Here's a new pic of the prototype. It's at a better angle.

Why another thread for this?

Now this is definitely coming out right? Because you've shown us quite a lot of YMS-F prototypes for figures that have been "coming soon" for years.

Well to be fair that's not Tony's fault, he doesn't own Y-MSF (so far as I know)... They apparently like to sculpt stuff up and never release it. :? My guess is they're not making as much money as they hoped, they probably launched the company with grand intentions and had a huge wave of sculpting and prototyping, then the business never really took off and it wasn't financially prudent to release large numbers of the figures. I know there were several of the prototypes I saw that I would love to have figures of though.

This fig is Raymundo. Legion was just noting that Tony had shown us several Y-MSF prototypes in the past that never made it to production (at least not yet). But then, since Tony's store is TEMPTING Toys I guess it's only appropriate that he dangle a few vinyl carrots in front of us from time to time. :wink:

New photos, thus new thread. This proto is Raymundo and I'm not in direct contact with them. I get pictures via Japan and do not give Raymundo any input since I do not buy directly from them. I was just curious if anyone would have a change of heart if they saw better pics. If anyone wants to see more photos and different angles let me know. I'll add them to this thread.

Wish I had money. I'd really love to have that MechaniKong.

Has a actual date been given for the release of this, or is still just "sometime 1st qtr"? Thanks!

I do like the look of this figure, but I still love the Bandai. Great effort and decision to make a Mechani-Kong with the belt on Raymundo's part.

Might pick this up once I have the Bandai.

Anyone know what the status of this is? BBTS had it listed as first quarter 2009, and seeing how we're at the end of that.....

Did Raymyundo ever release any of their Mechani Gorillas? I've been keeping tabs on them every so often when I visit BBTS and still nothing.
