That's a good quesiton... the included stand and double arm situation leaves a lot to be desired on the Riobot Tread/Legioss combo. I was also let down the Tread couldn't be displayed in soldier mode on the stand because there's no adapter (feels like that would be really easy to do since the bottom of the Tread in that mode is a cavity). Also, there were several members who had their Legioss stands break because the peg on the arm can't stand the weight of the Legioss pushing down on it over time... seems like a decent opportunity there.

Woof, that's a crazy price!
-
Well, at least it's more exciting than a straight reissue.
-
The jolly Roger looks funky on the helmet... They should have given him Yellow's helmet so the skull could be lower down.
-
Review spoiler: I was very let down by the knees and feet in soldier mode, and a little let down by the hips... But only because the hips don't allow a huge amount of leg flare in combined diver mode. Otherwise, I like it.
-
Yes! And much like the Sentinel Riobot, I'll drop everything I'm doing to get to it. I haven't preordered one yet though... tough to judge who would be able to ship it to me the quickest.
-
In the chest section you missed how terrible the cockpit looks hanging down the middle. Also... the big box that is the Toynami chest may look 'beefier' but it's not more correct.
-
I thought this one didn't transform and you had to buy the other modes separately? -
They probably only put an initial portion of the 500 for sale which is why it was gone so quick.
-
Yes, happy to have my Tread but my Legioss hasn't shipped from Hobby Genki.
-
Took out my Tread, put it on its landing gear and, so far, I'm very impressed.
-
Toynamishop shows it will be available again in August/September. Hopefully I'll snag one then.
-
Totally agree, would be fun to see some Macross inspired paint schemes in these products.
-
That's very interesting because Sentinel products previously were very clearly not licensed by HG. I presumed the Japan only nature of this release indicated the continuing of that trend. Maybe we're about to see more reissues now with HG branding.
-
Looks like they're leaning hard into weathering versions.
-
When I had friends at Sentinel, they said they were having a hard time justifying the mold costs because they didn't think the other versions would be marketable. There was conversation about possibly doing them as exclusives but even that seemed unlikely.
-
As long as you can't see the bottom of fighter mode, it's not bad!
-
Someone get me one!
-
I think the landing gear bulge just looks more pronounced because of the lighting.
-
While that may be true, TZ hasn't offered me any alternatives. I'm also only waiting on parts so the value would be minimal, not sure if that makes things better or worse.
-
Nothing is incoming from TZ... They still haven't shipped items to me blaming Trump's tariffs... Grumble grumble.
-
Mospeada is back!
-
Oops, I forgot to order this one! I'll have to find one in Manda.
-
Totally unexpected.
-
The whole mold fits that description but it doesn't mean it doesn't look cool.
