Vinyl figures are great for cutting up to make suits for Microman Material Force figures, too.

Definitely considering getting the Revoltech Pixar stuff. Could you show us some pics of them with MU's?

theArchivist · 10-14-2015, 10:31 AM

I only have Mr Incredible and Sully. They are currently in storage but I'll try and dig them out for some scale pictures.
I tried to find some online but didn't have much luck with a direct comparison picture.
I wish some of those reviewers would put some other common object of figure next to them so that we could get a better idea of scale.

Sully is waaayyy undersized and is about the size of a large Ewok but Mr. Incredible is perfect for MU. I'll look for them when I get home from work.

I did run across this image but I don't think that Spider-man is 1:18.

Some decent reviews but no scale images
Dan the Pixar Fan: The Incredibles: Mr. Incredible Revoltech Figure
Dan the Pixar Fan: Monsters Inc: Sulley Revoltech Figure

And speaking of Revoltech, there is also the non-transfroming Transformers.

These guys are about 5" and I like to use them as Drone type figures with MU especially Death's Head.
The head on OP is a bit small but I like the rest of the figure.

Monster Hunster Karyudo

I've also added all these to the Archive (see link in signature)

So I managed to get both packs now and I hadn't realized how different they are.

The Karyudo pack has 2 repaints of the Karyudo "G" Red Monster hunter.

These are the Blue and the Gray figures while the Red is the same figure and paint scheme (with all Black swords instead of red/black).

The Karyudo has a repainted Sword/Comb weapon (the "G" version is black, the Karyudo is multi-colored on red).

The Silver and the Gray "G" figures have different head sculpts entirely.

Other then that the rest of the figures are the same with same weapons that are repainted (or not painted at all).

There are also the 1/144 Gundam model kits. They come in at about 5". I like to use them as larger robots.
I can't say I like the design of all of them but some are really good.
I particularity like these:

This one is about 4"

And there is the D-Arts MegaMan/Rock Man. He is a bit bigger kind of like Ninja Turtle size but with some clever placement he works great.

And I like other weird robots that are in the 3"-5" range

1/144 scale Bear robot is about 3.5" These come in a bunch of colors

Wego robots are about 3" also come in bunches of colors

theArchivist · 10-23-2015, 10:26 AM

So I got this 1/144 figure to see what size they actually are since I've never really seen one.

Bandai Hobby HGUC #19 MSM-07S Z'GOK "Mobile Suit Gundam" Model Kit (1/144 Scale)

So this one does't have any paint and just comes molded in colored plastic. That's okay with me because I planned on painting it anyway.

but here are some MU scale pictures of the actual kit with some different body type figures.

They are very articulated and well balanced

And can be put together in a bunch of different ways

theArchivist · 10-23-2015, 10:43 AM

And the D-Arts Mega Man

These are an American release of a Japanese IP. Do you want to include lines like these in this thread?

Ninjinister · 11-16-2015, 09:54 PM

I was gonna pick up a couple of those but DAAAAAYUM are they expensive!

I've found that the bandai model kit ones fit better in scale to MU/MI.
They let Megaman keep his more boyish aspects, and the X series scale well too. Especially if you get the power armor for the Vile kit.

I'll try and do pics of those tomorrow.

Sure why the heck not?

On a completely separate subject, I need to take some action shots of my Monster Hunters bc they are awesome-o. I highly recommend tracking them down.

theArchivist · 11-24-2015, 11:58 AM

Came across another figure. Not sure how many are in this line though.
CMs Mospeada Riding Suit Figure Set

More images

Scale - farthest on the left.

boombatty · 12-01-2015, 08:42 AM

I have seen these in a 2 pack (they are on eBay). I think there are 2 at the 4" size.

domu · 12-01-2015, 11:02 AM

There are lots of different versions of the 1/18 CM's Mospeada figures. I think I have around a dozen. There are different characters with Ride Armors in different styles and colors. Then there are exclusive versions in metallic and clear types, very reminiscent of Microman. Also, CM's released some non-poseable versions of the characters without any armor.

The small scale combined with the intricate engineering that makes the transformation possible makes for very delicate and fiddly toys. These will try the patience of even the calmest person.

(Not my pic, and unfortunately, all the links to the page are now dead.)

Madame Warlock · 12-02-2015, 01:52 PM

Can someone remind me of those fantasy/Monster Girl figures that were posted a while back...

theArchivist · 12-02-2015, 05:00 PM

These?

Monster Hunter - Motion Revive Series

theArchivist · 12-04-2015, 12:09 PM

Here are CMs Mospeada Riding Suit Figure Set with Snake Eyes there for scale. I also came across the Pixar Revoltech Sully figure (without his head) Mr. incredible is taller than this and matches well with MU.

theArchivist · 12-10-2015, 06:33 AM

More Kamen Rider SHODO figures are coming. April 2016

And a secret figure...

theArchivist · 12-10-2015, 06:45 AM

Found these too

One of my accepted failures as a toy collector is not being able to get my hands on those Appleseed figures. I want that Landmate figure BAD. I've had a saved search on ebay for years for that line, but it has absolutely not panned out... sigh.

Foreddyn · 12-10-2015, 09:46 AM

I hear you brother. Mine was the Predator/Alien snap-kits. I should have bought those when they were $100-150 a set. But the budget couldn't align with life. *sigh*

theArchivist · 12-10-2015, 11:34 AM

I passed on the AVP ones too. HIYA toys did come out with some Xenos and there are some Colonial Marines and a Power Loaded coming soon but they are pretty pricey.
