    Although I enjoy my Miracle Voltron a lot, one thing that bugged me was that due to their engineering you had to switch the feet in Land Team mode resulting in them being on the wrong side. It's great to see the SOC version get this and so many other things right!

    I'm gonna try out the strike parts tomorrow on the red/white version!

    Well it arrived and the pain is now less I'll leave it to the reviewers to review but one thing I'll quickly mention I'm particularly happy abut is the whole thing is finished in a very nice matte finish which may resolve some of the chipping issues the previous gloss white version had around the chest plate. In love the colors...what a cool piece!

    I know the original line art gave the foot vehicles large(r) front bumpers...but if I were to have only one critique from what's been revealed so far, and not that beggers can be choosers (and I've been begging for one of these forever) the bumpers imo really stand out and seem just a tad bit too long. It reminds me of the early Volvos when they were pioneering their crash safety rating and developing their ultra-shock-absorbing bumpers... Other than that I'm super excited and ready to pre-order!

    Don't mean to interrupt the discussion on wedge plates just want to post the latest put-together and figured this was the best place... the lineup... cowl hatch open... ...basically saw something similar online and tried to make my own.

    If anyone's interested in the 12" Sofubi Marmit Garland there's an unopened one at Madarake --> https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1103358099&ref=list&soldOut=1&keyword=メガゾーン23&lang=en

    came across this interesting background track ... do you remember it

    Honestly, I don't know how else you'll come across them AND it be with a seller who's willing to ship international ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There are some really cool lego builds (vol.2) and unique art in them I've never seen anywhere else (like Bahamote B.D Coffee Vending Machines - vol.1). Even one of our forum's VF-2SS gurus, SAVE, had an ad in one for his website otaku2.com (now defunct) in a fun, McDonalds-esque style, promoting a MegaMac 2 sandwich

    Yes, Volumes 0, 1, & 2 and as a fan I can highly recommend all three of them! That was a tremendous guess you made btw! edit - after closer inspection the bike that daBlah posted is slightly different (way more pointier) than the way it is actually shown in Vol. 0

    That is correct, the concept/design was featured in Festival Times and referred to as: Lost Possibility Megazone 23 – Special Contents: Concept of New Megazone. It's from c. 2008 and planning at the time: Keisuke Hirota and the mechanical design: R-AREA. It features: The Crossline Garland (has wheels for feet) Army Garland GR-II (featured in above post but in army green vs. traditional colors) Strike Garland (blue and white version with armor parts) Garland 1+1 (unique 2-seater garland) Moto Flagger (an updated flagger that looks like a Madox-01 flying head that turns into a motorcycle) Sport Garland (looks like a crotch-rocket, think Kawaskai Ninja meets MZ23) Maneuver Slave B-Type (updated Hargun from pt. I) Maneuver Slave A-Type (updated Hargun from pt. II) Maneuver Slave C-Type (maybe updated Hargun pt. III ?) Special Ghost Harland (highly stylized VF-27 lucifer-like: plane/quadruped/robot) Mystery Garland (looks like a cross from Maximilian from Black Hole and a re-imagined cylon)

    Just wanting to add this to this thread like before...another holy grail MZ23 item. This is a pre-colored GR-2 Garland from MZ23 Part II also designed by Hiroshi Imizu. Like the previous Garland from page 3 of this thread that he did, it is very small (1/48 scale), and usually sells for upwards of $400-$500 if you can find one and was only available at the 2019 Wonder Festival.

    The closest I've seen is the Hasegawa Limited Edition 1/72 F-15 Active --> https://www.super-hobby.com/products/F15-Active-IFCS.html

    Love my shirt! A lot better quality than other shirts I've bought online. Thanks for designing it...I bought 2 other designs as well!

    A DX YF-29 that I converted into a "VF-31"-ish build after a wear-n-tear mishap [LINK]

    and this... but I'll stop here because it does look cool...as long as you don't touch it!!!

    This sums up my feelings towards my ownership of the Freeing E=X Garland...

    Easter egg discovery - took the cover off the Megazone 23 artbook (discussed earlier in this thread) that came with the Megazone 23 Complete Box set and lo and behold hidden on the reverse side unfolds a huge 26.5"x 11" poster of a peculiar looking Garland. Perhaps most notable is the exposed front disc brakes and calipers (huge departure from the original line art). It has the silver front axle shoulders and forearm handles with no side view mirrors like the original Garland. But then has the back-calf flaps of the Proto-Garland (but in silver instead of bronze), and front brown knee-cap/shin armor (again like the original), but then overall shares some resemblance with the proportions of the E=X Garland! While I was at it, here's the 6 Garland's featured on the cover of the book... As mentioned, this is the only difference from the "Manuever Book" released separately and the one included in the box set.

    so....slightly off topic, but I was at the pet store with my kids just looking around and turned the corner and saw these two birds just chilling in their cage and thought, "Hey, that looks like..." well, you know what I thought.
  23. Bobby
    Same here...it really grew on me as well and I'm very much looking forward to it!

    Getting excited for more releases!!!

    This is probably obvious but just a tip for searching on any of these proxy buyers. You will discover (if you haven't already) that english won't work unless it's a call sign or model number ( for ex. AV-98 ). You can use Wikipedia or anime database since they usually have the Katakana or Kanji spelling for the series at the very beginning of the entry so just copy and paste in search bar of your preferred proxy buyer and "voila!" ...hundreds if not literally thousands of results for acquiring your favorite toy/series/mech/book/etc and...
