Luckily I did get a vinyl statue of the manga version, but it's a little shitty

>>15800386
I recently watched the OVA and I'm surprised seeing the Shaian mentioned.
It was a pretty neat design for sure.

>>15800387
I would say that's fitting, but it would need to be 100% pure shit to match the series it's from

Pretty much anything from Victory and F91.

Funny thing is, I tend to only watch mecha shows if they have high potential for merchandising.

I grew up with Gundam video games such as G Generation and it took 20 years for them to finally release MSV things like GM Cannon and Sniper Custom.

Gundambabies GTFO, you have so many choices it's disgusting. Don't even compare your snowflake MSV not getting released in X series when there's entire shows like Gorg which go almost completely ignored in this regard

This one really hurts. I want SHFs of Jiban, Janperson, Gungibson, Bill Goldy, etc so badly.

This is going to sound churlish, but Macross. Sure, all your bases are covered for the later series but arguably there's not really a definitive VF-1 yet.

>Yamato figures all have QC issues, or are insanely rare and expensive, or both
>Arcadia figures are more solid and refined, but still based on toolings that are like a decade old and behind the times
>Bandai Hi-Metal Rs are based on a seven-year-old tooling with minor refinements, lots of cut corners and releases are super-inconsistent (earlier versions don't have the neck filler or head ball joint, most recent Hikaru has a blue cockpit for no apparent reason, can't decide on what shades of grey and white to use for movie vs TV, etc)
>Bandai DX Soul of Chogokin announced in 2015 turned out to be vapourware

Meanwhile there's like a million variants of something from Delta that had like two seconds of screentime and is overdesigned as shit, and they're all perfect in every regard.

>>15800386
You can buy a handmade resin kit or figure of it if you look around obscure anime conventions in Japan. One time I saw a pretty nice, painted model of him for only $500, which I assume is reasonable for what it is.

>>15800914
>>15800952
Of course, freaking Bandai is always passing up the THICC suits just so they can remake another skinny-ass Cosmic Era Gundam with too many spikes, edges, weapons, and gimmicks.
Why must they hurt us so?

Not a huge fan of the design or the colors (lots of white or off-white in GM or Gundam types)

However, I love the Titan's Test Team mobile suits. They look amazing. Also, their names are homages to one of my absolute favorite novels of all time, "Watership Down".

wonder how much would that figure go at an auction (guess it depends how many MD geist fans are aware of the fig and auction).

I'm one of them. I'd love to see Sen-Ti-Nel do a figure of the armour based on pic related. Seems like a project that would be in their wheelhouse.

>>15804555
Reminds me, do we have any decent artbooks of the OVAs? A casual check of E-H didn't get me any results.

>>15804555

I know M.D. Geist didn't make much of a splash at all in Japan when it came out but I'm a little surprised there was no kit build publication that had some interest in the designs in it. I guess a designer's length of time working and a title's impact do account for actual reception.

There is a RAR of the Complete Works somewhere. If this thread is still active in a few days I'll post it, it not I'll make a separat thread.

The CPM DVD is loaded with concept art but it's all loaded on as individual videos and because it's all on one disc it's compressed to fuck.

>>15804625
Thanks for the hint. Google pointed me towards a file that contained some of that art.

I have a Duo that's probably old enough to vote.

>>15804886
Is that the old Bandai Anime Collection figure? How's the articulation on it? Most of the pictures I've seen it and Big O seem like they can't move their knees for shit.

>>15804892
yeah it is (the roger and angel mini figs have long since been lost)

the legs barely move at all, and the arms move about as well as they look like they do in the anime, as to say not much at all

My greatest regret is blowing my cash on that for like 30 dollars in some hole in the wall comic shop, and then on the way out noticing a die cast OVA Giant Robo figure sitting in a bin on clearance for $25, it had like 10 stickers on it of descending price.

by the time i came back a week later with more money it was gone

Broke an arm on its first tumble, iirc

>>15806715

I thought they released plamo of some of them?

>>15806720

No Verus though. The Formula is the only one Kotobukiya ever released as a kit. It's also kinda hard to find even living in Japan and for a kit 6000 yen (or more depending on where you see it) is a bit steep IMO. You can get two really solid MG for that much.

>>15806715
All the doll have the same inner frame, don't they? If yout really ambitious you could make a custom for the fromula model.

>>15806727

It would be like rebuilding the entire model as the Verus is rather round and the formula is very angular.
