Montarvillois Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I've read that the Koenig monster is supposed to be released on november 4th. Is this date still good. Usualy you can locate yamato releases from HK sellers on ebay days before the product is officialy launched but I can't see any occurences of the product so far. Does someone have the answer ?

zeo-mare Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 i do not know, I have seen tons of preorders for the MAX Qrau before it came out ,but have seen nothing for this yet. something tells me it has been delayed hopefully by next month it will be out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I don't think November is likely. Probably December or January. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kensei Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I think it'll come in next week. That's what Ken at Toy-Wave said. But i hope that it will be launched late too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montarvillois Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 (edited) Yamato has serious "poo, I missed my deadline" issues. If Yamato was run by the Yakuza were if you fail your boss, you have to cut a finger, product managers would now certainly be experts at manipulating stuff with their toes...

min Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 toysrus has a release date of 2004/12/30 on their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 (edited) It would be a miracle if the Monster came out on time. It's at the point that an extra month or two from their initial release date is little to no surprise, so I wager late Jan-late Feb for the Monster. In other "where is it" pondering, where's the VF-0? toysrus has a release date of 2004/12/30 on their site. That probably means they have no idea when it's coming.

Majestic Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 In the world of Yamato, the rule of "add four months to the release date" applies. I worship at the Yamato alter, but am still frustrated by their poor release estimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Personally, I don't mind....They can wait until January....-Kevin I can agree with that statement. My wallet could use the rest. Besides ordering a case of them and VF-1S reissues, I time to rebuild the cash reservoir. I will assume that most of you will too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do not disturb Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 i wish it would come out already. my macross addiction has me spending my hard earned cash on stupid macross stuff....yes stupid stuff that doesn't even TF. hopefully i'll be getting the max rau in the mail today to hold me over.....hopefully.

sleddogg83 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 If they actually use the time to improve the final product (no QC issues <crosses fingers>), then it will be time well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 If they actually use the time to improve the final product (no QC issues <crosses fingers>), then it will be time well spent. but they don't use the extra time for anything useful, that's the problem, they just delay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignacio Ocamica Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I don't mind waiting. Ever since I saw the lineart of the König Monster and the IHP rendition, I wished Yamato made this in toy form. At least we know it is coming. Always wanted a Garland and that one's also sure bet. I preordered one with Kev to be cautious with my spending but I know I'll buy at least one more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamion Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 How many people are buying the monster? Wonder if it's a good toy...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 (edited) I'm leaning towards getting one but I will probably wait for reviews of it before forking out the money. Now I wonder if they will make variantions of the monster and release different paint schemes? It kind of looks a little plain in the shots, so I wonder how it will look with stickers applied? I need something about this size for the banprestos to guard. Edited November 13, 2004 by 1/1 LowViz Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twich Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I pre-ordered mine from toy-wave when this toy was first announced...I hope that it comes out this year, as opposed to next year. Yeah, also when is the VF-0S supposed to come out? I have been waiting for what seems like ever for this toy. Twich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kensei Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Yeah, also when is the VF-0S supposed to come out? I have been waiting for what seems like ever for this toy. Well they revised the scuplt a couple of times, so expect around the first to second quarter of next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

promethuem5 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Man I hope so. I hope Yamato manages to use better sticker paper for these than on teh Valks....that crappy thick rubbery stuff blows.

I am sure someone on this site can make custom decals for it. , so is anyone on this site willing???? i think you can make some good money off of it, there are definatly a lot of people who would like some. i hope the monster comes out soon the longer it take the more likly hood of me running out of money for all of the stuff I want to buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anubis Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 At this point I'd be kind of happy if it's January for the Monster. Insurance (every 6 months due Dec), Auto Registration, DVD's, Christmas, and now the Yamato(?). My wallet needs at least a small break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
