trueblueeyes Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Somebody pinch me because I'm afraid that I might be dreaming this. Any pics of robot mode yet? What about release date and the expected price? I can't wait for this toy. Hope they make both versions of the Garland...transformable motorcycles rule! Quote
zeo-mare Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 that looks awesome, any idea of the size of it? also is'nt there another one coming out from a different company as well, does anyone have the pics for that. Quote
Kin Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 (edited) Awesome! just a wild guess.... 25cm? Edited August 30, 2004 by Kin Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 man that's dope. I still haven't seen megazone23 yet, but I still want that bike! Quote
Hikuro Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 oh that's a must have, it needs a lil shogo too! damn thing better transform to G-form or I'mah be mad it also needs to be a Hargun when ever they get the chance for that! Wonder if they'd make a Original Garland? Or maybe even E=X Garland? Those weren't bad looking. Quote

Trueblueeyes: The robot in anime looks like the one on the pic: From the bike's prototype, it looks similar to the pic. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 You think Yamato USA will be able to release it? I mean, since ADV holds the rights to Megazone 23 (the anime at least). And since ADV is basically HG... Quote
Beltane70 Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 I hope they do some of the other Megazone 23 mecha, especially some of the ones from part 2. I'd LOVE to see a Wilde Sau, or Garland GR-0002A! Quote
Mechamaniac Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 You think Yamato USA will be able to release it? I mean, since ADV holds the rights to Megazone 23 (the anime at least). And since ADV is basically HG... Feh, who cares as long as we have HLJ, Valk Exchange, TwinMoons, etc etc. Quote
Hikuro Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 So basically their going with the Part 2 color scheme? Since Part 1 was a redish/orange and white. Quote
SDFcommander Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 That does look really cool! How is the anime? Is it out on DVD? I was thnking about trying to track it down. Does anyone have any screen shots of this in motorcycle mode and in robot mode? Quote
JELEINEN Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 That does look really cool! How is the anime? Is it out on DVD? I was thnking about trying to track it down. Parts I and II are excellent, though most fans tend to like one a lot more than the other (I'm partial to II myself). Avoid Part III like the plague. All three parts are currently available from ADV. Quote
JELEINEN Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 That toy looks awesome. In the Wonderfest thread in the Toys section there's a shot of a Microman toy posed on the bike. I wonder if it will be able to still hold the figure in robot mode. Quote
Hikuro Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Here's the line art of the Garland from Part 1 to Part III, from what I'm seeing on the toy, this will be more close to the variation of Part 1 compared to Part 2 which had a very funky yet amazingly detailed styled. I wonder if they'll make an E=X Garland that'd be intersting to see moving hydrolic pistons on the legs! While the story wasn't great, I did like the Mecha. Quote
eugimon Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 hmm, looks interesting, never really cared for the anime so I'm not terribly excited by the toy... but it looks good, if it has a decent price, I'll probably pick one up. Quote
Keith Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Very cool. Now if someone (other than Toynami) would do Ride Armor in a similar scale. Quote
Bariaburu Faita Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 The prototype was shown at 2 booths, but they are identical. Atelier-sai is the sculptor and had one at his booth(with figure) And yamato had an identical copy at their booth. I didnt see one in robot mode and neither one would let people touch the Garlands. It is perfect variable and looks like a pilot figure would fit inside. It would have to be much smaller than what you see in the anime though. If it sells well they might make the other ones. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 AHHHHHHH!!!!!! I knew it was Megazone. Finally we see the dream materialized Quote
ChristopherB Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 (edited) I've been looking forward to this release for a while, ever since Graham had dinner with the guy from Yamato and alluded to the release of something from an anime besides Macross. Does anyone have information regarding the (2) jets shown in the picture above. The medium blue one in the upper left hand corner, and the light blue one at the bottom both look pretty sweet. Do they transform? What do they look like in battroid mode? Do they play a pretty big role in the anime? If so, perhaps Yamato will make them next. Edited August 31, 2004 by ChristopherB Quote
EXO Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 You think Yamato USA will be able to release it? I mean, since ADV holds the rights to Megazone 23 (the anime at least). And since ADV is basically HG... I don't think HG decided to renew their Megazone license and they no longer hold it. But who knows what they'll claim. ADV has an exclusive deal to do HG material but that doesn't mean HG=ADV. Quote

ADV has an exclusive deal to do HG material but that doesn't mean HG=ADV. They no longer hold the rights to MZ23, and they only had part 1 cause of Robotech the movie. I asked them about it a long time ago and they said they had lost the rights and weren't planning to get them back really....I'll email them about this later see what they deal is. Since ADV is an affiliate with HG, its possible they could uptain the rights if they really felt it nessessary, but I'll say no....

Do they play a pretty big role in the anime? If so, perhaps Yamato will make them next. The other figures in the picture are the Flaggan (I think is the name) which is the hover craft just infront of the Garland, behind it in robot form is the Hargun which is a cannon fodder variation of the Garland, in Part 2 the Harguns pretty much went thru a big overhaul in appearance... The ones up top and below the Garland are the cannon fodder jet planes used to combat the Delzag in parts 1 and 2, you never really ever see them unless theres a battle in space. A nifty trick is that the Hargun and the Flaggan can connect with eachother to be like a special unit carrier. And than it can just release the Hargun and walah! But no, the fighters do not transform sadly, only Garlands and Harguns are the only ones I've seen be able to transform. Hell after part 1, you ONLY see the Garland transform, there's only like 1 scene I think when Shogo and his gang are being chased by Harguns that you ever see those transform. Quote
Hoptimus Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Where is Shawn? He should be celebrating right now. Quote
Rune Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 (edited) I've never seen the anime but it looks cool. The toy on the other hand looks really tight! Yamato has a way of making me broke. Edited August 31, 2004 by Rune Quote
EXO Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Very cool. Now if someone (other than Toynami) would do Ride Armor in a similar scale. Remember last winter's Mospeada figures? I wonder if Toynami will hire the sculptor for them like they did the VF-1 SPs Quote
bsu legato Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Wha-wha-what?! What the heck are those Ride Armors? Capsule toys? Quote
Majestic Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 A Garland! YES! Can't wait. (Although given Yamato's release record, I'm sure I'm in for at least a year-long wait. Still waiting on that scopedog) Cheers to Yamato for releasing some awesome stuff, though! Quote
Anubis Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Very cool. Now if someone (other than Toynami) would do Ride Armor in a similar scale. Remember last winter's Mospeada figures? I wonder if Toynami will hire the sculptor for them like they did the VF-1 SPs Are those the superposable cyclones? Quote
EXO Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Yeah (though NOT Toynami), they were from the last wonder fest. Noel posted some pics of them... Not these but his own... Quote
Hikuro Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Please don't tell me I'm the only one who thinks those things there look like crap 0_o.....they look...........god is there really a word to describe? Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Yeah (though NOT Toynami), they were from the last wonder fest. Noel posted some pics of them... Not these but his own... so are these available yet or what? Or are these just fan made figures? I gots ta know! These look pretty cool and I want them! Quote
