GNU-DOU

For larger than life action that fits in the palm of your hand, Yamato presents the GN-U DOU. With the GNU-DOU, Japan's Super Robots spring to life as never before through a new innovative internal frame design for maximum movement and posing, while outer coverings express the unique look and feel of each character. A three size system further conveys a sense of scale as well as the enlarged, powered up versions of individual characters as they are seen in the original anime series for an unprecedented line-up with maybe a few surprises. The GN-U DOU, a new revolution in action figures.


Review: GNU-DOU Galactic Whirlwind Sasuraiger

Galactic Whirlwind Sasuraiger is such an under-appreciated mecha design from the 80's.

Review: GNU-DOU Galactic Gale Baxingar

How crazy is it that we are getting toys of all these unloved 80s robots? Baxingar is actually pretty cool!


Review: GNU-DOU Braiger

This is the first time a character has appeared in TWO GNU lines, but hopefully not the last.


Review: GNU-DOU Goshogun

I've always been a big fan of the Goshogun design, from the classic gokins to the recent CM's Brave Gokin. There's just something really cool and classic about the look of this bot.


Review: GNU-DOU VF-11B Valkyrie

In a way the VF-11B is the little valk that could.. it's the underdog, and I always have a soft spot for the underdog. Includes video overview of all the Macross Plus GNU-DOU


Review: GNU-DOU YF-21 Valkyrie

The YF-21 looks nothing like any valkyrie that has come before it. It has a definite Zentradi influence to it, looking more like a Q-Rau than a Valkyrie. I'm sure this is no coincidence - it's pilot is half Zentradi.


Review: GNU-DOU YF-19 Valkyrie

The big question is - are they worth it? The GNU-DOU average about 1,000 yen (about $10) more than a Revoltech. Honestly - I think they are. They are made out of a better material, are sturdier, and are a little larger. For a non-transforming toy, the engineering is pretty complex, and the toy for the most part feels very sturdy.

For the most part.
