Couple years ago there was this Mecha Game Kickstarter made by Chinese Dev called Hardcore Mecha which looks promising. The game is basically Assault Suit Valken with SRW style animation which will be wonderful if it actually got released. So in this year's Tokyo Game Show, The Dev made an appearance again with the update on the game which comes along with some Toy Prototypes for the Mechas. One of them is the 1/100 Diecast Action figure equivalent with Metal Build for the series posterboy, Thunderbolt. The Action figure will be sold for 145 USD with Mid 2019 release schedule and i am getting one as an investment for the series. Thunderbolt is not the most original design but it definitely fits the bill for a Protagonist Mecha. The Action figure is made by manufacturer called ShowZ which seems to have good track record on Transformer, so i think the finished product should be all right. The Devs promised Code Hardcore will be delivered by this year but by this point i rather doubt it can happen. In any case i will get copy of the game if it got Switch Release and hope the best for the Devs because the series had potential.
I saw the pre-order and find the design cool but I lack understanding to its history. As a result, I didn’t settle for it. I do see a lot of Gundam & SRW concept in this Mecha.
ReplyDeleteI took a leap of faith for this one since it had potential. I just hope that the game will come out smoothly
