>>23947962>>Action Toys Duke Fire in development, J-Decker finally released (delayed FIVE FUCKING TIMES, worse than Evolution Toy Fighbird, first in July 2025, then October, November, February 2026, and finally June)It's already released and from what reviewers said, it's a pretty good figure. Can't wait for my copy to arrive.
>>23954074I bought it too recently and apparently I'll get it on Monday. I'm still kind of wary of it because there was so many delays. If you've had experience with CM's and King Arts in the past you too would be kind of wary of small time/new companies.
>>23954067I still don't get why there are two of them. There's a one with a different frame or something?

Scale comparison.
>>23954356King Arts stuff can an indeed be stood but is brittle and tolerances are not followed very well so the joints fall out from the limbs and fingers fall off. Not as bad as CM's but lawdy.>>23954373That might be accurate given that GGG is pretty short. Not as short as Dancouga but p.small. Which one did you get? The regular or the action frame?
The Exkaisers.
>>23954427The SoC includes the action frame as a partsforming optional part
>>23954447Oh good. Does it also get a stand for storage?
J-Decker arrived... also the IR-01G third party Star Saber. pic related, line up from THE GATTAI Da Garn through to the CM's J-DeckerPictures don't accurately give you an impression of how much heft the J-Roader has from the diecast. The gloss of the plastic is really good looking.

>>23974955It take it SMP is just the SOC one but smaller and plastic. Same dimensions, joints, and everything.
>>23976446Which explains the brief brush-up that happened last year. Takara Tomy revealed the Toyrise version, so Tamashii Nations went back to the drawing board and redid the whole thing from scratch.
Based on the PR they put out for Ex Kaiser they must have spent a lot of time or money doing the changes, so are desperate to sell the thing. I've never seen that much social media around any SOC before.
>>23976859Oh also. We know Action Toys reworked J Decker for years so maybe they should have made that point about that on social media too.

Senpuuji Maito's birthday.https://www.sunrise-world.net/titles/birthday_08.php#birthday0824
is the eldoran license any cheaper than brave?
I saw a clip on twitter, but when the timeline updated it disappeared and now I can't find it again. I thought it showed a blue police robot with a brave-like design (Deckard?) interacting with several other (4?) rude police robots that looked mostly the same among them, blue and white with cloth over their joints like Labors. I looked into J-Decker and apparently there were never multiple identical police robots there, so it must have been some other show. They definitely had brave-like faces at least and the animation looked late 80s or 90s style.
>>23993575There are generic police robots that are piloted in the show but they are gray. The other thing you see that our police robots that look like deckard are the enemy copycat units used in the later half of the series. I assume it's just a comedy piece with deckard talking to the patlabor guys.

>>23993289Probably more expensive. Remember, only Takara Tomy, Good Smile and Bandai ever made toys of them (the last one were High Grades, which would be thrown into the Shadow Realm in light of the Go-Saurer MODEROIDs), and as another anon said, ArtStorm just got the license to produce a full transforming version similar to the old Tomy toy. Yes, it is more expensive than Brave. But I'm still anxious about how we still don't have a physical Sworgrader toy, even the AMAKUNI KIZIN that was announced 2 years ago is just nothing but stuck in development hell.
I added the DVD subs to the Da-Garn Blu-Ray rip and uploaded it to Aniarena.If you're interested plz seed and consider uploading it to Nyaa so it gets more exposure.Also plz SEED.https://www.anirena.com/?q=user%3A%22SteelBeowulf%22

>>23998450So everyone is brave police but decakard is hetero. Hmmmmm. All 4 build team have gfs, Duke does too. Shadowmaru is celibate because he's a ninja. I don't know what to think of this.
>>23998452Deckard riding behind Gunmax and shattering Gunmax's doubts by telling him that he'll never leave him was 100% of the fuel all the yaoi girls - JP, KR and EN alike - needed to ship them togather

>>23998455>>23998452Deckard is the only one allowed to pull Gunmax's trigger (after he taught him how to not pour fuel directly into his crotch).

>>24004084I mean, the Betterman cast are prominently featured in Hakaioh.
>>24004090That's because that is "king of ruin". Which is betterman versus GGG, der.

Rank the Brave openings. For me Gaogaigar's OP is the undisputed number 1 but I'm not sure about the rest.
>>24005250I love the old-school cop show freezeframes in the J-Decker OP, and BURNING FIGHBIRD! FIGHBIRD! FIGHBIRD! goes pretty hard but nothing gives me feels like the Da-garn OP's song/visuals combo.Honorable mention that hearing "Bouken ga hajimaru, dokidoki ga hajimaruuuuuuuuuu" at the start of Goldran's OP makes my heart happy every time

