$500 for that voltron? Fuuuuuuuuuu!!
>>5799627
price gonna drop like a rock when the SOC version releases.
>>5799587
Why bother?
>>5799587
As a millenial who grew up with God Tier mech designs like Gurren Lagann I always thought that Voltron was ugly as sin but this is a decent redesign.
>>5799877
As a millenial who grew up with Voltron, your taste is pretty shit if you're stuck pushing Gurren Lagann for its mech deisgns lmao
Dumbass pleb

>God Tier mech designs like Gurren Lagann
Shit taste confirmed.
>>5799877
This desu, fuck the nostalgia factor
>>5799883
Japanese toy masterrace coming through.
I just want this. Sculpted by Yamaguchi, with glorious ridiculous crotch-thrusting poseability.
>>5799713
Bingo.
Going to love those scalper tears stuck with the Toynami version glut.
>>5799870
>>5799883
REALLY hope he doesn't have to be stuck in that wide stance.
>>5799971
Doesn't have to be. Looks like there is a cut to accommodate a universal joint.
>>5799897
You're kidding right? Gurren Lagann was an attempt at a nostalgia trip, only without the intent to sell toys, which is a negative on this board.
>>5799877
>God Tier
>Gurren Lagann
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You have to be 18 to post here friendo.
>>5799971
Course not. But it does look kinda weird in a straight static pose, cause of the blue and yellow lions touching along the inseam.
>>5799883
>Stand doesn't have the name molded in so imported releases can come with a decal for it to say Golion or Voltron
mite be cool
>>5800019
I'm hoping it says GoLion on the box. Not a big deal either way, but the original iteration deserves this score.
>>5800027
This anon gets it.
>>5799587
Dude, toy collectors have gotten so incredibly fucking poor that MSRP is too rich for their blood. You think anybody with the capital or market acumen to scalp is still trying to do it in anywhere but the most exceptional of cases? Dream on.
>>5800066
>is one click away from standing straight
Yeah, but how much of click is my worry. Will it be a more natural stance or both legs straight together. Another minor nitpick I noticed are the wings. The hinge really destroys the look.
>>5799923
I really hope SOMETHING is annoucned at SDCC. Something that will actually come out and not be left in proto hell.
>>5800066

That's the opposite of how dubs work newfag.
>>5800286
Shit taste still withhold.
>>5800288
You sound like you're blind.
>>5800310
You taste like you're bald.
>>5800236
Holy shit my sides
>>5799898
The OP one technically is an Asian toy, too; Oritoy. They're HK based.
>>5800066
>That looks surprisingly bad.
Its kinda weird that they eschewed the trend in SoC designs of making them super close to the seemless animation style. I know that's pretty tall order, but they've done it with swappable parts. At any rate, this looks closer to an update of the toy than any attempt at doing the anime design. which isn't bad, since a definitive, toy update of Voltron/Golion is needed, but at the same time there's been so many attempts at just that its kinda underwhelming.
>>5800317
>Holy shit my sides
What's so funny?
>>5800341
I'm just glad that they ditched those stupid lips and scrawny, bland upper legs.
>>5800347
How terrible it looks.
>>5800357
Really? I think it looks way better than any other attempt at the original vanilla design.
>>5800357
>toynami buyer's remorse : the post
>>5800357
>going by terrible promo pics
Wait for SDCC before passing judgement.
>>5799870
>>5799883
I actually like Toynami's more. Huh. I'm usually all for worshiping at the alter of bandai and Japanese toys, butt his looks a little too stout. the individual lions look a little better, but overall its conflicting.
>>5800378
Proportions are more cartoon accurate on the toynami version
>>5800371
>bandai's cock defense force : the person
>>5800370
Really? I don't remember any Voltron having SD lions.
>>5800408
>greentext : the implication
>>5800412
>I don't remember any Voltron having SD lions.
I do.
>>5800378
I like Toynami a lot more as well, but the shitty knee articulation really makes it suffer
>>5800378
That looks like a knock off compared to the SoC, like someone added makeshift joints to the original toy.
>>5800421
If you remember the anime to look like this, then you have a problem.
>>5800512
>someone added makeshift joints to the original toy
That's what the SoC reminds me of if anything. Its got the bulky proportions of the original.
>>5800701
You never said anything about the anime in the first place, you wrote "any Voltron" :^)
>>5800355
>not liking the luscious Voltron lips
get out
>>5800227
Think I'm gonna wait to see what Playmates shits out before deciding whether or not to get this.
>>5800725
I want my robutts to look badass, not faggy.
But I guess Voltron being a queer makes sense, those lions always looked female to me.
>>5800712
>what is context
Reading the whole discussion would have helped.
>>5800512
>I've waited so long for this I'll never admit it's even worse than Toynami's meh attempt
Grow up.
>>5800758
Or maybe I was aware of what you were trying to say from the very beginning because I'm the one who posted all the SoC Voltron pics and I'm just pulling your leg a bit.
>3rd parties have surpassed Takara/Hasbro at Transformers
>Now they surpass Bandai
>>5800821
I think it got buried lad.
>>5800865
That's unfortunate, it looks nicer than Bandai's.
>>5800891
Not the version pictured. Dreamworks/WEP approached them with a licensing deal and they were going to release a remolded version that was more accurate.
>>5800891
>It's released since 2014.
Not that version. Looking at the picture would have helped.
>>5800901
I don't think anything was getting remolded just an anime accurate paint job. I've got the original release and barring the minor QC issues its a solid set.
>>5800901
>Not the version pictured. Dreamworks/WEP approached them with a licensing deal and they were going to release a remolded version that was more accurate.
Never happened.
>>5800902
>Looking at the picture would have helped.
Not being an ignorant dumbfuck would help you even further.
It's just a new promo pic that was released in Asia because the team behind KoB heard about the SOC coming so they altered the old render in hope some idiots would buy theirs thinking it was official. There's no "that version", there's only one KoB and nobody ever planned to make another one.
Go ask DW/WEP about that "licensed KoB", they'll laugh at you.
>>5800922
Oh and I should probably add that the whole "it's official" started on TFW2005 thanks to people there being gullible as fuck. People in China were all laughing at it when the pic came out.
>>5800919
No, look at the chest piece, it got remolded. Other parts of Black Lion are also remolded.
>>5800931
ahhh ok. Shame it'll probably never see the light of day.
>>5800922
>>5800930
Alright then I'll take your word for it. I would guess most of us aren't privy to any insider knowledge, or the Chinese toy collecting community, and you seem to know what you're talking about.
That said, I do find it a bit odd that they'd fake an official licensing announcement considering they where blocked in the first place for copyright reasons back when this was first released. Seems like its just inviting more trouble for no real reason. They could've released a V2 under the same cover they did V1.
>>5800421
Didn't they do a chromed version of this one?
>>5800763
What?
I could care less about a Voltron toy, but the SoC does look of better quality.
>>5800701
>tfw the SoC has the arm lions being tiny little shits
I'll still get it over other GoLion toys though, A different box format is gonna trigger my autism so much.
