Gubaba Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Well hey - thanks man. I appreciate that! Glad I could help you out today... Right back atcha...! As you said (without hesistation, before I mentioned that people might take you seriously...which is exactly what ended up happening, but hey, don't mind me...): M O S P E A D A is B A C K!!! Quote
Gubaba Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Believe me, I don't mind you at all... Of course... why would you? Mospeada is back, right? SAY IT AGAIN!! Quote
Hoptimus Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 For some of us Mospeada never leaves it just disappears from the mainstream again.. Quote
DuelGundam2099 Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 I did not care for the anime that much, it just was not that interesting. It would have been better if they did not take 22 episodes to get to America. Quote
DarrinG Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Of course... why would you? Mospeada is back, right? SAY IT AGAIN!! You know - you're right. I need to say it again. But let me run by that disclaimer I've been working on and see if its enough for you. I don't want you to be thrown into an emotional free-fall ever again on account of me. Stay tuned...

JetJockey Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 So nothing Mospeada related came out recently? I was hoping for that big expensive thing that was hinted at. Quote

Mospeada is a trademark of Tatsunoko Productions. All rights reserved. Okay, I see the problem here. The problem is, I live (in 2013) in Tokyo, and no one here knows what Mospeada is. I haven't seen any new Mospeada items arrive since the CM versions came out. Although I like Mospeada, and I think its mecha and character designs were (and are) amazing, it was never popular in Japan. Heck, it was even cancelled before its proposed 39 episodes had finished. So, to me, living in something called "reality," for it to be "B A C K," it'd have to "A R R I V E" in the first place. That said, I really enjoy the show. It's a lot of fun. And it certainly had enough fans back in the day to prompt the creation of Love, Live, Alive... but I don't think it's well-remembered these days. Maybe I'm wrong. If I am, please post a picture of your recent Blowsperior, and I'll apologize and back off. Quote
jenius Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Well, a toy company was going to produce a new Mospeada toy, and they were going to show it at Winter Wonderfest, but then they decided not to. Soooooooooo, maybe it's back... maybe it's not. I think the announcement got bumped to Summer Wonderfest but that might be wishful thinking. Asking someone to post a picture of this is a bit demanding. Edited March 10, 2013 by jenius Quote
VF5SS Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 To be perfectly frank, it's getting pretty grating when members here post vague information about future merchandise. It's great that you know someone or know someone who knows someone who knows something and are just trying to keep the love alive. However, this kind of "maybe maybe not" schtick isn't getting us anywhere that idle speculation doesn't already. I want just the facts. I can read Cybergundam for toy teasers. Quote

Sandman Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 To be fair, the "i know a secret but i can't tell you" shtick is irritating even back on the playground during elementary school years. IMO if you know something that you can't say then don't mention it. Just my opinion. Not taking any sides. Quote

IMO if you know something that you can't say then don't mention it. Just my opinion. Not taking any sides. That's a sentiment I can certainly appreciate but there's a difference in context, things just didn't quite work out right this time around. What happens with this sort of stuff is that people start talking before announcements get made. They say things like "Hey, we're hoping to make a Mospeada-related announcement soon" to try to get a little attention so there's an audience when they do make the announcement. The buzzing that was happening here was with the understanding that an announcement was forthcoming. Then the announcement didn't happen. It not happening is all the more reason why it was good no one just said "Hey, company X is going to make toy A." What's the status of the project now? I have no idea but what you've gained from all this chatter is that a company was, at the very least, very interested in making a Mospeada product. Quote

