Black Valkyrie Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Oh at last Houquet always liked her in Rider Armor.
protostar8 Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) Just noticed. Why is the right side hip plate solid black on the CM figures??? Is that how it's supposed to be or do you guys think it's a screw up and will be fixed by release? Edited November 24, 2007 by protostar8
Fort Max Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Guys, have a look at this post I saw on toyskingdom, it seems to show that the megahouse will have or may have available the hand weapons some of you were asking for. http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D2
miriya Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Looks like I will get the Megahouse and the CMs.

I had assumed that the Megahouse just had a solid sculpted head.

You aren't wrong.. u can see previous proto type pics has his visor being raised up. but i am not sure if it is removable.
Fort Max Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 I saw a pic somwhere of Megahouses's Stig without the helmet on at all, whether that means the helmet comes off or the whole head comes off remains to be seen.

What you got now CM?? Hah? Whats that? Same price and still can't add the extra hand weapons? tisk tisk tisk! Hope it's not a weapon package bought separately... anyone can read this? Edited November 25, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
UN Spacy Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Yup. I think I'm sticking the the Megahouse ones.

promethuem5 Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 I still don't understand how the CMs figs can be listed at such a high price... what's their justification?? Seems like such an un-competitive price should come back to bite them real quick when everyone goes for the MH version instead.
promethuem5 Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 You know, I really like where I feel the CMs Corp figure should fit in (small scale Microman style playable figure), but based on price point and such... that photo just doesn't favorably compare them. The MH figure blows the CMx one out of the water there... One thing tho, I noticed that the MH fig pics in armor mode don't show the legs extended... I hope they actually do on the figure, as it can look slightly goofy without the longer legs...

The person who took those pictures of the MH one messed up and extended the legs when the person had no armor on instead of when they had the armor on. I'm still wondering why CM's has a solid black hip armor piece. The pictures below are of MH Rei. Edited November 25, 2007 by protostar8
ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Dunno if the CM has or not, but the MHouse targetting display really smoothes this purchase off for me. I guess it's all about QC now... i'll happily pay more for the better QC, but i hope both will be perfect. I'll deffinently get one of the other, but MHouse's i'll complete the line.
Fort Max Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 I'm just gonna wait for someone rich to tell me which horse I should back!
ShadowerV2 Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Thanks to UN Spacy for that side by side pic. I prefer the sculpt of the Megahouse one. So only Megahouse will do for me.
sqidd Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Thanks to UN Spacy for that side by side pic. I prefer the sculpt of the Megahouse one. So only Megahouse will do for me. Another thanks from me. It looks like I will be getting the M-House one also. Does anyone know when they are due to be released?
promethuem5 Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 HLJ's got them as February, and they seem to usually be pretty accurate...
eriku Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 I still like CMs overall look better than MegaHouse. I guess the 'toy' vibe it gives off is what does it for me. It's not really that much of a competition in my eyes though since I'll be getting one from each company.
konimon Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 By the way, I've read at Yaco that those extra weapon set for Megahouse is a mail-away...
Scream Man Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Im leaning more and more towards the megahouse, I just wish the bike was a little bigger. So are the heads swappable are they? a helmeted one and a normal one? and do these things have much/any diecast?
eyesonme78 Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 well i dun think so there is much die cast, but more like saint seiya's stuff perhaps or fully plastic.. those soft ones
malakite Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 By the way, I've read at Yaco that those extra weapon set for Megahouse is a mail-away... Hmmm a mail-away? Any idea how we could get into that ?
protostar8 Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 By the way, I've read at Yaco that those extra weapon set for Megahouse is a mail-away... Well that sucks. I bet you have to buy both of their Ride Armors to get that too (or pay them extra). It's such a small thing that I'd rather make it then pay the $15-20 it would cost to get someone to help you get the mail away item.
EXO Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Well that sucks. I bet you have to buy both of their Ride Armors to get that too (or pay them extra). It's such a small thing that I'd rather make it then pay the $15-20 it would cost to get someone to help you get the mail away item. you dont' have to make it... someone here will buy it and recast it for the rest of us... haha. The CMs looks good again... it seems that the visor look big because that's the nature of small toys. if it was any smaller it'd probably be zip lock plastic bag thin. But I'd have to say, aside from that it's very well proportioned. Still too expensive though. They're definitely trying to hide the black hip guard... hopefully it's just for the preliminary shots... but if you notice, the lights, handlebars, hands and a bunch of other grey parts are molded in white so it seems like these are just test molds. It looks like the swing arm for the wheels are die cast... just like the old Gakkens. Interest in Toynami versions are sinking like a rock... the only way they can get me back would be to make 1/6 scale versions, haha. I'm still surprised they pulled off Voltron... I just realized I'm most active in this thread... I love me my Mospeada.

Funny that i am most active here too, i mean, YF-21 is the biggest thing i want now in my diplay, but i really do have a big love for Mospy. February will be a great month! Is it me or would the Megahouse version b better off with larger tyres??? For rider mode i mean. Edited November 26, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie
Ivan Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Somehow I think the Megahouse ones look too nice and good in the pictures to be the actual products. Also, the cyclone in bike mode doesn't seem to hold together very tightly. The CM ones appear to be more representative of the final products. They also look more sturdy. Ivan
eyesonme78 Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 CM corp's cyclone up for preorder already.. now that is fast... =)

Well, the sizes aren't that different at 1/15 to 1/18 so I wouldn't expect them to be that different in price. I'm actually surprised that the CMs is a bit cheaper than the Megahouse. Got mine preordered. Edited November 27, 2007 by eriku
eyesonme78 Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 pre-order price for Mega house was 5510.. still CM corp is more ex at 5700 yen
