Toyfinity Planning Original Color Robo Force and More

under Robot and Mecha Toy News

Our friends at Toyfinity Toys have revealed some new upcoming ROBO FORCE figures. Fans of the classic Ideal toy line will get a chance to own the new Maxx Zero in classic Maxx Steele colors. It sounds liek this is only the first in a line of Classic Style ROBO FORCE kits. But that’s not all, there will also be an “Ultimate” edition of Maxx Zero, with the most paint apps of any ROBO FORCE kit produced by Toyfinity. Finally, they also revealed plans for a completely blank Maxx Zero specifically for customizers.

Maxx Zero Basic Edition
The ultra-Classic Steele-Forged Hero!
At $18, we have the Basic Maxx Zero. He’s a standard 41 piece kit, including all of the pieces that you get with any Robo Force kit. The intention of this figure is to provide a nicely-balanced figure that is a pure update to the vintage Maxx figure, with slightly more color than the vintage on some parts. The full schematics for this figure will be provided later today for your perusal.

Maxx Zero Unpainted Edition
Exactly what the customizers have asked for! For $12, you get a completely paint-free figure that you can customize in any way you want.

Maxx Zero Ultimate Edition
The big man himself. For $35, you get a Maxx which will have over ONE HUNDRED PAINT APPLICATIONS and is 100% detail lined!
Again, on Monday, a full set of mechanical drawings will be posted which show where all of the paint applications on this figure will be placed. Over sixty of these applications are brand-new and never before used on a Robo Force kit. This figure has more paint applications on it than some import figures which sell for double the price!

I want this to be a showpiece in your collections, as it will be in mine.
As such, THIS EXACT KIT WILL NEVER BE PRODUCED AGAIN.
There may be other Ultimate Editions in the future, but never again this exact Maxx Zero in these exact colors.

Also, for the first time, they are taking pre-orders for these figures, you can pre-order Here. As such, these editions will not have any additional production runs for sale later in the Toyfinity Store. So it’s basically order it or miss out.

    I just don't get the appeal of these things. They look straight out of the 80's. I would expect to see these in a 25 cent toy capsule vending machine.

    The idea is that they are supposed to be straight from the 80's. They are new, official releases of a classic toy line using the original molds. The Mordles themselves were so rare that collectors were paying near $100 each for them. Here's examples of the originals:







    Basically, think of them as little murder victims.

    Those clear looking ones are cool. I have the blue and yellow versions. I wish they would make the Rocks, Bugs and Things as well...

    So I got the latest drop and decided to rework the colors a little bit to get a closer look to the originals. I may have to buy another silver and black set to get exactly what I'm looking for, though.

    First is Maxx and Sentinel. If I buy another black set, I can make Maxx's arms black like the original. And since the original Sentinel had a lot of yellow, I decided to use the new yellow set for him. I think he looks awesome!

    Next is the new character Vanquard along with a more color accurate Hun-Dred inspired by Matt Doughty from Onell.

    Last is my version of Enemy. If I buy another silver set, I can make his shoulders silver to make him more accurate to the original. The character on the right is my version of Blazer. I'm still not completely happy with him yet. I think another silver set might help me realize my vision for him a little bit more.

    My version of Tiltor






    Here's my new version of Blazer, complete with water tanks on his back.






    And Enemy

    So excited for the classic Maxx figures. Even if it meant only getting a couple of figures a year, this is how they all should be!

    In the beginning, I absolutely hated the idea of Robo Force using the glyos system, but have since grown to love the new line. Classic Maxx only makes my appreciation for it even greater.

    That's a character called Fangar. I believe he is from another Glyos compatible line.
