So, does this mean we're all getting Ley'ed on the 3rd of May?

I have a bunch of peeves with the parts easily popping off, but for the most part it's solid. I think we have only seen one pic of an actual break so far. If you have the Beagle, Megahouse or CMs then you should know what to expect - a fiddly toy that takes some getting used to. I wouldn't go in expecting a Masterpiece Transformer level of design quality, but as far as development goes it doesn't get much better than T-REX. Realistically, at 1:12 scale it isn't going to get much better than this, but the random armor popping off is a legitimate annoyance. Whoever asked - The helmet cones apart by applying a mild amount of gentle sideways force to the chin guard and moving it forward over a nub. The face then comes off easily and the visor slides out in a forwards direction - it's held in place by very small nubs where it rotates.

Yeah, about 10 hours ago.
-
They have been around for years. I bought some Transformers from them a few years ago - no problems.
-
Yeah, so I think he does the Mercy Rabbit MOSPEADA illustrations, like the box art for the Sentinel Ride Armor. They also did illustrations for the WAVE Legioss kits and MOSPEADA Complete Art Works book. Incredible attention to detail, especially the WAVE boxes.
-
Is that the guy that does the MOSPEADA illustrations?
-
It's a nice figure but the shin and shoulder caps keep popping off at the slightest touch.
-
Sweet, thanks! Nice pics! How difficult was it to take the helmet apart? I'll probably end up 3D printing my own visor through Shapeways (as I only have a FDM printer). Or I might have to hassle Plastic Cretins to see if he'd be interested...
-
That implies to me he rotated it too far and it broke... One of the reasons I prefer HLJ or Hobby Search, I know they will do their best to replace a piece like that if they can, or refund/return it. Mine should be here in 41 hours... Yes, I'm counting down the hours now.
-
While you can make obvious comparisons, they are different toys. The Beagle is my 2nd favorite toy next to the 1/48 Yamato Valkyrie, even though the Yamato 1/60 version is a better refined toy. Are those the T-REX add-on parts or third party?
-
Does this credit him?
-
Darn. Oh yeah, I think that could be an Aramaki illustration, but couldn't make out his name in the credits. It's also a much older illustration, but I still prefer the Blowsperior cowling to the other variants.
-
Are there any official Aramaki designs for a "neo" Bartley or Blowsoerior? I think the ones posted earlier were fan creations...
-
97% Isopropyl alcohol at a guess. Should remove paint without fogging up the clear plastic.
-
Thanks! Looks like it's easy enough to take the helmet apart. Looks better without the mud guard/fender too.
-
There will probably be the same story when Ray releases. Limited stock that has been canceled or refunded available at release. I think there are certain Apps that alert you, but I don't really use them. Grab that Stick if you want it, it probably won't be there too long...
-
HLJ has it in 'LOW STOCK' status NOW. Sold out pretty much everywhere else, until limited refunded stock appears... https://hlj.com/product/SET88026
-
So I should be getting good news from HLJ tomorrow morning. Possibly followed by some bad bank account news if that Evo Toys Zeta Legioss actually releases this month...
-
Anime Export have the VF-31A for 47800 JPY. Even at that price it probably won't last long... http://www.anime-export.com/product/39697
-
After a big night out, a young Shoji Kawamori came home and transformed his VF-1 prototype, but passed out mid way through. The next morning he discovered gerwalk mode.
-
Seems almost unreal that in about ten days these will be arriving at out doors.
-
Is there a Premium Edition without the tampo printing?
-
Yeah, always weirds me out that they never re-issued or re-decoed the YF-30 or 19A. They were awesome Valks.
