Shun Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Using Robotech talk, because I forget the Mospeada talk, there's a manned black tread in the Synchro cannon episode (the one with Sue Graham). The group gets to the scene of the battle just as it ends and you see a combined dark legioss tread for a split second and then it explodes. IIRC, there are no Betas at the battle for Reflex Point other than Scott's. yes, found it in the same episode - ep 23.
misterryno Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 yes, found it in the same episode - ep 23. Yep...that's the one were they group is just watching it and it just blows up.
Phyrox Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 If you look at the lineart for the unmanned legioss, there are simply too many changes to allow it transform into fighter mode without serious reworking. That one isn't going to happen. The dark legioss itself requires far less alteration.

jenius Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Curse my old video tapes drowning out the black treads in the blackness of space! Thanks for the screen caps of the unmanned treads.
Shun Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 http://wildcats.pupui.jp/mt/archives/2008/04/cms_.html so envious of all those treads in various colors noticed the first pic, he points out the inconsistency on the red tread that the JB = Jupiter Base but there's the triangular M mark which is for the Mars Base

I am envious as well. That's funny that they messed it up. So finally something to complain about with these guys. LOL.

Is there anything that could prevent the transformation? Appreciate if anyone could post the line art pics please? Also, does anyone have the "manned" dark legioss line art? notice the top of the thighs in that screen cap - it doesn't have that yellow thingy but i think Toynami's has it?
misterryno Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Tons of photos of the green legioss. http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread...;extra=page%3D1 Just got a chance to check this out. THANKS for the link!!! Those are some cool pics. I am happy that the instructions look somewhat understandable. I also am pleased with knowing that the red comes with mini Hoquetts. Soooooooo coooooooollll!!!

I don't know where to get the lineart but I did find this. and the manned one as well... I am not sure what yellow thingy you speak of. I am looking for it but I fail to see it.
misterryno Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 As far as I can tell....The feet, the chest, the intakes, and the shoulders are slightly different but that looks like it.
eriku Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 (edited) I just wanted to follow up a little and say that I'm still loving the crap out of my CMs set. It's so much fun and really a joy to transform and pose. Even though the sword is a very minor and basic accessory it really makes me happy that they included it. I think I have the Legioss holding the sword more often than it's gun. I just got one of those awesome Mononofu katanas as well and the Legioss really enjouys wielding it. I know it's rather idiosyncratic for a war-bot covered with missiles and guns to wield a sword, but what can I say, bots just look awesome with swords. Edited April 23, 2008 by eriku
Phyrox Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 The back is the key. Well, that and the chest tops...which will also cause a problem.
misterryno Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 The back is the key. Well, that and the chest tops...which will also cause a problem. I can't say I see these as a problem per say. With the CM selling as well as it is...they might as well just buck up and make the damned unmanned/drone legioss.

I am sure I will love mine too once I get it. I will need to look into getting one of those Katanas. Where did you get yours? Also...would you mind taking some pics of all these lovely poses you speak of and put them in the strike a pose thread? THANKS mate.

Where did you get yours? Also...would you mind taking some pics of all these lovely poses you speak of and put them in the strike a pose thread? THANKS mate. The easiest way to find them (that I know of) is to do a Ebay search for "Mononofu" and you'll see several different weapons that they make. Aside from katanas they have various other bladed weapons, staffs, helmets and even guns. They're not the cheapest accessories out there, but they're really damn nice. The swords have metal blades that are very straight and sharp. They also come with stands and other accessories. Here's a review for some of their stuff: Mononofu! I've been itching to take some photos of the Legioss and Tlead but I've been too busy. Hopefully I can this weekend.

The staff is my FAVORITE weapon!
Save Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) Yesterday I stopped by Over-Drve to pick up my Blue Leggioss set and as I walked in I saw stacks of the Blue, Green and Red all getting ready to ship out. What a sight to see! Still haven't decided to if I'm getting the Red set or not. The only bad thing was when I got home I noticed my Blue had a scratch on the arm that shows the while platic under the paint. Kind of bumed out, then today in Akihabara I checked out the new Leonardo toy shop and picked up the Stick and Rey MH Ride Armors for 1000ï¿¥ each. There were new in sealed boxes but the barcodes were scratched out so they must have been product samples. So that more than makes up for my scratched Blue Legioss....... well that's what I'm trying to convince myself of anyways. Edited April 24, 2008 by Save
Sam Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Im positive getting 2 ridearmours for the cost of 1/3 of ONE armour more than makes up for the scratch! lol. That is an awesome sight to behold, i only wish the green was normal price as well, pretty sure i would have nabbed it ... oh well!
Shun Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) wow 1000yen each for a Megahouse?!!?!? Are there anymore? grats on the great catch!! and thanks for the pics of those CM's Legioss + Tread.... so tempting.... coming late July, 5800yen Source: Walkermachine from Toysdaily Edited April 24, 2008 by Shun
Tober Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Excellent. That Blowsperior definately has openable chest missiles Thanks Shun
gilermo Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 That megahouse Lancer is Soooooooo tempting. I'm getting 2 for sure.
eyesonme78 Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 i will get the blue ! this time from Japan i shall order.
Kin Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Although I haven't got much time to create the paper legioss, I'm still brainstorming on how to create perfect transformation in all modes.. sketching etc.. The joints are moved only by folding a piece of strong cardboard. So no annoying cylindrical bar joints.
misterryno Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 THANKS to Save & Shun...I just wet myself multiple times! I CAN'T WAIT FOR YELLOW!!!
Save Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) THANKS to Save & Shun...I just wet myself multiple times! I CAN'T WAIT FOR YELLOW!!! No problem, now prepare to $h1T yourself. Looks like CM's still has more coming down the pike. The longer I live in Japan the worse my spelling gets. Edited April 24, 2008 by Save
crasis Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the pics, Shun and Save! I'm definitely looking forward to MH Yellow!! And NEW CMs/Beagle pics! Gah!! Now the question is, do I continue to collect BOTH MH and CMs...? Edited April 24, 2008 by crasis
misterryno Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 No problem, not prepare to $h1T yourself. Looks like CM's still have more coming down the pike. OMG!!! I DID JUST $HIT MYSELF!!! THANKS!!! At least the color is MUCH MUCH better than that of the Stick and Ley.
misterryno Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 ............. and if that wasn't enough. OOOOOOppppppsssss I crapped myself again This is gettin messy! WOW...Go Go Beagle Party!!! Sorry...after watching Genisis Climber Mospeada....that annoying Mint has gotten to me.
jenius Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Nice! I hope some of this stuff gets released in June so I can just pick it up while I'm over there
Shun Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 And NEW CMs/Beagle pics! Gah!! Now the question is, do I continue to collect BOTH MH and CMs...? yeah, i'm in a dilemma too... Megahouse is a must for me, but CM's.... not that sure. BTW @Saverobotech > why did Beagle show Rey's Mospeada variation? there's nothing there about having Rey's version right? and as for the dark legioss, there's no mention of the tread... i can see new parts for the head, shoulders, thighs, chest intakes, groin, and of cos new weapon. i guess CM's like small chests.... so many things to get, so little $$
misterryno Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 so many things to get, so little $ I feel ya on that I am limiting myself to MH for the Ride Armors unless I can get a Beagle for a steal. And I am not sure if I will even own the red or green Legioss/TREAD.
Chet Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Red and green will be optional, but then again, it's the optional items that will comman a high price few years down the road and CM Corp dun really come out with reissues.. i think.. Yes they do, and improved versions at that. Just ask people who collect their Gaogaigar and Patlabor Brave Gokin toys.
