| 説明 | Assemble Borg designer Yasuhiro Nightow is a Takara SF Land fan so it's worth scrutinising his designs for nods to the classic lines that inspired him. For instance, this particular look for the Nexus figure could be seen as an updated Cybercop design. The chin, massive scowl and chest piece seem to be a tip of the hat to Lucifer Bit while the ear-wings are reminiscent of Mercury Bit.The Cybercop figures never really got the recognition they deserved back then. They were superbly-articulated, the accessories were fantastic (and this being a Takara line, there naturally was a drill) and there was even a slick vehicle. If they look fairly unimpressive 27 years later, you need only look at the competition to appreciate just how outstanding they were at the time.Cybercop was later repackaged and sold in the US as ZAP Power Force but it seemed to have made no impact whatsoever. That really was typical of Takara: great action figures coupled with mediocre marketing.But it really says a lot that another generation of toy designers are taking inspiration from those old designs. The Diaclone toys may have less cachet than their Transformers counterparts but with fans like Shogo Hasui around, it's no surprise there's going to be an update of Diabattles thirty years later. |
