Toyark Gallery – Robo Force Ultimate Maxx

under Random Photo Shoot, Robot and Mecha Toy News

Over the next few days, we’ll be uploading galleries of the newest releases from Toyfinity Toys. We’re kicking it off with their most ambitious release yet, Maxx Zero Ultimate Edition. The release takes the original colors from the 1980’s Maxx Steele figure and goes one further by adding in more details. This version feature more paint apps than they’ve ever done, including detail paint lines in all of the sculpted areas.

After the jump, you can check out all of the images.

Toyfinity Toys – Maxx Zero Ultimate Edition

Pros

  • A great homage to the original paint scheme
  • Impressive amount of paint apps
  • Tight joints hold poses perfectly
  • Best Robo Force figure so far

Cons

  • Tight joint will require a bit of heat to swap

Overall
If you’ve been collecting the Toyfinity Robo Force releases, then the last round of Maxx releases were the ones you’ve been waiting for. With the Maxx Zero Basic Edition, you get the pure homage version. Then there’s the Maxx Zero Ultimate Edition, which is how Toyfinity imagines their perfect version of Maxx. It features an insane amount of paint apps that truly show off the details of the mold like none of the prior releases have. It features more colors, a total of 10, than any prior release as well as being detail lined, which is another first for the line.

The figure is also features some of the tightest joints of any of the previous kits. You may have to heat up some of the pegs and holes to swap them out. It’s just the nature of having the extra paint in areas.

If you’re only going to get one of the kits, then this is the one to track down. Only enough were produced to fulfill pre-orders, so if you didn’t get one, you’ll need to track it down on the secondary market. This truly lives up to its name.

Check out a few selected photos of Maxx and my custom builds below. the full gallery can be found after that.

    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.
