treatment Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) Alrighty! Thought somebody already made one, but here it goes... Apparently, Bandai's expanding the HM-R line to non-Macross mecha by offering the Dougram mechas under it, per Toysdaily post and mag-scan:2017年2月 [HI-METAL R] 太陽之牙 DOUGRAM - 日系英雄∕機械人 - Toysdaily 玩具日報 - Powered by Discuz! Details from the mag states: 2/2017 16cm (160mm) MSRP is 12800y ABS, POM So awesome! Hope the scaling will be a bit nicer than the 1/72 Maxfactory and the old Revoltechs with the HM-R Macross mecha. Macross mechas first, now Dougram mecha soon. Maybe VOTOMS,too? BRING IT, BANDAI!!! Edited February 7, 2017 by treatment title updated Quote
lechuck Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 At 16cm hight, that would make it exactly 1/60 scale. So would place nicely with Bandai DX and Arcadia Valks. Quote
calubin_175 Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 This looks more like SOC quality minus the die-cast. I really hope it is fully painted. It will be the pre-order madness item of the month for sure. Quote
no3Ljm Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Yes! This and Soltic is a must-buy for me. Hope they cover more from Xabungle, Galient, and Votoms. Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) IN...but I hope the diecast content is decent. Takara's 1/72 Dougram was one of my FAVORITE toys growing up. Edited September 21, 2016 by UN Spacy Quote
Mr Bomber Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 I thoughr hi metal was going ti focus only on macross. Id like to complete it all, but dont know for sure. Quote
Lorindor Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Cool! I bought the Revoltech recently, which was a disappointment (I should have waited...) I think I'll get this one instead. Quote
Professor Dire Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 At that price, Max Factory will keep me on as a customer. Quote
Sildani Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Hey! I can finally get a nice Shadow Hawk! Quote

Mazinger Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 I know it's a long shot, but as long as they are gonna mine some nostalgia, I'd love them to make a whole line of Mospeada mechs, especially Inbits. Quote

no3Ljm Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Y13824. Toys getting expensive everyday. Have to think about it now. Quote
warrhead Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 It says 160mm at the bottom of Tamashii page. If that's an indicator, then it would be 1/60ish scale. Sweet! Quote
koonfasa Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Awesome! The scaling for Battletech might not be as expected, the destroids most definitely. Been thinking a 1/72 Armoured Valk could look nice with these: Or the 1/72 Destroids with the HM-R. It's the iconic mech on the cover of the rulebook we all delved into, but I feel I just want one, ShadowHawk, Wolverine, Griffin, Griffin. Anyway these are going to be repainted to infinity compared to Macross, right? Quote
seti88 Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Y13824. Toys getting expensive everyday. Have to think about it now. Tell me about it. Multiple wallets have been shot down by macross lately. Perhaps bandai priced dougram higher in anticipation of limited numbers being sold to cover back the cost. At least its not a p-bandai..

Knowing that I was glad I didn't bought the Revoltech version back in the days, but seeing the price for the upcoming ones really threw me off. Now it's more of a question if I really need it. Quote
F360 Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 looks like preorder starts on 09-30-16 , the same as the DX SV-262Hs http://tamashii.jp/item/11579/ Quote

mechaninac Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 9,980¥ @ https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/18981-hi-metal-r-dougram.html Quote
maximusprime888 Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 AE has it for slightly cheaper. They'll make it up through shipping? Quote
mechaninac Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 ^ Possibly, but the biggest difference -- for those to whom such things are a deciding factor, like myself -- is that NY gives you a Pay Later option for this item; whereas, AE demands upfront payment with shipping calculated upon release. In addition, NY gives you the choice of invoicing in your currency of choice, which may come in handy if PayPal Credit is desired (an extra 6 months to pay on purchases over $99). Quote
Lorindor Posted October 1, 2016 Posted October 1, 2016 I caved in and bought one... NY's price was pretty good. Quote
Chet Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Surprised no one has said it yet. Dougram is B A C K. Quote
UN Spacy Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Apparently the Blue Gale from Xabungle is in the works. Quote
jenius Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 I've been watching Dougram for the first time,inspired by this release. I prefer Votoms but it's still quite watchable to me. Quote
no3Ljm Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) From Tamashii Nation 2016. Looks sweet. Edited November 2, 2016 by no3Ljm Quote
