*wants the maden zenki stuff*
Ryugunoh looks awesome! and I was right about UNI spinoff being Takara's answer to Pinky St.
What's all these zip files in that first link?
In the Takara link, I was looking at the pics of Asuka...is her hair articulated?

Aoi
yes, her hair is articulated
the zip files contain pictures from several toyshows in Japan, the one with Asuka is from the Winter Wonder Festival, for the new one you have to click WCC22.zip (if it doesnt show on the first page, then go to the next page, not so difficult to find)

check www.fantofan.jp preorder pages for pics for all 4 Superman figures
if thier anything like the batman micromen they will be easy find (fingers crossed)
Just saw the new Superman figures. Not feeling the skinny one. The eyes on both him and Supergirl look too weird to me.
The bulkier chest Superman looks cool...and I'm really digging the Cyborg Superman. Wonder if Takara'd give him any backstory?

I really don't like that movie superman. 
i like the look of supergirl and it looks like the blue is metalic
but i agree on superman is a little odd i think he needs a better jaw line

That robotic superman looks like it could be the villian Cyborg-Superman, The Man of Tomarrow

*Thread Resurrection*
OK, I know the last couple of months there hasn't really been anything on Microman. But, I found this on HLJ, and I am more than curious. Does anyone have any information on this?

could it be the sentai girls listed here: http://www.takarahobby.com/kaihatsu/0705microman/002.html ?
4 girls names 4 of the 5 are girls so it fits
ps are they based on whats going to replace madan zenki ryukendo? since the face masks are a similar concept and tomytakara made micromen for that show aswell

They could be. I still haven't finished off Ryukendo yet...but the costumes are pretty similar looking...if a bit more oldschool looking.

HLJ listed 3 new Evangelion entries:
Rei schooluniform http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT76813
Asuka schooluniform http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT76814
Rei & Asuka plugsuit set http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT77733
I presume that the 2 first are new molds and the set might be a recolor of last year's plugsuit versions
there are also 3 new Kinnukuman entries:
Great Kinnukuman http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT77206
Pentagon http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT77207
Menggu Man http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT77208

hmmm i dunno i realy like thier original style micromen to the stuff based off other things but saying that they look ok but im going to skip
http://www.microforever.com/preview2000.htm
note: they translated Wecker Signa to 'Vector Sigma' which isnt the correct name
I hope the hiatus on Microman is over, like with Transformers, so that after this series we can get more Material Force (I need flesh colored V2 female bodies for customs) and off course more Micro- and Acro series

Tomyformers and Chewy Microman in the future?

Not a really exciting news but at least Takara-Tomy is determine to keep Microman line going for at least until the end of this year. I am not sure I am entirely please with the direction that Tomy is taking Microman line. Yukiko told me that there were several rumors about the tension between the two toy designing cultures (Tomy and Takara) and that lead to many of the problem with the projects. Tomy was hoping Takara would open up Transformers brand to Tomy division and Takara was hoping for Star Wars licensed so they can do Microman Version of Star Wars characters but they were un-able to resolve the turf wars and the end result is pretty much a very boring year for Microman line.
Tomyformers and Chewy Microman in the future?
Kinda disappointing news. I'm not really into the Kinnikuman series but the blue guy from Wrecker Signa Project is kinda interesting. Not to interested in the girls in that series though. I was really hoping they would release new Microforce figures. Oh well at least I can catch up on the ones that I am missing in my collection.
you know if the 2 sides got together im thinking some real magic could happen
interesting but the black guy looks a bit bland

Rei will have a bandage version, nice
and waaaay more afordable than the Medicom toys

yeah i want to watch that new live action show
fresh from the Tokyo Toy Show:
if I'm not wrong, that previously unseen character (in red) will be a DVD exclusive (thus very expensive)
and strange that they are using the old made body again, and not the V2
and still no Material Force figures

the red guy is a remold of the old bio machine toy (mine all had bad qualty issues ) infact i think they have anly changed the chest and head
the black ranger = teh win but i know i will end up getting all 4 girls

wow they are sure using alot of over again. They have Microman Xeku's Machinemirror in that red dvd exclusive, the black guy with the cape looks like a black materialforce figure with Acro Hidou's armor and accessories with a new cape and head sculpt. Maybe it hasn't been painted yet. All in all, I was hoping Takaratomy would be producing new Microforce figs for 2007.
well i think it was posted that the 2 sides of takara and tomy are having teething problems when it comes to thier design teams getting along

new pictures!
The Wecker girls come with a second head (not their real life head though)
And Bandage Rei is an exclusive, hopefully not too had to come by...
also interesting is the Wingman (veeeery long time since I watched that) and Lupin sollicitions

They uploaded a picture of the upcoming solicitations
first 2 are from Lupin, next 2 Wecker (seen those before)
row underneath: 2 girls from Wecker (repaints?) and the other are all from the 80ties series Wingman
so the rest of the year seems to be packed with releases, albeit there are no regular Microman or Acroyear series

the ones in pic 12 are 2 of the 4 girls i think its the orange and sky blue
yes they are, but the first sets will be released in September, and these are set for December ('12') so I supose those are repaints, since the price is too low to be the DVD versions
Lupin Microman:
ive only seen a few lupin things and it didnt do much for me but those toys look cool
http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1
new Microman girls to see:
2 Wecker girls from the DVD pack and 2 other in regular clothing, these last 2 look pretty for toys bases on real humans

am I the only Microman fan left on earth?? lol
anyway, new updates here: http://www.microforever.com/preview2000.htm and here: www.takarahobby.com
bad news: one of the Wecker girls is a mail-away... but good to see TakaraTomy paid attention to each girl's approximative height
thanks to the chromed Lupin figures, the Micromanspirit is kept alive (also with the 2nd head of the Wecker costumed figures), somehow, I wonder if we'll get to see some real Microman and Acroyear figures someday

no your not but since they merged theirs been little past tie-in figures so its not like theirs anything new
its cool how theirs also doing human figures for the sigma show girls (all jail bait it seems) ive still haven't seen any of it

I don't think they are jail bait, they al look around their 18-20, but may be playing 15-16 year olds (like Claire in Heroes)
still, everything about 16 isnt jail bait anymore (at least not in my country)
plus the series doesnt seem to be sexually tinted, just a female sentai/tokusatsu thingy
anyway, back on topic: I got the Wonderfest Exclusive Rei last week
, nice figure, with a bed as a box, but no accesoiries at all (no extra hands, no stand, no nothing)
