feeling they were the Xebecs. I think I even stated it in this thread.

I recall hearing that the Xebecs were articulated. I guess the question is how old this photo is, plus why this it's circulating now.


In other news - who wants to see the Legacy release of Legion? :D

This is an awesome-looking release. The box is big and fancy, with a surprising insert screenshot.

Legion herself is even more of an absolute beauty. The sculpt and paint on this figure alone are pretty much worth the price. I'm still getting the hang of utilizing the joints with the sculpt, but good grief is she articulated!

Overall she is a splendid purchase. I definitely recommend picking her up if you don't have the first release.

The Facebook group S.H.Monsterarts Lover Thailand posted a picture of what might be revoltech Gamera '99 and Iris. Some in the comments claim it not to be but I just thought I'd point it out.

Pretty sure those were proven to be the Xebecs.

If they were the yellowish prototypes, then yes, apparently they're Xebec.

It's the Xebec. I own one, and the sculpt/pose/articulation is a perfect match.

Yea, I know. I have the Irys. The fact it's still being passed around as legit is getting annoying.
