Roy Focker Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 It was a new untested company right? That's why I ordered through BBTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring on some more Macross Zentran figs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convectuoso Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Just got note from MEP that they found a less expensive shipping option to Chile and they wanted to know if I wanted it to use that. Seems like it'll be another couple of weeks of waiting for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh9000 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Congrats @Corrinald and @jvmacross and nice pics. Mine should now be coming in today. Can’t wait to buy Dolza, Exedore, Azonia, and Khyron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontus Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I love how the Japanese use bad english for names, especially in DBZ, but the Zentradi commanders seem to be mostly englishisms as well. Like Britain (not sure about Kridanik), Exdoll Form (a hint that they were giant "dolls" perhaps?), Bulldozer, Moruk(?) Lapis Lazuli (that might be a stretch). No idea about Quamzin tho other than possibly Kami Jin (person of spirit/god). Any other examples I'm not thinking of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh9000 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) Got my 2 Breetais. The plastic feels cheaper than a lot of other figures I have but it’s nice to finally have a decent looking figure that scales well with my HMR collection.

Mazinger Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 @sh9000 You are one brave, adventurous Macross fan to sacrifice an HMR to the gods of diorama building. I salute you and eagerly await progress pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 If anyone doesn't want their little ship they got with the Breetai, I will happily take it off your hands!

Slave IV Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I was going to refrain from comment since I know it is made by a fan, for fans and I respect that. The guy is a pure class act in that he had an issue with the original shipment, rejected the whole thing and had it redone and then offered to refund everyone partially for the delay. That being said, it is equivalent to a Happy Meal toy in terms of overall quality. It has universal shoulder joint, single elbow joint and ball joint wrists. The ball joint in the wrists started stretching when I tried to swap the hands out. Other than some hands, it comes with a HMR sized Hikaru figure on seat that I think is meant to work with the VF-1J in Battroid mode and a pipe weapon. Head is on a ball joint and legs have no articulation. People have commented on the shiny appearance of it. It’s not a great toy but I’ll say it doesn’t have to be because it looks the part and will go nicely in an HMR display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving an honest critique of a product isn't being disrespectful towards the creator. I would say not giving an honest appraisal would be disrespectful to the folks who might be interested in it. That said, I'll keep holding out hope for a Figuarts version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem and I would add that it's nice to have since it is not exactly a character that I need to have incredible articulation or quality. The sculpt is very nice. I'm not one to settle but this is a case where for the price and what it means to my collection overall (a mere supplement, almost accessory to my mecha), it'll do. If SHF finally makes theirs for consumption, I'll consume just because. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I want Khyron to be released next. I would love to do this setup if I had several figures like these to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharky Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Looks like BBTS is carrying forward the price reduction on Breetai. Pretty happy about that. I wasn't sure if they would, but I was hoping. Of course they do the old cheaper shipping but slightly higher price on the item ploy, but that's BBTS for you. But, were only talking a few bucks. No big deal. Edited January 16, 2020 by sharky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
