SDCC07: Organic HobbySubmitted by Sanjeev on 19 August, 2007 - 21:56.
...Okay, I'm not gonna lie to you: it's mostly Revoltechs! ;P Seriously, though, Organic Hobby is primarily known around these parts as purveyors of Revoltechs and girlie figures. Of course, they didn't disappoint on the Revoltech front at Comicon, but I was pleased to get a chance to see in person many of the other properties and toy lines they carry. Honestly, though, in terms of Revoltech, if you really follow the line, you're already well ahead of what was on display at Comicon. Oh, it was all neat stuff, for sure...but if you've been keeping up, you'll already be familiar with the upcoming figures below. Well, let's get started anyway with what we're all waiting for...Revoltechs: Of course, there were plenty more on display, including the popular Dix-Neuf, Dangaioh, and the silver EVA Unit 4...though when I asked, he refused to write any sentai toy reviews! ;) Check out the Organic Hobby gallery for plenty more Revoltech images. One very special thing Stephane was nice enough to show me was the box for the upcoming Valkyrie Revoltech! Very nice indeed...no pics, though! Basically, they're really going for brand recognition here. I like it. Even though the license properties vary wildly from Getter Robo to Transformers to Evangelion to Macross, the boxes all have the same conservative-sized window boxes that can be pegged from across a toy store as being a Revoltech figure. Smart. Some additional honorable mentions from Organic include statues of characters from the new anime, "Prologue of Blame" by Beagle, most excellent Sengoku-jidai daimyo statues (also from Beagle), and a rocking boxed set of Tachikoma. Also on display were unpainted prototype figures from "Afro Samurai" that looked simply amazing...though we weren't allowed to shoot them. See?? More than just Revoltechs! Next up, we have their "Real Artwork Series" 3D polyresin poster of Cobra, the Space Pirate and of Fist of the Northstar: Lastly, more pics of T.O.P. Collection's pre-painted statues of Getter 1 and Mazinger Z (though Stephane wasn't able to confirm my theory that they're based on Romu's resin garage kits from about 10 years ago): More:
