Favorite 1/18 Toys That AREN'T Joes

Zefram · 07-02-2008, 11:16 PM

They're out there. The Microman line might just be it, but I also have my eye on a 1/18 scale Votoms (increadibly awesome classic anime) Armored Trooper with figure. The thing would cost me over $100, but it would own my entire toy collection, and has such a realistic military look to it that it wouldn't even stick-out next to my Joes.

I want like a million zllion votoms mechs for mah Joes. But yeah, their over 100 bux :(

The Elite Force and Bravo Team Forces of Valor figures are alright - the vehicles are outstandling. I have a whole moss of them. They're becoming more scarce nowadays.

It would have to be the BBI elite force series vehicles. They are the most realistic vehicles I have ever seen.

Figures, Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Then Superhero Showdown fig's(until Hasbro releases theirs and maybe the upcoming DC fig's). I have some BBI, 21C, and Forces of Valor, Microman Batman Begins and the comic version, to go with the Target Tumbler. Vehicle wise, BBi Apache, some Corps, Chap Mei, SW, IJ.

I really liked some of the showdown marvel figures like Venom and Thor. I got all of them but some are kinda wack.

4" Marvel Legends Showdown I love but hate the quality. I buy the superhero micromen and movie characters. Also buy a few starwars that appeal to me, mostly dark jedi's and troopers. I'll plan to check out the new 4" posable DC figs coming out soon. But I don't think they will have enough articulation to satisfy by taste.

I'd have to say Star wars were my favorite 1/18 scale toys(1995-2001)

FOV and BBi line.

both have good armor and vehicles. makes the current wave of 25th Joe vehicles sub-standard.

Was Star Wars, but if I see another Han Solo, or fan fave peg warmers I'm gonna puke. The Expanded Universe stuff and Force Unleashed, figs are where it's at now with that line. The Starwars Unleashed Statues will always be cool. But if I buy anything SW nowadays it's a resin, or cold cast porcelain statue or bust.
