Looks like the Sci-Fi Revoltech line has come to a close. I hope that I'll be able to order an Anguirus from one of these main sites a few months from now. It's a real shame that a line with such potential got shot down by Bandai and taken over by SH MonsterArts (even though I love MonsterArts too).

Has there been an official announcement of the line's demise? It might be over as far as WE are concerned, but all those Iron Man & TransFormers fans could keep it going! :roll:

I don't think that any announcement has been made, but Sci-Fi Revoltech feels dead to me. I'm not interested in any of their other figures. It's a shame they stopped making Godzilla figures and have commenced to stop producing some of the Gamera figures.

I really like the Showa Gamera. He's got all the accessories a Showa Gamera really needs, and his sculpt's really great. If you aren't getting ripped off, you won't regret getting him.

Yes. AMAZING. I love it, and it does fit well with the MA figures, if you have them or desire to get them.

Seriously, awesome. I'd max out at about $50 with REASONABLE shipping.

I can't comment on Gyaos, but Gamera's probably worth 40-45 of those $65.

I mean... If you REALLY want it, don't go a penny above $55 unless you will die without it.

One thing that Sci-Fi Revoltech is doing is expanding the Powered Suit into it's own line, with variant suits & accessories. Yipee. :eh:

There may still be some hope for G3 Revoltechs.

Think about it? There was a 1 year gap between the G1 and the G2 Revoltechs. Its wishful thinking but maybe, just maybe something will suface later this year around fall time.

God I hope not. G3 characters should be in the SHM line.

True, they stand a better chance being SHMA figures. Plus they would be even better (wireless tails).

Of course, that would piss off anyone who bought all the Heisei Revoltech Gameras and were hoping for the last few figures to round out the line. Why SHOULD they be in the MA line, RKZ? There are Gamera figures in the Revoltech series, while no Gamera anything is planned for the MonsterArts line. Right now, more Revoltech Gamers make more sense because it's something they've already done. Just because MA is the be-all, end-all toy line for you doesn't necessarily mean everything needs to be a part of it.

And if we're going to play devil's advocate, wire tails at least LOOK better than a tail with 6-8 separate joints that falls apart right out of the box.

SHMA tails Ive never had an issue with, but none the less it would make more sense if Revoltech completed the Gamera Trilogy and at least they would be WAY cheaper. At the end of the day if anyone produces a Highly articulated figure of the G3 Gamera I would be happy anyway :).

I'm smelling flame-bait in the air...Where's that coming from?
I kind of imagine every TK flame-war actually sounding like this
