Look great, this Battroid feels "back to the roots" with its utilitarian compactness. Dare I say probably the best looking amongst all the current toy and model kit options.

Watch how the value of the original releases now plummet towards hell...

Putting a tenner down, I think there is a high chance Cavil might be the next Bond.

If anyone has both the MGEX and the Metal Build, I would love to see a side by side comparison.

Got a notification that my HasLab Victory Saber I ordered during the funding period via Zavvi was canceled due to "insufficient stock".
Apparently it is happening to other people throughout Europe that thought they backed the project through Zavvi too.
Merry Christmas to me I guess.

Merry Christmas to all of you
Holy crap, that is just terrible to be served off like that!? I don't have any invest in Victory Saber, but if I did my blood would be boiling.
How does one end up with insufficient stock for something that is made to order?

This could be THE ultimate Mazinkaiser by Sky X Studio.
Definitely the tallest at 27.5cm compared to other current options and the removable magnetic panels is pretty cool. Also the advanced articulation with those moving pistons and panels is just fantastic.
-
The Hi-Spec toy looks softer and more rounded compared to the HMR with its stronger edges and angles.
What was the size of the Orguroid from MegaHouse? I remember wanting to have one, but back then it felt too pricey for me.

But perhaps the most obvious difference is the backpack. MP-44 was widely ridiculed for having a massive backpack meant to accommodate some electronics. MS-02 not only does away with almost his entire backpack, with the thinnest front-to-back profile short of maybe TE-01, the backpack he does have is actually the only that that's cartoon-accurate. Heck, even the molded lines on the backs of his legs are more accurate.
On the topic of backpacks, it might be worth pointing out that the one on MS-02 is a bit too wide which breaks the upper body silhouette to some degree. MS unfortunately did not engineer the truck roof top collapse inwards, so your left with this somewhat unsightly bracket around the body.
The hands throw me off, I like that their fully articulated, but at the same time it looks ugly because all the fingers are the same length.

WTF.
Toynami has no bounds. They actually polish turds. Wasn’t Evolution Toys Legioss a hot mess of problems right out the gate, just like the VF-2SS?
I can only hope that Sentinel never entertain any engagement with HG or Toynami. Riobot Legioss is such a great toy, that it should not be tarnished by those two companies.
Maybe it is a good thing that the Riobot Legioss is a pricier toy, I doubt HG/Toynami could convince Robotech heads to actually invest that money in a proper toy.

For a prototype that Battroid is already looking promising, hopefully the articulation is going to allow for some fun posing.
That compact and dynamic verve in Battroid is something that is completely lost in all the modern transforming toys or model kits.

Would be awesome to replicate this in their marketing photos.
They actually did copy the poses of that cover (minus DC embargo toy machine gun) for their promo.

Nemesis Superm...The Dark Knight Falls Superman and Armored Batman, release in December.

Magazine scans and what I assume is some background info on how the YF-19 was designed.

Assuming that the figure shown is close or near to standard HMR figures based on the stand used. (FYI: I used the bolt and nut section of the stand joint as a reference to compare it with a VF-1 on a Tamashii Stand.)
Best guess would be if the figure ends up at 14.5cm, it's 1/60. If it's 12cm, it's 1/72. Orguss official height is 8.7m. Hope that helps.
21 hours ago, treatment said:My guess is the usual 1/WTF Bandai scaling.
Sizing looks to be 140mm in orgroid-mode.
Good to know, thanks guys.
Hopefully we get a Nikick to go along with the Orguss, but seeing that the Dragonar stuff didn't yield a Falguen, I'm not holding my breath.

Shin Getter competitionist's have got to be losing their minds and have broken wallets right now. Holy smokes there have been a lot of Shin Getter releases recently.
-SOC
-CCS red
-CCS black
-ThreeZero
-And now a MB.
Did I miss anything?
Technically not exactly the same, but Sentinel has the Shin Getter Dragon coming out next year.
-
Not big on the VF-19 Kai, but crossing my fingers this leads to a VF-19F/S release.

Classic visor, faceplate and four head lasers - that's what makes this the variant that matters!

I can live with a bundle, I just hope the clear packs also come with optional opaque pieces.
Investing 100+ Euro on
Strike Packsa couple of pieces of add-on plastic has been too absurd for me and so my VF-1S Hikaru has been naked all this time. -
Looks fine to me, I'm (still) in.
Unlike with the Yamato one there is actually a proper Battroid mode to be had.
