So, Houquet release is optimistically December 2020 at the earliest? I think it just comes down to their factory and release schedule. This appears to happen a lot with Sentinel releases. Quote
Perxion Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 does anyone know anything about the legioss? Quote

Sentinel isn't a huge shop and they have a lot in the pipeline. A few delays like we've seen with Yellow's ride armor probably means a whole lot of reshuffling on their end. I did hear that Yellow was essentially made to order. It's possible that after they closed the order window a few retailers came back to them and asked for more stock so they decided to increase the production run. That happened with Stick and Ley and, in that instance, they did that second release a few months later. Quote

I don't know if maybe the person i bought it from had experienced issues before they sold it, but the thing literally fell to pieces when trying to transform to battloid. Like into 5 separate pieces. I've never used so much glue on anything before. Needless to say, it's "stuck" in battloid mode for good now. Shoulda just bought a super-posable darnit! It's a stinkin paperweight now. Ah well...... one more reason to hope & pray for the Sentinel model. Oh no. I’m scared to check mine. Haven’t unboxed it since I moved in 2009. Quote

I have a permanent Battloid and a really awesome box that it came with. I thought about it and I figure I could try changing it back to fighter mode in which case it’ll fall apart again and I’d have to glue it together into that mode BUT I could display it in or out of the box. So I’ve got THAT goin for me. Quote

jenius Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 Yeah, I have one that was a very similar experience to your own that I glued in fighter. Quote
jeniusornome Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 It's like a reverse model kit. You buy it assembled, it takes itself apart, and then you put it back together without instructions! It's a feature! Quote
magicsp00n Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Speaking of the Toynami Alphas, I recall reading way back in the day that the first 1500 (I think) units of Vol 1 were to have slightly differently colored intakes than the later units. Jenius has some good photos comparing vols 1-3 and it's clear 1 has brighter intakes, but I don't think I've ever seen a side-by-side to compare Vol 1 pre-1500 to post-1500, though. Can anyone confirm? Edited September 16, 2019 by magicsp00n Quote

Protoman Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Question for those who have the Toynami Masterpiece Alpha and Beta. I no longer have my stand for the Beta. Does anyone know of any other stands which are readily available that will work? Quote

teckno viking Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Damn the Military Uniform is a Pain to make at 1/12th scale LOL Still have a fair bit to do:- Collar, Yellow strips at Biceps and Collar front, Insignia is waiting to be added, Belt with Holster and of course Boots. Yeah I know NOT the right colours but will do. Was going to make Stick in Uniform but not sure to just create a general character and Have a little Artistic Licensing. Scary it shows How thin the torso actually Is on the Sentinel Riobot figure as the Crazyfigure are Slim figures to start with too. Though the Sentinel head fits the 1/12 Body I'm using pretty well with NO mods. Anyway wanted to share this so far either as Stick or just a General Military type Figure in uniform.

Hence making my own and with cloth uniform. Keep it with Sentinels style. Maybe kidzconcept are planning a segment of The robotech saga per HG resigning to keep their Ugly Thick fingered Hands in the pie. Quote

I really like what you did with the battroid back to fighter transformation. Amazing work, I wish i had a talent for 3D artwork. Did you develop the Legioss model based on a toy? The very low hanging chest in fighter mode is something that's always bugged me about most toys. Quote
varitechs Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Realy Exceptional.... I SHARE !!! Quote

Knight26 Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Gorgeous animation, Legioss model is definitely based on a toy, based on the proportions. Original Mospeada music would have been preferable. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 100% sure it's based on the IMAI Legioss. This animation is equally awesome as the cyclone animation Pablo did before. Quote

Perxion Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Jenius: I answer what you asked me before. The 3d legioss model is downloaded from Warehouse 3d from google sketch (it was free for a long time, isn´t available now). But I had to work hard on the model, because it was very badly polygonal. TheTread: was sent to me by a 3D printer modeler on Facebook. He also had a lot of polygonal work in 3dmax. A few pieces had to be remodeled for animation (approx. 35%). I don't know if the Legioss is based on a toy or not, but I worked a lot on remodeling so that it looked as close to an 80's cartoon shader. Thank you! Quote
