GUYVER by Max Toy Co
Witness the GUYVER vinyl toy from @maxtoyco, with this "Guyver 01" in green marbling and glitter debuted at Wonder Festival (over the past Sunday - check out score snaps from a lucky buyer, posted in tweet below). Looking HELLA AWESOME, is what it is!
No news if this'll be made available internationally or in the U.S., so you might want to stay connected to @maxtoyco for availability updates...! Imagine if there'll be different colorways to come too...?! OF COURSE it has to have its iconic BLUE armor too, no?

WHAT-IS: "Bio-Booster Armor Guyver (Viz Media) or Guyver (Chuang Yi Publishing) (Japanese: å¼·ę®č£ ē²ć¬ć¤ćć¼, Hepburn: KyÅshoku SÅkÅ GaibÄ) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yoshiki Takaya. The Guyver itself is a symbiotic techno-organic (or biomechanical) device that enhances the capabilities of its host.". (Wiki)
Beyond the manga (started serialising in 1985), Guyver has been adapted into anime OVAs, two live action movies, and a 26-episode anime series (2005 to 2006, based on the first ten volumes / Watch on YouTube), and of course not to mention TOY / ACTION FIGURE licensed releases since. And I am enjoying my Guyver-revival on YouTube, thanks to this blogpost too LOL
