jenius Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Oddly, the backpack lock doesn't work on my HMR toys but DOES work on my original HM toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never noticed a clicking lock on any of my HMRs but will check when I get a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) I plan on pulling out my max and milia soon so I will double check but I just did a review of the original super parts and know the lock worked on those toys. While doing that i tried the lock on my HMR Hik 1s and got no joy. Think i tried the HMR GBP and HMR Roy 1s as couldn't get the lock you engage either. Fortunately, all have very stiff backpack hinges. Edited May 25, 2017 by jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 anyone else have to use freakin HULK mode to get the damn hands off??? Mine are incredibly tight. I pulled so hard the upper part of the came off first and i dropped the Spartan as i wasn't expecting that..luckily, no damage. All the other arm/shoulder joints are medium tight.

Boobytrap Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Mine were a little tight but nothing too bad. Just a little tug and twist and they came off without issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvmacross Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Wow...they packed more gimmicks into the Spartan than I thought would be possible at this scale...or just simply for a Spartan!... HM-R(espect)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrov27 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 yeah - I sure hope that is just a lighting issue but the color in the pic is horrible - like purple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I thought we already had a first hand account that the color really is purple pink and not just lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Wonder where they are getting their source for the color.....these seem more white and less brown....but I do not see any "purple"....unless they fixated on the shadow lines...or are those camo stripes on this pic??? maybe from the movie version?

Kanedas Bike Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 ^Nice! Not a fan of the Spartan, but that's a kick-ass pose. (like a few others, I'm a Tomahawk guy too) -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using the stand with a trident arm because it is a little bit longer but it also works with the arm that was supplied with the Regult. Looking forward to everyone's display!

I don't have my Sparty, yet, so I don't know how long those tubes will hold your Sparty in that pose before those tubes' usual cracking/disintegration happens.

Atheonyirh Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 It's an Act-4 style solid arm, not Act-5 modular arm. It should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZorClone Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 mine is still in PW but I can tell from all the comments that just one Spartan isn't going to be enough... some great pics, all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Spartan looks amazing. Look forward to getting mine! I know I'm late in the game but holy crap is this thing good! And to think I almost didn't get one and thought I would be ok with it. I know all the rage right now is new, like the Spartan and the 31J Super Parts so here's some other new stuff that seems seriously underrated: These missile effects are so versatile and let you achieve the look we all have in our heads when we think about Macross. It's like a dream come true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
