logos Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) Like this one? Maybe a poll should be added to this thread. Are you a Battletech fan and are you going to buy the Tomahawk because it? If it is as detailed as the adds for it look I think I will leave it stock. Although a black and weathered Warhammer would be cool. Does anyone remember where the Black Widow symbol went on the mech?

Cache Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Are you a Battletech fan and are you going to buy the Tomahawk because it? yes. Does anyone remember where the Black Widow symbol went on the mech? i believe hers was mainly a red hourglass on the abdomen. the rest of the company had the Black Widow symbol on various locations.

Impreszive Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I miss the old Battletech days. I used to have a full Black Widow Company. I sold it. GAH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retracting Head Ter Ter Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 You can still find the Griffin (Roundfacer), Shadow Hawk (Dougram), Thunderbolt (Ironfoot), and Goliath (Crabgunner) 1/48 Fang of the Sun: Dougram kits all over the place. A 1/72 Marauder (Glaug) is a little more difficult to find but is still out there. They all match up beautifully with their 1/60th BattleTech counterparts. Don't forget the Locust from the Crusher Joe kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see me getting it cheaper any other way, after market it would probably be from ebay, and from the states shipping is ridiculously too high to get to me. I haven't come across an ebay seller to send it via SAL. If it gets lost what chances i have of a refund or replacement? Atleast i'll get my 5% discount, and shipped via SAL with hlj.com. Rather than spend an extra 20 bucks on shipping which would suck. Edited August 8, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonely Soldier Boy Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) We better make our minds quick on the destroid matter 'cause here comes the Defender Edit: How much would it be for shipping to the US if ordered from HLJ? I'm in Mexico City, but I just need an rough idea at this point. Edited August 8, 2008 by Lonely Soldier Boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron5864 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 These destroids by Yamato are actually very detailed. They are just as detailed as the old Imai model kits, but now are 1/60 in scale instead of 1/72. All this and not to mention being more poseable is a good reason for me to get one. But I am sure the price will be as high as their 1/60 Tomahawks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifbeat Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Considering the new Toynami Beta fighter cost $150, $80 isn't a bad price for this toy. Sure the beta transforms, but it's a wack looking thing without the alpha/legioss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
