I voted that I'm down for anything the legit rights-holders wouldn't touch by I can also see where that's playing in a gray area sandbox with very little real definition. Yamato proved they were pretty much willing to do anything so it's tough to say "they'd never do that, I'll support 3P!" I think the SD SDF-1 is a slam dunk since Bandai is the only one that has ever considered doing anything SD and they only gave us one SD VF-25F and then abandoned that line.

So no sightings of the product on the street yet?

It might make one more person that'd need to make money off it but it wouldn't be more than that (I'd think).

I preordered one from Lunar, I'll be reviewing it.

C'mon Bandai! DO IT!

Monster MK V "PORCUPINE". I have to question if only the three cannons left on the arms (or missile launchers or whatever those are) is sufficient? I think we could probably layer a few more arms on top of that... and some tiny useless pouches.

I think repaints and exclusives are a sure bet but may take a while... Unless the reception to this toy is colder on Japan.

I saw this thread get bumped and was hoping Bandai had announced Paladin parts.

The braces on mine locked in incredibly tight, it was a little scary popping them back off. The bracket pegs in exactly like the intakes do in fighter mode. On the one where you keep having it fall out, do the intakes also fall out really easily? That would be a nightmare. My transformation video is now also posted. Thanks to everyone that's been checking the review out!

Check signature. Thanks.

Thanks guys! Video review is up, transformation guide will follow after work. I'll embed both videos on the site then also.

My review is uploading now, it should be published in the morning unless I get stupid Youtube errors like I did with my last ride armor review. I had to upload that one three times . The transformation video will go up after work.

I'm surprised there's no 'renewal YF-21' on the list. It offers repaints also in the M7 license. I'm fairly certain it won't happen but it seems like a more logical choice then most of the listed options. A V3 VF-1 is also probably more likely than a lot of the options on the list since VF-1 sales are a proven winner and there's lots of mold milking possibilities.

The thing that seems silly is the implication that Hasbro is benefiting from a practice that in all likelihood is very detrimental to their business. The notion that they could be increasing profit by losing market share is... bizarre. If they thought there was a market for lower priced toys they would make lower priced toys (and do). So yeah, the factories might be making the same toy and delivering some to Hasbro and pushing some out the backdoor.- 17082 replies

Has/Tak has an issue with their factories that's leading to these knock-offs. It probably started with someone selling rejects as KOs and then they were like "why don't we just make some extras".- 17082 replies

So if they're doing a knock off then we probably have a reissue coming right?- 17082 replies

Yar, that's pretty friggin' awesome.

Have you tried transforming it once and back? There are lots of tabs so it's possible it looks off center in fighter mode because a tab or two became unseated.

And only 25% more expensive than a YF-30 Chronos toy... what a bargain!

I'm working on putting together the videos now but in the mean time I've got the article up on my site. Let me know if I missed something!

If anyone has a version 2 Takara Hot Rod masterpiece that they don't really feel that attached to but might want to trade it or sell it, let me know. I have a version 1 and would like to have both so I could compare them first hand. I did take my Fairlady Z toys out of their boxes and have been enjoying handling them more than I expected. A lot of the picture on the webs had me expecting these toys would be fairly stiff but I've been pleasantly surprised by the articulation.- 17082 replies
