Marvel Teams Up with Bandai for New Tech-On Avengers Comic and S.H. Figuarts

Uh... hell yes? Wow.

This came out of nowhere - the guys behind S.H.Figuarts get to design characters for Marvel now? Jesus how far this line has come.

I'm excited to see the figures, that Iron Man design looks pretty badass.

"Sleek high-tech power suits bristling with energy and amped-up attack power face off against Super Villains enhanced to match."

That sounds like Power Rangers. Meh.

First of all, Sentinel's Fighting Armor series is already doing this.

Secondly, "TECH-ON AVENGERS" is a really dumb name for a toy line.

Lastly, I'll reserve further judgement until I see the final products.

I don’t think that's the case, Sentinel is redesigning Iron Man armors to fit certain heroes, this sounds more like Injustice 2 for Marvel to me.

With them specifically being Tokusatsu inspired armors, I'd expect they'd be in line with Kamen Rider and Power Rangers, and very different than the Fighting Armor line.

I like the idea, but just from those comic pages it looks like it'll be the standard boring endlessly done characters like Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Cap, and of course Captain Carol shoved in there like anyone actually cares about the character.

Super Sentai teams usually have what - 5 members? So that's probably all five we'll get unless they toss in Black Widow or Spider-Man.

A look at the Cap design.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmgross.

So the designs look to be that new Ultraman manga style instead of classic Rider style.

Eh, not that impressed with that as that Gridman look is so generic these days. Just looks like another Iron Man armor.

I'm digging the look of the helmet, I'll be interested to see what they do with Hulk, Thor and Black Panther.

So these are the designs I presume. The figures will be revealed next Wednesday.

Out of these I think Spider-Man looks the best. The helmet really does scream "Tokusatsu" to me and its nice how they replicated his web-pattern with armor platting. The weird backpack is kind of cool too.

The rest - huh. Iron Man is Iron Man, can’t go wrong with him, but the design doesn’t wow me. Black Panther is neat; the yellow light underneath the black armor is cool. Wolverine is just weird, can’t say I like Captain America either and Captain Marvel is just meh.

Seems like the ReEdit line and the Fighting Armor line from Sentinel. Is it based off of the same source material?

It is its own source material, Eiichi Shimizu created these designs for Bandai and Marvel is making a comic with them.

Thanks looking forward to these. Where can I buy the comic?

I would assume everywhere where you can buy comics, physically or digitally. The first issue will be out August 11th.

I'm an absolute sucker for Tokusatsu artistic choices, so I'm all in for a set of these. I'll put them right next to my set of Sentinel Fighting Armor.

I'll admit though: the Sentinel looks better to me even with the fact that all of the figures are built around the same core body.

I assume these will be launching all through 2022, if the first one is coming in December??

All for reimagination keeps things a bit fresh. This doesn't wow me though especially since Setintels came out with similar looking figures years ago and I have a few pieces of theirs since I liked the design and overall build/gimmicks/features etc. SHF's Star Wars movie realization is far more intriguing in my opinion.

But my thoughts/gripes is that this is confirming what I feared and do not like seeing with what directions Bandai are taking/going last 2 years. They're not stepping up their game and seems they're cost cutting and picking the easy profit making routes. I know the Iron Man Hall of Armor route was quite the cash cow for them. Dont get me wrong, these look well executed and I'm sure there are collectors out there that love to add more "armor" pieces for their collection.

R-Type Iron Man??

Next release will be Captain America, May 2022 release, Black Panther will follow.

Cap has a super mode in which he combines with his shield, Black Panther goes "beast mode".
