Mog’s Last Custom Mecha Hurrah. . . Most Likely(?)
jenius replied to Mog's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Well that's cool! Did you think about making the top of the cockpit red like the CM's? -
And who might get it first?
-
After release, there will be plenty available, probably cheaper than Luna Park. I still see the clear VF-1S popping up so I'm not worried about it.

It's just confusing semantics, it's limited to 500 units. The second wave is the last 300 units that are shipping in September.

The green hue in that photo may be the result of white balance or reflection from all the blue around it. It doesn't mean a bit of green in the shade wouldn't look nice though.
-
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.
