ruskiiVFaussie Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 something interesting - http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/viewthread.php?tid=84714
Save Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 After being ROYALLY SCREWED by Beagle--THANKS! How so?
derex3592 Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 How so? ummm....like giving us 2 out of 4. The 1st and 2nd release were like dreams come true for Mospeada fans. Fairly $$$, but totally worth it IMHO. AND the fact that we SAW the prototype for the Bartley and then just saw it go "POOF" into vaporware was just sad.
Chet Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 So technically if you order it black friday HLJ is supposedly having some kind of free shipping if you use paypal deal again. Sorry to go OT, but did this Black Friday sale materialize?
Totoro242 Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 ummm....like giving us 2 out of 4. The 1st and 2nd release were like dreams come true for Mospeada fans. Fairly $$$, but totally worth it IMHO. AND the fact that we SAW the prototype for the Bartley and then just saw it go "POOF" into vaporware was just sad. I suppose it depends on whether you are a "glass is half full" type of person or "glass is half empty" person. I guess I am a "glass is half full" person since I am glad that we got two awesome toys from Beagle/Toynami. Thats one more large Ride Armor than Gakken managed to release back when Mospeada originally aired.
Twoducks Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Finally opened my Beagle/Toynami Rand. Good god, this thing is beautiful! The engineering is FANTASTIC… the way the arm pistons works is pure genius. The cyclone is deliciously complicated and yet very sturdy. Love it. Houquet, I miss you now even more Sorry to go OT, but did this Black Friday sale materialize? Sadly for my wallet, yes.
Chet Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Really? Wow, can't believe I let that slip. Didn't notice anything on their site all of last week.
bluemax151 Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 HLJ sent me an email about it but there was nothing in stock I really wanted at the time. I preordered the trading figures and they already shipped. 22s are on preorder for Dec etc..
derex3592 Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) OK!!!....Got my MegaHouse Yellow today, and I gotta say, it's not a bad little toy. I emphasize the word "little". When you are use to Beagle size, this thing is tiny, lots of little parts that can easily get lost also. BUT having said that, I transformed it first time out, (and it comes with English instructions)....in about 15 minutes. The stand could be a little "tighter". May require just a drop of superglue to hold a permanent display pose. It's a fun little toy for less than $100...the non-helmeted head sculpt is pretty awesome too. One can only think how truly epic a Beagle one would have turned out...... ."sigh"......here are a few quick pics...notice the "Toynami" Logo on the box, in place of the "MegaHouse"....interesting.

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I'm still in hopes that MH makes a Houquet and Shinobu some day soon. After all there's no official word of the line being canceled as far as we know.
jenius Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 From what I've seen, toy companies NEVER release "official" word of any line being killed off. It's much better to just never talk about them again. There's also no real proper venue for an official announcement. They simply omit the line from their future release schedules and that's about as official as it ever gets.
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) Right. I've forgot about that. Bummer. I really wanted to make that camp diorama with all my Megahouses. Edited December 3, 2009 by Lonely Soldier Boy

It's much better to just never talk about them again. There's also no real proper venue for an official announcement.

