novaflo Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 dear CMs...IMPROVE the CONNECTION of legioss tread.. or go commit suicide like japanese executives who fail the company, just DO IT PLEASE!
jenius Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 A new gun and slightly larger intakes? Pass. That connection SUCKS in comparison with the Toynami... and the Toynami connection ain't perfect either.
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Larger intakes and an extra gun? Is that it? Pass again. Keep trying CM's.
novaflo Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 CM's..IF the connection is improved... with those intakes and weapons... I WILL BUY MANY!
emerson Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 CM's..IF the connection is improved... with those intakes and weapons... I WILL BUY MANY! Agreed. But I think if the connection WERE improved, CM's would be plastering the web with detailed photos. The connection was the biggest let-down, and pretty loudly vilified.
Vermillion21 Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 To much toys this year Amen brotha. Want 'em all - but can't afford 'em .... :(
novaflo Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 i hear gayporn pays pretty good!!.shshzzzJ/K.. that sucks....no pun intended
dizman Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 So we get a cool looking gun and some sorta bigger intake.... sounds like a deal to me. I hear selling semen is a fine way to make money these days for the people who can't afford all these toys.

novaflo Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 yaco's site shows a page that seems to say...the re-issue will about 2o,oooyen..only :$$200ish!!!! ...beats 300$
Mog Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 They're a lot lower on the production learning curve now, so they're incurring less costs, which means they can charge less for the combo. And yes, this is just a wild guess on my part.
Shun Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 if you guys notice in the previous pic, the sideview pic is probably to emphasize on the linkup. this new pic shows some of the improvements. including a little sensor/aiming scope for the gun.
SuperHobo Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Hmmm I wonder if that pic where it shows the hand and gun emphasizes if they put a peg for the hand to hold the gun better. Even if they did make the linkup better it still looks like poo.
novaflo Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) im on this like white on rice.. bring em on!!! Edited March 29, 2009 by novaflo
Vostok 7 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Posted March 29, 2009 Mmmmm. I happen to like CM's "made up" Leigoss and their TREAD too, and the new heavy machine gun just seals the deal. I'll probably get at least one of the new sets. Vostok 7
Chet Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 CM's should've taken this opportunity to improve the link-up. When their Tread was still the only game in town, its understandable that they settled for that mess they call a link-up mechanism. But with the glowing reviews for Toynami's Beta and the possibility of seeing them bundled in giftsets together with improved Alphas, CM's may be left with stacks upon stacks of unsold "improved" Legioss/Tread combos. Perhaps CM's should have approached this reissue in the same way they handled their GaoGaiGar V. 2.0.
RD Blade Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 It would've been wiser (not to mention more cost-effective) to simply release the machine gun and an improved link-up as an add-on kit for their existing Legioss/Tread.
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 If the linkup has been improved (as the pic above seems to suggest), then I might get a combo. 200 is a lot better than 300. Still a bit steep for this particular toy, but a lot better.
eriku Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Grr...I'm tempted to sell my Blue CMs set in favor of this new set. Not for the chest intakes or link up improvements, just for that sweet new gun. I really do love the CMs set, it's been a constant source of fun since I got it upon release and has held up perfectly over the last year. Great little toy.
jenius Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Nothing really exciting to report but I got a new post up on my site: Anyone considering purchasing this toy should definitely check it out.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) Be nice if they sold corrective link up separately for the good people who already invested in their first release.. like me. : / I'll be saving for a Red tread/Beta Toynami, CM you already got a taste of my money! lol Beagle are in line to steal my money with Houquet.... Megahouse died? soo slow. I want Houquet t finish off the squad.. well actually we'd need Mint and whatshisface and his jeep! Edited March 30, 2009 by ruskiiVFaussie
Mog Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I know I shouldn't be an ass about the "improvements" to the CMs. BUT... Why didn't they improve the Legioss by making its head be able to turn left and right? And for the fighter combo, they can say they that they reduced the gap between the two parts, but there's still two other glaring flaws remaining in their improved combo: Again, I'll give them the gatling gun. But I'm happy with what I got with my Toynami (engineered by Aoshima) Betas.
Shun Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Again, I'll give them the gatling gun. But I'm happy with what I got with my Toynami (engineered by Aoshima) Betas. but are you happy with your Alphas? @ jenius - thanks for the review. surprised that you didn't mention bigger tyres, or did i miss it? yup still waiting for my Megahouse Houquet, Jim and Mint
novaflo Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 yeah where is MegaHouse??? if they poop out and don't produce the fuke:........ i'l just scream...!!! .and then say :FIdDLesticks!! because, i got my BEAGLE FUKE!!!!!!!!!!! ...beagle can just have MH's $$$$MONeY$$$$$$$!!!..i'll buy extra beagles if no meghus fuke's too distract me. so hurry up megahouse!..as if u read these boards i hope they show at least a prototype soon...
Mog Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) but are you happy with your Alphas? I'll be the first to point out all the very annoying flaws on the Alpha, no doubt. I'd kill for some ratchet joints and some ball-jointed hips on the Alphas. But c'mon, when you combine these two birds together, they make one sexy bitch! Edited March 30, 2009 by Mog
jenius Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 @ jenius - thanks for the review. surprised that you didn't mention bigger tyres, or did i miss it? I didn't mention them but I provided lots of pics. Honestly, I'm so let down with the MH Ride Armors now I was just kind of going through the paces.
novaflo Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 yeah ..i thought the first megahouse ride pics i saw were a joke..or fan scratchbuilt!!!!!! it's almost like they actually TRIED to make them suk!! ..the front of the bike? ...c'mon now.. blowsup was a bit improved but the mech mode is ghastly! ..the boots are way tooo short..chest too huge:ph34r: yuk. yet,i bought 'em any...cause i'm a sucker for mospeada. personally,, i'm hoping they viscously beat the sculptor till he is within inches of death..then nurse him back too health..only beat him more viciously until expiration..ect.. and hire the beagle sculpt team for a decent fuke!
boota Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Personally, I was hoping Beagle's sculptor gets beaten for the current sculpt that is Fuke.
novaflo Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Personally, I was hoping Beagle's sculptor gets beaten for the current sculpt that is Fuke. ok...but look at the nose that megahouse stick/ley bike..whatthf@)k??? admit:the beagle's fuke nose needs less pointy shape.. ...also:2 high up position in mech mode making the arms look 2 low + cant see her shoulder pad sticking out.. so,,ok lets give the beagle team a terrible beating so they shape it up!!!!!!!!! eathe fuke is a prototype thou.. ...im staring at but ugly megahouse in my home..uughghh
gilermo Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Thanks for the review jenius. I have to admit, sinds Beagle is here i have lost any and all interest in CM and MH ride armors. I am getting all the Beagle versions, dropping all the CM and MH.
gilermo Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 If the linkup has been improved (as the pic above seems to suggest), then I might get a combo. 200 is a lot better than 300. Still a bit steep for this particular toy, but a lot better. I was initially very happy with my CM legioss-tread combo. unfortunately this did not last long. Very poor linkup, strange looking soldier mode, overall different disign (not like the line art) and the way-to-steep price. Made me lose interest in this toy. The Toynami version looks so much beter. even $200 would probably not convince me. (i can buy a mint box gakken ride armor or blue legioss for that money).
DarrinG Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 i hear gayporn pays pretty good!!.shshzzzJ/K.. that sucks....no pun intended Please don't post comments like this. Not only is it stupid its against the rules. Thanks
