Yeah, this toy sucks compared to later dx releases, I'm not excited if they haven't made basic improvements.
-
So does that mean it's coming soon?
-
I would definitely second that! It feels like a no brainer with the secondary market demanding a premium on the QC plagued first release and the PF treatment having been done to the two other toys. C'mon Arcadia, get on it! Also, do a limited run of the CF at the same time and you'll save on costs!
-
Haha, I thought of doing one also!
-
Have you considered a Polymega?
-
Whoa, this was wild, I decided to try my Robotech version (once I realized they were the same I was going to just sell it off but now I had to know). In my Robotech version there's an extra baggy that includes two more bracers, one of each L&R. In more awesome news, the ones in the blister were screwed up in the opposite way from my Japanese release! Big S, check your Robotech release for a baggy of corrected parts.

The one in that pic looks like it would have the same problem. Funny follow-up, I opened up an Acid Rain Stronghold figure I have to show the weapons attached to the ride armor... first time I ever opened it. That toy has guns on either side of the head and wouldn't you know it... it came with two guns for the left side and none for the right. Is this just a joke they like to play? That's even more serious though since the guns are staggered differently left and right and the ride armor issue is just paint.
-
I would do a video on it. I couldn't convince myself to spend money on the first KOs because they were all paint jobs I owned the original toy on but if they're going to do things Arcadia never would, that seems fair game to me. I've never ordered from ShowZStore though, and I hate the idea of an open preorder with no solid ETA... so I'll probably wait before I put an order in somewhere.

Does anyone have the B2Five Yellow figure? It appears I received two right-hand bracers/gauntlets for mine. In bike mode, if I point the motorcycle to the right, the number is "10". If I point the bike to the left, the number is an upside down 10. Does anyone have the 10 look right in both directions? I just want to confirm it's a packaging issue for the one I have and not a universal problem.
-
This will probably be the first KO I grab of the Yamato/Arcadia design.
-
Look mom, no hands! That's some cool art though.
-
They haven't even released a normal GBP so nothing official yet.
-
This is just the same toy with super parts?
-
Probably Valkyrie Factory again.
-
They're a huge downgrade from the Arcadia in terms of feel, that's for sure. If you have the money and the desire to own only one, the choice is clear.
-
I think Aramaki worked on Halo so that probably makes sense.
-
My understanding of the Robo Dou line is that it has a 'metal skeleton' but I think that just means they make the joints metal and the rest of the toy is plastic. I don't know though, haven't handled them myself.
-
I would definitely buy, even with my sentinels, if someone could salvage the molds.
-
Lol, I don't think it matters that I want it because I don't I'll be able to get it.
-
I think they'll do a sleeve. Curious if they'll make the parts available separately.
-
I agree with that... But I also believe the right engineering can get you close. Sentinel's Legioss did things no one thought was possible for that design to become a toy. The issue may be that the amount of engineering required would make the toy crazy expensive or no fun like the Draken.
-
I remember seeing pics of all the prototype parts (which I think Yacolog had) but the molds themselves? No idea.
-
Sigh... that's true. They were so close to releasing Houquet also. What's more frustrating, someone got the molds and probably just tossed them.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
jenius replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
There's a HUGE difference in articulation from the chunkies to today. Bandai really should have made articulation improvements when they did earlier reissues... At least a knee swivel, back joints at the hips would have also been great. I doubt they would do it now though since it would compete with their own products.- 17765 replies

Okay, so it sounds like folks who can't get it at the event will have a chance to order it through the Tamashii website? Sounds like what we saw for the Hajate 31 movie version.
