Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Yeah, too much of a gamble. I wouldn't mind the waiting if I could be sure that it will happen. 19 inches is roughly the height of the Hot Toys Power Loader including the antennae. Just a tad higher than my old AT-AT, so it's not that far fetched. I agree that the transformation would rocket the price, but then again we have people here considering getting a half meter Minmay doll that goes for 560 dollars!

dizman Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 If they ever made a 1/18 or 1/15 scale legioss and it looked good in all modes I would damn near anything to get it! That would be amazingly awesome.
eriku Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) I suggested a 1/18 scale Legioss a while back, one that the CM's figures could pilot. Glad to hear I'm not the only crazy person who'd want such a thing. I think if they kept the details very simple, made it all out of plastic and gave it articulation similar to the Gakken it could be a doable toy. Of course the price would depend on who was making it. Sometimes I wish Robotech was popular enough for Hasbro-style toys. If Hasbro did a 1/18 scale Legioss they could have it on the shelf for under $100. :edit: 1/18, not 1/8...even I'm not wacko enough to demand a 1/8 scale Legioss! Edited February 28, 2008 by eriku
EXO Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 If they ever made a 1/18 or 1/15 scale legioss and it looked good in all modes I would damn near anything to get it! That would be amazingly awesome. me too, it'd be cool to have a Legioss that the CMs rider can jump into and the bike can go into that chest area. As for the Beta , wouldnt want anything that big. I'd buy a seperate set that was 1/32 scale though as long as they don't look ike anything like the current offerings. At 1/32 they'd be big enough to get close to lineart I would think.
Vermillion21 Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) The storage needed for a 1/18 scale Legioss would be way too much ... it would need space requirements like a small end table or something. Edited February 28, 2008 by Vermillion21
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Hang it from the roof. I still have lots of space there.
Alex Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Picked up my Megahouse Ray from Akihabara today. Stuck at work so won't be able to post any reviews until tomorrow. Sorry Well, just had a quick peak at it in the box. Pretty damn nice. I saw the CM ride armour the other day and it just looks really tacky. I wonder if my boss will let me open it in the office. I guess i'll just have to BLOW MY SUPERIOR. Har har.
Vermillion21 Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 So the MH cyclones are out??? Nice. Can't wait for a review & pics ....
Fort Max Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Poseable Ariel. specially if you can swap heads with Houquet and give her Ride Armour! double W I N A G E. Who's Ariel? Is it Aisha?
Alex Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Unless someone beats me to it, i'll get a text review up tomorrow at the very least.
EXO Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Awesome, these are out? Can't wait to check them out!
ShadowerV2 Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 I wonder if my boss will let me open it in the office. I guess i'll just have to BLOW MY SUPERIOR. Har har. Made me chuckle. Good one.
UN Spacy Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Awesome news. Does it have the Blowsuperior sized wheels?
Sam Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 oh, good question, i really wanna know that too!!! fingers crossed they are! otherwise recastville for new tyres!
hutch Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Wow! Awesome to hear these are out already, I'm really looking forward to them!
Alex Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Yeah, it looks gorgeous in the box. I'm gonna have to go to Tsutaya after work and get the first volume of series on dvd so I can play it in the b/g while I play around with it. tee hee Sorry, i'm not sure what you meant by the "Blow superior sized wheels?"
hutch Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 They showed Yellow's Ride Armor at Wonderfest last weekend and the wheels are substantially "beefier" than the ones that had been shown on the Rey and Stick so far. The pic is back just a couple of pages I think....
Alex Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Ah. Sorry, yeah I get what you mean.......hang on..........hmmmmm, seems to be less beefy than the ones on Yellow's in the photos. That sucks. Actually, just opening the box to have a quick peak released all the plastiuc vapors. I think i'm tripping now. Edited February 28, 2008 by Alex
Twoducks Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Is the visor blue or purple? Can it be opened?
eriku Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Is the visor blue or purple? Can it be opened? Here's a lot of nice in-package pics. Visor does go up. Looks a little purple still, but closer to blue. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10065120
misterryno Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Here's a lot of nice in-package pics. Visor does go up. Looks a little purple still, but closer to blue. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10065120 THANKS for those!!!
Shun Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) thanks for the link actually, i've noticed a while back.... that the chest looks abit too wide? and from these pics: cons: the visor is purple the eyes..... omg.... crossed eyes... >.< why are the arms and body connected by a stick?! >.< face paintwork seems shabby pros: no seam line on the legs! bike looks nice seems like they have alot of trouble on the figures, but the mecha looks ok. neck looks shorter but thicker than promotional pics (weird body proportions). EDIT: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10065120 (Stick's ver) http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10065119 (Rey's ver) Edited February 28, 2008 by Shun
eriku Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Yeah, the face on the piece in those photos doesn't seem to be painted as well as the CMs. Odd, since the CM's is smaller. Not a deal-breaker for me though, nor is the purple visor. I really do wish the visor was blue though. What if Toynami actually does release these later on and they have blue visors and larger wheels....?

misterryno Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 I'm waiting for 2 things now...... a better job so that I can have enough money to purchase what I like. and... someone on here to not like the MH Stick (Scott) figure and sell it to me for a good price.
jenius Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 I got mine from LOS at LAFToys so this will be a good test to see how long the delay is from doing that. I imagine it will probably take him like a week to get it in and then another week to get it to me. Then it'll probably take me a week to get a review up. Man, waiting sucks.
crasis Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Wait, so the MH ones actually DO have purple visors?! WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING?! :angry: Edited February 28, 2008 by crasis
misterryno Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Wait, so the MH ones actually DO have purple visors?! WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING?! Awwww Comeon......don't you know......Purples the new Blue.
misterryno Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Well, purple has blue in it. And Red....I like red. Stick has a red top on. See red is good.....blue is good.....so....purple is good too.
mechaninac Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 And Red....I like red. Stick has a red top on. See red is good.....blue is good.....so....purple is good too. If red is good, and blue is good, wouldn't that make purple twice as good?
misterryno Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 If red is good, and blue is good, wouldn't that make purple twice as good? SEE!?! SEE!?! I knew SOMEONE would understand. It IS twice as good!!!
crasis Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 If red is good, and blue is good, wouldn't that make purple twice as good? NO! Not when my crappy little CMs figures managed to be accurate with the blue color. I'm really disappointed in MH.
