One thing I like about the Japanese packaging is that each card art is unique with the character's render in the top right corner. Other than that, they're pretty generic and I think I like the normal US ones more.

Never heard of Revoltech but wow, those are great looking figures!! Hoping they are cheaper than $30.00 a figure though because I'd like to pick the set up. Love the different heads/facial expressions idea too.

I wonder if any NA or EU Mint on Card collectors will try to go after these? The packaging is very striking
Nice packaging, I like it.

I've heard of it, mainly because they do a lot of Transformers figures. I think people can get Revoltech figures in the US, but it is through intermediary stores like BigBadToyStore and some such.

Edit: You can also get Revoltech figures off of Amazon too.

I'm going to move on to the Revoltech figures from the standard Playamtes material. I hate Plyamates now. They're as bad as Jakks-Pacific now. Limited articulation, continuity errors, missing paint apps, releasing unimportant characters and skipping important ones...

Yep, these are where it's at... "Gotta' catch 'em all."

So someone please keep us all advised of the pre-order situation, etc.

I have a small selection of the Revoltech Transformers and an Alien and a Predator; none of em were hard to get, really. Ebay'll be fine for these sort of things, just expect a higher price point - maybe around the £25~30 mark? Amazon.co.uk has some of the existing Revoltech too. Some comic shops like Forbidden Planet may get some, though I default to online for these kind of figures. I'm in the UK btw.

Why not collect both? Revoltech only has the turtles confirmed.

Same problem with the Funko Pop! figures. Might as well take up kitbashing if that's true.

This is the greatest thing since the original Neca announcement.

I don't think it's him. I think it's someone pretending for a laugh. His posts seem way too over the top.

Just got a Pre-Order notice on these figs from The Loyal Subjects. I've never heard of these, but I have to say I really like them, not sure why.... Just cool!

The Revoltech figures are spectacular. I would love if they had also obtained the rights to do comic based figures. I love the NECA stuff, but I prefer the look of the Turtles from slightly later in the Eastman/Laird run. I've been waiting forever for figures of those Turtles. Maybe this is my chance!?!?!?
