jenius Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) Probably the upgrade parts kit... My Legioss toys look the same. Too bad the upgrades weren't sold separately so all my toys could have them. Edited April 10, 2018 by jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comes with a weapons set, new intakes for the Legioss, new intakes for the Tread, extra hands, and a bracket to reinforce the Legioss/Tread connection.

tekering Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Had those upgrade kits been more readily available, I might've considered CM's Legioss... but without them, no sale. Those intakes are a ridiculous eyesore. Build quality is immaterial when the figure is such an aesthetic failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 It's not just an aesthetic failure, it's a failure in practically all respects except build quality. It's very poorly designed with limited articulation. The tread is decent though the scale on it is like 1/72... So bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDimensionalDave Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) As I understand it CMS became or at least most of CMS now works for Evoultion Toys. And true to form they continue with the same somewhat cool toys from great licenses that leave you scratching your head on major design elements or decisions. From the micro/non functional tabs on VF-2SS (for starters) to the nose tabs? on front of their Legioss. All their Dynamite Action toys are the same too. For example I recently bought their Getta Robo Go because it was on sale. Well it could be a great toy. I love the magnemo magnets as they play well with classic Takara magnemo microman toys and the classic Jeeg but again they made a stupid decision. Getta Robo Go is entirely blue. He has small red areas and green markings but is 98% blue. So he's molded in white and painted blue. BUT his small red bits are molded in red. So if you even look at him funny paint scrapes or flakes off. Complete mental impotence. Big Dai X same deal. 99% red, molded in black and painted red. And the paint is layered on so thick the chest doors that open to reveal weapon are painted shut. Never been able to pry open.

Ignacio Ocamica Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Yes, same guy that designed CM's Legioss designed ET's Legioss. ET's Legioss looks much more lineart accurate . It also has better articulation and locks better in fighter mode, but the CM's is built with better materials and has tampo markings.

sumyumgoy Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I'm hoping the visor will look like the original photos on release. The translation says: "The visor part is reproduced with clear parts and the mold is engraved on the back side." The photos look like the engraving is in front. Still looking forward to this as it'll be my first Mospeada figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechaninac Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I've stated this before: the visor shown in the original prototype and the production version have what appears to be the same or similar process in creating the HALO-like grid pattern we see; the difference, and it's a highly noticeable one at least in the pictures of the production version, is that the prototype had thin and shallow engraving which was subtle and looked great, while the final version's detail has deep and wide engraving that looks too thick and off-scale making the gird look garish. Maybe Sentinel thought that the prototype's didn't stand out enough and decided to go big and bold, which judging by the pictures was a terrible choice. It is what it is; there's no changing it now. I'm just hoping that it won't stand out so much under normal lighting conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duymon Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 If the mold is on the back then this is an easy fix. I'm just going to spray paint the front chrome and then clear blue. Problem solved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavenHawk Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Still a little surprised that we have no reviews of pre-release samples (not that every company does it, but I tend to find them encouraging to help believe that the release date it real).
