electric indigo Posted February 7 Posted February 7 HMAGARAGE is still busy with their 1/72 F-15 kai Quote
Bobby Posted February 9 Posted February 9 (edited) ^ Love the F-15 Kai! Ever since I saw the cover art for the Patlabor/Zoids Crossover I'd been looking for more info on the unit in the background of the Tenjin art due to the unique design features ... When I saw the following I thought, "That's awesome!" ... did anyone catch that this is currently under development at 1/35 scale? Edited February 9 by Bobby Quote

MechTech Posted February 12 Posted February 12 Thanks for sharing! The transport will be COOL in 1/35th! - MT Quote
Duymon Posted February 12 Posted February 12 ther 1/60th transport from moderoid is already huge so the 1/35th one will need a large shelf to display O_o Quote
tekering Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Well, damn... It'll cost nearly a grand to pre-order all three, but... how can I say no to a trio of 1:14 Ingrams? 😍 Of course, if the elementary school doesn't renew my contract this year, I may have to settle for only Unit 1... 🤔 Quote
Bobby Posted February 23 Posted February 23 (edited) Another cool Labor mashup (this time by kevin_lsn) using Yutaka Izubuchi's MS-18E Kampfer... Edited February 23 by Bobby Quote

tekering Posted February 29 Posted February 29 International orders now available through CD Japan or Nin-Nin Game. Quote
MechTech Posted February 29 Posted February 29 That - ting - is - 'uge!!! I would need a new case to put it in - and a new wallet to replace my old wounded one too😁 - MT Quote
MKT Posted March 31 Posted March 31 I was thinking of selling my Robo-Dou Ingrams and make do with just the Robot Spirits Ingrams and Labors, but with the Robo-Dou Labor Carrier coming, it will be a very nice complement set. Love the fact that the vehicles are also designed by Kawamori. Quote
MKT Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Just found out the Threezero Ingrams & Griffon are being reissued, all to be released in Q3 2024: https://www.threezerohk.com/product/robo-dou-ingram-unit-1/ https://www.threezerohk.com/product/robo-dou-ingram-unit-2-unit-3-compatible-set-2/ https://www.threezerohk.com/product/robo-dou-griffon/ Quote
no3Ljm Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Updates from ThreeZero for their Robo-Dou Carrier: "The Patlabor Type 99 Special Labor Carrier will (to be confirmed) be included in the Die Cast Vehicle line. Radio-controlled functions allow forward and reverse steering, as well as lighting and lifting . Since it is still a prototype, its operation is still being improved." Quote

MKT Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Radio control function sounds cool, but I rather it didn't come with electronics. We really aren't gonna be zooming the carrier around the park with Labor in tow Quote
Tking22 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 If ThreeZero are re-issuing the 1-3 Labors and Griffin I may sell off my Side Labor collection and buy in on the core three. I'll might skip Griffin, and I don't care about the transport units, I just really like the core 3 and in a larger, more detailed scale, they look pretty good. Reminds me of back in the day when I had three of the Yamato Labors, good times. Quote

We really aren't gonna be zooming the carrier around the park with Labor in tow No intention of buying, but just to insert my $.02, that truck is amazing, and while I also generally eschew electronics in my toys, the implementation is simply stunning, especially the tilting bed. It's amazingly realistic and adds that extra bit of cool to an already cool vehicle. Now if the Ingram was also RC and you could walk it off the truck, that would really be something! I imagine that's where toy tech is headed in the next 50 years. We already have walking, talking, self-transforming Transformers courtesy of Robosen. Love the Griffon's design. Threezero's is gorgeous, but with LEGO and Transformers central to my collecting and display space extremely minimal, I'll continue to be content with my little Kaiyodo. Quote
MKT Posted April 3 Posted April 3 Hopefully the tilting mechanism will be further tweaked. It was a bit scary when the bed suddenly jumped a few notches as it was lifting. But at least we know the Ingram is secured or pegged some way onto the bed rather than just being laid there, otherwise it would have been thrown off the table. Quote
MechTech Posted April 3 Posted April 3 What do I think of the R/C function? "Interests:Models of: Macross - Aircraft - Armor - Warships and R/C Makes it better!" I agree, that may put it out of everyone's price range. Maybe the "catapult" action helps the Ingram get out into action faster!? 🤣 - MT Quote

I didn't see it in action, just the pics. Watched the vid. Yeah, a herky-jerky mechanism controlling a surface that large with a sizeable and potentially fragile load, no less, should definitely be smooth-acting. Until a certain point, it seems as if there's a spring-loaded mechanism helping to propel the bed up. At the lower end, it seems like the spring is held in check whilst the motor moves it to a certain point at which point something releases and the spring, or potentially compressed air in those cylinders, gives it that rapid upward jerk. I think it'd be better served using gear-driven linear actuators. It would be a slower ascent, but at least it'd be a smoother action. 2 minutes ago, MechTech said: What do I think of the R/C function?

no3Ljm Posted April 4 Posted April 4 MaxFactory Plamax MF-75 Ingram Bust with Alphonse release schedule is on April 11, 2024. Quote
Big s Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Moderoid mark 2 and economy both went up for preorder at the usual spotswas getting a little worried. We hadn’t had any new moderoids for Patlabor in a lil bit. Hope there’s still more to come. Quote
Big s Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Looks like an alternate version of the mark 2 , I think it’s just a recolor. Available othe Goodsmile website Quote
Duymon Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Just preordered 2 of each of the Ingram Econos. Love the design. Might even grab the recolor from goodsmile later on. Quote

They definitely look great. I don’t have as much space to do doubles, but I preordered one of each of the standard ones and on the fence on the recolor because I could just repaint the thing tan, but the clear part is a different thing.

Every moderoid has come with spare clear parts up until now for customizing so you should still be good with the standard kit and repainting Quote

I’ll wait for it to release and see if this one does come with a spare clear part, then I’ll probably get a second one and put clear blue over the visor Quote
