Mog Posted June 21 Posted June 21 So, is the bike transformable. Or just extra parts to add armor to base figure? Quote
Big s Posted June 21 Posted June 21 Just now, Mog said: So, is the bike transformable. Or just extra parts to add armor to base figure? It’s moderoid, so more than likely somewhere between the two. Some parts will probably transform and others will probably swap out, but I guess we’ll find out soon Quote

Rhubarbarian Posted June 22 Posted June 22 Not sure if these have been posted before, but an HJWeb article came across my Twitter feed and it had some photos of the RIOBOT Tread combined with the Legioss: Quote
jenius Posted June 22 Posted June 22 At this point, the Tread appears to have become vaporware. Quote
505thAirborne Posted June 22 Posted June 22 Yeah, that Beta/Tread pic was posted some time ago, I remember because we all pointed out how the wings were installed upside down, the hard points are facing up. A shame to think that this may never see the light of day and the MPC will be your only option. I was still hoping for a Sentinel Dark Legioss too. Quote
electric indigo Posted June 27 Posted June 27 Shinji Aramaki posted his revision directions for the Wave kit. Quote

roboemo Posted June 29 Posted June 29 (edited) Another tweet on bike by Shinji Armaki. Edited June 29 by roboemo Quote
MKT Posted June 29 Posted June 29 It’s nice tidbit to know Aramaki was directly involved in Sentinel’s ride armor designs. I wonder if he also is involved at the same level with the Breaker armors.. Quote
Mog Posted June 29 Posted June 29 It’d be nice if all these sketches led to an announcement of the Sentinel Tread being finally released. Quote
MKT Posted June 29 Posted June 29 9 minutes ago, Mog said: It’d be nice if all these sketches led to an announcement of the Sentinel Tread being finally released. Gotta agree there. if Sentinel is not optimistic of the numbers for standalone release, perhaps they should release it as a set with the Legioss to mebbe get a bit more overall ROI. Quote
jenius Posted June 29 Posted June 29 Aramaki Shinji didn't design the Tread so that'd be an odd way to build hype. Quote
Mog Posted June 29 Posted June 29 Thanks for the additional info. I honestly didn’t know that he didn’t design the Tread. Quote
jenius Posted June 29 Posted June 29 Easy mistake since he did so many of the iconic Mecha, including the Legioss. The Tread was a late addition to appease the sponsor. I wonder if the Legioss design might have been a little different if it was planned from the beginning to have a Tread. Quote

Duymon Posted June 29 Posted June 29 (edited) Catching up on this thread, really excited for the Moderoid Ride Armors. Moderoid kits have been absolute fire lately. I've gotten their entire patlabor line as well as the Megazone 23 garland, Orguss Orgoroid and two Aestavalis kits and have liked every single one of them. Their quality about the same as Kotobukiya but they also use a softer plastic which is super easy to clean with a sharp knife. I hope the scale is something standard like 1/12 Edited June 29 by Duymon Quote

I hope the scale is something standard like 1/12 I’m with you on the moderoid kits. Love obsolete and all the attention they give Patlabor. I’m hoping the same attention goes to Mospeada. Not sure if it’s non scale or 1-12 though, I guess we’ll be finding out soon Quote

Exactly; the overall connection would have been much better. As it stands, I'm not a big fan of the Tread overall to begin with. Doesn't look like it can do much in Soldier mode other than stand there ans shoot missiles, TBH. Quote

Have you forgotten the Tread's moment of glory? https://youtu.be/FwkIohQUhr8?t=959 (apologies for the quality and the robotech-ness, it's the quickest link I could find) Quote
Mog Posted June 30 Posted June 30 Also, Stig hops into the Tread to take down that humanoid Inbit in the last battle. It just looks like a beast. Connecting to the Legioss is just icing on the proverbial cake. Quote
jenius Posted June 30 Posted June 30 I've always enjoyed the Tread (and still have my fingers crossed for the Sentinel). It just looks like it can take a punch (and deliver one). The only thing that kept it from being one of my favorites was how clunky it looked without the Legioss in bomber mode. If it were redesigned more in the vein of a B2 bomber (which debuted like 6 years after Mospeada was made), that could have been epic. Quote
Mog Posted June 30 Posted June 30 If Sentinel can just remove a lot of that gappy-ness the Toynami Beta has in bomber mode, integrate a full size cockpit for the transformation process, make the connections (PLURAL) more solid with the Legioss, and toss in some nice weapon accessories, it’ll be a bloody home run.

From this angle it looks somewhat like a flying wing design.. Quote
RavenHawk Posted July 1 Posted July 1 I'm still hoping for a regular one, and for the Bulldog too. But, truth be told, it's all about the DREAD... Quote

roboemo Posted July 9 Posted July 9 Wish there was official uniform (like one Stick wore) along with female in said uniform and maybe Jupiter or Saturn Base. Quote
Seto Kaiba Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Looks like it's already available for preorder on CD Japan and HLJ. Quote

Maybe some unseen artworks from old Mospeada anime could be printed...with this new saga Honestly...I hoped they could have asked some decent original settei in our community to put in the book...it would have been a pleasure to give some...to help... Too bad...too late... Next time...maybe Quote
