eriku Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 Hopefully the actual toy will be as nice as the drawings.
protostar8 Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Beagle prototype looks okay. The top half is nice, but the legs are too dang skinny. They'd be good legs for Hoquet, but not for the guys. They need to beef them up before release (and it's not like beefing up the legs would cause problems with transformation).
gilermo Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I'm falling more and more in love with the MH version of Ley, so many poses are possible Can't wait to get them complete the whole set and pose them together.
gilermo Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Some pics i found.. hope u guys enjoy this as much as i do... Sleek and definately on good proportions!! beagle for me.. if megahouse dun hit local shores i will order from japan to ensure my stock is confirmed!! I loved this show so much, it was my favorite of the robotech series, never could get a toy when i was a kid in The Netherlands. After all these years companies are making alpha's, beta's and cyclone's again. (legioss, tread and ride armor for you purists). These are good times we live in even with the flaws that some of these toys have . I am going to get all the MH versions, if the toynami/beagle versions live up to my expectations i'll be happily broke
Alpha OTS Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I decide to buy the CM, then the MH pics show up. I decide to buy the MH, then the Beagle pics show up. This isn't fair.

kensei Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 heh. Pays to wait. That beagle version looks the bomb. In the CAD, it does look like it has small feet, but with the actual true sculpt, it looks pretty good!
Vermillion21 Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I am going to get all the MH versions, if the toynami/beagle versions live up to my expectations i'll be happily broke Ditto!
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Yow, the beagle does look very good, i may just have to bite and get a couple then.
EXO Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 If it's as good as it looks, I hope Beagle does all four, I dont care if they did the black one but at least the main 4. I don't want anything like the Gakken where they only had Stick for the bigger version.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I feel now though the MHouse versions will be enough for me, for collecting the whole 4 (and two of the Saber and Houqets). Beagle however might be just worth one. But that's coz we have such a piddly little pic! Imagine high rez... oh boy...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 (edited) http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?act=...st&id=50698 Doesn't that pic of the group speeding towards us launching in the air like that make you crave to own MHouse in scale versions of the Jeep and even Legioss?? That would be huge though, 1/15 Legioss. *smirks* Edited March 16, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
Shun Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 pics comparing CMS and Megahouse's... http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread.php?tid=56848
misterryno Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 pics comparing CMS and Megahouse's... http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread.php?tid=56848 THANKS ALOT FOR THOSE!!! The larger size of the MH is a HUGE HUGE win for me.
promethuem5 Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Okay, based on those pics, I will admit that I think the back of the cycle needs to tuck in more in Ride Armor mode on the MegaHouse... there's just no way to do that bc/ of thow they did the engine folding away...
eriku Posted March 15, 2008 Author Posted March 15, 2008 pics comparing CMS and Megahouse's... http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread.php?tid=56848 Thanks, it's nice to see them side by side. I still like the overall look (proportions, design, colors, finish) of the CMs better.
Alpha OTS Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 pics comparing CMS and Megahouse's... http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread.php?tid=56848 Can definitely see why the CM can manage to stand on its own while the MH can't. But the paint difference between the two is huge. If the CM base color wasn't that light blue and was instead a blue-green like the MH, it'd look far better.
promethuem5 Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 The other thing is that when you have a MH in your hands, you realize just how much the matte-finish improves the look of the toy... the whole thing looks painted even tho it's not and gives of the veneer of a clean-finished model...

I'm with him on this one
Sam Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 lol yeh, you articulated somethin i couldn't. Looking at the MH pics i was quite 'meh' about it, but in hand it looks and feels great in comparison!

ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) http://www.xfai.com/MH/06.jpg WINAGE! Was only a few pages ago we were speculating how it wasn't possible for the Rider to be on with the storage packs loaded on the Ride Armour. Edited March 16, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 B T W, who here on the forums has the weapons pack?? Is it even listed on EvilBay yet? And who's got the decal sheet?
Shun Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) http://www.xfai.com/MH/06.jpg WINAGE! Was only a few pages ago we were speculating how it wasn't possible for the Rider to be on with the storage packs loaded on the Ride Armour. according to this post, the guy mentioned that he needed to do some small modification to move the storage boxes backwards. notice in the pics how much further back those storage boxes were. Still, i'd like to have the storage boxes for the other bikes, if only i can duplicate them Edited March 16, 2008 by Shun
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) Ohhhhh ok! Thanks for the correction Shun, i guess it can't be that hard to do the mod... Rey was always the "gofer" in the series. Stick was like the "hero" who travelled light and ready for action. Edited March 16, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
Scream Man Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 im actually not as fussed on the storage racks anyway. Am bummed about the stickes though. I love stickers.
Shun Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Ohhhhh ok! Thanks for the correction Shun, i guess it can't be that hard to do the mod... Rey was always the "gofer" in the series. Stick was like the "hero" who travelled light and ready for action. i don't know if the figure can't sit at all or if it just looks awkward with those boxes in the way. Hey! Stick and the others also always had the boxes too!~~~ They always just dropped off when transforming. and nooooo!! Rey was not gofer! He's the brains, and Stick had to perform the "hands-on". See? its the manager vs worker view (not that Rey could land a fighter properly anyway ) im actually not as fussed on the storage racks anyway. Am bummed about the stickes though. I love stickers. yeah hope someone scan their decals in hi-res, so he and the rest of us can duplicate it anyone kind enough to share? i want to dup the storage boxes too
