While New York Toy Fair 2013 was going on this past weekend, so was Winter Wonderfest 2013 in Japan! With that came a surprise by Good Smile Company/Max Factory in the form of their upcoming Figma Guyver figure(based on the anime, not the live action version with Mark Hamill)! The only one shown was Guyver I, Sho Fukamachi! Do you want to see Guyver III(Agito Makishima) and some Zoanoids?
Image of the new Figma Bio Booster Armor Guyver figure comes to us via the Amiblo Facebook page. Click on the thumbnail to take a closer look.

Hellz yeah I want Guyver III....AND Zoanoids....AND Guyver II...AND the hyper-Zoanoids!!!!!!
I've been waiting for SOMEONE to pick up the Guyver license now that the Max Factory figures are out of production and ridiculously expensive. I thought Revoltech would grab it (which would lead to awesome interchangeable Aptom parts), but Figma will do nicely.
YESSSSS!!! Bring on the Guyver Franchise! Got most of the Max Factory ones, but I want some "toys" and not poseable statues like the Max Factory ones were intended to be!
And I swear, this Figma looks EXACTLY like it. Even the vibro blades look like the same removable ones.
That's nice!
Awesome! Ever since I seen both the US movies I want a Guyver figure and this will do nicely.
I want one. How much do Figmas usually run and how big are they?

Apparently the manga is pretty long-running and Makishima evolves into some super version of Guyver III...forgot what it was called.

The first movie was too watered down and the second was pretty much an ultra violent Power Rangers movie with David "Solid Snake" Hayter as the Guyver but a step in the right direction.
Don't get me wrong I watched the shit out of both of them when I was younger but I tried watching the second recently and it made me laugh a bit. Still enjoy the fight at the end though. Definitely give the animes a shot. The newer one is awesome.

I love both. The new one just has cleaner animation imo since it's newer and all.
I am not a big fan of this current look. (I know it is just a prototype) But I do not care for the elbow joints (balls really?) and the hip (upper crotch to waist) looks elongated. My biggest gripe is that it looks too similar to the figure I already own. As much as I love Guyver figures, I think I will pass this up, unless they include some great accessories such as: Mega Smasher effect, gravity blast etc...(similar to what S.H. MonsterArts is doing with Godzilla) What I would truly love is for Max Factory/Figma to release this line in 1/6 scale (12") not to mention with the accessories above
However I am glad they are keeping this line of figures alive. Not to mention some people are going to love to snag these especially if they missed out on the last set!
A site called Japan-legend has all the manga up for viewing.
