We continue our week of Toyfinity photo shoots with the second part of our Maxx Zero photo shoot. Today we take a look a the other two Robo Force releases; Maxx Zero Basic Edition and Maxx Zero Unpainted Edition. The Basic Edition is the pure homage to the original Maxx Steele Robo Force figure. the Unpainted Edition was a way for Toyfinity to offer fans a way to customize their Robo Force kit from top to bottom.
After the jump, check out my thoughts on these two as well as the full gallery.
Toyfinity Toys – Maxx Zero Basic Edition and Maxx Zero Unpainted Edition
Pros
- Basic Edition is a great nostalgia piece
- Got that “Commadore 64” gray just right
- Tight pegs all around
- Unpainted Edition looks really good in all white
Cons
- Pegs and holes need to be heated before swapping parts
Overall
Like the Ultimate Edition Maxx Zero, Toyfinity really went for it with the Basic Edition. While the Ultimate version went for a more reimagined look, the Basic version is meant to be the all new version of the original Maxx. The colors are pretty much spot on. The odd “Commadore 64” style gray is not an easy color to reproduce, so it was cool to see it turn out so well. This version does not feature the painted detail lines seen in the Ultimate version, which, when side-by-side, give it a great new vs old look.
With the Unpainted Edition, they put out a figure that is in all pure white. This was to give their fans a chance to create a completely custom Robo Force design from top to bottom. I left min all white for two reasons. The first being I think the all white looks unique and makes for a great “prototype” or unforged edition. The second reason is I’m not a customizer and didn’t want to wreck the figure.
The joints on both are nice and tight. They hold their poses well. As in the Ultimate version, be sure to use a hair dryer to heat up those pegs and peg holes. Once swapped a few times, they become much easy to change out.
These two , along with Ultimate Maxx, give us the best wave so far. I hope to see more Basic and Ultimate Editions in the future, as I think fans are really digging these versions.
See a few highlights below, with the full gallery 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.
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
Nice work!

I am down with that. Love the retro feel to it.

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.
