>>6501186I think they mean they want to make a Shinki-like figure out of Glyos parts, not produce an entirely new product themselves.
>>6501477A good starter pack would be a Buildman, Glyan, and at least two each of axis joints, hub sets, and swing joints. It's a bit pricey for a starter perhaps, but it'll give you a good amount of stuff to start building and exploring with. Maybe I'd throw in a Traveler too if you can afford it, just to give you a sorta well rounded idea of mainline Glyos.
I also second the comment above, Bio Masters + Kabuto Mushi is a good time.
