Maybe you can make "art" by swirling the melted plastic colors together and sell it for something... Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Both of those look absolutely beautiful. Too bad about the inevitably crazy high price. Quote
Chronocidal Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I don't even know thing one about Mospeada, but that Legioss looks great, and I might try to grab one just to have one in my collection. Any shots of how far the feet stick out the back? Quote

I really hope they paint that shoulder armor red on Houquet and not leave it white like they did on the CM's version. Yeah, I know they aren't exactly supposed to be anime accurate, but I personally don't like the vest-like look. This looks so much better: Also, looks like someone forgot to add the wheel guard on the front wheel and the squiggly lines on the helmet face. Houquet looks a little THICC, but I suspect it's to balance out how the legs look in armored mode. 43 minutes ago, adugifever said: I hope the Bartley and Houquet are not finalized. I wish they can make Hoquet's heel a bit thicker so it doesn't look to much like a stiletto. Also, that G-A-P on the windshield... I'm hoping the gap is just a mistransformation. Lastly, am I correct in guessing the red-white Legioss versions are just updated prototypes of Stick's ride? Solid A-stance for the legs. Just need to see if the shoulder joints are strong enough to hold the weight of the arms fully stretched out, parallel to the ground. Edited July 28, 2019 by Mog Quote
505thAirborne Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I like the figure, looks pretty good not a big fan on the bike though, that windscreen is way off. Love the little plug for AnyMoon, nice touch. I truly hope ALL of these Mospeada toys sell really well because I am truly hoping that Sentinel will someday down the road produce the TV series style Ride-Armors. I like these but if I'm going to cough up some sizable cash I'd much more prefer the original style, I'll gladly go broke on multiples for those. Quote
sjoebarry Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Can someone enlighten me on what Genesis Breakers Mospeada 2083 means? Quote

Definitely closer to Toynami/Aoshima size than Evolution Toys, anyway. Quote

Definitely closer to Toynami/Aoshima size than Evolution Toys, anyway. Thanks, guess Sentinel wasn't as far ahead as we thought they were on their Legioss development. Regarding the sizes, I think I had this conversation with Jenius years ago in another thread. I believe he came to the consensus that the Toynami Alpha was around 1/51 or 1/52 scale. Too small for the 1/48 scale advertised by Aoshima, and too big for the 1/55 scale advertised by Toynami. Quote
jenius Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 To clarify on scale, there are officially stated stats that I've measured against and seems CMs and Toynami agreed on but they aren't consistently applied in the animation or the line art and there's line art that lists other sizes for the Legioss so it is always an imprecise science. Also, when toys are relatively small, all measurements are always approximate and can impact the scale calculation pretty easily. Quote

Tober Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Thanks for pics jenius and enphily! Is there any update to the release date or price for the legioss? Quote
Mog Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 ^^Welp, Yellow's supposed to be released late next month (August/possibly September). And we're guessing the Legioss is a pre-production test prototype. So, we still have a round of actual production photos to still get through. Are there any other Japanese toy conventions/festivals coming up before December? Maybe they can still make a December release date, or more likely, it gets pushed to 2020? Quote
blackconvoy_D01 Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 How does this coincide with the current Riobot Sentinel MOSPEADA offerings? And to @sjoebarry's question; what are breakers 2083? Quote
jorawar_b Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Hope we get a Sue Graham version or grab two bartley and custom make one of them. Quote

no3Ljm Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Yay! I’m loving these prototypes. I’m also glad they finally reverse the foot rest. How I wish they will include corrected thigh armors for Stig’s and Ley’s. Also, based on the photos provided, the Legioss and Ride Armors are going to share the same height. Not bad at all. I’m now thinking more like a Transformers Masterpiece size. Edited July 28, 2019 by no3Ljm Quote
no3Ljm Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I also noticed that they changed the arm armor shape, the wheel rim thickness, and Fuke’s feet compared to the illustration they provided prior. The illustration below still also shows the original foot rest placement. I’m really just glad it’s reverse now. Quote

Since they're missing the cloth coverings for the legs and arms, I wonder if they kept the arm armors off on purpose. EDIT: Regarding the footrests, I only hope they don't move too much when I pose Houquet on the bike. Yes, they reversed how they opened, but I hope that doesn't mean they're more prone to collapsing back closed. I wonder if the higher/deeper gap between the boot and the heel has something to do with the change. Edited July 28, 2019 by Mog Quote
DewPoint Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I would think that if you wanted to show off the joints, leaving off the cloth is one way of doing it. Quote
no3Ljm Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I didn’t notice this earlier but they somehow added a part that resembles a side mirror. I wonder where does that go since the side mirror portion (hand guard on Stig’s and Ley’s) tends to become the shoulder armor. Quote
enphily Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I'm little dissapointed, cause i liked illustration more than i saw on prototype Quote
enphily Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) I'm little dissapointed, cause i liked illustration more than i saw on prototype , I mean Fuke Edited July 28, 2019 by enphily Quote
Mog Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) My guess is the side mirrors/handlebar guards rotate up and become part of her shoulder armor. Probably lays on top of the existing shoulder armor she's already wearing. enphily, regarding Houquet, we have to remember that it's still an early prototype. Yellow went through some significant changes going from prototype to production version. So, let's just wait and see. Edited July 28, 2019 by Mog Quote

Probably, it’s just an addition afterwards knowing it wasn’t there in the illustration they provided before.

tekering Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I'm not loving those hinged panels hanging under the intakes in Armo-Diver mode, either. I imagine this Legioss will best be displayed in Fighter mode... 33 minutes ago, enphily said: ...but good Lord, the pilot looks huge in there! Quote
DewPoint Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 I would think that the seat should rotate for pilot comfort in armo-soldier mode. Seems a bit tight for that. Quote
enphily Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 In this Legioss whole cockpit rotate for soldier mode Quote
no3Ljm Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Wait. Where did we get the info that the cockpit does indeed rotates? Quote
DewPoint Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 OMG the pilot faces the ground in soldier mode! Not that it would really matter in space... Quote
