There's not tons of it (which I like) but the line of toys looks cool, and I will eventually get at least one of them. I'm not much of a figure guy, but I don't mind a cliche' or two on my dresser.
Oh, you mean THESE? Ah-REE HEE HEE!

Here is an action figure of Linna by Atelier Sai.
This figure is pretty cool. It's mostly just for making the figure strike a pose and stand on a shelf. It seems well-constructed at least, but the parts can fall off somewhat easily. I think there's a way to prevent that, though.
Linna was always my favorite, and that's why I have the
Linna Shrine on my homepage.
The other two BGC toys I have are the Motoslave + figures by Yamato. On the left below is the first one I bought, which was Linna. On the right was the Priss one, which I bought a year or so later. The Priss one is a metallic color variation. I normally don't care for recolor variants, but the metallic makes this look so incredibly nice that I wish the Linna one was metallic-colored also.
Isn't the metallic red one awesome? You can have the figures riding inside of the Motoslave armor, but I thought it looked cool to have Priss posing next to it. The toys come in bike modes. I never did transform Linna's bike. I was praying to God the entire time I transformed Priss's bike so that it wouldn't break. It seems like if I forced a piece the wrong way, it could break.
So looking at the color choices of the big Atelier Sai Linna hardsuit figure vs. the smaller Yamato Linna hardsuit, I must say that the former looks far better than the latter. I should find out what the metallic colored Linna one looks like.
There are also plastic model kits of the Knight Saber + Motoslave sets made by Aoshima that I've been tempted to get, but I've never bought. I wonder how sturdy those might be as compared to the Yamato figures?
Would be nice if there were translations though.
