Toys: Revoltech Jehuty Announced

Posted on : 13-02-2011 | By : | In : Toys/Kits

As posted via Hideo Kojima’s Twitter feed last month at the Yoji Shinkawa Live Art Show, it seems that in addition to the just announced RIOBOT figures, that there will also be a Revoltech version of Jehuty released later this year (shown above). The Revoltech line is known for its dynamic poses, as enabled by a very sturdy joint system, as well as their compact size. This is an interesting situation though, as two separate toy lines converging on a previously dormant series is a bit more than just simple coincidence. It’s no big secret that another Zone of Enders has been in an extended form of pre-production for some time now, do these toys herald something more tangible in the near future? In any case, the Revoltech figure will be available this spring (according to Kojima) or “Q4” according to everyone else. There are even a few places taking pre-orders.

Update: The official Konami site has confirmed the release date for the 15th April.

Not a big fan of figures but I am looking forward to a new ZOE. Actually, I thought ZOE 2 was pretty good until I read the review on this site, lol, it was harsh. But I didn’t know that ZOE had Virtual On as an inspiration.

Hmm it indeed does seems strange we are getting so much ZOE stuff out of the blue, maybe we will get a shock at e3/tgs this year? who knows, but I have to get atleast one of these figures, depends on the reviews on which are better.


Yes. YES.
Loved ZOE 2, and now they’re finally givin us Jehuty 😀

Looks pretty good. One thing Revoltech does quite well is mechs, and since I already have their King Gainer and AV-98 Ingram….I might be putting this on my list.

Loved the second ZOE game myself–and if this is the lead-up to a new game, so much the better.

Agreed! ZOE2 was great, I’ll be picking one of these up for sure. Love the inclusion of the little HUD thing 😀

It’s awesome becuase the HUD thingy is what you’ll use for the Vic Viper’s Options that come with it!

I own multiple Revoltechs and while they do have nice gimmicks (like the hud ring on Jehuty) they don’t seem to be as flexible as advertised.

Agreed–but you can get some cool poses with a bit of patience. I’ve read enough horror stories about people breaking their Revoltechs (and Figma figures, for that matter) due to impatience and being rough with ’em.

Still…if they do put out the Vic Viper, will it be transformable? It can be done; they did it for the Macross Valkyries, so it could be applied to the VV…

Maybe maybe not.I’m going to wait and see what Riobot does.
