They came with the Yamato 1/48 GBP, they detachable parts I found kind of annoying that you would slide into the side of the Battroid so it didn't have a big gap when viewed from the side. It does make the battroid look a lot better.

I see the Bandai DX VF-25 haters don't like to let the people who are okay with the VF-25 be the only ones who seem petty...

Ya know, I'm not bowled over by fighter mode either. I'll buy it, but I think I liked the 21 when I saw it's initial mock-ups more. The tailfins do make it look a little less aggressive.

Curse my slow fingers!!!

Hmmmm, this is dangerous. People defending the VF-25 are going to start making huge stinks about slight problems with the VF-11B.... EDIT - that said, if you do a lineart comparison I'd be pretty interested to see where this bad boy takes liberties ('cause I'm sure it does)

Wow, it's really over compensating for something with that head laser.

Seriously, I mean just imagine how not flush the legs will be in fighter mode. ZOMG... Yamato would make this so much better! The size isn't quite as big as I'd like but who knows how it's being measured just yet. If it's WHAM SDF-1 size I'll be a little sad, hopefully it's bigger.

Articulation looks really good but I suppose it should be with all those parts being swapped.

To be fair, the other dead give away is that if you got the Mega House it will have a giraffe neck.

I've submitted my vote, I own both and narrowly prefer the 1/60 v2. I really hope that Yamato is able to make some tweaks going forward so that the shoulders cracking isn't such a prevalent fear.

Hey, that's why I said what was "supposed" to be released this month. I have no real expectation that we'll see the MPC Beta this month but I've got one preordered and I promise that when it does rear its head I'll have it on my site within a week. EDIT - You know what would suck for me? If the Beagle is released one week before the MPC Beta. That would mean I'd get both toys at the same time and have to decide which one to review first.... Man, that'd be a tough decision.

I think I figured out why I'm not too offended by Bandai's liberties... because the VF-25 is fugly. Edit - that's just a little humor for ya folks.

yeah but at the same time it never looked very dynamic in the anime either.

Save, was there a guess at what the price point would be in order for 500 units sold to work?

I haven't spoken with them about it in months and last I did they weren't ready to have their name associated with the product yet... and when they are they'll probably make an announcement through something more reputable than me

I wonder how progress is coming on that Gosu toy... Is CMs scale 1/18 or 1/48?

Gooh, I'll have to make an edit. Thanks

Pretty sure it's the item underneath the saber... am I mistaken? To the right of the big gun.

This is all set to be a very big month for Mospeada fans. For those keeping track, and if I'm not forgetting anything, the following items are supposed to be released this month (in no particular order) 1) Beagle Ride Armor 2) Toynami Beta 3) CMs Houquet Ride Armor (Fuke) 4) CMs Shinobu Ride Armor Of course in the Macross universe we're also supposed to get the Weathered Tomahawk released later in the month and Hikaru's super VF-1J 2.0. Hope you've been saving your pennies. In the meantime, cruise by my site and see my CMs vs MH VR-41 post

Thousands? Not likely, their production runs are very small these days, only a few thousand at a shot.

So is that going to be an exclusive too or will it be just the same as the original release in price and availability?

$100??? Holy Schnikes! I guess that's in line with what they cost originally... but I'm glad I paid much less by waiting for the bargain bins.

Yeah, I had no idea how to get one...

I like the picture of the original wooden prototype toy.