https://twitter.com/tspark_official/status/2102669344295837792Toyrise GaoGaiGar releasing this weekend.
>>24027757I have noticed takara and akumini are both kind of dragging their feet on the other braves. They just wanted to make genesic and call it a day. Takara has more done but did they even get to Might Gaine yet?
>>23958119>Any of you guys have any luck keeping it from flopping on the stand?Not sure what you mean. There are a lot of bits on the stand that have to be locked for it to stay in place. Hope you figured it out.>>23954467>Pictures don't accurately give you an impression of how much heft the J-Roader has from the diecast. The gloss of the plastic is really good looking.Yeah. He was my first purchase from Art Storm, and apart from the solid year of delays, I'm pleasantly pleased. Top notch quality all around.
>>24028493Nice looking gold bits.
>>24028496yeah, I'm a big fan of gold vac metal
>>24028025So far, besides OG GaoGaiGar, Takara has done Toyrise Genesic, GaoFighGar, and the Exkaiser's forms, with the latter having a black recolor. Future Toyrise Braves are Choryujin and Fire Dagwon. Amakuni has only done King J-Der and Great Might for non-Genesic Braves.
>>24028505Yeah again, Sentinel/Akumini is dragging their feet. I don't know if it's because the economy or they didn't get good returns on what they did?One or two years ago they had a lot of advertising where they showed gold cutouts of the brave units they wanted to make or planned to make. They barely scratch the surface. Toyrise is at least making some headway. I just don't like everyone focused so hard on GGG then meh.We need a new ShadowmaruWe need a new GoldranWe need Swordgaizer We need Baan Gaan
>>24028493>>24028502I've had good luck in finding out what the problem was. The strut that supports the pelvis is connected to the actual stand by a cylindrical male and female plug. I'm not sure if it was everybody's or just mine but it was on the loose side. I applied some kiki and it worked like a charm. I've used a lot of this stuff and fixing poor tolerance figures and old figures. It especially works wonders on stands for gokins.https://a.co/d/06jLYCXa
>>24028883Oh second thing is the way the strut is inserted into the pelvis is very short pegs. He will fall out if they're not applied correctly, but if you have the cylindrical plugs nice and tight it can just balance on there. Similarly is the bespoke stand for Gattai Bravern. Those shorts pegs suck.
The Toyrise Kings of Braves.
>>24028897Bum bum one two three Bum bum gao gai three
>>24028834AMAKUNI might be doing a Sworgrader, though I have a feeling it could be a SUPER KIZIN, not just a plain KIZIN, since it would show off the transformation in person rather than a manga sketch.

>>24033780Ooh, Brickroid Seiji!
>>24033828I think he's the first Brave protagonist to get this treatment by GSC.
I loved the Brave series until all these new toys and revival started, now I'm starting to dislike it. Not outright hate, but this all feels like such a money grab that it cheapens the original experience for me. They've overhyped GaoGaiGar so much I can't watch it any more.(If I see one more version of Genesic GaoGaiGar I'll puke.) Still have a lot of the original toys that I adore, the Goldran ones being my favorites. Can you shove any more shooting missiles into a single toy?
>>24034277>(If I see one more version of Genesic GaoGaiGar I'll puke.)Surely they can't further shill the thing any time soon, right?
>>24034277The fact that now there's a head, and stupid little plastic cards to display. Ugh it's just soany companies milking the same show. GaoGaiGar is the Despicable Me of mecha.
>>24034334Brace yourself for more GaoGaiGar milking for its 30th anniversary next year.
>>24034421I think I too will throw up.
Will you guys look forward to the future GaoGaiGar focus in the Sworgrader manga?
>>24034486No. Too much GGG
https://hobbyjapan.co.jp/braveuniverse/novel_bg_ep14.htmlChapter 14.
Can anyone give me a rundown on the T-Spark toys? Every video I've seen makes them look pretty fun and hardy. I'm seriously considering the GGG/GFG, but I wanna know what I'm in for on a brand I've never tried before.
>>24034600They are like modern mainline Transformers, but with extra licensing-tax. You could try some cheaper TFs if you're not ready to commit. Most of their accessories will be cross-compatible too, all 5mm joints.
>>24034600I’d say the 1st two entries for brave with Exkaiser and Dragon Kaiser are great figures and abnormally large for the price. Only problem is Exkaiser not having the trailer hitch. The issue after these two is the size reduction with Gao Gai Gar and Fire Dagwon but retaining a similar price.Yet somehow the best bang for your buck with modern brave releases because the SOC is too fragile and complicated and the model kits are finnicky.
>>24034620>the model kits are finnicky.Especially the RG GaoGaiGar's hands.
>>24034486>>24034520Even took him off my keys. Tis sad day.

Hiyama posting about Naoki Bando's passing.https://twitter.com/NOBUKIHIYAMAY08/status/2106313955383914795"The news of Shoki Bando's passing...I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Bando on Hiyama's first regular series "Earth SOS: Go Go Klorin." For that production, we went out drinking almost every week, and he took great care of me in many ways. My deepest condolences."

>>24039675Thanks for sharing. Interesting he used his regular deep voice there.
