EXO Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Well, a couple of us got here last night. I came down with Eternal D, Bobe-Patt, Solscud and Bigkid. We've met up with Egan Loo, KiriK and the AnimePunchers. I got to see the series pilot for Fringe, the new JJ Abrams show for FOX and it was awesome! The guys spent the entire preview night in the Hasbro Line getting the Nemesis Prime exclusives. I totally want this Hot Toys Iron Man! Quote
EXO Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 I can't believe how packed Preview Night was. If this was Preview night then I'm dreading today and even worse.... SATURDAY. Comicon, this year, sold out online, there won't be any on site registrations at all. It's amazing that they can sell that many tickets because there's over a hundred thousand people that's gonna be here. Quote
MilSpex Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Wow, looks like every franchise I loved in High School 15 years ago is still going strong today. Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Keep em coming EXO! I'm so sad I missed this years Con Quote
EXO Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 I'm glad you missed it! Thats one less person! haha. That's too bad man... I was looking forward to meeting you this time around.

Find me at the Dark Horse booth Quote
Shaggydog Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 (edited) I'm seeing some pix of the Toynami Betas. Cripes, how many years will they trot those out before releasing em? That said, any info on Bandai product (particularly 1/55 VF-1 reissues) being shown at the Toynami booth would be greatly appreciated. Edited July 24, 2008 by Shaggydog Quote
promethuem5 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 The HT IM fig is great, but nothing matters as much as the Heroes Reborn IronMan ML figure they showed!!! Quote
misterryno Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Okay okay.........can ANYONE tell me who makes those Street Fighter figs in the pics above? Quote
Dante74 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Okay okay.........can ANYONE tell me who makes those Street Fighter figs in the pics above? Probably a couple of poor factory workers somewhere in China. Wouldn't know what company they work for though. Quote
misterryno Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Probably a couple of poor factory workers somewhere in China. Wouldn't know what company they work for though. ............THANKS...............for nothing! Quote
promethuem5 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 I have successfully secured the Movie IM Mighty Mugg... hooray! Quote
EXO Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 I'll add comments to some of these later. as of now I'm just uploading pics. Quote
EXO Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 BEAGLE MOSPEADA MARKED AS ROBOECH MASTERPIECE Quote

wolfx Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Is that really the beagle and is it really being released by Toynami ??? Woah... And i see the CM's Legioss/Tread are being released by Toynami as well? Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) Yo Bro.......who is the maker of the SF figs? Yeah that cammy fig with material clothing.... that's sexy. Too bad she isn't poseable. TV Max 1A 1/100! 1/100(maybe) Regults! No way will i be buying more than one though... be nice if there was a pilot inside. And those Betas they aren't CM..... hmm. The link is different, and of course there is the shadow type, maybe i should look at my CM more and judge on differences, but it doesn't look like CM. Maybe it's coz i haven't decalled my legioss tread Zetas yet, can someone confirm it's CM? GBP-1S 1/100 looks great! Edited July 25, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
eugimon Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 wow, that's actually kinda cool the beagle ride armor is going to be released domestically. Loved the Danger Girl cosplayers! Quote
EXO Posted July 25, 2008 Author Posted July 25, 2008 THIS BEAGLE SAMPLE HAS THE TIRE TREADS... oops. caps, sorry... not about to retype. Quote
orguss01 Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Dont expect sympathy from EXO, check my WANTED Con t shirt thread... I'm glad you missed it! Thats one less person! haha. Quote
jenius Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) Wow, Toynami 1/100 Max TV VF-1A, 1/100 Regult/Battle Pod, POSSIBLY 1/100 Cannon Fodder GBP, and MPC Betas that look like they're made of plastic instead of resin? Some day Toynami might actually start producing toys again! If this were by any other company I'd be thrilled but as it is, I'm just very curious. Note - no shoulder missiles on the MPC Beta, just chest missiles. Edited July 25, 2008 by jenius Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 So beagle ride armor is really being released through toynami? Quote
will74 Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Wow, Toynami 1/100 Max TV VF-1A, 1/100 Regult/Battle Pod, POSSIBLY 1/100 Cannon Fodder GBP, and MPC Betas that look like they're made of plastic instead of resin? Some day Toynami might actually start producing toys again! If this were by any other company I'd be thrilled but as it is, I'm just very curious. Note - no shoulder missiles on the MPC Beta, just chest missiles. Another note- the beta cockpit is showing in robot mode not as nice as cm's in my opinion but, I hope it is ok so I can get one at least. Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Ahh good to see the little 1/100 get some gbp armor. It was a good idea for toynami to make small scale "toys" for those who want to touch their transforming valks imo. I think it would be good if Bandai made their own 1/100 VF-1 too. Just take away the chunky munky proportions, include the FP armor as default, sell it at the same price as the toynami valks. (while eliminating problems of the banpresto valks crappy "falling apart" syndrome) Quote
Wurz Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 was there preview night... finally got my 1/48 fast packs for my VF-1S Hikki... was holding off but the sight of it made me buy it *curse u impulse buying* will be back on Saturday and Sunday. Can't get off of work lol... What a waste of a Professional Pass... >.< Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 So if beagle ride armor is going to be getting official toynami release as a masterpiece, will this lessen the cost of them to those outside japan? I love the look of the beagle. Hopefully this toy can have some reasonable durability too. Personally I think it is the best looking of all the ride armors. Quote
