Anyone have any recommendations for toys from the anime series "Big O"? Specifically of the robots? Have always held out hope for Revoltech and or Soul of Shogokin versions of Big O, Big Duo, Big Fau etc... but alas it looks like it's not to be Even still are there any good versions of these? If so worth picking up?

Oh man I remember when Bandai America was going to release toys of Big O 6+ years ago. It's a shame they were cancelled.

Did Bandai America release anything Big O toy wise? I would have sworn seeing some stuff.

I think a 8" PVC figure but it was barely articulated. The 12" figure was the one I wanted, it was shown at some toyshows but never produced.

I remember seeing something that was supposedly in the works, some sort of poseable skeleton with a PVC "skin" on it for seamless movement?

At any rate, I would not count a Big O Revoltech out just yet. I know it sounds like wishful thinking, but Super Robot Wars Z just came out with Big O as a playable character (and how!), so maybe he might get a toy. I wish one would get released, to be honest. I loved the series and would love to own the big guy.

Bandai America released a Big-O figure with limited articulation, packed with a small Roger and Dorthy figure. They also released two sets of mini figurines with most of the cast and robots from the show.

Those still look awesome, please tell me they produced that Big Duo? I'm hoping we get something more though like out of the Revoltech line, I think the show was big enough over here they could sell enough to make it worth it.

That actually wasn't Bandai's that was another company in japan. The 12" Big-O I was talking about was all hard plastic and had electronics if I am not mistaken.

I don't know if that Big-O and Big Duo are the same as the Big-O from the first picture I posted. I've never seen a big version of Big Duo in stores. Searching google, that Big Duo could of been released with two smaller figures, like the Big-O with Roger and Dorthy, but there is no evidence of it.

MaxFactory was working on Big-O and his buddies. Some more pictures I dug up.
