ARGH!! I need that MAX Rau.

Are there any new pics of the Miriya fig?

[holytoledo69]

IM getting these, Im wondering if the one with the helmet fits in the Q-rau

[Graham]

I'm 99.99% sure that it fits in the Q-Rau.

[holytoledo69]

here's another shot

[Kamui 777]

holytoledo69, are those out yet? I need those!!

[holytoledo69]

As of yet.. I dont thinks so. Kevin doesnt have them for pre-order on his site yet ( atleast the last time i Looked) If I buy these figures, IM going to be forced to buy the RED Q-Rau

[valkyrietestpilot]

so is that pic of the CMS millia? i've not seen the figure that comes w/ the q-rau up close,so i'm not sure.why did they make her hips all over-bulbous like that? maybe,it's the uniform that's giving them that appearance?

Yup, it's her "utility pockets".

Is there going to be a Max figure to pilot the Max Q-Rau??

None has been announced, though I personally doubt it. Still, you never know.

[valkyrietestpilot]

so what other CMS figures are gonna be in this series? is millia the only 1 that's been confirmed? there's usually like 6 in a series or something...right? any other pics around of the others in the series?

[EXO]

Miria's in a set of her own, with three figures. Not the next trading set.

[Metal_Massacre_79]

Any reason why they didn't make this figure fully articulated? Wouldn't it have made more sense to do that so you could place the figure inside the toy as well as pose it in front of it if you wanted to?

[valkyrietestpilot]

so millia will be an exclusive release? that made sense to me right up till the part were you said there was 3 of them.3 millias in 1 box? in different poses or something? or will there be 3 variants that you could possibly get when you buy 1.she'll fit in yamato's q-rau too?? is that a quinky-dink or is CMS working with yamato on that? help!!! i'm so lost!!!

[Retracting Head Ter Ter]

Yeah, given that pose she is in (who the hell would stand outside a cockpit like that? Thats the 'frozen in carbonite' pose!) I am 99.99999% sure she would fit in the toy.

[valkyrietestpilot]

thanks EXO for posting those pics of the other figures.now i'm clued in & set straight

that pose she's in that you mentioned "retracting head ter ter" kinda reminds me of a pilot testing a flight suit functions before deployment.like,she's checking helmet seal integrity & making sure her finger mounted controls are sycronizing w/ her power armour,etc.so,i think a pilot would maybe stand in that position outside of a mech for those reasons.just a random thought i had when i saw her in that pose

[rocco_77]

Is there going to be a Max figure to pilot the Max Q-Rau??

None has been announced, though I personally doubt it. Still, you never know.

That is so freaking stupid... Why go through the trouble of sculpting a detailed cockpit, and then leave it without a freaking pilot!!!???

I really love Yamato products, but their thinking here is boarderline Toynami.

[Graham]

Gotta say I don't like CM's sculpt of Milia's face. Looks nothing like her IMO.

Graham

Just a quick note that we will be getting a small shipment of the CM's Millia figures. Don't have pricing info yet so we're not taking pre-orders, but just wanted to let you guys know.

I just got an email from Hobbysearch Japan, saying they just got the Mirias in stock. So maybe you other people that pre-ordered will be getting yours soon!

Graham

Ya it doesn't look like her much plus she's smiling

How can she be viewed as a bad ass with that look on her face?

Oh well I preordered a set awhile ago anyway. Anything is better than that hunk of plastic that came with the Q-rau.

[Anubis]

Millia's out!

Hobby Search has her listed in stock.

Guessing the q-rau pilot is behind the other two.

where's the third figure? I hope you're right Anubis.... Edited August 26, 2004 by >EXO<

  where's the third figure? I hope you're right Anubis....

Well, it does say 'Figure 3 Pieces Set' on the cover of the box, so I'm sure it will be in there.

Graahm

[Anubis]

It's there.

Here's a bigger shot. It's between and behind the front two.

Nice body sculpt, but that's not Milia's face. I guess CM's just used their generic anime girl # 6 headsculpt or whatever

Graham

[EXO]

looks good!

[eugimon]

have to agree, doesn't look like miriya at all... but still looks better than the miriya supplied with the q-rau.... finally I will be able to pose mine with the hatch open with pride.

[Wabbit]

Maybe you should swap bodyparts to get the other figures..

[Zentrandude]

green eyebrow?

[yellowlightman]

The title on the box looks weird, like they messed up while printing it. Saw it in person today in Akihabara. Looks good thought.