On Space Station Liberty Kevin McKeever says he dose not believe MegaHouse is marking the ride armors anymore.
derex3592 Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 To bad. I would probably go back and buy the first two also, if I knew they would release a Bartley/Fuke at some point. Just to have 4 all in the same scale.....
jenius Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 Kevin McKeever saying something about what MegaHouse is doing doesn't really mean much though. He probably read it on something you've posted online Save.
Arthurius Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Can someone pls post a pic of the Beta in batroid mode and of a 1/48th Yamato VF-1. If you dont have the 1/48 vf-1, then a 1/60 VF-0, or 1/60 YF-19, which are abouty the same size. Thanks in advance.
Jasonc Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Seems like only time would tell if MH will continue or not. They did have the dark ride armor for sale recently on rt.com, but I don't know if that was a new release or not. I'm gonna assume that they aren't till I see a new ride armor. Hope for the best, but expect the worst, I guess.
jenius Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Arthurius, I posted pics on my site of the Aoshima Tread next to the Bandai 1/60 DX Ozma... there are also size comparisons of the 1/60 VF-25 and the 1/48 in different posts. Between the two you should be able to get some sort of a feel while you wait for someone to take that pic for you.
derex3592 Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) anyone? Dude, I so would, but ALL my Valks and stuff are packed up for my move in a couple of months.....sorry. Use Jenius's Website...lots of great pics!! oops! sorry for the double post. Edited December 8, 2009 by derex3592
RD Blade Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Use Jenius's Website...lots of great pics!! Good call.
DarrinG Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 I guess the link I'm posting is very exciting news for us Mospeada fans!!!! There is one important problem because the company involved (T-Rex), is the same company that made the limited accesories for the Beagle mospeada and the 1/60 v2 VF-1 Yamatos. Accesories only available at Wonderfest Articulated Mint figure by T-Rex? I'm completely iliterate when it comes to Japanese but the text below the last picture mentions something about CM's (anyone care to translate?): ふと横にあるフィグマのレイカちゃん見てあまりの美しさに落ち込む…。 そしてヤコログさんとこのCM'sのトレフィグのレビュー見てそこそこ可愛いのにまた凹む。 道は険しい。というかもう挫折しそう。 Judging by the size of the head in the first picture against the tools and keyboard it's bigger than the CM's figures, so it could be 1/10 and go along with Beagle figures. Mospeada not dead I'm not seeing anything on this link! h e l p p l e a s e
bluemax151 Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 I got my trading figures and it's one full set with the chase as expected. Not quite as nice as the Macross sets (although I think some of the figures come with the exact same stands) but pretty much on par with other trading figure sets I own or have handled. My Houquet doesn't stand well without support. Now I just have to eventually pick up the rest of the CM stuff to have in scale. I'm not going to lie, I'm totally not looking forward to that

DarrinG Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Was the T-Rex Annie figure just a joke or something? I still cannot find pics on that link . . .
Totoro242 Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Now I just have to eventually pick up the rest of the CM stuff to have in scale. I'm not going to lie, I'm totally not looking forward to that And pick up a Robotech Invid Shock Trooper since its roughly to scale
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Was the T-Rex Annie figure just a joke or something? I still cannot find pics on that link . . . The pics were there. They must have removed them for some reason (I hope it wasn't a legal one). Not much to see, actually. Just the face and a rough sculpt of the torso with a Revo joint on one shoulder. I wonder if somebody here grabbed those pics, but it looked like the figure was still a long way off.
DarrinG Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Yeah - If someone grabbed the annie figure pics post them! Let's see some pics of those CMs figures too . . .
Ignacio Ocamica Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Yeah - If someone grabbed the annie figure pics post them! Let's see some pics of those CMs figures too . . . I didn't grab the pics It was still a rough sculpt so I was waiting for more updates!! The link I posted was update #31, and now it's gone
bluemax151 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 And pick up a Robotech Invid Shock Trooper since its roughly to scale I have a scout somewhere and I've already thought of picking up a shock trooper but I dunno. I could borrow one if I ever really wanted to just take photos so we'll see.
Tober Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Does anyone have any links to what a completely dis-assembled Beagle Mospeada looks like? Especially the head with helmet parts. There was a post a while back showing one in bits for painting/weathering but I can't locate it anymore .
EXO Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 That was Yacolog's log... I'm not that great at navigating his site. But he had the production sample with the screw holes and everything... so it was easy for him to customize.

You wouldn't know how the helmet comes apart would you? Looks like the back piece slides off but I couldn't get it to budge

Looks like the back piece slides off but I couldn't get it to budge I tried... it's glued together... you have to pop it. I already messed up one set I dont know if I want to do that again with an expensive out of production toy
