About this deal

This is also on top of the 1/6th scale "Anniversary" figure(s) they have been showing off for a few years now. The figure also comes with High Frequency Wave-Vibration Swords, interchangeable chest parts for creating the Mega Smasher pose, interchangeable underarm parts and a dedicated stand base. A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.

The only reason I can see why the 2.0 figma Guyver 1 is coming, is for the 40th anniversary in 2025... Which if my prediction is correct, will come out mid/late 2024 just in time for the anniversary. It's also Figma #600, so it's also a milestone for Max Factory as well. In addition to an assortment of hand parts, the High Frequency Wave-Vibration Sword, Unit G and a Sho Fukamachi face part based on the cover of the 5th volume of the manga are included. Here is a basic list of the officially released Guyver action figures, or figures that are supposed to be coming out, not including live action movie stuff, since they are clearly differently designed. I might miss something, but this is most of it. I am currently waiting on getting some new glass shelves cut, as my current shelves are full... But have a ton of space in between that I can move them around to fit more... But I currently have over 6 of the glass units full, plus some extra shelves on my computer desk and on my walls... things that rage from a TON of Iron Man figures ( have always been a huge fan, even before the MCU), other Marvel Legends, lots of Gunpla, various mecha shows like Tekkaman Blade, Macross, Gaogaigar, Gurren lagann, Getter Robo, Code Geass, Evangelion, Pacific Rim, Transformers... a bunch of Kamen Rider/Sentai figures... Some video game figures from Halo, Devil May Cry, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, KOTOR, Megaman X, Zone of the Enders...You might think the simpsons aint good no more but obviously People still like it and Matt Groening's wallet will just keep getting fatter. There have been various 3rd party/bootleg figures out there as well as people 3-d printing their own stuff now too.

The figure's paintwork design, planned by Max Factory president and popular modeler Max Watanabe, was created through extensive trial and error, arriving at a final design that perfectly embodies the spirit of the original work. Guyver 1, Guyver 2, Guyver 3, Aptom ver 4, Murakami, Guyver Gigantic, Gigantic Dark, Zx'tole, Neo Zx'tole, Guyot, Purg'stall, ImakarumI'd imagine archenfel is fully poseable like all the other Guyver models that max factory have done. Max Factory President & Paintwork SupervisorMax Watanabe The 1/6 scale articulated Guyver I is a must-have for passionate Guyver fans, and it is a product that I, not as Max Factory's president, but as a modeler and dedicated Guyver fan, desired immensely. As a result, I made all kinds of requests as we aimed for the highest quality and features, then before I knew it, five years had passed by. I am truly sorry that due to that, the product has become fairly expensive. However, I think it is a perfect item for those who truly want it. Bio Fighter Collection: (Fully posable figures with changeable parts. Precursors to the creation of the entire Figma toy line) I've been looking for an exhaustive list of all Guyver figures available but been unable to find one, so I started cobbling one together from what I could think of and find myself. Below is that list. Can anyone think of anything I am missing, or know of existing lists they can point me at? Note that the below does not include any model kits, but if anyone has a list of those (or any other relevant lists of Guyver merch in general) then I'd be glad to see that as well!

I am incredibly happy to be able to release this 1/6 scale fully articulated Guyver I, a figure the likes of which likely won't be seen again. Thank you to everyone involved in its creation. The chest plate can be opened and closed, and a light-emitting feature is included in the eyes, forehead Guyver Unit and chest lens. This ultimate rendition of Guyver I was created with sculpting, paintwork and articulation all under the review and approval of original creator Yoshiki Takaya. There was also 2 sets of smaller "trading figures" released during the 2005 Tv shows airing alongside the BFC figures. So, the Archanphel and Exceed figures you've seen pictures of, are from the original Bio Fighter Collection from around 2005-2010. They were proto-types shown of figures to come. It is unknown if the non posable Archanphel was going to be a separate release under the non posable Bio Fighter Wars line, or just a painted proto-type for the BFC figure that is shown unpainted. Unfortunately the line stopped at Imakarumand again I mentioned Archanfels articulation as the only pics ive seen up untill now appear no to be poseable and the zoanoids released by max factory weren't fully poseable. Then there was Sanken, who managed to release 1/6th scale figures of the 2 Gigantic's, and teased 1/6th scale Guyver 1 and Murakami releases... but shut down soon after. From the manga series "Bio Booster Armor Guyver" comes a new figma of Guyver I for figma's 15th anniversary, entirely reviewed and approved by Yoshiki Takaya himself. Sculpting SupervisorYoshihito Kobayashi With meticulous guidance from Yoshiki Takaya, I fully committed to creating each detail, utilizing sculpting tools from digital to analog methods. This allowed us to capture Guyver I in three-dimensional form just as the creator envisioned, an unprecedented feat.
