  1. Voltes V and Mekanda are the two earliest examples I can remember. Voltes V has excellent Chogokin toys. Mekanda toys are mega rare, and when I do find them, they are in not the best condition.
  2. That's quite a delay. I remember hoping Willis would come around the same time as Gundog to get a better comparison between the two. In the end I got a dark green Gundog since I wanted a Hound that was more toy accurate, and Gundog certainly delivered in spades. I actually just applied Toyhax's labels on him, and they look fantastic. He's now essentially a highly upgraded G1 Hound toy. I can't really ask for more in a MP-styled Hound.
  3. Zillion is already on Blu-Ray; a set was released last year for around $300. I splurged and decided I $200 liked it.
  4. Sentinel does Mazinkaiser. I'm not liking the additional detail and lines, especially on the legs, but it certainly looks like one of the more posable Mazinkaisers out there.
  5. I'm definitely not as enthusiastic about Hot Rod as I am with Shockwave. It sucks-I passed up on MP Ultra Magnus, and I'm gonna pass up on Hot Rod as well.
  6. Nice! I had a mind to track one of those down or maybe something bigger to play my Guncon games, but it'll have to wait.
  7. If I saw a room like that when I was 12 years old, I would've dropped a load.
  8. I reckon this was released again to coincide with the Leynos remake for the PS4. It doesn't look like there are any differences with the original release.
  9. Yeah, tough choice indeed. I'm leaning more towards MMC for now. As you pointed out, Backdraft has a much better face sculpt. The ladder in bot mode doesn't protrude as much as Hellfire's, and the overall proportions for Backdraft pretty much are spot on. His "wings" could be a little smaller, but that's just a minor niggle.
  10. Is anyone else torn on what 3rd party Inferno to get? I initially wanted Maketoys' Hellfire, but MMC's Backdraft, despite being lankier, seems to be more similar to its G1 counterpart. MMC's early bird pricing is also quite tempting.
  11. I recall hearing about Figureheads being SquareEnix's new mech shooter, supposedly like Sega's Border Break. How it crosses with Xenogears is anyone's guess for now. I guess we'll find out in two days.
  12. I you liked FM4, you'll love FM5. There was a scant rumor of a new FM in the works, but I reckon any new FM will be in the fashion of FM Evolved...
  13. I REALLY like what I see of MT Guardian, but I'm also holding out for MMC's Defensor. There's been nothing but CG lineart for their Hot Spot and speculation on what the other Protectobots will look like, but the rumored Studio OX inspired designs have left my finger off the trigger in buying Guardian. Speaking of MMC, a new face for my Sphinx arrived from Hong Kong almost 4 weeks after I requested one. The default one my Sphinx had was scratched up real bad, so kudos to their customer service!
  14. Yeah, it's not cheap, but the colors match dead on and it saves me the trouble of painting in the omissions Takara made to get Exhaust on the shelves.
  15. From Wonderfest comes this pic on Tag Hobby. I haven't heard of A ZONE, but I must know more about this Madox.
  16. I bought a sheet of stickers for MP Exhaust on Ebay recently. While they look great, the creator/vendor did not mention they are not precut. So if you get these, expect to do a lot of cutting. And while the markings have outlines on them, some major trimming is still in order for the markings to be properly placed. The stock used is thick, yet pliable enough to hug curved surfaces. The stickers were printed on both white and clear stock, and a few markings that were printed on clear stock should definitely have been printed on the white one. Here's how it came out:
  17. That sounds interesting. I didn't know there was a lot of empty space right directly below Ironhide's back.
  18. Was it a fan-mode or a mod like this one?
