    How about Emce and Battle Japan?

    I don't know about the rest of you guys but I was watching Robot chicken and Saw the "enter the Fat One " bit and thought "Tranzor Z YES". we need an EMCE TranzorZ and shogun warriors (Not to mention KA-SHOCK - "Ultraman ULTRAman ULTRAMAN!")

    any one else interested

    I think what you saw was a Henshin Cyborg Mazinger-Z. Mech-a.com

    Although I agree, a legitimate 8" Ultraman Mego-style figure would be nice, (Working on a custom one right now, actually.) as well as a few other core 70s anime & tokusatsu characters like the Gatchaman team & villains, Spectreman, Inframan (although he's Chinese), Speed Racer.

      >a legitimate 8" Ultraman Mego-style figure would be nice,

      Hmmmm.... I've been wanting an 8" UltraSeven. Since I've finally seen the show, and noticed how much time he spent at human size....

      >Gatchaman team & villains, Spectreman, Inframan (although he's Chinese), Speed Racer.

      Y'know.... I have a Galactor/Spectra team in the works right now. (I haven't figured out how to do the costumes: do I want a printed jumpsuit sorta thing, or do I want to make the shoulder and chestplates raised like a flakvest....) I also have a Spectreman and Inframan in the planning stages. And no plans for a Speed Racer, but I have drawn up plans for a Mach 5. (Kromedome needs a new ride.)

      ... but if some company wanted to produce these figures, it'd save me a LOT of work.

        I'd love to see some of these as well, but I don't know how easy it would be to get the necessary licensing (some Japanese companies are a bit of a PITA to deal with and/or ask for unrealistic fees)

          I'd go nuts for an 8" SpectreMan, he has a cult following thanks to his syndicated run in North America and we're all Mego aged too, hmmmmmm.

            Jason and I love this stuff.... It's definitely something we would like to do... Given the licensing hurdles, we may end up shooting for more generic/original Henshin style figures (Denys Fisher style) at first... Though Inframan is near and dear to my heart

                          I would LOVE to see Battle of the Planets figures and would buy them in a heartbeat, if done well, like the Popy ones.

                            Would anyone else buy any and all Kinnikuman Mego figures?

                            I wholeheartedly would!