I'm going to guess you are referring to the same source that also aloud your blog to announce that a Gosu was going to be produced years back, then they just went silent and never spoke of it again. It's best just to wait for the official announcement then chime in with what you knew about the product. Just my two cents based on bad experience. Quote
Smut Peddler Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I see where you all went wrong. You failed to remember the internet is for porn, not fact sharing, debating,QQing, revelations, religious experiences, etc....From the looks of the last few pages of this thread, not mospeada either j/k Quote
Tober Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 What's the point of the secrecy? If it's a Wonderfest exclusive it's not like there's going to be a heap of competition from rival sculptors... Is it? The Gosu didn't happen, and that's a shame. But it was interesting to know about, so I don't see the harm. And I guess I'd rather know that there is the potential for an expensive kit coming up, rather than find out too late to secure one or put the funds aside. Quote
EXO Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Oh dear, oh dear... Let it go, guys... What's the point of the secrecy? If it's a Wonderfest exclusive it's not like there's going to be a heap of competition from rival sculptors... Is it? What they said... You guys are not gonna implement a new rule so I don't see the point of debating it. Personally I found the debate whether or not Mospeada is back annoying but I didn't say anything because it's just a couple of guys ribbing each other. Suck it up and move on. Skip posts you don't like. Quote

Although admittedly you got more style points for your delivery. C'mon people, no harm no foul. If you don't like being teased with news, just adopt a "I'll believe it when I see it" mentality. GOSU!!!!! By the way, I thought I didn't announce a Gosu was on the way but rather I polled people for interest. I'm not sure how helpful it was and I think the post got deleted a long time ago Edited March 11, 2013 by jenius Quote

EXO Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Was it the one with the green metallic paint? I don't remember that poll. Was it in the other Mospeada thread? Quote

I'm not sure how helpful it was and I think the post got deleted a long time ago I didn't put up my comment for the sake of fun, it was more of a jab to somebody off the MW boards. I also waited till 5 hours prior to the event to post anything and not dropping hints three months prior; especially for something as non-existent in Japan these days, which Mospeada is. You don't remember writing: "Do you want enemy mecha??? I have a scoop for you". Again; just saying the best thing to do is just not say anything unless it's a for sure thing.

jenius Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) 2008? I was way off (when I looked for it). Still, I was asked to post about that stuff so I don't see what the problem is. I also posted that Beagle was dead and some people are still waiting for an "official notice." I didn't post any specifics, I said "I heard a company is going to make a Mospeada announcement at Wonderfest." It's not like I threw up a company name or something. I was wrong, can anyone really be that upset by that? Edit - Okay, that's definitely enough back and forth on this. If people dont' want to hear me teasing information, please ignore me. Easy peasy. Edited March 11, 2013 by jenius Quote
Twoducks Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I for one prefer teasing to nothing at all. Makes me have something to look forward too. Back when Wonderfest was on, I joked about the whole thing but I did have a very good time flexing my Japanese google-fu trying to find something. And if it ends up being vapourware, who gives a $hit, money saved for other stuff. At least we’ve had Mospeada toys (where is my hover tank and space chopper??) and it is not like we “need” expensive plastic to be happy . All I’m saying is “thanks” to all you people that keep this alive with your little teases. It is good fun in a time where people just expect the whole thing right of the bat with no foreplay to get the blood pumping first (yes the double meaning is on purpose, I’m tired of the over abundance of casting couch “lets get down to business you peace of meat” porn).

mechaninac Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 I saw this image on deviantART and just had to share. It's by LeElf. I haven't gone through all the pages to see if it's been posted before, but anything this cool deserves another go even if it has... Quote
coronadlux Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Thanks to Gakken85 for fanning the spark for the Alphas once again. I even pulled my Alpha out of the box it was hiding in. My Alpha has Mars Base stickers, while the new (new to me) one has Jupiter Base ones. Did these initially have 2 sets of stickers? Quote
jenius Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Anybody notice that it's easy to get an MPC Rand VR-52T on eBay for $100 right now. Jeesh, that's a nice mark down... I thought I got a deal when I paid $150. Quote
jenius Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Used to be my pride and joy... Seems like this topic could get merged with the Mospeada thread though. - Edited March 14, 2013 by jenius Quote
